A secure container for transport of pharmaceuticals includes an onboard computing system, sensor devices, and tamper response mechanisms. The container can collect geodata to determine when it is in range of a target destination for a recipient. The recipient will be permitted to request access to the contents of the container only when the container is in designated range. In addition, if the container detects a tamper event where force is applied in order to open the container, a tamper response can be triggered that releases a neutralization agent and causes any chemical compounds held in the container to become inert.

Secure pharmaceuticals delivery container and service

A method and system of intelligently deploying a drone above a vehicle in order to signal and alert emergency responders. The vehicle includes a compartment in which the drone is stowed until specific conditions are detected by the vehicle's onboard computing system. When a collision, breakdown, or other emergency event is detected, the onboard computing system causes the drone to be released from the compartment and move into a position above the vehicle. Sensors for the drone collect data that can be used by the onboard computing system to generate instructions for the drone to maintain a generally constant position relative to the vehicle and ensure responders can accurately pinpoint the location of any injured passengers. The drone can include lights and audio that can increase the likelihood of the beacon being noticed.
