   Thought this bit was interesting as well:

   *When the van arrives at a delivery location, the system projects a green “O” on the packages designated for that stop, while marking all other packages with a red “X.” Drivers are alerted via visual and audio cues, so they can quickly and easily retrieve the right packages without sifting through totes or manually reading labels.*

   Amazon is going to go the route of autonomous vehicles with pods holding individual packages where you enter an OTP from your phone to unlock the package.

   Vision assisted package retrieval? So the van steals your package after the driver delivers it?
