Amazon has unveiled new smart glasses designed to assist drivers in navigating their routes and completing deliveries. 

The AI-powered technology provides hands-free navigation, package scanning, and hazard detection directly in drivers’ field of view, eliminating the need to look down at their smartphones while making deliveries. 

The glasses feature computer vision technology that guides drivers from their vehicles to customers’ doorsteps with turn-by-turn walking navigation. 

“I felt safer the whole time because the glasses have the info right in my field of view,” said Kaleb M., who works for Maddox Logistics Corporation in Omaha, Nebraska, and tested the technology.
