Drone delivery technology Autonomous transportation company Zipline, which has been in the works since 2014, is taking a big step forward this year when it announced its latest device.
The device, known as Platform 2 (P2), cuts delivery times in half and could be a new life-saving asset for delivering medical supplies, prescriptions and food.

The company’s Zipline created a device that uses drone delivery technology to deliver items such as medical supplies, prescriptions and food. (zipline)
How does P2 zip work?
P2 zip construction includes droid, It’s basically a streaming box with a popper on the back. A delivery person places the package inside the droid, and the droid is placed inside the belly of one of the Zipline P2 Zip eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) drones.

The P2 is a zip-up drone that can fly approximately 300 feet in the air. (zipline)
Once the P2 zips up, it flies approximately 300 feet in the air. The drone can carry up to eight kilograms at a time and has a service radius of up to 10 miles out and back. Once the drone reaches its destination, the second droid descends with a retractable taser and uses sensitive cameras to determine where to land the package. The recipient of the package can open the droid to extract the package, and the droid will climb back into the drone and continue its journey to recharge itself or fetch another order.

What are the benefits of P2 zip?
One of the best advantages of this innovation is that it makes local delivery very fast. The drone can’t make a long trip, but it can definitely make it from you. Local grocery store To your home and back without any problems.
This can be a life-saving innovation, as the company will apply it in hospitals and clinics Other health care facilities. Michigan Medicine, Multicare Health System and Salt Lake City Intermountain Health already plan to use it to deliver prescriptions. It is also used by some companies to deliver blood and vaccines to remote areas. At the same time, companies like Sweetgreen have signed on to deliver the service to customers’ homes.

Zipline is looking to release delivery drones next year. (zipline)
Zipline hopes to have the P2 Zip up and running in just under a year. The only downside I can imagine is that many other technology companies are working too fast to deploy drones and we may have a drone traffic issue in the skies before we even know it. Until then, we’ll have to see what plans these companies have to curb that issue.
