AMRs
An Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) is an intelligent, self-navigating machine that uses sensors, AI, and cameras to move goods, materials, or products through environments like factories or warehouses without needing human guidance or fixed paths. AMRs, often called intelligent robots or autonomous transport vehicles, differ from AGVs because they can dynamically avoid obstacles and compute new routes in real time.
