Object transport is the use of artificial intelligence to autonomously move physical objects from one location to another using robotic systems, drones, or automated machinery. AI-powered transport systems rely on computer vision, path planning, and machine learning to detect, grasp, and navigate environments while optimizing efficiency and safety. These systems are widely used in logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, and warehouse automation, where precision and speed are crucial. By enabling autonomous handling and delivery, AI-driven object transport reduces human labor, minimizes errors, and enhances operational workflows. As AI advances, object transport continues to improve in adaptability, efficiency, and real-world problem-solving.
