It took Google two and a half years to successfully launch this custom-built, three-sided crane that can be disassembled and shipped to anywhere in the world. This technology has already been tested in multiple locations across the world and after its launch in Puerto Rico, the Loon is also said to debut in Indonesia later this year.
