Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
All right, so you see this?
0:01
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
This is a drone.
0:04
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And when I say drone delivery,
0:07
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I think most people picture something like this trying to
0:12
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
deliver packages,
0:13
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
which is just,
0:15
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that's ridiculous.
0:16
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
That's way too much.
0:17
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But the thing is,
0:19
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I've been looking into drone delivery for the past little bit,
0:21
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and it is very,
0:22
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
very different than that.
0:24
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And I also thought we were supposed to have drone delivery by now.
0:27
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So let's talk about it.
0:37
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
All right, here's a crazy stat.
0:38
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
85 % of all of Amazon's deliveries
0:42
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
are under five pounds.
0:44
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
85%.
0:46
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And that's from Amazon's own numbers when talking about their own aerial delivery service
0:50
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that they've been pouring millions of dollars in development for years into.
0:54
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And then I saw videos of it,
0:55
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and it looks like this.
0:57
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
This thing hovers down to like 15 feet off the ground,
1:01
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
drops the package on the ground,
1:03
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and then the propellers kind of blow it away.
1:06
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And then it takes off again.
1:07
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
This seems a little insane to me.
1:10
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I'm obviously not going to trust this with anything fragile.
1:12
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I would never order a GPU or a smartphone and watch it
1:16
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
get dropped on the ground like that.
1:17
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's also going to be loud.
1:18
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And that thing is huge,
1:19
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
if you can tell by the scale of the stuff in the videos.
1:22
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So they started testing in California and Texas,
1:25
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but I haven't really heard much from them otherwise on that.
1:28
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Apparently,
1:29
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Alphabet also has a project called Wing,
1:31
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
another drone delivery system.
1:32
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
The website...
1:33
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's very promising,
1:34
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but I punched in my own address and a bunch of others,
1:37
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and I can't seem to find any areas where they're actually doing this.
1:40
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So maybe if these huge companies aren't nailing it,
1:43
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
then it's just not practical in general,
1:46
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and it's not something we can expect anytime soon.
1:49
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But on the other hand,
1:50
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I feel like I can think of just a couple nice,
1:52
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
neat little examples,
1:54
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
these perfect little use cases where it makes a ton of sense.
1:58
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like let's say you're a new parent at home and you just ran out of baby formula and you need
2:02
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
more of it ASAP,
2:03
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but you can't really leave the house with the baby.
2:05
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Drone delivery.
2:06
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Or maybe I'm out somewhere in a remote place and I cut myself and I need first
2:10
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
aid and a car can't get to me,
2:13
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but a helicopter is a little bit overkill.
2:16
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
drone delivery or even just for that DoorDash.
2:18
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like surely,
2:19
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
surely we don't need a 4 ,000 pound private
2:24
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
taxi for our burrito every single time,
2:27
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
right?
2:28
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Drone delivery.
2:29
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So I'm digging into this and it turns out there is one company that is huge
2:34
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
in this space,
2:35
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
far bigger than the other big companies I've been looking at.
2:38
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And they are by far the largest autonomous drone delivery
2:42
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
fleet in the world at this point.
2:44
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
They're called Zipline.
2:46
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And what they've been showing is way more advanced than anything from Google
2:50
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
or Amazon.
2:51
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So I had to go check it out for myself.
2:54
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
They didn't sponsor this video or anything like that.
2:56
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Basically, they were just nice enough to pull back the curtain and let me ask a bunch of questions
3:01
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that I have about drone delivery.
3:03
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And now I have all the answers.
3:05
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
All
3:12
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
right, finally,
3:13
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
a nice weekend out in the middle of nowhere.
3:15
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Just me and a frisbee.
3:17
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And I think I forgot my
3:21
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
power bank.
3:23
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
That's crazy.
3:23
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
The one thing I need.
3:24
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Hold on a second.
3:25
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Let me just place an order.
3:27
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And done.
3:30
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It says ETA 30 seconds.
3:33
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Okay,
3:35
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
great. Yeah.
3:36
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Perfect.
3:38
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
20
3:43
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
or so more seconds.
3:44
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Yeah,
3:50
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that tracks.
3:51
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Appreciate
4:04
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
you. That's
4:08
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
exactly what I needed.
4:09
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Let the vacation begin.
4:11
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like I said.
4:14
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Probably one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
4:16
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Very advanced.
4:16
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Now, Zipline has been doing autonomous drone delivery since 2016,
4:21
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but it didn't start off this advanced.
4:23
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Their first -generation product matured into this thing right here,
4:26
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
known as Platform One.
4:28
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Less of a drone,
4:29
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
more of a fixed -wing autonomous aircraft,
4:31
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but it was assembled on launch site with whatever cargo is going into
4:35
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
it, launched from a giant slingshot,
4:38
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
dropped to the delivery location by coming out of the bottom of the drone with a parachute.
4:43
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And then it would turn around and fly back home where it was caught out
4:47
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
of the air by a huge string on a hook at the tail of the craft.
4:51
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I got to watch them demo all of this.
4:53
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It is exactly as insane as it sounds.
4:55
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like the launch is crazy.
4:56
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It basically slingshots it from zero to 60 miles an hour.
5:00
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
in a quarter of a second.
5:01
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And the catch is even more insane.
5:04
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
If you watch it in slow motion,
5:05
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
these arms holding onto the wire actually move at the last
5:09
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
second to snag the drone out of the air with precision.
5:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And there's millions of other tiny impressive pieces of tech that make
5:16
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this work.
5:17
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
As complicated as this is,
5:18
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this is what essentially became the first autonomous drone delivery system
5:23
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
at scale.
5:24
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And it's had massive success delivering...
5:27
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
blood and other medical supplies to hospitals around Rwanda.
5:31
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So it's saved thousands and thousands of lives to
5:35
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this point and actually continues to to this day.
5:37
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
There's a real engineering video from six years ago about this.
5:40
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
There's also a Mark Rober video from one year ago.
5:42
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
They both show this really well.
5:44
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I'll leave those videos linked below the like button.
5:45
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But they've iterated since then.
5:47
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And now their current generation,
5:49
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
aka Platform 2,
5:50
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
is...
5:52
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Just incredible.
5:54
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
This is the most advanced drone delivery system we've ever seen.
5:58
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So it's made up of one drone with both articulating propellers
6:02
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and a fixed wing,
6:03
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and then a smaller sort of droid that zip lines out of
6:07
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
the bottom of it to gently place the delivery on the ground
6:11
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
with dinner plate precision.
6:14
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
hence the name zipline so here's a closer look at the drone p2
6:18
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
in its docking station so it's actually docked from the top and
6:22
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this is where it takes off from and comes back the bottom part here is where
6:26
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that zipline drone comes out but you can see the rest of the body is actually mainly styrofoam
6:31
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and this wing here carbon fiber super rigid super light
6:35
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
weight is at an ultra premium the batteries stored up in the front here and
6:40
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this entire thing with the motors the propellers
6:43
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this articulating propeller to switch between forward flight and hover flight 55
6:48
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
pounds which is pretty ridiculous so then this is the zip this is the little droid that
6:52
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
gets lowered down from this point here to actually deliver the package and
6:56
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
there's still a ton of tech on this as well first of all this is how they load it up all
7:00
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
carbon fiber on the inside
7:02
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
The bottom is the two doors,
7:04
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
which is the floor,
7:05
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but it also slides left to right to open,
7:07
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and it has these feet.
7:08
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But then it has the thrusters.
7:10
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So this is the big thruster on the back,
7:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
which can move it forward and backward.
7:13
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But there's also some right here and right here,
7:17
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
which can combine to turn it and change its orientation.
7:20
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So it's using all of that,
7:21
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
plus the sensors at the bottom to see what's below it,
7:24
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
to orient itself,
7:25
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
to place it exactly where it needs to be,
7:27
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
open the floor,
7:28
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
drop it off,
7:29
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and then zip right up.
7:31
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And it weighs like five pounds.
7:32
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's crazy light.
7:34
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So here comes the drone.
7:37
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
This is how it works.
7:38
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's relatively quiet.
7:40
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's going to stay about 100 meters off the ground,
7:44
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
about a football field,
7:45
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
right? So then once it's narrowed down exactly where it's going to lower
7:49
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
the zip line,
7:50
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
it knows exactly where it wants to drop it.
7:52
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So it's not like it'll accidentally end up on the roof or in the pool or some random place.
7:56
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Okay.
7:57
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Now any second,
7:59
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
it should start dropping.
7:59
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
There it goes.
8:03
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So it actually descends pretty quickly,
8:05
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
which I guess shouldn't be surprising.
8:08
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's gravity assisted.
8:09
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But now it's going to drop down and it's actually looking at the ground.
8:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So if something does get in the way and if there's a dog there,
8:16
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
some random unexpected something,
8:18
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
then it will sort of move around and adjust.
8:20
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But drops
8:26
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
it off, floor opens,
8:29
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
floor closes,
8:30
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and then it gets pulled back up like a fishing line.
8:33
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And there's the thing that I ordered.
8:35
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
There is just an incredible amount of tech making this happen autonomously.
8:39
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
GPS,
8:39
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
computer vision,
8:41
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
material science.
8:42
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And it's just,
8:43
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
it's so cool that it all comes together and actually works.
8:45
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But I know if you're anything like me,
8:46
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
you're watching this and it's cool and everything,
8:48
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but you still have a ton of questions in the back of your head,
8:50
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
logically speaking,
8:51
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
about how this can work.
8:52
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And don't worry,
8:54
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I had the same questions,
8:54
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
so I asked them.
8:56
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And these are the answers.
9:03
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Okay, so probably the number one question,
9:05
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
how loud is it?
9:07
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Because I don't want drone deliveries if it means I have to hear this
9:11
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
loud buzzing sound all day.
9:13
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
That would be terrible.
9:13
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And so the answer is actually really encouraging.
9:17
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So they have a whole team of people working on the acoustical engineering problem,
9:21
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that is quiet drones.
9:22
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And they're messing with different propeller designs and algorithms to spin the propellers
9:27
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
at different speeds during different stages of flight to minimize harmonics.
9:31
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
combine all that with the clever zipline method which means the drone never
9:35
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
actually gets below about a hundred yards up like a football field
9:39
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
away from people when it starts dropping a little droid and so the result is it's
9:43
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
actually shockingly quiet especially when compared to like a normal consumer drone like a
9:47
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
dji navic or something which has this really piercing sound
10:00
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So okay then,
10:01
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
another question.
10:02
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
How long does a drone delivery actually take?
10:05
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So let's just stick with the classic food delivery example,
10:09
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
right? So first of all,
10:10
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
the restaurant still has to make the food.
10:11
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
That takes the same amount of time.
10:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Then...
10:14
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
they have to get it picked up by the drone.
10:16
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Now, there's a theoretical future where restaurants and other small businesses can have
10:20
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this drop -off point that's essentially a hole in the wall that they just put the order
10:24
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
in for the drone to pick it up from.
10:25
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It would have to be relatively inconspicuous,
10:28
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but even for companies that don't want to do all that,
10:30
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
they've prototyped these standalone passive structures.
10:34
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So the idea is to make it easy for the restaurant to just walk outside and leave
10:38
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
the package in the structure where the drone can pick it up with a zipline system.
10:42
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I actually saw a demo of this working as well,
10:44
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and it was technically pretty impressive.
10:46
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Once fulfillment happens,
10:47
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
the average food app delivery is three to five miles,
10:51
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and so that's well within the 20 -mile range of this thing,
10:53
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and they cruise at 70 miles an hour.
10:57
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So theoretically,
10:58
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
there's a world where you order something online,
11:00
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and once it's packaged,
11:01
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
you get your delivery in three to five minutes.
11:04
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So okay then,
11:05
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
what if it's windy or raining?
11:07
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Can it still work?
11:10
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Turns out,
11:10
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
yeah,
11:11
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
absolutely it can.
11:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Not only are these things rock solid,
11:14
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but they're designed specifically to be able to fly in basically anything
11:18
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
short of hurricane force winds.
11:19
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like I said,
11:20
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
they cruise at 70 miles an hour,
11:21
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
so they have some power.
11:22
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And the whole thing is waterproof the same way a car is waterproof.
11:26
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like it has to be able to withstand getting pelted by water at every angle.
11:30
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And I did witness a pretty windy delivery before we started rolling our cameras.
11:33
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It was also at night,
11:34
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but the thing dropped down our food successfully right in front of us,
11:38
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and it was fine.
11:39
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Really, the goal should just be to be able to do anything that a regular delivery truck could
11:43
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
do, plus all the benefits of being cheaper,
11:46
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
quieter,
11:47
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
faster,
11:48
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
fully electric,
11:49
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and working 24 -7.
11:51
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So then the elephant in the room question is just basically,
11:54
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
is it safe?
11:55
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like, I think everyone's basically wondering,
11:58
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
could one of these drones potentially fall out of the sky like what if a propeller breaks or something and
12:02
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
so as you can imagine the people designing this system know this is a huge deal and they
12:06
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
want to avoid any sort of liability issues so they have engineered this
12:10
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
system to be absolutely ridiculously bulletproof there's redundancies
12:14
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
through every critical system and all the wiring so you can they told me you can literally cut
12:19
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
a wire inside this thing and it'll still fly home it can lose not one but two
12:23
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
propellers
12:24
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and still fly home and the internal systems are performing 500 safety checks per second
12:28
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and of course is doing autonomous obstacle avoidance and even talking
12:33
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
to other zipline drones in the area to do these coordinated movements
12:37
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
with each other but then okay of course if all else fails there is
12:41
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
a parachute system so if it must fall out of the sky it will at least fall
12:45
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
slowly
12:46
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
The end result, or at least the current result,
12:48
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
is they have flown 100 million miles so far with zero
12:52
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
safety incidents involving humans.
12:55
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's a hundred million miles.
12:56
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's a pretty good start.
12:57
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Now it's still early and there's notoriously always a difference between testing
13:02
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and real life,
13:04
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but they have tested heavy crosswinds.
13:07
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
They've tested obscured,
13:09
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
you know, weird landing spots changing,
13:11
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
someone pulling on the zipline while it's delivering,
13:13
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
all that stuff.
13:14
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
In case you're wondering,
13:16
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
it'll just cut the zipline free if it detects that to avoid crashing at all
13:20
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
costs.
13:26
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Okay, so I've seen a lot here.
13:27
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
The evolution from their first generation to the second generation vehicle,
13:31
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
their massive testing facility with all these docks and dozens of drones launching
13:35
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and flying simultaneously,
13:37
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and their manufacturing facility too,
13:39
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
the component testing,
13:40
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
acoustic engineering.
13:41
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Big shout out to Zipline for pulling back the curtain on all the work they've been doing
13:45
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and how far they've come.
13:46
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It was cool to see this stuff.
13:47
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So now in my head,
13:48
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I'm trying to fast forward a few years and imagine a future where this is successful.
13:53
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like what does that world...
13:55
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
actually look like and i think there's a path to
13:59
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
this being real i've spoken to doctors and hospitals in rwanda who vouched
14:03
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
very directly for countless lives saved by drones
14:07
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
delivering blood for transfusions or anesthesia drugs for emergency surgeries
14:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
so that's a pretty obvious and convincing use case that this will
14:16
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
continue to be useful this won't replace
14:20
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Amazon deliveries for people who live in apartments or people who live super
14:24
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
far from retail shops.
14:25
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But for certain specific deliveries,
14:28
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I think the benefit is undeniable.
14:31
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
There's no human needed.
14:32
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's dramatically cheaper.
14:34
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's much faster.
14:35
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's quiet.
14:36
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's emissions -free.
14:37
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And it works 24 -7.
14:39
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It also turns out Rwanda was a pretty ideal first place to start testing.
14:43
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Small country,
14:45
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
hilly,
14:46
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
lots of thunderstorms,
14:47
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
windy.
14:49
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And also with a government that's willing to work with them on a lot of
14:53
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
regulation.
14:53
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Because regulation,
14:54
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
especially in the U .S.,
14:57
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
like it's a lot of work.
14:58
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
There's different classes of airspace,
15:00
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
all the different rules.
15:01
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So just in general,
15:03
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
that's something you need like an entire department for.
15:06
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
So ultimately, here's my take.
15:07
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Drone delivery.
15:09
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Super cool.
15:10
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Very technically impressive.
15:12
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
It's not going to be for everything.
15:14
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Trucks aren't going anywhere.
15:15
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But for very specific deliveries that are both small
15:20
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
and time sensitive,
15:21
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
drone delivery can actually make the most sense.
15:25
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I'm picturing I fly to some tech
15:29
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
event somewhere.
15:29
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I didn't rent a car.
15:30
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I've gotten there with my camera,
15:32
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
but I forgot my memory card and I need it pretty quick.
15:35
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
drone delivery.
15:36
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Like fly the thing to wherever I'm at,
15:37
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
drop it off.
15:38
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
I would love to live in a world where that is possible.
15:41
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
This very much feels like it unlocks a new dimension of travel
15:45
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
for a few specific things.
15:47
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Some things that were impossible or impractical with a vehicle.
15:50
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And also some things where it literally means one less vehicle on the road.
15:54
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
And it was cool to see a relatively small company innovating and
15:58
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
competing with the big dogs on this.
16:00
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Now I've seen these things fly high enough and fast enough that they're basically invisible.
16:04
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
in the sky before they come down to do the delivery so
16:08
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
i'm not worried as much about noise pollution but i am a little bit about
16:13
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
visual pollution particularly in the night sky
16:17
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
like in the same way that like starlink is incredibly
16:21
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
useful for internet around the world but is concerning for the
16:26
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
view of the night sky but that's a
16:27
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
whole nother video for another day.
16:30
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
But yeah, only time will tell if people are ready for this.
16:34
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Thanks for watchin'.
16:37
S…
Speaker 2 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Catch you guys the next one.
16:38
S…
Speaker 1 (The Truth about Drone Deliveries!)
Peace.
