Amazon Scout
The Automatic Package Delivery Bot is Finally on Streets

Hunter's comment
Don't get too excited though. It's only for a small county called Snohomish in Washington and there is only going to be six Amazon Scout devices. Yesterday Amazon released this very boring video on how this works:
Few More Interesting Things
- The quick delivery features are still only for Amazon Prime members
- The bot is going to be delivering packages only on weekdays and during daylight hours
- The bot will still be accompanied by an Amazon employee in these early days
- It's especially made for travelling on sidewalks and delivering stuff in these kind of neighborhoods
- Luddites are already hating this cure automated creature
It's Better Than Drones
Scout is grounded and can manage to carry a bigger payload and it's less complicated than navigating airways. I honestly prefer this for most cases than something like a drone.
Happy Hunting
