Amazon Prime Air drones revealed on 60 Minutes, aim to deliver in half an hour
03 Dec 2013 • engadget.comAmazon CEO Jeff Bezos took to 60 Minutes to reveal the company's latest delivery method: drones. In what is likely a cunning reminder of the e-tailer's upcoming Cyber Monday sales, these bots will apparently be capable of delivering packages up to five pounds (86 percent of orders are apparently less than that), with the aim of getting them to your house in under half an hour. The system is called Prime Air and the octo-copter drones, which wait, ready to deliver, at the end of conveyor belts, have a range of 10 miles.
Ok, I should buy some Amazon stock. If this could drop packages off on my balcony that would be ever better. :)
