About
Amazon Prime Air is a next-generation product delivery service proposed by the online retailer company Amazon that would use unmanned aerial vehicles to deliver small packages within 30 minutes from its warehouse to the address location. After the service was announced in November 2013, it quickly became a target of parodies and science-fiction infused jokes on Twitter and elsewhere online.Origin
On December 1st, 2013, the Amazon Prime Air drone-based delivery system was announced by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos on the American television news program 60 Minutes as a service in development which can ship any product weighing five pounds or less to a customer within a 10 mile radius in less than 30 minutes. The same day, the online retailer released a promotional video featuring a drone test flight on YouTube (shown below). In the first 72 hours, the video gained over 7.9 million views and 6,800 comments.

Dood. These are winners. Can you imagine if a drone could bring us tacos? It would mean that I had a kid for nothing. He can't even drive well enough to get through the drive through.
ReplyDeleteI like the one about the usps making the catapult. That would work well for softer items.
ReplyDeleteeven if usps shipped via catapult, your package would still take less damage than shipping it ups.
