When the homeowner is not at home, the courier is there. Such annoyance puzzles many users who love online shopping. Recently, Amazon announced the launch of an intelligent lock system, allowing couriers to deliver packages to homes when the owners are not at home, and ensuring the safety of users' property.
It is known that the system is called “Amazon Key” and it consists of a smart lock and a camera system. Users can remotely control the courier to deliver the package to their home in advance, or create a one-time password for temporary visiting couriers or friends, allowing them to enter the home.
In the process, the identity of the courier and the express parcel will be strictly censored. Meanwhile, the camera will send live video to the user during the process.
It is reported that the development of this Amazon service has been ongoing for more than a year. Amazon's Vice President of Delivery Technology, Peter · Larsen, said: “For us, this is not a test, but a core part of our future shopping experience.”
According to the introduction, the service will be launched in 37 regions of the United States on November 8th, priced at $249.99 (1657 yuan), and Amazon will also provide on-site installation services.
