New airport tech – level 1
14-08-2025 07:00
There are many people and planes at airports. Airports want to use new cars. These cars are autonomous, which means that they drive by themselves.
These cars can take luggage from one place to another. The cars have cameras and tools to see around them. They stop if something is in front of them. Airports are very busy places. It is not easy to use these cars there. The airport must check if the cars are safe.
People will want many cars like this by the year 2050. It will take a long time because airports must keep all people safe. Even if cars that drive by themselves are on roads, airports need more time to be sure.
Difficult words: luggage (bags or suitcases which you carry when you travel), tool (something you use to help do a job or task).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
