Overview

Dron is a peer-to-peer drone delivery system, designed to help deliver everyday things between people. Dron utilizes 3 components: an autonomous drone, a lightweight locker and a partnered mobile application to interface with a network of delivery drones.

Design Brief

Although completely self-driving cars are still estimated to be another 20 to 35 years away, recent first attempts at mass producing autonomous vehicles for today’s cities demonstrate that designers need to start thinking about how people in the future will interact with autonomous vehicles.

The design project aims to enable interactions with autonomous vehicles by applying principles of interaction design and prototyping interactive services.

Delivery Booking

Your trip by your terms. Dron is designed to deliver your items at any time of your choosing. Book your delivery by tapping on your friends and family on our dynamic interactable map.

Item Size Selection

Unsure about the size and weight of your delivery? There’s no need to worry. We’ve introduced an intuitive slider matching the specifications of your item with common items from smallest to largest our Dron fleet can carry.

Book Multiple deliveries

We’ve designed Dron to accommodate our ever-growing over-the-air needs. Ordered by time, simply swipe up from the bottom of the screen and monitor the status of your packages.

Dron safety

Dron ensures the safety of you and your packages. We limit chance of theft or vandalism by giving you control when and
where your packages are delivered.
