Amazon says it's taking deliveries to the next level -- quite literally -- within a few months by using drones.
Amazon Inc. said it's taking deliveries to the next level -- quite literally -- within a few months by using drones.
According to Amazon, the new drones will be more efficient, stable and safe because they're designed to detect static and moving objects from any direction while in motion. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos first revealed plans for Prime Air in 2013, and the company made its first fully autonomous Prime Air delivery Dec. 7, 2016, in Cambridge, England, where the company has a fulfillment center.
But Amazon isn't the only company expanding drone deliveries. Alphabet, the parent company of Google, also has been working on Wing Aviation, the first drone company to receive an Air Carrier Certificate from the Federal Aviation Administration, in April.
