Inspired by lean thinking, the Toyota pallet drone is a vehicle that can be trained to become a digital twin of a real warehouse. This way the pallet drone can learn to recognize people and objects, as well as to make decisions and prioritize certain actions. The pallet drone can work as part of a team thanks to its on-board artificial intelligence and cloud collaboration. This allows for faster deployment of automated solutions at customer sites and flexibility to continually optimise the material flow.
