Delivery made easy!
It’s the year 2050 and people are very busy working. Physical stores have turned into warehouses and have started sending items directly to customers. Many people work and shop from home, meaning most people don’t buy outside much anymore. Although there is still human handled delivery services, they aren’t always completely reliable because of either the orders being stolen, lost or aren’t delivered on time. However, there has been new advertisements for a drone-based delivery service that would deliver your orders directly to your door using robotic drones.
Icarus will solve problems the existing delivery method couldn’t. The drone, upon arriving at its customer’s doorstep, will float in the air waiting for its recipient to interact with it. When it does meet its customer, the drone will ask them to show a specific barcode of which the drone will scan to confirm the delivery. Upon successful verification, the drone will release hold of its parcel and fly off.
The Icarus drones are designed with state-of-the-art battery consumption and directional GPS technology. It has an average battery life of around eight hours and is backed up with an emergency solar powered battery system. It is 0.5×0.5 meters in size and can carry up to two times its extent, or ten kilograms of weight.
Investors should care about the Icarus brand of delivery drones because of not only the aforementioned problems with our existing delivery services but also because of their inclusion as available workarounds for other issues involving workforces. Their advanced artificial intelligence allows for indirect control and could be commanded by digital information without someone to overlook workflow. The drone can scan the right package, pick it up from the ready-to-go line and delivers it to the designated address. Upon arrival, it waits for the recipient at the front door, floating up to 8 hrs. in the area. No more stolen packages mean stronger brand and consumer satisfaction. Consumers will more likely choose to shop where the delivery services are more reliable and convenient.
These drones, by using solar powered energy, are very eco-friendly means of delivery. A drone-based delivery system is a cheap and cost-effective alternative to hiring human couriers and could raise standards in professionalism, helping to create a strong brand image through reliable means of delivery.
The development of Icarus drones was made possible thanks to advancement in AI and autonomous car driving technologies. Years of solar panel development by Tesla, allowed to create a body that consists of solar energy receivable mini-tiles capable of storing sunrays power in the first state-of-the-art battery, allowing for more than 8hrs of continuous usage. Digital payments introduced by Apple Pay and PayPal, as well as facial recognition, were integrated into a scanning software, which means no more lost packages. The trend of online shopping and switch to the augmented reality to see and try products virtually has led to vanishing physical location, and growth of dropshipping and direct product delivery
