Tokyo: The world’s smallest one-man helicopter will soon take flight at the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci, who is credited with having first thought of a vertical-flight machine, its developer said.
The 75-kg helicopter will make a demonstration flight in the city of Vinci, near Florence, on May 25, according to Japanese developer Gennai Yanagisawa, 75. “Since the concept of our helicopter came from Italy, I always wanted to take a flight in the birthplace of da Vinci,” Yanagisawa said.
“I feel like I’m greeting an ancestor. I hope da Vinci would be pleased,” Yanagisawa said. Yanagisawa said he went to Vinci in February and received the blessing of Mayor Dario Parrini.
The helicopter, named GEN H-4, has a set of two rotors turning in opposite directions and can fly at a maximum speed of 50 km per hour.
Guinness World Records in February recognised it as the world’s smallest helicopter that can carry a person.
Renaissance genius da Vinci’s sketch, dated in 1493 and discovered in the 19th century, shows a vertical flight machine. As in the drawing, the GEN H-4 has no tail. AFP

Nokia’s Dream Phones
The handset maker went to citizens of Mumbai, Rio and other megacities for new ideas—and got designs that find graffiti, test water, and emit peace vibes

By Kerry Capell

In the three rapidly growing cities of Mumbai, Rio de Janeiro, and Accra (Ghana), Nokia’s design team set up open studios where members of the local community could sketch their dream phones. Nokia provided the space and the drawing tools, and more than 220 people offered up their vision of the ideal handset. Pictured is Sam from Accra with his design. Nokia asked participants to address the following questions:

What does it look like?

What does it do?

How will you use it?

When and where will you use it?

Other questions were aimed at providing Nokia’s researchers with deeper insight into the broader issue of identity within these fast-growing urban environments. The team gleaned information on participants’ tastes, style, personality, profession, religion, sense of heritage, and community. Some of the participants knocked off sketches in 20 minutes, while others spent two full days on the project.
