Amazon’s latest delivery drone was announced at the re:MARS event in Las Vegas.

After years of promise to make delivery using drones, Amazon has promised activation of this method in few weeks.

 Amazon said that in few weeks, drone built like plane and helicopter will start making delivery but they did not specify places delivery will take place.

The company unveiled its latest Prime Air electric delivery drone on Wednesday, 5th June at its re:Mars artificial intelligence conference in Las Vegas.

The drone has a central compartment for carrying goods and a hexagonal shrouding that acts as its wings, while also protecting (and shielding people from) a series of rotors.

Jeff Wilke, Amazon’s CEO of worldwide consumer, said the drones will be able to deliver packages that weigh less than five pounds over distances of up to 15 miles in less than half an hour. It can move around in 3D space and it’s designed to be quiet so people may not hear it coming.

“We’re not saying all our shipments will be on drones, but the opportunity is tremendous,” Wilke said.
