Michel Guilhot and Eyesfly

Michel Guilhot has been awarded a gold medal in Geneva during the great show of inventions which took place in the city and has just closed. Some weeks ago, he has been rewarded at the 2006 Invention World (Mondial de l’invention de La Villette).
Michel Guilhot has created a flying object that could be destined to a great future.
He called it Eyesfly.

Eyesfly looks like a flying saucer. The cabin is located in the center. Two sets of blades, one above, one below, allow it to move in space. The whole of the device is wrapped in a thin wire netting which protects it. Eyesfly is a machine meant to see or to work in places where men put themselves in danger. Even in very low altitude, the device is not disrupted by turbulent winds. It is equipped with robots, TV cameras and photo cameras. It is driven by a pilot from the ground.

The idea of Eyesfly has been born in the mind of the engineer Michel Guilhot in 1994. Since 2003, he devotes all his time to his invention’s development. He created his own firm : Workfly. Michel Guilhot is currently looking for active partners to enter the industrial stage… and he already imagines the future : people transportation.
