mP1 agree with you, i am living in africa and where there are no road or cellular connection there are very poor people with almost no money and no money to be made from them, thats why there are no road or cellular connection.

The LAST things this poor people need at the moment is a car or a cellular connection or a facebook or gmail account, because there is not even electricity to charge a mobile phone....

Would be nice to see some real machines or facts instead of pie in the sky dreams.

If I were a bit younger I would find your proposal very attractive (maybe except for the bitter cold part, don't like cold).

Here is a link to a previous DIYD blog post about Matternet.

Not if the govt over-regulates the community and bans autonomous and FPV flying altogether!

It's all and good to say that this is the future, but we have to speak up now or that future will never happen!

Not sure why everyone is so caught up with regulation. Autonomous flight will be the norm, not the exception. Todays innovators will be the ones reaping the benefits 10 years from now.

@Hugues, That's exactly the problem.
It slows down so ingenious ways. Too bad but we are just humans.
With all the trimmings :)

Biggest challenge of this project is not technical but regulatory. Unfortunately as bright a mind can be, it can't change the stupidity of EU bureaucrats who will impose their "commercial drone forbidden - except if you're a big DOD supplier" regulation a across the 28 member states.

I have all of those requirements in Finland already ;-)

I believe you guys are working on the next big thing after the internet! How is the development going? I'd love to see some pictures of prototypes :)
