Fast forward 10-20 years, above your house is the constant whirr of hundreds of drones going back and forth above your property every single minute of every day.
One drone is fun, hundreds need more thinking through.
- ollysb 13y agoI imagine they'd have to be limited to vertical paths anywhere near the ground, otherwise as you say the noise of hundreds of drones would be unbearable. I don't see any reason why there shouldn't be a few stations around urban areas for silent landing/launching i.e. nets for drones to drop into(potentially assisted by small parachute/wings) and launchers(catapults etc.) to get them out of earshot before they fire up their motors. You'd still have a little activity in the last few meters but how many deliveries are actually delivered to a particular area per hour?
