The urban skies could soon witness a revolution if the trajectory of drone technology continues its rapid ascent. In cities worldwide, the congestion on roads and environmental concerns prompt the need for more innovative approaches to delivery. Drones, with their ability to zip across the sky bypassing traffic, could be the messengers of the future. But are they poised to wholly replace traditional delivery methods like trucks and vans within the next five years ?
