Amazon Drones


Drones For Amazon

Amazon is still developing drones for its Amazon Prime program. They have multiple prototypes because there is a lot of different weather in America. For instance, rainy Florida weather to hot, dry Arizona weather, and snowy weather in multiple other states. These drones will also have a "sense-and-avoid" technology which means that the drone can avoid obstacles like trees, power lines, and other houses. The drones will deliver your package, if you are not home, on your lawn/front yard but Amazon hasn't found a way to do this if you live in an apartment.
    
     Another thing is, what if someone try's to stop the drone with the package? Well, Misener (Amazons Vice President) says that he isn't worried about that and hopes that drones carrying packages will be as common as a delivery truck.
