Specs were estimated from looking at the Amazon Prime Air video since no real dimensions could be found, currently.[1]

Tote has barcode located in bottom right corner of the tote on both the front and back face, simplifies orientation problem.


Assumptions

The Scenario

Gas Stations in the USA, Supermarkets in the Netherlands. Allows for a general place to drop packages. Access for both the mailman and drone.

Picture of Eindhoven & its grocery store locations Explanation of who can be reached and why this is effective


The System

Mini explanation of how it works as a whole.

Explanation of how it is modular and can be expanded and collapsed in size.

Explanation on how each station is identified and how the drone communicates.
