Paving the way for in-flight drone package exchanges
Our Idea
We seek to make package exchanges between drones possible. Currently we are developing a technology for coupling two drones together, which will pave the way for in-flight package exchanges.
You can see on the picture the high-level process:
- Dispatch of fixed wing from logistics hub flying towards the final destination
- Multicopter drone dispatches and flies automatically towards the fixed wing drone
- The two drones physically connect autonomously in the air and exchange the package using Future Delivery Technology
- The multicopter drone decouples and safely delivers the package to the final destination
- The fixed wing returns to the logistics hub
Advantages
Application
• There is no need to land for exchanging packages.
• With our technology efficient, bi-directional transport ways will be possible.
• Higher range and payload capacity compared to hybrid solutions.
• Low noise pollution and intrusion into every-day life.
Technology
• Worldwide unique and sole solution for coupling drones.
• Coupling mechanism will be used for exchanging packages between drones.
• Compensation of relative drone movements.
• Active movement control when coupling and decoupling for collision avoidance.
Use Cases and functionality
Bilateral Medical Transport
With our technology travelling doctors and hard to reach places can be supplied with drugs and send samples into the lab.

Package Delivery
With our technology, packages can be delivered to whole urban areas without the need for a centralized storage. This combined with avoidance of traffic allows for one-hour deliveries and a way to differentiate by logistic.
