rtoz writes: Google's research division Google X is developing a system of drones to deliver goods.
This Drone Delivery System is named as "Project Wing".
Google X has been working on this project for the last two years secretly.
Recently it tested the drone delivery system at Queensland in Australia.
The Drones successfully delivered a first aid kit, candy bars, dog treats, and water to a couple of Australian farmers
The self-flying vehicle itself consists of four electrically-driven propellers with a wingspan of about five feet; it weighs just under 19 pounds and can take off and land without a runway.
Long-term goal of the Google is to develop drones that could be used for disaster relief by delivering aid to isolated areas.
