Book rental via unmanned aerial vehicle

Books used in undergraduate programs in Australia are expensive so students tend to rent rather than buy. It is important to find out which way is most convenient for students to easily rent books. Zookal has partnered with Ozzie to launch a unique program called Flirtey, which will help deliver books to the needy through unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Students will use the Zookal software installed on their phone to order and track the GPS coordinates. Then an unmanned aerial vehicle will transport the book to the wanted person.

This type of unmanned aerial vehicle has six propellers, uses low energy, is equipped with a self propelled system to avoid collisions with branches, buildings ... It will steal books in coordinates which GPS provides and slowly land to hand over the book to the user. The book reader can check its progress through the smartphone application.

Following the Flirtey test of successful book delivery, UAVs not only operate in Australia but also extend to the world and deliver different types of goods. "This technology is growing with the help of technology from the University of Sydney and the initial offering of books will also be available to many students," said Gizmag magazine quoted co-founder and co-founder of Flirtey.
