The following examples still sound like scenarios in the future: people flying to the nearest cinema or restaurant in air taxis, blood and tissue samples being transported by drone from a hospital to the closest laboratory.
Nonetheless the Unisphere company is already working to implement those scenarios into our daily life. As Jens Freiter, the event’s speaker and start-up investor, said:

From Vision to Flight Planning Infrastructure
Unisphere wants to enable companies and individuals to use drones without having to obtain a drone flying license. The company, which is based in Constance, has developed an automated flight planning system that calculates the optimal flight route for users by taking the following factors into account:
Weather Data
Airspace Information
Battery status of the unmanned aircraft

Christoph Schlettig, one of the two founders of Unisphere, reports that the company has already started pilot projects with the Friedrichshafen-based supplier ZF in which a drone transports spare parts from warehouse to production line over a busy intersection.
