Amazon tests AI smart glasses for delivery drivers with HUD guidance and package checks Amazon is piloting AI-powered smart glasses to support last‑mile delivery. The wearable uses computer vision and on-device intelligence to recognize packages and guide drivers via a heads-up display (HUD) embedded in the lens.
