BusinessAmazon: Delivering Packages Wherever You Want In Just 30 Minutes Via Drones by Panshow(op): 6:38pm On May 13, 2015
Washington (CNN)Delivering packages wherever you want it, through the air, via drone in just 30 minutes -- that's Amazon's vision and the company just made another step forward.

On the heels of getting FAA permission for experimental test flights in the United States in March, the U.S. Patent and Trademark office has published Amazon's patent application for its drone delivery system.

The patent application reveals new details on just how this delivery by drone would work.

For starters, Amazon is thinking beyond home delivery. They're thinking delivery to wherever you are at the moment.

The patent application describes a customer option called "Bring It To Me." With this option, using GPS data from the consumer's mobile device, the drone locates and delivers the item to that location. Once the customer places the order he or she does not have to remain in one place.

The patent application describes one instance where the user places an order while at home, selects to have the item delivered to their current location (delivery within 30 minutes of the order) and then leaves to go to their friend's house, which is three blocks away from their home.

"As the ordered item is retrieved from inventory, the current location of the user's mobile device may be determined and the delivery location correspondingly updated. As such, the ordered item will be delivered to the user while the user is at their friend's house, or any other location."

But deliveries aren't just restricted to homes. There's even mention of drone deliveries to boats.

Amazon's vision for how it would safely operate is also detailed.

The drone would plot its navigational route based in part on information from other drones in the air, much like how commercial aircraft operate.

Other drones "may provide information regarding weather (e.g., wind, snow, rain), landing conditions, traffic, etc. The UAV(unmanned aerial vehicle or drone) may utilize this information to plan the route from the source location to the delivery location."

If the drone must cross over a busy highway, interstate or roadway, "the navigation of the route may be adjusted to minimize the intersection between the UAV's path and the road."

The drone would also constantly monitor for humans or animals that may be in its path or planned path. The drone would be able to change its path " to avoid those humans or other animals."

"When the UAV reaches the delivery location, it will identify an area at the delivery location where it can safely approach the ground, or another surface, and leave the inventory item, thereby completing the delivery. This may be done through assistance of a remote entity controller taking control of and/or providing control instructions to the UAV to assist the UAV in landing at the delivery location. "

CNN has reached out to Amazon but has not received comment as yet.

The FAA terms of the experimental testing permit it granted to Amazon states the company must abide by specific operation rules: Drones can only be flown at 400 feet or below during the day in clear weather conditions, and must remain in the line-of-sight of their operators, who must hold at least a private pilot's certificate and medical certification.

While testing at designated sites is underway there's still a ways to go before regulators fully open the skies for commercial use.

dachpee:
The Jega connection against GNS in Plateau State.

As of last by 8pm GNS was leading with about 22000, remaining just two local governments, where he is also leading. Jega called the inec commissioner and told him APC must win in Plateau, and when police sent everyone away, they manipulated the figures of Jos North and Wase. Where two polling units recorded about 40,000 votes. instead of the results to be announced on local stations and radio the next day by 9am to our greatest surprise we heard in national news that Lalong of the APC had won the election. Well everything happens for a reason, God knows the best
Tarrrr... Blatant lie made from hell. Be sincere to yourself, there was no way GNS could have won this election even after the massive rigging in Jos South and Barkin Ladi.

joker5180:
who are the contending forces?
Senator GNS Pwajok, (PDP) a stooge of the governor.
Barrister Simon Lalong (APC).
The governor has played a fast one on his candidate because the guy is a serving senator & was deceived by the governor to come & contest the governorship seat so as to pave way for the governor to contest for Senate. A trade by barter kind of game. The governor won the Senate seat though but the sky is not bright for his candidate (Senator GNS Pwajok).
People have realized their wicked plan and have since abandoned the PDP for the APC candidate.

Card readers were apparently failing often at a polling booth. And the guy couldn't understand why...cos the readers were all new. So he approached the INEC woman. Inspected the reader. Only to find the protective film on the lense of the reader had not been removed. After a protracted argument he convinced the woman to remove it. The reader not only read the prior rejected cards, it was reading with even faster response time. Please share. It could help a lot.
