Ground sensors will be placed along the highway, the data of which will be used by the control system to prevent collisions.
The UK is building the world’s largest drone airway, 264 kilometers long. More than £ 12 million will be allocated for this, according to the BBC.
It was noted that the Skynet project should be implemented within the next two years. The highway will connect the English cities of Reading, Oxford, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, Coventry and Rugby.
The technology uses ground-based sensors installed along the highway, allowing you to see in real time where drones are located in airspace. This data is analyzed by a traffic management system – a type of air traffic control system for drones – that directs them on routes and prevents collisions between them.
It was noted that Skynet is part of the British government’s aerospace funding package, which will receive a total of £ 273 million.
Other projects receiving funding include drones that will deliver mail to the Isles of Scilly and medicine across Scotland.
Earlier it was reported that the Russian Federation began using Belarusian kamikaze drones in Ukraine.
