Drones will be used for the delivery of donated blood and plasma

Drones will be used for the delivery of donated blood and plasma


Multicopter used in various fields, including the delivery of goods, surveillance, work on farms. All this is made possible by the development of both new batteries and motion technology drones in the air. Who is going to use the copper and medicine?


For example, the Mayo Clinic plans to start delivery of donated blood and plasma drones, helicopters instead, as is done now. The cost of operating helicopters – thousands of dollars per month. Copper will be able to perform the same function for smaller amounts.


In this case, the UAV will begin the process of delivery immediately at the request of the clinic. In the case of a helicopter process is delayed: you have to negotiate with the helicopter company, then find the pilot, download samples, and only then with the blood plasma is delivered to the base.


Under the plan, the new drones will make about 400 flights a year, bringing the plasma and blood samples at the cost of thousands of dollars.
