Amazon proposes a slice of the sky for commercial drones
Amazon on Tuesday laid out a proposal for how to regulate commercial drones in the US, suggesting that the government set aside a 200-foot-high stretch of the sky for the devices. The concept, presented at a NASA-hosted conference in the San Francisco Bay Area on unmanned aircraft systems, would designate the airspace at an altitude of between 200 feet and 400 feet as a high-speed transit area for commercial drones -- such as the delivery drones Amazon is developing -- with a no-fly buffer… (www.cnet.com) Mais...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]

Who is going to develop the security protocols to ensure they are not hacked or spoofed.
Unless someone develops an inexpensive mm wave transceiver in the very near future this is never going to fly. Pun intended.
