Walmart launches new drone deliveries

Retail giant Walmart is launching drone deliveries in Dallas with its technology partner Wing

The company will start with deliveries from two Walmart Supercenters in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, so residents can order a range of products, including quick meals, groceries, household essentials, and over-the-counter medicines.

Wing’s drones cruise at 65 mph and use a tether to gently deliver even delicate items – like a carton of eggs – to very precise locations outside customer homes in urban and suburban environments.
