Despite the remarkable progress in transplant over 65 years, organ transportation has not been innovated. The current system is challenged by expense, time, and safety. Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) capable of on-demand life-urgent delivery of organs, blood, and medications may represent a pathway toward saving lives in transplant and beyond.¹

In the last 5 years, dramatic advances in UAS technologies have been realized. Unmanned aircraft system technologies allow for ranges of more than 1000 miles, speeds faster than 150 miles per hour, and vertical takeoff and landing. Further, artificial intelligence technologies have ushered in a new era of autonomous flight, allowing for pilotless travel. Our group recently showed that UAS technologies can be used to move human organs.¹

尽管65年来移植取得了显着进展，但器官运输尚未创新。当前系统面临费用，时间和安全性的挑战。能够按需紧急提供器官，血液和药物的无人机系统（UAS）可能代表着挽救移植及其他生命的途径。^1个

在过去的五年中，UAS技术取得了巨大进步。无人飞机系统技术可实现超过1000英里的航程，每小时超过150英里的速度以及垂直起降。此外，人工智能技术已经迎来了自动飞行的新时代，允许无人驾驶旅行。我们的小组最近表明，UAS技术可用于移动人体器官。^1个
