Drones are delivering medical supplies and personal protective equipment to a Novant Health Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, according to an article on The Verge website.
It may be the longest-range drone delivery service that’s been approved in the U.S.
The service has begun by delivering supplies to Novant Health’s Huntersville medical center from a depot next to its facility in Kannapolis, N.C..
Once the drones reach their destination, they drop the supplies via parachute, meaning the center doesn’t need any additional infrastructure to receive deliveries.
