Amazon says drone deliveries coming ‘within months’

Amazon said on June 5 it expects to begin large-scale deliveries by drone in the coming months as it unveiled its newest design for its "Prime Air" fleet. 

Jeff Wilke, head of Amazon's consumer operations, told the company's Machine Learning, Automation, Robotics and Space conference in Las Vegas that drones would play a role in ramping up efforts to shorten delivery times for many items to just one day for Amazon Prime members.
