ERI (drone post office)

2023: Product Creation

In Russia, a drone post office has been developed, which, without human participation, can deliver parcels and documents to the client. Nikolai Ryashin, CEO of Rusdronoport (developed this product), spoke about the advantages of the technology and its appearance on the market.

Russian developers have created a drone post office to which a drone can deliver parcels and documents without human participation, including to hard-to-reach areas, he said.

Drone can deliver parcels and documents without human involvement

Up to two parcels can be stored in the post office. Working with a post office in a pair, equipped with a mechanism for capturing cargo containers, the delivery drone can fly at speeds of up to 60 km/h for 60 minutes for a distance of up to 15 km and carry up to 5 kg of cargo.

The creators believe that the development will be popular with logistics companies and online markets. Ryashin claims that the cost of delivery will decrease and will range from 200 rubles per parcel. This was achieved due to the autonomy of the post office drone port. The developers excluded the human factor in delivery and automated the process, reducing data processing time. At the same time, the system covers an area of ​ ​ about three square meters and can operate at temperatures from -20 to + 45 degrees.

Drone control takes place through the mission control center. A single operator can monitor up to seven drone ports at a time. The recipient of the package can track the track of the cargo and after delivery will receive a notification.

Sales of new items will start during 2023. Its customers can be logistics companies and online stores.

Previously, we produced a line of similar drone ports, but the new product has a number of design and software advantages available to customers. The main orientation in our approach was to make the product as simplified as possible in its design (both the station and the drone). On the other hand, work on reliability and fault tolerance in order to get a balance between the cost of capital expenditures and the need to repair it, "Ryashin said in an interview with RIA Novosti[1]
