Smart Autonomous Moving Platforms

In recent years, several advances in artificial intelligence such as deep learning, computer vision, automatic driving, cognitive computing, and robotics, have laid the technological foundation for the large-scale application of Smart-AMPs in complex environments. Potential solutions have appeared for smart transportation, aerospace exploration, smart logistics and smart cities. This article summarizes all kinds of autonomous moving platforms, proposes a definition of Smart- AMPs, and investigates taxonomy, technologies, applications, open issues and key challenges for Smart-AMPs. This article is suitable as a pedagogical overview of Smart-AMPs.
