Amazon Plans Army Of Robotic Drones

In what seems to have come straight out of a sci-fi story, Amazon.com's Jeff Bezos said over the weekend that the online retailer is working on an effort to create an army of robotic, airborne drones, to help deliver products from its warehouses to the homes of its customers. Amazon said the service--Amazon Prime Air--is expected to roll out in four or five years. Bezos announced the plan on 60 Minutes on Sunday. Amazon also released a video of how the system might work in real life.
