How Amazon Drone Delivery Will Work

  • It’s well over a decade since Amazon launched its Prime delivery service; in fact it was 2007 when the company first introduced us to unlimited next-day shipping on what was at the time almost a million products. But in 13 years, we have seen little change. That is, until recently.
    Many areas now offer same-day delivery, but behind closed doors Amazon had been working on an ambitious plan to realise almost instant delivery. The goal? Just 30 minutes, from the click of the ‘order now’ button to the tangible products, in our hands.
    Every delivery company can agree that the final mile or so of a product’s journey is the most expensive. As it leaves a shipping container, and steps away from the lorry’s vessel, it enters the smallest vehicle yet - vans, and sometimes cars. Rather than carrying millions of products, a driver can now only carry a few dozen. Employing thousands of drivers comes at incredible cost to shipping companies.

      4. Too many flying and will run into each other (FAA)
      5. TOo expensive and not worth it.

      1- No, you can't. Not allowed
      2- It will kill the traffic jams first before killing the kids.
      3- Restrict flights when there is too much wind like today's aircraft and design a waterproof model.
      4- Thermal and optical cross detection with local emission/reception of electromagnetic fields between UAVs
      5- Low energy consumption thanks to the optimisation of delivery & electricity routes to compensate for the high initial investment (paid by the transport companies)
      6- UberEats pays people to ride bicycles to deliver the food you have ordered to your home (both expensive and socially unfair).
      7- Most parcels delivered weigh less than 2 kg, why should this be a limitation since large parcels can still be delivered by ground transport?
      I will add that 9 million people die due to air pollution and 1.3 million people die on roads every year, which is accelerated by the increasing pressure on road networks. UAVs make noise, but can you bear cars' traffic noise?

      @@aeromodelist basically you are making it out that these things CANT PHYSICALLY happen which is WRONG. I CAN shot one down, but it is illegal. That's doesn't fix the problem that it CAN happen. And saying it will land in traffic before it kills someone DOESNT MEAN IT WONT HAPPEN. I don't care if it hits 9 cars before it kills a kid. The point is it can and will happen. Low energy consumption doesn't fix noise pollution never mind bird crashes. ANd car traffic noise is ESSENTIAL becuase we HAVE to transport humans. It will happen just not in our lifetime. Not on a large scale. Would have already happened by now. Automated cars arnt taking off in this lifetime and wont until waaaays from now.

    I work at a college mail room and I'm dismayed at the condition that a good portion Amazon's packages come in. (90% of the packages coming in are from Amazon):
    - Empty bubble wrap envelopes - maybe the plastic envelope sealer machine wasn't working well that day - or maybe a carrier pulled the 5-finger discount move.
    - Piss poor tape up jobs of boxes - where the box seams are falling apart (where some of the contents probably fell out along the way). The nylon web reinforced paper tape they use looks like it wasn't moistened all along its full length before applying it - (only in a few spots) so the package is barely holding itself together.
    - Using massive sized envelopes (or boxes) for tiny items - that are bouncing around inside. - which would throw the boxes off-balance as they move and possibly have them fall off of conveyor-belts they're moving along.
    I don't know if it's system-wide or from one or two plants of theirs but it just gives off this vibe like "f@ck it we don't care. We're too big too fail" or "we're under so much pressure push stuff out, we don't have time to care"
    That's from - hand delivery - will that continue through drone delivery?

    This impacts everyone, not only the customer that placed an order. This means big, loud, camera equipped drones constantly flying over neighborhoods. Maybe makes sense in remote areas where it actually solves a customer problem, but I can’t imagine customers are banging down the door for this in any city where they already have options to get things as quickly as same-day. I hope I never see this launch in my city. I do not want drones flying anywhere near my home and I never want my packages delivered by drone.

    Have Amazon taken into consideration the fact that there are often such things as telephone wires and poles, washing lines, perhaps recently installed TV aerials, sheds, greenhouses etc? How might any unintentional damage caused during a drone delivery be resolved? How will Amazon deliver to someone who lives on the tenth floor of an apartment block, with no outside space to land on? How will incorrect or missing deliveries be resolved? Given the relatively limited range of a typical drone - lets just say 50 miles at the extreme, for the sake of making a point - won't this mean Amazon will need to establish hundreds more local delivery depots, with associated increases in costs? Will that additional cost be passed on to the customer. ( I think I already know the answer to that).

    So.. the idea of dropping off packages in public spaces and rooftop areas in cities (that have millions of people) with currently 0 way to secure any of it.
    Most of those packages would just be stolen. Thieves are just gonna spawn camp at these places. It's easier for them! They don't have to go down streets and looking for packages.
    It's worse than it being snatched from your doorstep if you have to go out of your way to one of these pick-up points just to be robbed at a different location.
    Seems like they have a lot more issues to work out before this could actually be useful for a large percentage of the population."

Then the culprit of this damage is seen (a white Phantom type drone) to bounces away from the car. However, if the frame is frozen at 3.40 the culprit is NOT a drone but what appears to be a car or van battery dropped onto the vehicle. Can you explain this?

    Amazon's Prime delivery service has seen little change since its launch over a decade ago, until recently. Amazon has been working on an ambitious plan to reduce the delivery time from next-day to just 30 minutes. This would involve the use of the smallest vehicles possible, such as vans and cars, to deliver only a few dozen products at a time. This is a much more expensive process than shipping containers, as it requires employing a large number of drivers. However, Amazon believes that this is the only way to achieve their goal of near-instant delivery.

      Not to mention the difference in qualifications required. Drivers are low skill low income work, anyone with a driver's license can find work as a driver to hold off between jobs. Those same low qualification workers cannot simply put on a new hat and start doing electronic hardware repair or fixing software glitches on drones. It requires training and anything software related (which as development continues will reduce the demand for hardware repairs) requires schooling.
      It comes with complications. Now one could say sure, let low skill workers die out and starve to death. It would be natural selection. However, our government won't let that happen. Instead those people will be living off welfare. Which doesn't come from nowhere, so it comes from the taxes paid by middle and upper class. Then those people living off welfare grow, and vote, and have more kids who also won't have work. Now its turning from complications to a mess.

      @@anticom6099 right but I don't think you're understanding the fact that those jobs are not replacing work at a 1:1 ratio. The needs of the individual lacking a job does not make a new job appear. If 100 drivers are replaced by drones, and not every drone needs 1 repairman working full time for them, then there will not be 100 open positions for full time repairmen. Does it make more sense worded that way? In other words, let's say 1 full time repairman can do routine inspections, maintenance and repairs on 10 drones in an 8 hour day (low balling it hard rn), that means there's 10 new job openings for repairmen taking the place of 100 drivers. The other 90 drivers are out of a job.
      As far as other automation programming and maintenance related work, the same effect still applies. The reason companies switch to automation is because it is cheaper. It's cheaper because you don't have to pay as many employees. You kinda see where this is going? They aren't buying the drones and then also hiring an equal amount of higher skill employees. It takes 1 IT guy to fix software issues for a fleet of drones.
