On May 11th, China began the trial operation of a new suspended monorail called \"the Optics Valley Photon\". This advanced transportation system is not only futuristic in design but also provides a glimpse into the future of urban mobility. The suspended monorail, located in Wuhan, Hubei Province, falls under the category of three-dimensional transportation with independent road rights and is unaffected by ground traffic or pedestrians.

\n\n\n\n

The suspended monorail is designed with a blue color scheme that gives it a futuristic feel. It has the capacity to carry over 220 passengers and can reach speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour. Additionally, it can be configured with 2-6 carriages to accommodate varying transportation requirements.

\n\n\n\n

The route spans 26.7 kilometers and includes 16 stations. Transparent viewing windows are incorporated into the cabin side windows and carriage floor, offering passengers a panoramic view of up to 270 degrees. This unique feature allows passengers to enjoy an aerial perspective of the scenery along the way.

\n\n\n\n

The monorail has a fully automatic unmanned driving function that controls the entire process of vehicle start-up, parking, storage, and door opening/closing without any manual operation. It is set to commence operations this year and offers four ways for passengers to purchase tickets: QR code, integrated circuit card, facial recognition, and palm vein recognition. Notably, this is the first time that palm vein recognition technology has been implemented in Wuhan's public transportation system.
