We Can Fly
World's First Human Anatomy Drone Harness with Torso-Hip Flexion
Our Story
A Family's Vision
Our journey began with a shared passion between a father and his two daughters, who frequently used drones to capture breathtaking videos of lush green valleys and stunning landscapes. As we admired these aerial views, we often talked about how incredible it would be to experience the sensation of flying up there ourselves. We realized that to achieve this, we would need to attach ourselves to a drone, which sparked our imagination and set us on a path to make this vision a reality. This realization led to the creation of the Human Anatomy Drone Harness.
Introduction
The Dream of Flight
For centuries, humans have dreamed of soaring through the skies like birds, experiencing the freedom and exhilaration of flight. Even Leonardo Da Vinci visualized human flight, designing elaborate flying machines, unfortunately Leonardo lacked the battery-powered drones we have today. Our invention, the Human Anatomy Drone Harness, brings this age-old dream to reality by harnessing modern technology to create a way to fly, fulfilling the long-standing human desire to take to the skies.
Perfect Timings
The Rapid Evolution of Drones and Battery Technology
Drone and battery technology are advancing at an unprecedented pace, continuously expanding the possibilities of what drones can achieve. Recent innovations have significantly increased the lifting capacity of drones, allowing them to carry heavier payloads of 300KG (661 pounds) with ease. Simultaneously, advancements in battery technology are extending flight durations, enabling drones to stay airborne longer than ever before. These developments are crucial to the realization of our Human Anatomy Drone Harness, as they enhance the feasibility and safety of personal flight. Because of these technological advancements, the future where humans can soar like birds over beautiful valleys is no longer a distant dream— we are ready to bring it to the world.
The Innovation
Novel and Inventive
The patent office's International Search Report states in the 'Written Opinion of the International Searching Authority' that our invention is both "novel and inventive", paving the way for a groundbreaking advancement in personal flight technology. Our harness is securely integrated to a drone, allowing a human to fly in a prone position and release at the hips for upright landing and takeoffs. The written opinion further states that “none of the cited documents discloses a personal flying apparatus comprising a leg portion being hingedly coupled to the torso portion; and wherein the leg portion rotates freely relative to the torso portion during a take phase and landing phase of flight and is fixed in an inline position thereto during flight”.
This is a World's First!
The Prototype
At the heart of our project is the Human Anatomy Drone Harness, a revolutionary design that we've brought to life. This harness is the culmination of countless hours of engineering, design, and craftsmanship, built specifically to marry the human anatomy drone harness with drone power technology.
The harness you see in these images is our first functional prototype. We've meticulously crafted it to ensure it fits securely and comfortably on the human body, with a focus on the critical aspect of torso and hip flexion. This real-world testing allows us to refine the harness for optimal performance and safety during flight.

We are excited to share the progress we've made with the Human Anatomy Drone Harness. While we are still in the very early stages of development, we have constructed a tangible and functional prototype of the harness itself. This prototype clearly demonstrates the core physical attributes that make our design unique, innovative and patentable.

However, it's important to note that some of the more complex technological aspects of the harness are still under development. For example, the electromagnetic coupling technology between the leg segment and the torso segment of the harness, as well as the electronic integration with the drone, are areas that we are actively working on.
Enhanced Flight (Optional Wings for Maneuverability)
While our drone is powered by batteries for the rotational motion of the propellers, we've gone a step further by adding motorized wings. These wings provide much greater human maneuverability, allowing the flier to control the direction and speed more naturally. This addition transforms the experience, offering a blend of traditional drone capabilities and bird-like agility.
Recreational Uses
Sure, the original idea may have been the sheer pleasure of a family outing attached to a drone with wings and flying over lush green valleys but The Human Anatomy Drone Harness is a fascinating invention with potential applications beyond recreational use.
Here are some possible uses and industries where the harness could be beneficial:
