Speaking about drones at KLU Thinks Big event

For a second year, KLU students have organised an event at which six volunteers from the faculty and student body each get a short time to discuss an issue about which they feel strongly. I contributed a session on why I do not believe that drones are going to become widely used as a mode of parcel delivery in urban areas.

My thanks to Aida Sadvakassova for doing an excellent job in editing this video.

Details of the event can be found here.

You can also download a copy of my presentation here.
