Amazon has unveiled a prototype of artificial intelligence-powered smart glasses designed to be used by its delivery drivers.
The "Amelia" glasses include a camera and built-in display, and pairs with a waistcoat with a button drivers can press to take photos of deliveries.
"We're testing it at a number of locations with over a dozen delivery service partners and hundreds of drivers across the country," said Beryl Tomay, Amazon's vice president of Transportation, at a launch event in Silicon Valley.
Amazon is the latest US tech giant to enter an increasingly crowded field of firms experimenting with wearables, but for now it is a product meant for drivers, not customers.
Although Amazon is still experimenting with the product, it plans to eventually make the smart glasses available to drivers first in North America, then globally.
