Intermountain Health will use it to deliver prescriptions to\npatients\u2019 homes in the Salt Lake City metro area. MultiCare Health System plans\nto use the new platform to expedite diagnostics and deliver prescriptions and\nmedical devices throughout MultiCare\u2019s network of facilities, including\nhospitals, laboratories and doctors\u2019 offices. And Zipline\u2019s first customer, the\nGovernment of Rwanda, will use the company\u2019s new home delivery service to\nenable urban aerial last-mile delivery to homes, hotels and health facilities\nin Kigali and elsewhere in the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zipline\u2019s end-to-end solution seamlessly integrates with a\nbusiness\u2019s current operations. That includes its dual use docking and charging\nhardware, software that easily works with third-party inventory management and\nordering systems, an intuitive app that allows order tracking down to the\nsecond, and an autonomy system that has already guided the flight paths of 40\nmillion commercial miles. Zipline designed its docking and charging hardware to\nhave a light footprint that can be attached to any building or set up as a\nfreestanding structure. A Zip can be easily loaded by a business\u2019 employee who\ncan send off orders in seconds, right from their location, without even having\nto leave the kitchen, pharmacy or doctors\u2019 office. Businesses can offer\nZipline\u2019s home delivery service in a variety of ways, including native\nintegrations into apps and websites, white labeled opportunities, and by\njoining Zipline\u2019s marketplace. Customers can make on-demand orders or schedule\nthe exact time they\u2019d like their package to arrive, down to the second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each P2 Zip has a 10-mile service radius while carrying a 6\u20138-pound\npayload for out-and-back deliveries from a single dock. Alternatively, it can\nalso fly up to 24 miles one way from dock to dock, charging at each dock before\npicking up its next delivery. Because Zips can move from dock to dock, Zipline\ncan dynamically respond to peak order times \u2013 ensuring there\u2019s enough delivery\ncapacity for an urgent prescription delivery or a busy Friday pizza night or\nweekday lunch rush. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOver the last decade, global demand for instant delivery\nhas skyrocketed, but the technology we\u2019re using to deliver is 100 years old.\nWe\u2019re still using the same 3,000-pound, gas combustion vehicles, driven by\nhumans, to make billions of deliveries that usually weigh less than 5 pounds.\nIt\u2019s slow, it\u2019s expensive, and it\u2019s terrible for the planet,\u201d said Keller\nRinaudo Cliffton, co-founder and CEO of Zipline. \u201cOur new service is changing\nthat and will finally make deliveries work for you and around your schedule. We\nhave built the closest thing to teleportation ever created – a smooth, ultrafast,\nconvenient, and truly magical autonomous logistics system that serves all\npeople equally, wherever they are.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zipline plans to conduct high-volume flight tests this year\ninvolving more than 10,000 test flights using about 100 aircraft. The first\ncustomer deployment of P2 will follow shortly after that. Zipline\u2019s record for\nsafety has been proven over the past seven years of operations and over more\nthan 500,000 commercial flights. Its long-range platform, P1, has autonomously\nflown 40 million miles worth of commercial deliveries through all kinds of\nweather without a safety incident \u2013 the vast majority of which were flights\nflown beyond visual line of sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zipline has received Part 135 certification, is authorized\nto complete the longest-range, on-demand commercial drone flights in America,\nand recently received FAA approval to enable its onboard autonomous detect and\navoid system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zipline completed more deliveries in 2022 than in all\nprevious years combined and is planning to complete about 1 million deliveries\nby the end of 2023. By 2025, Zipline expects to operate more flights annually\nthan most airlines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
