This isn’t what I imagined from Amazon’s cloud-based technology.
In recently discovered patent images, Amazon drafted a plan to have an airship 45,000 feet above the Earth, storing a fleet of drones and packages to deliver. Amazon said these unmanned aerial vehicles would take “little to no power” to transport goods to consumers’ doorsteps if they are dropping down and gliding instead of lifting off and taking flight.
