Ep. 184 – Guanhao Wu: Building a Personal Flying Jetpack Suit

Broadcast on:
03 Nov 2023

Guanhao Wu is the Co-Founder and CEO of Exovolar, a company making personal flying jetpacks (finally!).

Exovolar aims to augment our main mobility tool, the legs, to make flying as simple as walking. The combination of jet engines, exoskeleton, and their patented thrust vector nozzle design allows the legs to fulfill their destined duty – to support and move our body – like a certain heavily trademarked action movie franchise character. You know, what’s his face. I love it when someone attempts the truly ridiculous and flying in a suit like Steel Dude (that’s his name, right?) is a bold, audacious, ridiculous concept that is too fun to ignore.
