The glasses, known as Amelia, assist drivers with navigation and package scanning, potentially replacing handheld GPS devices. Amazon's Vice President of Transportation, Beryl Tomay, noted that drivers have saved up to 30 minutes per shift using the glasses. Additionally, a new robotic arm, Blue Jay, aims to improve warehouse operations. This innovation aligns with Amazon's goal to optimize the last 100 yards of delivery, a costly segment of the logistics process. **Amazon has recently demonstrated its commitment to continually working to accelerate the delivery of everyday items to its clients. This was after the tech giant shifted the standard from two-day to same-day and even one-hour delivery.** Currently, Amazon aims to save precious seconds on each delivery with robots, AI, and new eyewear assistance. ### Amazon’s commitment to accelerating the delivery process with its advanced glasses After reports leaked that Amazon was developing advanced glasses last year, the tech company showcased the glasses for delivery workers for the first time this week. Internally known as Amelia, these glasses feature a small screen that provides turn-by-turn directions, scans package codes, and takes photos to confirm deliveries. Considering the unique features, analysts mentioned that the tech giant’s glasses might replace the big handheld GPS devices that drivers currently use. Additionally, they noted that these glasses can provide individuals with useful navigation advice, such as suggesting which way to turn when exiting an apartment elevator or even ways to avoid an aggressive dog at a client’s house. To work effectively, sources familiar with the situation pointed out that Amazon’s advanced glasses connect to a controller attached to a driver’s vest. Meanwhile, the tech company revealed its designed swappable battery packs to solve battery life challenges. This announcement was made at Amazon’s yearly “Delivering the Future” logistics event. Notably, this event aimed to enhance the “last 100 yards” of delivery, which the company highlighted as typically the most expensive part of getting packages to customers. To illustrate its dedication to accelerating the delivery process, reports from reliable sources indicate that Amazon launched a delivery van scanner last year, which made work easier for drivers. According to these reports, the van scanner enabled drivers to identify packages at each stop by shining a green light on them, thereby saving the time that drivers would otherwise waste reading labels. Apart from this innovation, the sources also noted that the tech giant presented new digital maps to reporters in June of this year. These digital maps provide more detailed information about neighborhoods, building shapes, and obstacles compared to Google Maps. ### Beryl Tomay acknowledges the effectiveness of Amazon’s advanced glasses Beryl Tomay, Amazon’s Vice President of Transportation, mentioned that several drivers had already tested the advanced glasses on their routes. Following their feedback on Amazon’s advanced glasses, Tomay stated that the eyeglasses reduce the need to simultaneously handle both a phone and a package. She explained that they keep the driver focused, hence improving their safety. Hence, according to her, some drivers have saved up to 30 minutes in their shifts since news of the maneuver has spread. Tomay also noted that drivers and their contracted firms will not be forced to use smart glasses. Additionally, she mentioned that the company plans to give out the smart glasses for free to those who opt to use them. However, Tomay cautioned that the glasses remain experimental and Amazon’s plans for them have not yet been finalized. To make work easier, the online store recently announced the launch of a robotic arm that it said would help warehouse workers pick items from shelves and organize them, thereby speeding up and improving the accuracy of order delivery. Amazon said the Blue Jay robot can reduce injury rates and operate in a more compact space than older robots, which typically require three separate stations. In related events, Amazon’s glasses launch coincides with Samsung’s unveiling of the Galaxy XR. The South Korean multinational manufacturing conglomerate is the latest to take on the category with the Galaxy XR. Samsung began selling it on Tuesday night for $1,800, about half the price of Apple’s Vision Pro. Those who buy the new gadget early will also receive a suite of digital freebies, including free access to the paid version of Google’s Gemini AI assistant and YouTube Premium for a year. The headset was made in collaboration with Google for the software and Qualcomm, which makes the chip powering the Galaxy XR. ### Related Stocks - [AMZN.US - Amazon](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZN.US.md) - [AMZU.US - Direxion Daily AMZN Bull 2X Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZU.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | OpenAI 新一輪融資或突破千億美元 據報亞馬遜、軟銀、英偉達及微軟參與投資 | OpenAI 即將完成新一輪融資，預計籌集超過 1000 億美元，估值可能超過 8500 億美元。主要投資者包括亞馬遜、軟銀、英偉達和微軟。融資將分階段進行，預計在本年度內完成。亞馬遜可能投資高達 500 億美元，軟銀 300 億美元，英偉 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276297991.md) | | 股神巴菲特再現「神準」操作 亞馬遜急跌前大減倉 再沽蘋果美銀 買入一隻媒體股 | 股神巴菲特在卸任巴郡 CEO 後，繼續調整投資組合。根據 SEC 13F 文件，巴郡大幅減持亞馬遜 770 萬股，持倉減少 77%；同時出售約 5,080 萬股美國銀行和 1,030 萬股蘋果，連續第三季減持蘋果。巴郡首次增持傳統媒體股，購 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276191227.md) | | 宇樹人形機器人搭載禾賽激光雷達 春晚效應推升股價 | 宇樹科技的兩款人形機器人在央視春晚表演中搭載禾賽 JT128 雷射雷達，展現出高水平的協同動作。受此影響，禾賽（HSAI）股價在美股市場上漲，週二最高達到 28.21 美元，收盤時為 26.77 美元，漲幅近 4%。禾賽 JT 系列雷射雷達 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276198028.md) | | 美股七雄變「雙熊」Meta 危危乎 亞馬遜創 20 年最長跌浪 關注股神會否再沽蘋果 | 美股七雄近期表現疲弱，部分已陷入熊市，亞馬遜創下 20 年來最長跌浪。市場對大型科技公司的資本開支及盈利能力產生質疑，尤其是亞馬遜的高額投資可能導致負自由現金流。分析指出，亞馬遜需展現投資回報以消除投資者憂慮。微軟雲業務預計在三年內超過 A | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276001219.md) | | 傳 OpenAI 最新融資有望突破 7800 億，亞馬遜、英偉達等參與投資 | OpenAI 即將完成新一輪融資的第一階段，預計融資額將超過 1,000 億美元，創下紀錄。首輪融資主要來自亞馬遜、軟銀、英偉達和微軟等戰略投資者，預計在本月底前確定投資方案。隨著 OpenAI 計劃進行基礎設施投資，公司整體估值可能超過 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276419176.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
