argodesign's Drone Ambulance Concept

Always good to see a practical application of burgeoning technologies. As a part of FastCoDesign’s “Body Week” highlight series, here we turn our attentions to a submission by Texas-based argodesign – who has addressed the problems of accident response times with a concept for drone ambulances. Designed to be operated by a single pilot, the GPS-guided saucer would make use of four rotating propellers and be able to nimbly, precisely respond to accidents, avoiding traffic along the way. What’s more, a single fleet of these nifty drones would could be controlled by one person at a central location, which means the ability to scale is near infinite.
