A management system for delivery drones. The ground station talks to the fleet, and the team built the software from experience on earlier projects.
Overview
AeroDelivery is the management system for a fleet of delivery drones. The ground station stays in contact with every aircraft, so one team can run deliveries instead of flying each drone by hand.
The software was built as a complete solution: a remote server, task and delivery-point setup, and a live view of status and location.
One operator can send custom commands and manage both the delivery and the individual actions of every drone in the fleet.
The Challenge
A delivery drone on its own is not a service. The ground station has to reach many UAV boards at once, assign work, and still see where each aircraft is.
That link had to work remotely, over GPRS, and still leave room for an operator to step in with a custom command.
Our Solution
A remote server talks to multiple UAV boards over GPRS. From there the operator sets tasks and delivery points and watches status and location in real time.
The same seat can send a custom command, run a delivery, or act on a single drone without losing the rest of the fleet.
Key Features
The station stays in communication with the delivery fleet, not with one aircraft at a time.
A remote server reaches multiple UAV boards over GPRS.
An operator sets the task and the delivery point for each run.
Drone status and position update in real time while a delivery is underway.
One operator can send a custom command or manage an individual action on any drone in the fleet.
The Impact
A remote server talks to multiple UAV boards over GPRS. Operators set tasks and delivery points, watch status and location live, and send custom commands to any single drone.
