Es una peque\u00f1a aeronave aut\u00f3noma fabricada en cart\u00f3n biodegradable. Cuenta en su interior de los componentes necesarios para desplazarse por el aire y aterrizar en un lugar espec\u00edfico con gran precisi\u00f3n gracias a su sistema de navegaci\u00f3n (basado en los GNSS). Al ser peque\u00f1o, cientos de estos pueden ser lanzados de un avi\u00f3n de carga a gran altura, dar unas cuantas vueltas y ubicar la zona de aterrizaje. Puede llegar a su destino con unos metros de diferencia y entregar la carga.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>An American company has built a new\u00a0<strong>drone<\/strong>\u00a0that could improve the efficiency of\u00a0<strong>deliveries<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The drone is very different from other unmanned aircraft. It is made almost completely out of cardboard and has no motor. It can be packed with materials and sealed up with\u00a0<strong>tape<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Because the drones do not have a motor, they are designed to be dropped from airplanes. Hundreds of drones could be launched at once. Then they could be automatically guided to where they are supposed to go.<\/p>\n<p>The company says these drones could then complete deliveries to different places over an area covering hundreds of kilometers.<\/p>\n<p>The drones look like bigger versions of the paper airplanes we used to make as kids. But this light flyer is not a toy. It is\u00a0<strong>aerodynamically<\/strong>\u00a0designed and equipped with a small computer, a\u00a0<strong>battery<\/strong>\u00a0and sensors to guide it to the ground.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mediaReplacer externalMedia\">\n<div class=\"c-sticky-container\">\n<div id=\"sp-1\" class=\"c-sticky-element c-sticky-element--youtube c-sticky-element--3rd-party\" data-sp_api=\"youtube\" data-sp_instance_id=\"1\">\n<div class=\" external-content-rendered\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"player8753\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CPpOAhyliBA?&amp;&amp;&amp;fs=1&amp;enablejsapi=1&amp;rel=0\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-youtube_id=\"3\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The drones are being developed by\u00a0<a class=\"wsw__a\" href=\"https:\/\/otherlab.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Otherlab<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 a technology research company in San Francisco, California. It calls the drone a \u201cSky Machine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The company says it can travel about 150 kilometers at speeds up to 88 kilometers an hour. Currently, it can carry materials weighing up to one kilogram, but future models are expected to carry larger loads.<\/p>\n<p>One of the drone\u2019s main advantages is that it does not have a heavy motor or large battery. This allows more room for materials and makes the drone cost less to build and operate.<\/p>\n<p>The Otherlab development team has called its invention the \u201cIkea of drones.\u201d This is because it is packaged similarly to products from the Swedish furniture maker Ikea. The drone arrives as flat pieces of pre-cut cardboard that can be quickly and easily put together.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wsw__embed\">\n<figure class=\"media-image js-media-expand js-media-expand--ready\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n<div class=\"thumb\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" enhanced alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/gdb.voanews.com\/D0AC26DB-6E83-421C-BE46-A4DAEAC371FF_w650_r1_s.png\" alt=\"Otherlab has developed lightweight, paper drones that the company says can be dropped out of larger aircraft and then automatically guided to areas covering hundreds of kilometers.

Unlike other drones, even a crash landing is acceptable since the aircraft is\u00a0<strong>disposable<\/strong>. The company says the drones can also be reused.<\/p>\n<p>Once the drone completes its delivery, it can be thrown away and the cardboard material will likely\u00a0<strong>decompose<\/strong>\u00a0within a few months.<\/p>\n<p>The company has received money from the U.S. Department of Defense to carry out research on the drones.

The U.S. military has a need for delivery drones. But it wants to simplify and lower the cost of using them.
