fly_tornado Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 A Queensland farm on the Darling Downs has become the unlikely testing ground of one of the most technologically advanced Google projects that could see autonomous drones deliver anything from chocolate to life-saving medicines. Google X, a division of the US-based technology company dedicated to making major technological advancements, tested Project Wing near Warwick earlier this month, the first time "non-Googlers" had been involved. http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/digital-life/digital-life-news/google-drones-tested-in-queensland-20140829-109jvb.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
