WHERE ARE ALL THE D R O N E S ?

After years of hype about drones capable of delivering packages, groceries, lunch—nearly any item that one could think of—where are they now? And why aren’t they more prevalent today? The reality is that they are prevalent, all around us—but we don’t see them because commercial drones have been working mostly behind the scenes in many sectors. From inspecting buildings to monitoring construction sites to capturing virtual tour videos, commercial drones have been making a significant impact for years, and the industry is poised for even more growth, especially in the delivery and logistics industries.
