Package delivery by drone

Published on Jul 28, 2015


Take an electric delivery truck, add wireless charging on top and a drone that can carry 10 pounds for 30 minutes, and you have the perfect package delivery system. At least, that’s what the Workhorse Group thinks. Last week the company filed with the FAA for permission to deliver packages by drone, and this week it demonstrated the drone part of its technology at UTM 2015, a three-day convention focused on Unmanned Aerial System Traffic Management held at NASA's Ames Research Center.

Workhorse Horsefly Autonomous Drone Package Delivery Pilot Underway in Cincinnati.

The unique, patented HorseFly system complies with current FAA safety regulations for drone package delivery. Currently, each package is delivered within the delivery driver's line of sight. Data from the pilot will provide essential insights into consumer preferences, as well as real-world evidence to support expanded use cases with the FAA. To date, the system has been successfully tested with UPS and an undisclosed e-commerce company, and aims to provide significant cost savings by eliminating extra miles of driving to deliver packages.
