BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in
understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the
information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed
invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] With the rising demand for education and space for a new building,
the size of universities are increasing, and in a university it is quite difficult and time-consuming for staff members to exchange files and other necessary documents, as they have to send a person or go by themselves to deliver necessary documents. Therefore, there is a need of automatic delivery of parcels to authorized person on a preferred location.
[0004] Drones are unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) that are either
manually controlled, such as via a radio controller, or autonomously functioning so as to follow, e.g., a programmed route. Drones offer the promise of rapid and consistent automated aerial parcel delivery. However, no comprehensive system that enables widespread or ubiquitous drone parcel delivery currently exists, particularly with respect to delivery of parcels within different location in a building. Furthermore, no standard or standardized technique exists for accurately delivery of a parcel in a building. Moreover, existing aerial drone are undesirably limited in their capabilities. Also, to receive and/or send the parcels inside the building conveniently, solution for the landing and take-off of the drone is required, as a proper place of landing and take-off is not available in various part of building.
[0005] While delivering parcels, there are chances that the parcels or
object carried by the drone becomes disengaged and drops from the drone, thus a

mechanism is required that can hold the parcels in a proper way to reduce chances of dropping of the parcels.
[0006] There is, therefore, a need in the art to provide a means to
overcome above-mentioned and other limitations, and provide an efficient, reliable, and cost-effective means to facilitate in providing safe and accurate delivery within a building using drones.
