Cambridge Consultants just revealed to the public their project, DelivAir that can deliver a package directly into someone’s hands. This type of delivery is ideal for items that are needed instantly like a first aid kit, relief packages to areas hit by disasters.
This is how it works, the drone via their smartphone uses GPS to locate a person . Then, it uses optical tracking, a 3D-imaging and ranging system to locate and validate the receiver. Right after the drone reaches the delivery point, the recipient points their mobile phone’s flash at the drone above, which will confirm after blinking the coded pattern. The drone hovers just above the phone then lowers the package down on a stabilizing rope, like a winch
