Abstract: [046] The present invention relates to a system for autonomous drone delivery with adaptive route optimisation. The system comprises at least one autonomous drone having a propulsion assembly, navigation unit, payload compartment, battery pack, sensors, onboard route adjustment controller, and communication module. A route optimisation controller generates a delivery route based on destination coordinates, airspace restrictions, obstacle data, payload weight, battery condition, weather data, communication reliability, and emergency landing availability. The onboard route adjustment controller modifies the route during flight using live sensor feedback. A payload monitoring unit verifies parcel condition, a battery estimation unit evaluates available energy and reserve energy requirements, and a landing-zone verification unit confirms destination safety before descent. A fleet coordination module allocates deliveries among multiple drones while preventing route conflict. The system improves delivery reliability, energy utilisation, landing safety, and autonomous operation in urban, semi-urban, and remote delivery environments. Accompanied Drawing [FIGS. 1-2]
