1 . TWO NEWS REPORTS

NEWS REPORT 1

Even before 5G is widely commercially available, Chinese telecom giant Huawei has reportedly begun researching the next generation of wireless technology—6G.

Tech website “iPhone in Canada” reported that Huawei has confirmed to local media “The Logic (逻辑学；逻辑性)” that it has started researching 6G technology at its lab in Ottawa, Canada and “is in talks with Canadian university researchers about working on development of the next-generation wireless system,” citing a report by The Logic.

Song Zhang, vice-president of research strategy and partnership of Huawei in Canada, said “5G is very new_, and looking at 6G is part of the so-called 5G evolution.”

Huawei has not commented on the report, according to The Paper.

NEWS REPORT 2

A Japanese startup called SkyDrive Inc. has begun conducting test flights of their prototype flying car with a human pilot.

The company hopes to be able to make a full public demonstration (演示；展示) of the vehicle later this summer.

The test flights are being conducted at a protected indoor facility at the company’s research flight center outside of Nagoya.

There have been a number of previous test flights, but they were all conducted via remote control and no human pilot on-board.

According to a report in The Asahi Shimbun, SkyDrive says the car could be ready for a limited retail release as early as 2023, and mass production by 2026.

SkyDrive was founded by former engineers from Toyota and they intend their vehicle to be the world’s smallest flying car.

In 2017, Toyota gave the company an infusion (灌输) of around $ 350,000 to help develop flying vehicles.

The company said it won’t say more about how the test flights have been proceeding (行动；进行) so far, but says things are going well enough to continue making them.
