Engineers from Amazon's drone delivery team, Prime Air, have developed face shields that the company will soon sell on its web site.The face shields will initially be sold to frontline workers, but Amazon intends to open sales up to the public in the future.Amazon's drone delivery unit is developing face shields that will soon be for sale on Amazon.com after a successful trial run with medical professionals, the company announced Thursday.
"Because of the design innovations and capabilities of our supply chain, we are confident we will be able to list them at a significantly lower price than all other reusable face shields currently available to frontline workers," Porter said. The Amazon team adapted the shields from an earlier model created by a group of 3D printing enthusiasts in Washington State. Together, Prime Air engineers and the 3D printing group upgraded the face shields to suit the needs of healthcare workers by making them reusable and more comfortable. The National Institute of Health, an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, has approved the designs.
