Research on relevant contents of carrier design based on unmanned aerial vehicle

Abstract

With the increasing popularity of online shopping, e-commerce has become a time-saving and labour-saving way to shop for people. Consequently, the express industry has emerged as an indispensable part of the supply chain. However, due to the shortage of human resources, express delivery services often face the challenge of overstocked delivery stations, leading to decreased efficiency in the traditional delivery mode. To address this problem, the development of a drone delivery mode that can cooperate with unmanned vehicles has been proposed. In the context of express delivery, key technologies that need to be resolved are elaborated, including UAV material structure, sensors, visual positioning and navigation technology, and path planning. By addressing these issues, this study aims to provide insights into the research and development of unmanned distribution and logistics industries. Furthermore, this study highlights existing problems and proposes solutions for the combined distribution of unmanned aerial and unmanned ground vehicles. The combination of these two modes of delivery presents both opportunities and challenges, which this study aims to identify and address. Ultimately, the findings and recommendations presented in this study contribute to the efficient and effective operation of the express delivery industry in the era of e-commerce.
