Drone Usage in Food Deliveries

avatar

The drone is such fantastic innovation of technology that is a future-driven product and it can make things way easier with delivery services. Earlier companies like amazon and pizza hut have done the trails for delivery with drones and its something that makes delivery not just faster but also a cost-effective solution.

These days in India contactless delivery has been started already because of the covid pandemic taking it forward a food delivery company Swiggy has been exploring the drone delivery option. Its would be great if this company makes it possible because it will ensure more safety and even timely delivery of food order.

Swiggy may soon deliver food using drones, with trials to begin for both food and medical packages. Swiggy's drone delivery partner, ANRA Technologies, has got final clearances from Ministry of Defence (MoD), Directorate General of Aviation (DGCA), and Ministry of Civil Aviation (MOCA) to commence drone trials for delivering food. ANRA Technologies has got the clearances for Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations. After a lot of planning, air traffic control integration, and readying equipment, ANRA launched its first sortie on June 16.

I have been using swiggy for the last few years and its one of the leading companies in food delivery across India. There are two companies that are the leaders in this segment and swiggy is one of them along with zomato. It is really a great initiative the company is exploring to make the delivery faster contactless and also human-less. I expect that this will also reduce the delivery time significantly and users will be able to get the delivery in half of the time as compared to what they used to get earlier.

These days drones have become smarter and loaded with highly advanced technology which allows better control. Although Amazon is yet to talk about it I wonder if this thing will it start by one of the company then later many other companies will also join the trend and adopt drone in their deliveries.

ANRA Technologies is the company in India that will be facilitating drone delivery for food delivery company Swiggy and they have already received the required approval from government authority since using drones without approval is not allowed in the country for commercial purposes.

Along with food delivery that another option is considered medical packet delivery through drone and its, this is going to be great. Its obvious that technology is the only thing that can make our life better so we must adopt it as soon as we can and this way we will move toward a smart and advanced life that is backed by technological innovation. I am super excited to see it happen soon and I will get the delivery through drone at my place for my order.

Thank you.

Drones have more and more options to be used, one of them is for the delivery of food and medicine orders, which has increased due to the distancing established by the Covid pandemic.
Drones are already part of everyday life, welcome to make our lives easier.

I believe drones are the next phase of life.. Technology keeps advancing everyday and I know sooner than later, most people will get use to drones delivering their purchases to them at home.

Let's wait and see what the future holds

While drone delivery service seem invaluable in times of the pandemic I also see it taking away job opportunities for hundreds of people in developing nations like India.
I believe during the pandemic so many people who have lost their jobs have taken to food and delivery of essential commodities for their survival.
While I agree with how technology can make life amazing I also see how it much bring misery it could bring to those who need the employment.
