DRONAMICS will participate in a project meant to use drones to deliver healthcare services in Scotland more efficiently, reports London's Air Cargo News.
Care & Equity - Healthcare Logistics UAS Scotland (CAELUS) is a consortium led by AGS Airports that will develop and trial the UK's first national distribution network.
It will use drones to transport essential medicines, blood, organs, and other medical supplies throughout Scotland.
The CAELUS consortium is trying to establish a national drone delivery network for medical supplies across Scotland.
'The CAELUS project is set to revolutionise the way in which healthcare services are delivered in Scotland,' said AGS Airports CAELUS project director Fiona Smith.
'A drone network can ensure critical medical supplies can be delivered more efficiently, it can reduce waiting times for test results, and, more importantly, it can provide equity of care between urban and remote rural communities.'
Said dronamics co-founder Svilen Rangelov: 'This is an excellent opportunity for us to kick-off operations in the UK by leveraging our authorisation experience in the EU with EASA.
'The flight trials for NHS Scotland would also validate our ongoing product development towards delivering medical goods. We have seen that our solution could be vital for remote communities in Scotland, drastically decreasing the transit time for medical supplies.'
