Canada conducted its first commercial trial of a beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drone operation earlier this month by dropping off some prescriptions to a patient on an island off the coast of British Columbia. Indro Robotics partnered with Canada Post to deliver an EpiPen and naloxone from a drugstore to a resident on Saltspring Island. A second delivery was made the same day to a grocery store. The drone made the four-mile flight in a few minutes whereas delivering the package by road and ferry would have taken most of a day.
