NEW INVENTION-DELIVERY DRONES


IT    IS   NOT   A  SCIENCE  FICTION .But  soon  it  is   going  to  be  a  reality .In    future   goods  would   be  delivered   by  air  flying  drones.These   would  be  much  faster  and easy  to  travel,  with  no  traffic   jams   to  delay   the delivery
Yes    ,Amazon   ,the  biggest    online    store   in  the  world  ,would  have    drones   for  delivery  of  its on  line  shopping  orders .Named  as  octocopters  and  the  service   as ' prim  air'  could   fill  the  skies    by   2015. A   remote  control  helicopter,would  picks  up  the  goods and   flies off  to  its  final  destination
Amazon  hopes ,through    use   of   drones   packages   weighing  up  to  2.3    kg  will  be   in  hands  of   the    customers  within  30  minutes   of  them  placing  an   order.
The   Federal     Aviation   Administration(FAA)  is  actively  working    on  rules  for  unmanned  aerial  vechiles. In  the   US,  the  FAA  has  approved   the  use  of  drones  by  police  and  govenrment 
 agencies  .and has issued  permits.
Now  , by  2015  US  air  space  is  expected  to  be  opened   up   to  all   kinds  of  commercial drones,    with  Europe   quickly    following  suit  in 2016,  when  everything from  books  to  pizza  could  be  delivered  by  aerial  robots or  drones.
The    prototype   has  already   be   made.The     body   of  the  device is  about  the  size   of  a flat screen   monitor ,  and  it  is  attached to   eight    small   helicopter   rotors     and  sits  on  four  tall  legs.
The  claws  under  the  belly  of  the  'octocopt'er'  then  latch  onto  a   standard  sized  plastic  bucket that  rolls  down   a  conveyor  belt     at   aAmazon's   distribution   cent re.Inside   the  bucket    is  the  order.
The   drone  lifts  off  and  whizzes   into  the  air like  a giant  mechanical  insect to  deliver  the package  just   30  minutes  after  clicking  the  "pay"  button  on  the  Amazon.com.Then  it  buzzes  back  into  the  air  and  returns to  base.
The  mini    drone  are  powered  by  environmentally  friendly   motors and can  cover  area  within  a   10   mile(16- kilometer)  radius   of  fulfillment  cent res, thus  covering  a  significant
portion  of  population  in  many urban  areas.
The  drone  operates  autonomously  and  also  follow  the  GPS  coordinates  that  they  receive  to  drop  the  items  off  at     target  locations
According  to   Amazon  CEO Jeff  Bezos,    these  drones  are  safe,  the  prototype  has  redundant  motors   that  will  keep  it    in  the  air    and  prevent  it   from  crashing.'They   are  also   very   green,  it   is  better    than  driving    trucks  around' said  Bezos.
