<v Speaker 1>be super exact. But right now it's time for this.

7
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:23.920
<v Speaker 2>And now it's time for Basis week Day Up Day,

8
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:29.160
<v Speaker 2>featuring veteran news anchor kt Fontweets. Here are the important

9
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:32.039
<v Speaker 2>stories he's currently tracking from around the world.

10
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:34.640
<v Speaker 3>All right, the story involves the city of Mesquite and

11
00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:37.880
<v Speaker 3>surrounding areas. Here in DFW, let's go to Fox four

12
00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:39.840
<v Speaker 3>Steve Eager and Heather Hayes.

13
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:43.119
<v Speaker 4>My crew you a new company that will soon be

14
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:45.600
<v Speaker 4>able to deliver up to eight pounds of groceries is

15
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:47.039
<v Speaker 4>now over Mesquite.

16
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:48.479
<v Speaker 1>Fox for Lori Brown has.

17
00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:51.119
<v Speaker 5>The story Autonomous drones are providing a new way to

18
00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:52.960
<v Speaker 5>get instant deliveries and Mesquite.

19
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:56.079
<v Speaker 6>Because there's nobody flying the aircraft yet, the system does itself.

20
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:59.159
<v Speaker 5>Instead of lowering the drone and dangling a box, zip

21
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:02.520
<v Speaker 5>Line has engineered a secondary device, a high tech cooler

22
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:04.040
<v Speaker 5>equipped with a propeller.

23
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:06.879
<v Speaker 6>An air comes very gently down to your backyard and

24
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.000
<v Speaker 6>it releases the package and it's back up before you

25
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:09.519
<v Speaker 6>even know it.

26
00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:12.159
<v Speaker 5>The zipline drones remain at around three hundred feet at

27
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.519
<v Speaker 5>all times during the delivery, high enough that it can

28
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:16.400
<v Speaker 5>barely be heard when it is above your home.

29
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:17.640
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I get a little more of I want to

30
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:20.280
<v Speaker 3>stop it right there. So it's a drone, it's got

31
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:22.879
<v Speaker 3>cooler in it. And then when it knows that it's

32
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 3>above your house, it's three hundred feet up, so a

33
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:30.640
<v Speaker 3>football field, right then a zipline lowers the package down

34
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:33.359
<v Speaker 3>onto your front or.

35
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 1>What is this? Okay? So when I think of a zipline,

36
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I think of something that's connected to two points. This

37
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:39.400
<v Speaker 1>is just a drop rope.

38
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.519
<v Speaker 3>It's a rope that's strong enough to hold the up

39
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:43.760
<v Speaker 3>to eight pound package.

40
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:45.760
<v Speaker 1>It's like Navy seals drop it out of a helicopter.

41
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:47.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah okay, yeah.

42
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:50.239
<v Speaker 3>And it looks cool, but there's not a chance in

43
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:52.920
<v Speaker 3>hell that this is going to be flawless bright.

44
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:56.400
<v Speaker 7>No, no way. Just crowding the airspace alone is complicated.

45
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.439
<v Speaker 7>Where it lands, is it easy for someone to steal it?

46
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:02.400
<v Speaker 7>At the end of March, I saw they were testing

47
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:06.159
<v Speaker 7>a drone that was delivering a car battery, and they

48
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:09.400
<v Speaker 7>dropped it and it fell through a windshield after a

49
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:11.879
<v Speaker 7>lady had just put her toddler in the back seat.

50
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:13.639
<v Speaker 1>They crushed the windshield.

51
00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:16.159
<v Speaker 7>Luckily everybody was okay, But I'm like, this is by

52
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:20.400
<v Speaker 7>no means a figured out situation. I would also say

53
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:25.080
<v Speaker 7>that this is not a practical situation. What is eight

54
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:26.719
<v Speaker 7>pounds of groceries get you?

55
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.639
<v Speaker 1>Like that is gonna be someone that's just kind of

56
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:32.520
<v Speaker 1>ordering something daily. I'm glad you.

57
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 3>Said that this actually ends up making a little bit

58
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:37.400
<v Speaker 3>of sense to me. Okay, and again keep in mind

59
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:39.919
<v Speaker 3>though the three hundred feet thing, yeah, football, like, how

60
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:41.719
<v Speaker 3>high are we have now? We're three floors.

61
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Up, so it's about ten feet of about thirty thirty.

62
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:48.479
<v Speaker 3>Feet, so yeah, and that means it doesn't make noise,

63
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:50.639
<v Speaker 3>so you won't even hear it. So you're gonna hear

64
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:52.960
<v Speaker 3>a lady in a second come in talking about how

65
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:53.879
<v Speaker 3>she has used this.

66
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:56.280
<v Speaker 6>Your app would have told you that if you're inside

67
00:02:56.319 --> 00:02:58.360
<v Speaker 6>cooking right now, that your package is on your back

68
00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:00.879
<v Speaker 6>door and the Zipple depart you for you have even

69
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:01.400
<v Speaker 6>realized it.

70
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:04.639
<v Speaker 5>The deliveries for missing ingredients or last minute birthday party

71
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:07.120
<v Speaker 5>gifts can arrive in minutes, and the zip can still

72
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 5>deliver during rain and certain levels of wind.

73
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:12.919
<v Speaker 8>I've done several orders. I was cooking breakfast the other

74
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.240
<v Speaker 8>day and I needed bacon. I had ran out and

75
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:17.719
<v Speaker 8>some biscuits I can order. I can just go online,

76
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:19.759
<v Speaker 8>and I did it within twenty minutes. I had my bacon,

77
00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:24.599
<v Speaker 8>my biscuits and finish my breakfast. It was It was wonderful.

78
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:27.039
<v Speaker 3>Right now, if you live with it, Okay, Now, here's

79
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:30.199
<v Speaker 3>what I do when I need something. I drive my

80
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:31.120
<v Speaker 3>ass to the store.

81
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:32.919
<v Speaker 9>See, yeah, I know that's what I thought. It was, like,

82
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:34.159
<v Speaker 9>how long does it take for her to go to

83
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:36.280
<v Speaker 9>the store pick it up? But this is just like

84
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.280
<v Speaker 9>us uber eating when we could go out and get

85
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:38.800
<v Speaker 9>it ourself.

86
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>But this is also this is a test market, like

87
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 1>they're prepared for her to order this in the middle

88
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:47.280
<v Speaker 1>of her breakfast. You're mean to tell me that if

89
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>every one of the Metroplex suburb skits that Walmart, whoever's

90
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:51.919
<v Speaker 1>right on the case, they're gonna have to have a

91
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:53.439
<v Speaker 1>lot of drones. They have to have a lot of

92
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:56.400
<v Speaker 1>drones and a lot of people. They're loading up the drones.

93
00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:01.599
<v Speaker 1>I understand what they're promoting. I don't, no, man, I

94
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:02.479
<v Speaker 1>don't think so.

95
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.159
<v Speaker 3>So here is what Walmart is doing right now. This

96
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:07.759
<v Speaker 3>is in Mesquite. Now this is going to be a

97
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:09.759
<v Speaker 3>moving to other stores. But hear this part.

98
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:11.919
<v Speaker 4>Hey, Now, if you live within it two miles in

99
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:14.919
<v Speaker 4>the Mesquite Walmart and you order through the zipline app,

100
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:18.160
<v Speaker 4>the delivery service is free. And soon it's going to

101
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:20.879
<v Speaker 4>be expanded to within ten miles of not only the

102
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.720
<v Speaker 4>Mesquite Walmart, but several other North Texas Walmart locations, but

103
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.199
<v Speaker 4>Walmart has not yet said just how long the service

104
00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:32.519
<v Speaker 4>will remain free. In Sunny Bill Lori Brown, Foxpoorn News.

105
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Charge your ass.

106
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 3>Well, there's about five dollars delivery fee on that if

107
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:38.319
<v Speaker 3>you want your bacon and biscuits.

108
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:40.680
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, but if you're already cooking and you need immediate

109
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:42.600
<v Speaker 7>emergency bacon and biscuits, I could do it.

110
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:43.639
<v Speaker 1>I could see myself doing it.

111
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:46.639
<v Speaker 9>I just said two miles within the Walmart. Though you

112
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:48.879
<v Speaker 9>live two miles from the Walmart and you can't just drive.

113
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:52.720
<v Speaker 7>You've got other things cooking, or you can't leave. What

114
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.199
<v Speaker 7>if you've got like a toddler or something, it's just

115
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:55.879
<v Speaker 7>taking a nap.

116
00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I want to know more about an emergency biscuit situation. Dude,

117
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes you gotta get them, you gotta get them immediately. Yeah,

118
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:06.639
<v Speaker 1>you guys. Oh my god, best guts. Sorry, where's the

119
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:09.160
<v Speaker 1>best guts we've ever planned?

120
00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:10.360
<v Speaker 9>Damn it.

121
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:12.759
<v Speaker 3>I'll say this happens every once in a while when

122
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:16.000
<v Speaker 3>there's some homemade guacam all we made or something, Oh,

123
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.160
<v Speaker 3>we don't need chips, and then I get in the

124
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:19.560
<v Speaker 3>car and I go to the store and I'm back

125
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:22.319
<v Speaker 3>in five minutes with the chips. Yeah.

126
00:05:22.399 --> 00:05:24.439
<v Speaker 1>I kind of like it. I like the idea of

127
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:28.879
<v Speaker 1>KT racing the drones. You know what I'm saying. We

128
00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:30.279
<v Speaker 1>can really check for efficiency.

129
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:35.560
<v Speaker 7>All right, Uh, good stuff there, Yes, thanks everyone, All

130
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 7>right now, you're doing a wonderful job.

131
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:37.639
<v Speaker 1>KT.
