Various of parachuter in air Storyline Chengdu, capital city of southwest China's Sichuan Province, launched low-altitude blood transport services to provide critical support for patients in urgent need on Thursday. Two fully loaded drones took off from the Chengdu Blood Center on the day, heading toward the Chengdu Second People's Hospital and the First People's Hospital in the city’s Longquanyi District. Equipped with high environmental adaptability, these drones transmit real-time data, including flight position and blood temperature, back to a monitoring platform throughout the journey, ensuring safe and controlled transportation. "The transportation time has been significantly reduced by more than 50 percent through low-altitude blood transport, which will become a routine operational practice in the future, effectively supporting responses to emergencies, critical illnesses, and ensuring the supply of blood, especially for rare blood types," said Kang Jianxun, deputy director of the Chengdu Blood Center. Chengdu has developed 86 low-altitude application scenarios and opened 107 manned and unmanned routes, covering areas including emergency rescue, logistics, and cultural tourism. The market scale for this sector has surpassed 100 billion yuan (about 14.27 billion U.S. dollars), reflecting its rapid growth and broad potential.
