REAL LIFE NEWS: BEER DRONE SET TO DELIVER AT FESTIVAL
by Hazed
Speaking of beer... If you're heading to the OppKoppi Music Festival in South Africa in August then you're in for a treat. No, I'm not talking about the music, although I am sure that will be splendid. I am referring to some new technology that will be in operation: the beer drone.
The idea is that you order a beer, presumably by phone, and it's delivered by an octocoper which will fly to your vicinity and then release it with a parachute attached.
Sounds extremely unreliable - but fun!
