		</div><p>Google and its parent company Alphabet is teaming up with US food chain Chipotle to test a new scheme that will see drones from the firm’s Project Wing programme delivering burritos to students at Virginia Tech, reports claim.</p>
<p>According to Bloomberg, the pilot scheme has been approved by the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) and will be coordinated from the university campus by a Chipotle food truck.</p>
<p>So far, most of Project Wing’s testing has taken place in Australia, while Amazon has recently launched a test programme for its Prime Air drone delivery system in the UK.</p>
<p>Now Google wants to get more involved in the rise of the drone industry, and according to reports saw the “unique challenges” of delivering burritos as a good place to start – among them, how to keep food hot during transit using special packaging.</p>
<p>Timothy Sands, president of Virginia Tech said: “It sounds simple, but it’s not. There are a lot of things to work out from a safety point of view and a policy point of view.”</p>
<p>Staff at the university will also be able to take advantage of the scheme – but demand will surely be higher among students suddenly given the chance to have food delivered to their rooms by a flying robot.</p>
