A first look at Amazon’s new delivery drone
Amazon has released their latest iteration of their design for a fully electric delivery drone.
Key findings
"The drone is chock-full of sensors and a suite of compute modules that run a variety of machine learning models to keep the drone safe."
"When you see it fly in airplane mode, it looks a little bit like a TIE fighter, where the core holds all the sensors and navigation technology, as well as the package. The new drone can fly up to 15 miles and carry packages that weigh up to five pounds."
"To see what’s happening around it, the new drone uses a number of sensors and machine learning models — all running independently — that constantly monitor the drone’s flight envelope (which, thanks to its unique shape and controls, is far more flexible than that of a regular drone) and environment. These include regular camera images and infrared cameras to get a view of its surroundings."
