Autopilot

This exciting new exhibition shows innovative examples of autonomous, drone, monitoring, and data gathering technology from within the MOTAT collection, including the newly acquired Wisk Generation 5 Cora which has been running test flights in Aotearoa as the makers develop an autonomous eVTOL air taxi.

Come and explore how drone, autonomous, and monitoring technology is used in different ways - from conservation to transport - and take a flight across Tāmaki Makaurau with no pilot on board, just your VR headset.
