The transport of packages by drone,
future strategic tool for major health crises

Dardilly and Tel Aviv, 8 April 2020

The drone package transport project
As part of a future project for enabling drones based services operation in urban envirionment such as delivery of parcels, the city of Tel Aviv (Israel) via its innovation implementation hub (CityZone), retained the company ParaZero to carry out, from 2020, the first experiments and proof of concept of an adapted system, ensuring the highest level of safety and reliability. These experiments will be carried out in real situations through the use of an entire district of the city.

About this very innovative project, Mrs. Liora Schechter, CIO of the Municipality of Tel Aviv said:« As part of our vision of shaping better cities for tomorrow, we see the involvment of drones as a pilar element in our vision and we are partnering with the best players to implemement it together.»

In order to present the best possible solution, and given their recent capital alliance, Delta Drone and ParaZero have naturally decided to make their design offices work together and to pool their respective know-how to build a professional solution, specifically adapted to this international project.

On the Delta Drone side, the project will be carried out using drone technology used for the ATMOS solution: for 4 years, these automatic drones of the hexacopter type have been carrying decorations weighing up to 1.5 kg in the context of the choreographies presented at Puy du Fou, with more than 4,000 flights made at night, close to the public, without any incident. It will also benefit from the technological advances of the ISS SPOTTER solution, in particular from the system's ground station which allows takeoff, landing, drone storage between two missions and automatic battery recharging.

On the ParaZero side, the Israeli company will embark on the drone its smart, autonome safety system, which is today the only drone’s safety system of this type approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to fly in an urban environment above the public. ParaZero will also benefit from its privileged place at the heart of the aeronautical industry in Israel.

Eden Attias the Chairman and MD of PARAZERO says: « This project is the first phase in implementing ParaZero’s and Delta Drone’s mutual vision to be the global leader in enabling drones services in urban environment ».
