[Online retailer Amazon hopes to
have mini drones delivering packages
to customers in just 30 minutes,
its chief executive has claimed.
During a TV appearance in the
United States, Jeff Bezos played
a video showing the tiny robotic
devices, known as octocopters,
which pick up items in small
yellow buckets and whiz
them through the air.
I know this looks like science fiction.
It's not," Mr Bezos told CBS
television's 60 Minutes show.]

Believe it when I see it


But they are now testing them


Change is on its way.





Feel The Force

[Saph]

omg :laugh:

[arista]

Yes Utter Bliss
you go outside it arrives and lands
all faster

Amazon is the Best

[Saph]

what do you do with it though? Does it just drop the parcel on your doorstep and fly off?

[King Gizzard]

so many things that could go wrong/will go wrong, I don't think it's worth it

[arista]

what do you do with it though? Does it just drop the parcel on your doorstep and fly off?


No you get a phone call it
lands on the ground
leaves your package.

It has multi cameras and a speaker
so they see you get it safe.

[Shaun]

Aside from the fact that the novelty will wear off after the first time, there're so many problems with this:

- logistical problems (surely going to take years even after these 5 to iron out delivery problems)
- vandalism (what if some wise-ass tries shooting them out of the sky?)
- replacing human delivery = inevitable loss of jobs
- the cost of it will probably be an increase on current delivery charges
- being filmed and recorded by them to "make sure it's delivered" = unnecessary intrusion

i just don't...why...why is this necessary

[arista]

so many things that could go wrong/will go wrong, I don't think it's worth it


but thats why they Test it for a long time first


If something goes wrong
they know about it as it has multi cameras
back at base a human controls it
if it has a problem


Do not be so Negative

[Shaun]

this made me laugh though

How would it deliver to flats

Just as planes are not meant to crash, but some do. Things go wrong, nothing is flawless.

Just seems like a pointless development. There's no need for them.

This is cool, but even when/if it happens, doubt i'll use it.
Argos have a similar service where they ship an item to you from store asap and it can cost up to £50 on some items.
This will be as, if not more expensive. Nice option, but will be too expensive.

[Marsh.]

And what exactly do you do with the plastic box? Is it recyclable, returnable?

What happens if it's left in the garden and stolen?

Oh... that´s good to know. Whew.

But then again... what if some terrorist agents sneak to the Amazon HQ at night, steal the blueprints and manuals, sneak out and take them to their superiors, who give them to the engineers, who build a prototype and send it to a factory, which builds them in great numbers (mass produce) and who then ships them to terrorist groups and their fighters, who then use them to deliver bombs and chemical weapons to their enemies (USA) to blow up and/or compromise their strategic targets.

Frightening... :shocked:

[Kizzy]

If you were that determined you could just buy a drone and a 3D printer deconstruct it and replicate it as many times as you wanted.
