Drone Delivery 

This drone will be ready to deliver goods to consumers

The plan to present an introductory drone seems to be coming soon. They claim to have the technology to carry out delivery services using drones.Drone Delivery 

However, plans to deliver packages from their warehouses to customers' homes through drones are still hampered by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) permission to refuse to give the green light.

Meanwhile, Amazo's research and development team is working hard to explore various features of the delivery system using this drone. The latest news, their request for patents from this technology has been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark.

The delivery technology via the drone itself is planned to use a commercial truck operated by another company as an introductory interim transport provider. Is it when you return to the warehouse or when you are delivering to the consumer's home.

The idea of ​​drones that "overlapped" on this truck actually violated the terms they made themselves, "delivery by drone." However, this idea was carried out in an effort to save the power of the drone battery itself and also on some routes could cut travel time.

This method can also prevent accidents that can occur in air areas that are crowded with obstacles.

The patent document also explains that Amazon has pocketed an agreement with the trucking company and will place the drone at the top of the vehicle to maintain package security during the trip.Drone Delivery 

A software that tracks the position of a drone will determine which route and truck is the most efficient in each trip. This drone also has the potential to move a ride in a long delivery.

This is not the first time that Amazon is considering non-air facilities to load their drone systems. In 2017, other patent documents show how these drones also use trains and ships as part of this service.

This is done because of anticipating the possibility of demand from consumers who want their goods to be determined when they arrive.

Besides Amazon, Boeing also develops drones that can carry up to 200 kg of goods, see the reviews in this article.

Regarding battery capacity and long distances, Amazon doesn't think about other ways. They are also considering the idea of ​​creating a battery charging station for their drones.

The concept is almost the same as gas stations in general, it's just that Amazon uses public facilities that already existed before. For example, electric poles, traffic light poles, transmission poles and other high-rise buildings.Drone Delivery 

This drone will later charge the battery at the top end of this public facility.
