It is known that Amazon is actively exploring opportunities that will help the company to deliver packages using drones. But the delivery drones are not limited, you also need to figure out where to store, charge and repair. Of all the currently offered options one of the most successful seems to be the tower. The concept of such structures was developed in the Amazon, and after that patented.
A multilevel center for unmanned aerial vehicles — the so-called patented tower will allow you to save some space in cities with dense building and can accommodate a lot of drones. In addition, as illustrated, the tower will have entrances for trucks, through which will be uploaded packages. For men there are separate entrances, so the tower will not be completely automated — manual labor, apparently, Amazon will be in demand in the future.
First delivery drone from Amazon was delivered at the end of last year — while a UK resident living near the company’s warehouses, got my order in just 13 minutes after placing the order.
