Last week was a busy one for robotics, with RoboBusiness in the Bay, ROSCon in New Orleans and Amazon’s Delivering the Future event in Seattle. At the event, Amazon announced two news items revolving around the Prime Air service, including the launch of the service in College Station, Texas, and plans to launch in a third U.S. city, as well as yet-to-be-named spots in the U.K. and Germany. The service has had its share of ups and downs, including layoffs in 2020 and company-wide job cuts earlier this year. Amazon is approaching the project with baby steps and has worked with local and national governing bodies to ensure the same day delivery service complies.
