Service for Airborne Fundamental Equipment Delivery by Remotely Operated Platforms

It is well known that the initial field of use of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS, commonly known as drones) was the military one, but nowadays they are used in a huge number of civilian tasks such as agriculture, cinematography, and on demand transport of goods and services and many other applications are in development. Particularly, the healthcare area is a prime concern, and during the Covid-19 pandemic the considerable potential of drones was highlighted both in terms of contrasting and overcoming the emergency. Indeed, their applications included monitoring for prevention, sanitization, and transfer (deliveries / collections) of material without approaching between operators and users of the service. This paper presents the service for equipment delivery by drone remotely operated, performed using drones for the delivery or picking up of small and medium-sized objects to/from the home of people subjected to quarantine. The users of these services can include all those who are affected by pathologies similar to the pandemic disease Covid-19 and who are forced into quarantine situations, finding themselves in an asymptomatic or symptomatic state.
