DHL drone delivers medicine across the Rhine
This winter microdrones’ md4-1000 achieved something no other quadcopter had previously done. An md4-1000 delivered parcels with medicine from a pharmacy in Bonn, Germany to the DHL-headquarter across the Rhine River.
This project demonstrates how microdrones add a new dimension to a logistical value chain.
Using microdrones as an unmanned-cargo platform for parcels distribution provides an organization with more flexibility and capabilities to deliver parcels.
Delivered parcels per day: 8
Transported net payload: 6000g
Total km traveled: 50km
We like to express our gratitude to Deutsche Post DHL for this unique and pioneering opportunity!
Special thanks to Chris, Daniel², Elmar, Gunnar, Joachim, Johannes, Jonas, Sven and the whole microdrones team for supporting this historical moment.
Special thanks to slamartist.com! Ferdi Fischer who is the director and coordinator of this prodigious, documentational video.
