\n Gurugram is now home to India's first fully automated delivery service, utilizing drones and AI robots for contactless package fulfillment. Get ready for the future of deliveries!\n

Automated Delivery Unveiled

In a significant leap for logistics and technology, Gurugram has become the testing ground for India's inaugural completely hands-free delivery system.

\n \n

This ambitious project, spearheaded by utilizing advanced aerial drones and intelligent autonomous robots, marks a pivotal moment in the nation's adoption of cutting-edge AI. The service, revealed at the India AI Impact Summit, builds upon an impressive track record of 3.6 million successful drone flights and has already contributed to saving over 1,000 tons of carbon emissions, underscoring a commitment to both efficiency and environmental responsibility. This innovation signifies a paradigm shift, moving away from traditional delivery methods towards a fully automated future where human intervention is minimized throughout the entire delivery chain, from dispatch to final drop-off.

\n\n

Seamless Delivery Process

The innovative delivery pipeline begins with specialized drones, capable of carrying packages weighing up to 10 kilograms, navigating to designated smart mailboxes known as 'Arrive Points.' Upon arrival, the package is transferred to autonomous robots developed by Ottonomy. These robots then undertake the final leg of the journey, delivering directly to the customer's door. Authentication for the delivery is managed through a simple One-Time Password (OTP) system, ensuring security and convenience. The entire operation is orchestrated by Skye's sophisticated traffic management system, which is designed to ensure that all deliveries are conducted safely, efficiently, and without any disruptions, creating a smooth and reliable customer experience from start to finish.

\n\n

Expansion Plans Ahead

Following successful trials and operations in various locations, Gurugram is now slated for a comprehensive citywide rollout of this revolutionary delivery service. The drones deployed are designed for short-to-medium distance flights, capable of covering multiple kilometers per trip. Importantly, each delivery executed by this system results in a reduction of over 500 grams of emissions, highlighting its significant environmental benefits. With Gurugram set to experience full-scale implementation, there are ambitious plans to extend this service to other major cities across India, with aspirations to eventually expand both nationally and on a global scale, positioning the company at the forefront of worldwide autonomous delivery solutions.
