Unmanned aerial vehicles for logistics applications

Unmanned aerial vehicles for logistics are attracting increasing attention in recent years because of their important contribution and cost effective application in many tasks. In this paper, the logistics applications of unmanned aerial vehicles is investigated, which shows the problems in the development of our country's unmanned aerial vehicles. A research design decision method for the applications of unmanned aerial vehicles in logistics is given, which can be used to determine the feasibility of unmanned aerial vehicles for logistics applications. At last, key technology in the development of logistical unmanned aerial vehicles is summarized, which should be paid more attention in the future.
