Michael, who got the goodies, said, “It’s amazing that a flying robot just delivered us food and drinks in a matter of minutes.”
This particular drone was manufactured by Flirtey, a drone startup, but many companies are exploring using drones for delivering packages. Google and Amazon are probably leading the way, but strict drone regulations have hampered testing and full-scale adoption.
The rules don’t allow drones to fly outside the line of sight of their operators nor can they be flown at night. These factors alone represent major hurdles that need to be overcome.
But we all know who wins when tired regulation comes up against mind-blowingly impressive technology.
Here’s looking forward to my future hamburger being dropped by drone express
