EvTol, midnight, is a good electric taxi capable of carrying up to four passengers at a time. It can reach weather speeds of up to 241 km/h (150 miles per hour), and it is operated with six battery packages, each of which supports one pair of a total of twelve engines on the plane. Archer claims that EvTols be shipped in minutes, and is described as quieter than traditional helicopters.

When the car was first offered in 2022, midnight was said to have a load of more than 1,000 pounds and that it was improved on short flights of up to 20 miles with 10 minutes of charging between flights. The company obtained a FAA safety certificate in 2024, allowing it to launch commercial trips in the United States of America.

With this Olympic partnership, Archer compounds can be used for a variety of applications in games, including VIP and fans transport via takeoff centers and header in the main places. It can also be used by emergency or security services. However, final use cases should still be confirmed. The final goal of the partnership is to enable passengers to attend “Vertiport” near the main Olympic places, then fly from 10 to 20 minutes across the city to another destination on the company La network.

This network of Vertiports will consist of sites such as the stadium in Inglo, Los Angeles International Airport, Hollywood, Orange County, Santa Monica and Los Angeles Memorial School.

The Olympic Partnership represents another milestone for EVTOL. Earlier this month, the air taxi developer announced a partnership with United Airlines to develop plans for the air car network in New York City. This would enable passengers to travel from Manhattan to nearby airports in 5-15 minutes.

The important role of optical fibers in the Paris 2024 OlympicsAs the world prepares for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the role of technology in delivering a seamless, immersive experience for millions of spectators and participants has become more important than ever. Among the many technologies being deployed, fiber optics stands out as the backbone of connectivity, ensuring everything from real-time broadcasting to robust communications networks.

Orange has been appointed as the official supplier and is responsible for providing connectivity to venues and sponsors through fibre and mobile networks. “For the first time, the Olympics will be connected by a unified network architecture that includes fibre, Wi-Fi and a native 5G network over IP, the latter offering a richer viewing experience during official ceremonies and sporting events” (Orange, 2024).

Here’s a look at how fibre optics will be used at the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris in 2024.

Broadcast quality

Broadcasting is one of the most important applications of fiber optics at the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The demand for high-quality video content requires a network capable of transmitting massive amounts of data quickly and reliably. Fiber optics perfectly meets these requirements with its high bandwidth and low latency characteristics.

Real-time video transmission: Fiber optic networks allow live broadcasts to be transmitted from different locations to broadcast centers with virtually no delay, ensuring that viewers around the world can watch the action as it happens. This ability to broadcast in real time is crucial for live sports where every second counts.

Improve viewer experience

Spectator experience is a top priority for Olympic Games organisers, and fibre optics play a vital role in enhancing this experience.

High-speed Internet Access: Spectators at venues will have access to high-speed Internet, allowing them to share their experiences in real time and access information about events, tickets and schedules seamlessly.

The 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris are set to be a landmark event, not only for their sporting achievements but also for their technological advances. Fiber optics is at the heart of this transformation, providing the infrastructure for high-quality broadcasting, robust communications networks and advanced technologies that enhance the overall experience for everyone.

About 30 ships will be equipped with electric and hybrid engines for the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris. As Powertrain International writes, 20 boats have been converted for the purpose, and another eleven have been newly built. They are all part of a fleet of more than 150 ships designed for commercial voyages in Paris.

According to the report, the local Parisian shipping industry wants to use the opening ceremony to extend the push on the water until after the Olympics. With this in mind, the Port of Haropa, an association of the ports of Le Havre, Rouen and Paris, and the major boat tour company Vedettes de Paris, have signed an agreement. In this agreement, Haropa Port makes the rights to use landing and departure sites subject to a fleet conversion condition, but in return, it also creates a support program to offset investments associated with greening the fleet.
