Paul Moller: Take a ride in the Skycar

Prevodilac: Miloš Vodogaz Lektor: Ivana Korom

Many of you could ask the question, you know,

Mnogi od vas bi mogli pitati,

why is a flying car, or maybe more accurately,

zbog čega je leteći automobil ili možda preciznije rečeno,

a roadable aircraft, possible at this time?

putna letelica, ostvariva u ovom trenutku?

A number of years ago,

Pre mnogo godina,

Mr. Ford predicted that flying cars

gospodin Ford je predvideo da će leteći autombili

of some form would be available.

u nekom obliku biti dostupni.

Now, 60 years later,

Sada, 60 godina kasnije,

I'm here to tell you why it's possible.

ovde sam da bih vam rekao zašto je to moguće.

When I was about five years old,

Kada sam imao oko pet godina,

not very much -- about a year after

ne mnogo, oko godinu nakon što je

Mr. Ford made his predictions,

gospodin Ford izrekao svoje predviđanje,

I was living in a rural part of Canada,

živeo sam u ruralnom delu Kanade,

on the side of a mountain in a very isolated area.

na strani planine u veoma izolovanom području.

Getting to school, for a kid that was actually pretty short for his age,

Odlazak u školu za klinca koji je prilično nizak za svoje godine,

through the Canadian winter, was not a pleasant experience.

kroz kanadsku zimu, nije bilo prijatno iskustvo.

It was a trying and scary thing

Za jedno dete je bilo naporno

for a young kid to be going through.

i zastrašujuće da prolazi kroz to.

At the end of my first year in school, in the summer of that year,

Na kraju moje prve školske godine, na leto,

I discovered a couple hummingbirds

pronašao sam par kolibrija

that were caught in a shed near my home.

koji su bili zarobljeni u šupi blizu moje kuće.

They'd worn themselves out,

Oni su se iscrpeli,

beating themselves against the window,

udarajući o prozor,

and, well, they were easy to capture.

i naravno, bilo ih je lako uhvatiti.

I took them outside and as I let them go, that split second, even though they were very tired,

Izneo sam ih napolje i pustio, i istog momenta, iako su bili veoma iscrpljeni,

that second I let them go they hovered for a second,

odleteli su čim sam ih pustio,

then zipped off into the distance.

a zatim su klisnuli u daljinu.

I thought, what a great way to get to school.

Pomislio sam, kakav dobar način da odete u školu.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

For a kid at that age, this was like infinite speed, disappearing,

Za klinca tih godina, to je bila neograničena brzina nestajanja,

and I was very inspired by that.

i bio sam veoma inspirisan time.

And so the next -- over the next

I tako sledećih -- tokom sledećih

six decades, believe it or not,

šest decenija, verovali ili ne,

I've built a number of aircraft,

konstruisao sam brojne letelice,

with the goal of creating something that could do for you, or me,

sa ciljem stvaranja nečega što bi za vas ili mene

what the hummingbird does,

radilo ono što rade kolibri

and give you that flexibility.

i što bi vam dalo tu fleksibilnost.

I've called this vehicle, generically, a volantor,

Nazvao sam ovo vozilo, uopšteno, volantor,

after the Latin word "volant," meaning,

prema latinskoj reči "volant", što znači,

to fly in a light, nimble manner.

leteti na lagan, okretan način.

Volantor-like helicopter, perhaps.

Volantor - verovatno kao helikopter.

The FAA, the controlling body above all,

Federalna Avio-Administracija, regulatorno telo iznad svega,

calls it a "powered lift aircraft."

nazvalo ga je "letelica sa podizanjem".

And they've actually issued a pilot's license --

I zapravo su nam izdali pilotsku dozvolu --

a powerlift pilot's license -- for this type of aircraft.

pilotsku dozvolu za letenje -- za ovaj tip letelice.

It's closer than you think. It's kind of remarkable when you consider that

Bliže je nego što mislite. Na neki način to je neobično kada uzmete u obzir

there are no operational powered lift aircraft.

da ne postoji funkcionalna letelica ovog tipa.

So for once, perhaps, the government is ahead of itself.

I tako bar jedanput, možda, je vlast bila ispred sebe.

The press calls my particular volantor a "Skycar."

Novinari su nazvali ovaj volantor " Leteći automobil".

This is a little bit earlier version of it,

Ovo je nešto ranija verzija,

that's why it's given the X designation,

i zbog toga mu je data namena X,

but it's a four-passenger aircraft

ali to je letelica za četiri putnika

that could take off vertically, like a helicopter --

koja bi mogla uzleteti vertikalno, kao helikopter --

therefore it doesn't need an airfield.

stoga ne treba aerodrom.

On the ground, it's powered electrically.

Na zemlji koristi električni pogon.

It's actually classified as a motorcycle

Zapravo su ga klasifikovali kao motocikl

because of the three wheels, which is a great asset

zbog tri točka, što je velika prednost,

because it allows you, theoretically, to use this on the highways

jer vam omogućava, teoretski, da ga koristite na auto-putevima

in most states, and actually in all cities.

u većini država i zapravo u svim gradovima.

So that's an asset because if you've got to deal with the crash protection issues

Ovo je prednost, jer ukoliko morate da se suočite sa problemima zaštite pri sudaru

of the automobile, forget it -- you're never going to fly it.

automobila, zaboravite -- nikad nećete poleteti.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

One could say that a helicopter

Neko bi mogao reći da helikopter

does pretty much what the hummingbird does,

radi prilično isto što rade i kolibri,

and gets around in much the same way, and it's true,

i da se kreće na isti način, to je istina,

but a helicopter is a very complex device.

ali helikopter je veoma kompleksna letelica.

It's expensive --

Skup je -- toliko skup,

so expensive that very few people could own or use it.

da svega nekoliko ljudi mogu da koriste i poseduju sopstveni helikopter.

It's often been described because of its fragile nature and its complexity,

Zbog svoje krhke prirode i kompleksnosti, često se opisuje

as a series of parts -- a large number of parts --

kao niz delova -- veliki broj delova --

flying in formation.

koji leti u formaciji.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Another difference, and I have to describe this,

Još jedna razlika, ovo moram da spomenem,

because it's very personal,

jer je veoma lično,

another great difference between the helicopter

još jedna velika razlika između helikoptera

and the volantor --

i volantora --

in my case the Skycar volantor --

u mom slučaju letećeg automobila --

is the experience that I've had

je iskustvo koje sam imao

in flying both of those.

upravljajući obema letelicama.

In a helicopter you feel -- and it's still a remarkable sensation --

U helikopteru se osećate -- što je i dalje neverovatan doživljaj --

you feel like you're being hauled up from above

kao da vas je podigao

by a vibrating crane.

vibrirajući kran.

When you get in the Skycar -- and I can tell you,

Kada sednete u leteći automobil -- mogu vam reći,

there's only one other person that's flown it, but he had the same sensation --

postoji još jedna osoba koja je njime letela, ali je imala isti doživljaj --

you really feel like you're being lifted up

osećate se kao da vas je podigao

by a magic carpet,

magični tepih,

without any vibration whatsoever. The sensation is unbelievable.

bez ikakvih vibracija. Osećaj je neverovatan.

And it's been a great motivator.

I to je sjajan motivator.

I only get to fly this vehicle occasionally,

Samo povremeno letim ovim vozilom,

and only when I can persuade my stockholders

jedino kada uspem da ubedim moje deoničare

to let me do so,

da mi dopuste,

but it's still one of those wonderful experiences

ali to je i dalje jedno od onih čudesnih iskustava

that reward you for all that time.

koja vas nagrađuju za svo to vreme.

What we really need is something to replace the automobile

Ono što zaista trebamo je nešto što će zameniti automobile

for those 50-plus mile trips.

za ona putovanja preko 80 kilometara.

Very few people realize that 50 mile-plus trips

Svega nekoliko ljudi uviđa da ova putovanja

make up 85 percent of the miles traveled in America.

čine 85 procenata kilometraže pređene u Americi.

If we can get rid of that,

Ako se možemo otarasiti toga,

then the highways will now be useful to you,

tada će auto-putevi biti korisni za vas,

as contrasted by what's happening

kao pandan onome što se danas događa

in many parts of the world today.

u mnogim delovima sveta.

On this next slide, is an interesting history

Na sledećem slajdu, nalazi se zanimljiva istorija

of what we really have seen in infrastructure,

onoga što smo zaista videli u infrastrukturi,

because whether I give you a perfect Skycar,

jer bilo da vam dam prefektan leteći automobil,

the perfect vehicle for use, it's going to have very little value to you

perfektno vozilo za upotrebu, za vas će ono imati veoma malu vrednost

unless you've got a system to use it in.

osim ako dobijete i sistem u kome ćete ga koristiti.

I'm sure any of you have asked the question,

Siguran sam da je svako od vas postavio pitanje,

yeah, are there great things up there -- what am I going to do, get up there?

da, jesu li tamo gore sjajne stvari -- šta da radim, da se popnem?

It's bad enough on a highway, what's it going to be like to be in the air?

Dovoljno je loše na auto-putu, kako će izgledati kad budem u vazduhu?

This world that you're going to be talking about tomorrow

Taj svet o kome ćete sutra govoriti

is going to be completely integrated. You're not going to be a pilot,

će biti u potpunosti integrisan. Vi nećete biti pilot,

you're going to be a passenger.

bićete putnik.

And it's the infrastructure that really determines whether this process goes forward.

Infrastruktura je ta koja zapravo određuje da li ovaj proces napreduje.

I can tell you, technically we can build Skycars --

Mogu vam reći, tehnički, možemo konstruisati leteće automobile

my God, we went to the moon!

moj bože, otišli smo na mesec!

The technology there was much more difficult than what I'm dealing with here.

Ta tehnologija je mnogo komplikovanija od one sa kojom ja ovde radim.

But we have to have these priority changes,

Ali moramo promeniti prioritete,

we have to have infrastructure to go with this.

moramo imati infrastrukturu koja ide uz to.

Historically you see that we got around

Istorijski, videćete da smo se pre

200 years ago by canals,

200 godina kretali kanalima,

and as that system disappeared, were replaced by railroads.

a kada je taj sistem nestao, zamenili smo ga železnicom.

As that disappeared we came in with highways.

Kada je to nestalo nastupili smo sa auto-putevima.

But if you look at that top corner -- the highway system --

Ali ako obratite pažnju -- na sistem auto-puteva --

you see where we are today. Highways are no longer being built,

videćete gde smo danas. Auto-putevi se više ne grade,

and that's a fact. You won't see any additional highways

i to je činjenica. Nećete videti nikakve dodatne auto-puteve

in the next 10 years.

u sledećih 10 godina.

However, the next 10 years, if like the last 10 years,

Međutim, u sledećih 10 godina, kao i zadnjih 10 godina,

we're going to see 30 percent more traffic.

imaćemo 30 procenata više saobraćaja.

And where is that going to lead you to?

I gde će vas ovo dovesti?

So the issue then, I've often asked, is

Tako da ptanje, koje ja stalno postavljam, je

when is it going to happen?

kada će se to desiti?

When are we going to be able to have these vehicles?

Kada ćemo moći da imamo ovakva vozila?

And of course, if you ask me, I'm going to give you a really optimistic view.

Naravno, ako mene pitate, daću vam prilično optimističan pogled.

After all, I've been spending 60 years here believing it's going to happen tomorrow.

Pored svega, ja sam proveo 60 godina verujući da će se to desiti sutra.

So, I'm not going to quote myself on this.

Neću sam sebe citirati ovde.

I'd prefer to quote someone else,

Više volim da citiram nekog drugog,

who testified with me before Congress,

ko je svedočio sa mnom pred Kongresom,

and in his position as head of NASA

i kao šef NASA-e

put forward this particular vision

pogurao ovu viziju

of the future of this type of aircraft.

budućnosti ovog tipa letelice.

Now I would argue, actually, if you look at the fact that on the highways today,

Možemo raspraviti, ali ako pogledate činjenicu da se danas

you're only averaging about 30 miles per hour --

na auto-putevima krećete u proseku 48 km/h --

on average, according to the DOT --

prema Ministarstvu transporta --

the Skycar travels at over 300 miles an hour,

leteći automobil se kreće preko 480 km/h,

up to 25,000 feet.

sve do 7600 metara visine.

And so, in effect, you could see perhaps a tenfold increase

I tako, mogli biste možda videti desetostruko povećanje

in the ability to get around

u sposobnosti kretanja

as far as speed is concerned.

što se tiče brzine.

Unbeknownst to many of you,

Bez znanja mnogih od vas,

the highway in the sky that I'm talking about here

auto-put na nebu, o kome ovde govorim

has been under construction for 10 years.

je pod izgradnjom 10 godina.

It makes use of the GPS -- you're familiar with GPS in your automobile,

To omogućava korišćenje GPS-a -- upoznati ste sa GPS-om u vašim automobilima,

but you may not be familiar with the fact that there's a GPS U.S.,

ali možda niste upoznati sa činjenicom da postoji američki GPS,

there's a Russian GPS,

postoji ruski GPS,

and there's a new GPS system

i postoji novi GPS sistem

going to Europe, called Galileo.

iz Evrope koji se zove Galileo.

With those three systems,

Sa ova tri sistema

you have what is always necessary --

imate ono što je stalno neophodno --

a level of redundancy that says,

nivo preopširnosti koji kaže,

if one system fails, you'll still have a way

da ako jedan sistem otkaže, i dalje imate način

to make sure that you're being controlled.

da budete sigurni da će vas kontrolisati.

Because if you're in this world, where computers are controlling what you're doing,

Jer ako se nalazite u svetu gde računari kontrolišu ono što radite,

it's going to be very critical that something can't fail on you.

biće veoma važno da vas nešto ne izneveri.

How would a trip in a Skycar work?

Kako bi putovanje u letećem automobilu funkcionisalo?

Well, you can't right now

Pa, ne možete baš sad

take off from your home because it's too noisy.

uzleteti ispred svoje kuće jer je prebučno.

I mean to be able to take off from your home, you'd have to be extremely quiet.

Ako biste to želeli, trebalo bi da budete veoma tihi.

But it's still fairly quiet.

Ali i dalje je to prilično tiho.

You'd motor, electrically, to a vertiport,

Odvezli biste se, koristeći električni pogon, na vertidrom

which may be a few blocks, maybe even a few miles away.

koji bi bio udaljen nekoliko blokova ili nekoliko kilometara.

This is clearly, as I said earlier, a roadable aircraft,

Ovo je, kao što sam rekao ranije, putna letelica,

and you're not going to spend that much time on the road.

pri čemu nećete potrošiti toliko vremena na putu.

After all, if you can fly like that,

Nakon svega, ako možete leteti,

why are you going to drive around on a highway?

zašto da se vozite unaokolo auto-putem?

Go to a local vertiport,

Idite na lokalni vertidrom,

plug in your destination,

unesite svoju destinaciju

delivered almost like a passenger.

i stignite skoro kao običan putnik.

You can play computer games, you can sleep, you can read on the way.

Možete igrati video igrice, možete spavati, možete čitati u putu.

This is the world -- there won't be you as a pilot. And I know the pilots in the audience aren't going to like that --

Ovo je svet -- nećete vi obavljati ulogu pilota. Znam neke pilote u publici kojima se ovo neće dopasti --

and I've had a lot of bad feedback

imao sam mnogo loših povratnih reakcija

from people who want to be up there, flying around

od ljudi koji hoće da budu gore,

and experiencing that.

da lete i doživljavaju to.

And of course, I suppose like recreational parks you can still do that.

Naravno, pretpostavljam da ima rekreativnih parkova u kojima to i dalje možete.

But the vehicle itself is going to be a very, very controlled environment.

Ali vozilo će samo po sebi biti veoma kontrolisano okruženje.

Or it's going to have no use to you as a person who might use such a system.

U suprotnom vam neće biti od koristi, ako želite da koristite takav sistem.

We flew the first vehicle for the international press

Vozili smo prvo vozilo za međunarodne novinare

in 1965, when I really got it started.

1965., kada sam započeo zapravo sve to.

I was a professor at the U.C. Davis System,

Bio sam profesor na Dejvisu, Univerziteta Kalifornije,

and I got a lot of excitement around this,

i bio sam veoma uzbuđen povodom svega,

and I was able to fund the initiation of the program back in that time.

tada sam bio u mogućnosti da finansiram početak programa.

And then through the various years

Nakon niza različitih godina

we invented various vehicles.

izumeli smo različita vozila.

Actually the critical point was in 1989,

Zapravo kritična tačka je bila 1989.

when we demonstrated the stability of this vehicle --

kada smo demonstrirali stabilnost ovog vozila --

how completely stable it was in all circumstances,

koliko je zapravo bilo stabilno u svim okolnostima,

which is of course very critical.

što je naravno bilo veoma važno.

Still not a practical vehicle during all of this,

Ipak nakon svega nije bilo praktično vozilo,

but moving in the right direction, we believe.

ali verujem da smo se kretali u pravom smeru.

Finally, in the early part of --

Konačno, na početku --

or actually the middle of 2002,

zapravo sredinom 2002. godine,

we flew the 400 -- M400, which was the four-passenger vehicle.

leteli smo sa M 400, koje je bilo vozilo za četiri putnika.

In this case here, we're flying it remotely, as we always did at the beginning.

U ovom slučaju, korišćeno je daljinsko upravljanje kao što smo u početku uvek radili.

And we had very small power plants in it at this time.

I imali smo u njemu veoma male elektrane u to vreme.

We are now installing larger powerplants,

Sada ugrađujemo veće elektrane,

which will make it possible for me to get back on board.

koje će mi omogućiti da se ponovo ukrcam.

A vertical-takeoff aircraft

Letelica sa vertikalnim uzletanjem

is not the safest vehicle during the test flight program.

nije najbezbednije vozilo tokom programa testiranja.

There's an old adage that applied for the years

Postoji stara izreka koja se primenjivala godinama

between 1950s and 1970s,

između 1950. i 1970. godine,

when every aeronautical company

kada je svaka aeronautička kompanija

was working on vertical-takeoff aircraft.

radila na letelicama koje uzleću vertikalno.

A vertical-takeoff aircraft

Letelica sa vertikalnim uzletanjem

needs an artificial stabilization system --

ima potrebu za veštačkim sistemom stabilizacije --

that's essential.

ovo je ključno.

At least for the hover,

Barem za lebdenje,

and the low-speed flight.

i let na niskim brzinama.

If that single-stability system,

Ako taj sistem stabilnosti,

that brain that flies that aircraft, fails, or if the engine fails,

taj mozak koji održava letelicu, zakaže ili motor zakaže,

that vehicle crashes. There is no option to that.

to vozilo će se srušiti. Tu ne postoji druga opcija.

And the adage that I'm referring to,

A izreka na koju sam se pozvao,

that applied at that time,

a koja se primenjivala u to vreme,

was that nothing comes down faster

kaže da ništa ne pada brže

than a VTOL aircraft upside down.

od letelice sa vertikalnim uzletanjem.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

That's a macabre comment because we lost a lot of pilots.

To je grozan komentar jer smo izgubili mnogo pilota.

In fact, the aircraft companies gave up on

Zapravo, kompanije su odustale

vertical-takeoff aircraft

od letelica sa vertikalnim uzletanjem

more or less for a number of years.

manje ili više za dugi niz godina.

And there's really only one operational aircraft in the world today

Tako da danas postoji samo jedna operativna letelica na svetu

that's a vertical-takeoff aircraft -- as distinct from a helicopter --

koja uzleće vertikalno -- za razliku od helikoptera --

and that's the Hawker Harrier jump jet.

a to je lovački avion Hoker Harijer.

A vertical-takeoff aircraft,

Letelica sa vertikalnim uzletanjem,

like the hummingbird,

kao i kolibri,

has a very high metabolism,

ima veoma brz metabolizam,

which means it requires a lot of energy.

što znači da zahteva mnogo energije.

Getting that energy is very, very difficult. It all comes down

Dobavljanje tolike količine energije je veoma teško. Sve se svodi

to that power plant -- how to get a large amount of power in a small package.

na tu elektranu -- kako dopremiti veću količinu energije u malom pakovanju.

Fortunately, Dr. Felix Wankel

Na sreću dr. Feliks Vankel

invented the rotary engine.

izumeo je rotacioni motor.

A very unique engine -- it's round,

Jedinstven motor -- okrugao je,

it's small, it's vibration-free.

mali i bez vibracija.

It fits exactly where we need to fit it,

Uklapa se tačno tamo gde je nama to potrebno,

right in the center of the hubs of the ducts in the system --

u samom centru čvorišta kanala u sistemu --

very critical. In fact that engine --

veoma važno. Zapravo taj motor --

for those who are into the automobile --

za one koji se razumeju u automobile --

know that it recently is applied to the RX8 --

znaju da je nedavno primenjen na RX 8 --

the Mazda.

Mazdu.

And that sportscar won Sports Car of the Year.

A taj automobil je proglašen za sportski automobil godine.

Wonderful engine.

Predivan motor.

In that application, it generates one horsepower per pound,

U ovoj primeni, daje jednu konjsku snagu na pola kilograma,

which is twice as good as your car engine today,

što je dvostruko bolje od vaših motora danas,

but only half of what we need.

ali samo pola od toga što je nama potrebno.

My company has spent 35 years

Moja kompanija je provela 35 godina

and many millions of dollars taking that rotary engine,

i potrošila više miliona dolara uzimajuću da je rotacioni motor,

which was invented in the late '50s, and getting it to the point that we get

koji je izmišljen kasnih '50-ih, i dolazeći do tačke gde smo dobili

over two horsepower per pound, reliably, and critical.

preko dve konjske snage na pola kilograma, pouzdano i važno.

We actually get 175 horsepower

Zapravo smo ugurali 175 konjskih snaga

into one cubic foot.

u zapreminu od 28 litara.

We have eight engines in this vehicle.

Imamo osam motora u ovom vozilu.

We have four computers. We have two parachutes.

Imamo četiri računara. Imamo dva padobrana.

Redundancy is the critical issue here.

Preopširnost je ovde kritična tema.

If you want to stay alive you've got to have backups.

Ako hoćete da ostanete živi morate imati rezervu.

And we have actually flown this vehicle and lost an engine,

Mi smo leteli ovim vozilom i izgubili motor,

and continued to hover.

nastavio je da lebdi.

The computers back up each other. There's a voting system --

Računari se međusovno pokrivaju. Postoji sistem glasanja --

if one computer is not agreeing with the other three,

ako se jedan računar ne slaže sa ostala tri,

it's kicked out of the system.

biva izbačen iz sistema.

And then you have three -- you still have the triple redundancy.

Tada imate tri -- još uvek imate trostruku redundansu.

If one of those fails, you still have a second chance.

Ako jedan od njih zakaže i dalje imate drugu šansu.

If you stick around, then good luck.

Ako se i dalje držite, onda srećno.

There won't be a third chance.

Neće biti treće šanse.

The parachutes are there -- hopefully,

Padobrani su -- nadam se,

more for psychological than real reasons, but

više iz psihološkog nego realnog razloga, ali

they will be an ultimate backup if it comes to that.

oni će biti krajnja rezerva ako do toga dođe.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

I'd like to show you an animation in this next one,

Hteo bih da vam prikažem animaciju,

which is one element

koja predstavlja jedan element

of the Skycar's use,

upotrebe letećeg automobila,

but it's one that demonstrates how it could be used.

ali ova demonstrira kako bi se mogao koristiti.

You could think of it personally in your own terms,

Možete o ovome razmišljati prema svojim nahođenjima,

of how you might use it.

kako biste ga vi mogli koristiti.

Video: Skycar dispatched, launch rescue vehicle for San Francisco.

Video: Leteći automobil otpremljen, poslati spasilačko vozilo u San Francisko.

Paul Moller: I believe that personal transportation

Pol Moler: Verujem da će lični prevoz

in something like the Skycar,

u nečemu kao što je leteći automobil,

probably in another volantor form as well,

verovatno i u još jednom volantor obliku,

will be a significant part of our lives,

biti značajan deo naših života,

as Dr. Goldin says, within the next 10 years.

u sledećih 10 godina, kao što je rekao dr. Goldin.

And it's going to change the demographics in a very significant way.

To će promeniti demografiju na veoma značajan način.

If you can live 75 miles from San Francisco and get there in 15 minutes,

Ako možete živeti na 120 kilometara od San Franciska i stići tamo za 15 minuta,

you're going to sell your 700,000-dollar apartment,

vi ćete prodati vaš stan od 700 hiljada dolara,

buy an upscale home on the side of a mountain,

kupiti kuću u planinskom delu,

buy a Skycar,

kupiti leteći automobil,

which I think would be priced at that time perhaps

gde mislim da bi možda cena u to vreme,

in the area of 100,000 dollars, put money in the bank ...

u toj oblasti bila 100 hiljada dolara, stavićete novac u banku...

that's a very significant incentive for getting out of San Francisco.

ovo je veoma značajan podsticaj za odlazak iz San Franciska.

But you better be the first one out of town as the real estate values go to hell.

Ali bolje vam je da budete prvi dok vrednost nekretnina odlazi do đavola.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Developing the Skycar has been a real challenge.

Razvijanje letećeg automobila bio je pravi izazov.

Obviously I'm dependent on a lot of other people

Očigledno sam zavisan od mnogo ljudi

believing in what I'm doing -- both financially and in technical help.

koji veruju u to što radim -- kako finansijski tako i tehnički.

And that has --

A to je --

you run into situations where you have this great acceptance of what you're doing,

ulazite u situacije gde imate to sjajno prihvatanje onoga što radite,

and a lot of rejection of the same kind of thing.

i mnogo odbijanja za istu stvar.

I characterized this emerging technology

Okarakterisao sam ovu tehnologiju u nastajanju

in an aphorism,

kroz aforizam,

as it's described,

kao što je opisano,

which really talks about what I've experienced,

i što zaista govori o onome što sam iskusio,

and I'm sure what other people may have experienced

i onome što su, siguran sam i drugi možda iskusili

in emerging technologies.

u nastajućim tehnologijama.

There's an interesting poll that came out recently

Postoji zanimljivo istraživanje koje je nedavno izašlo

under NAS --

pod Nacionalnom asocijacijom naučnika --

I think it's MSNBC --

Mislim da je MSNBC (televizijska mreža) --

in which they asked the question,

u kome su postavili pitanje,

"Are you in the market for a volantor?"

"Da li ćete biti na tržištu za volantor"?

Twenty-three percent said, "Yes, as soon as possible."

Dvadeset tri procenta odgovrilo je, "Da, što je pre moguće".

Forty-seven percent -- yes, as soon as they could -- price could come down.

Četrdeset sedam procenta -- da, nakon što padnu cene.

Twenty-three percent said, "As soon as it's proven safe."

dvadeset tri procenta je odgovorilo: "Čim se pokaže bezbednim".

Only seven percent said

Samo sedam procenata je odgovorilo

that they wouldn't consider buying a Skycar.

da ne bi razmatrali kupovinu letećeg automobila.

I'm encouraged by that. At least it makes me feel like,

Ohrabren sam time. Bar se osećam,

to some extent, it is becoming self-evident.

u neku ruku, kao da postaje očigledno.

That we need an alternative to the automobile,

Da nam je potrebna alternativa automobilima,

at least for those 50-mile trips and more,

bar za ona putovanja preko 80 kilometara,

so that the highways become usable in today's world.

tako da auto-putevi u današnjem svetu postanu upotrebljivi.

Thank you.

Hvala vam.
