The Internet of Matter presented on Google's Solve for X!
Talking about innovation and disruption to address the world's greatest challenges, take a look at Matternet. Matternet will do for the transportation of goods what the internet did for the sharing of information, creating a new paradigm for transportation, by using the first network of UAVs.
On Google's Solve for X first conference, Matternet presented its vision: to leapfrog road infrastructure in undeveloped countries, and enhance infrastructure in developed ones. The disruption comes with their UAVs capacity to fly 2kgs over 10kms for only US$ 0.24 cents per mission.
This alternative method of transportation provides cost-efficiency, avoids endangering the people operating the aircrafts (because it's an unmanned system), and does not rely on traditional ground or air infrastructure for deployment.
Help us develop our vision of a roadless world, where lack of infrastructure stops being an obstacle to prevent the access of people to their local markets, timely medical attention, and primary items needed for day to day living.
