\nAlphabet, compania-mam\u0103 a Google, a pus cap\u0103t proiectului cunoscut drept \u201eLoon\u201d, un business cu baloane de internet, prin care gigantul \u00ee\u015fi dorea s\u0103 ofere o alternativ\u0103 la turnurile telecom, potrivit Reuters.<\/p>\n
\nGigantul Alphabet a anun\u0163at joi c\u0103 proiectul Loon nu este viabil din punct de vedere comercial.<\/p>\n
\n\u00cenceput \u00een 2011, proiectul Loon \u00ee\u015fi dorea s\u0103 furnizeze conectivitate \u00een zonele lumii \u00een care construc\u0163ia de turnuri telecom este prea scump\u0103 sau complicat\u0103. Alphabet \u00ee\u015fi dorea s\u0103 utilizeze baloane de dimensiunea unui teren de tenis pentru a men\u0163ine o re\u0163ea plutitoare de echipamente, alimentat\u0103 cu energie solar\u0103.<\/p>\n
\n\u201e\u00cen timp ce am g\u0103sit deschidere la mai mul\u0163i parteneri \u00een drumul nostru, nu am g\u0103sit o modalitate de a diminua costul p\u00e2n\u0103 la punctul \u00een care s\u0103 putem construi un business sustenabil pe termen lung\u201d, a scris Alastair Westgarth, CEO-ul Loon, \u00eentr-o postare de blog.<\/p>\n
\nRich DeVaul, unul dintre fondatorii proiectului care nu mai face parte ast\u0103zi din Alphabet, a ad\u0103ugat c\u0103 evolu\u0163ia cererii pentru conectivitate mobil\u0103 a transformat turnurile telecom \u00eentr-o op\u0163iune mai eficient\u0103 din punct de vedere al costurilor, \u00eentr-un mod \u00een care nu putea fi estimat \u00een urm\u0103 cu un deceniu. Astfel, nevoia pentru proiectul Loon s-a diminuat.<\/p>\n
\nCompania avea 200 de angaja\u0163i \u00een 2019. \u00cen acela\u015fi an a atras o investi\u0163ie de 125 de milioane de dolari de la compania HAPSMobile, controlat\u0103 de SoftBank.<\/p>\n
\nSeparat de proiectul Loon, mai multe companii finan\u0163ate de antreprenori miliardari precum Elon Musk, Richard Branson sau Jeff Bezos caut\u0103 alternative sustenabile pentru conexiunile de internet, cea mai vehiculat\u0103 variant\u0103 fiind cea a unei re\u0163ele de sateli\u0163i pozi\u0163iona\u0163i \u00een jurul planetei.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
