The Korea Aerospace Agency recently conducted a field test of a novel delivery system connecting drones with robots, designed to transport heavy cargo without physical contact, according to a press release from the agency. The system, which has been under field verification since March, was jointly developed by the Korea Aerospace Agency (KASA) and the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI).
The delivery system is a groundbreaking innovation, enabling drones to collaborate with robots to deliver items to precise destinations. The KASA and ETRI are currently assessing the system's performance and safety in various scenarios. Following the successful test, the two institutions plan to expand field tests to other regions in the south Gyeongsang Province, beginning later this month.
