Several industries have explored the possibility of delivering a variety of goods with a drone. For example, a drone delivery system has been used in African countries to deliver medicines and blood supplies to remote areas. Also, delivery companies, such as Amazon, have explored delivering packages with drones instead of ground transportation.
Teams will participate in a package delivery activity that simulates the delivery of packages using Hopper. With limited range and multiple packages to be delivered, teams must create the most efficient autonomous flight path to complete as many deliveries as possible within a specific time period.
