Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) have revolutionized the field of advanced robotics in recent years. AI, ML, and DL are transforming the field of advanced robotics, making robots more intelligent, efficient, and adaptable to complex tasks and environments. Some of the applications of AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics include autonomous navigation, object recognition and manipulation, natural language processing, and predictive maintenance. These technologies are also being used in the development of collaborative robots (cobots) that can work alongside humans and adapt to changing environments and tasks. The AI, ML, and DL can be used in advanced transportation systems in order to provide safety, efficiency, and convenience to the passengers and transportation companies . Also, the AI, ML, and DL are playing a critical role in the advancement of manufacturing assembly robots, enabling them to work more efficiently, safely, and intelligently. Furthermore, they have a wide range of applications in aviation management, helping airlines to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and improve customer satisfaction. Moreover, the AI, ML, and DL can help taxi companies in order to provide better, more efficient, and safer services to customers. The research presents an overview of current developments in AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems and discusses various applications of the systems in robot modification. Further research works regarding the applications of AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems are also suggested in order to fill the gaps between the existing studies and published papers. By reviewing the applications of AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems, it is possible to investigate and modify the performances of advanced robots in various applications in order to enhance productivity in advanced robotic industries.

Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.

TL;DR

This narrative review surveys how artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) are being applied across advanced robotics, including manufacturing, transportation, drones, ship navigation, aviation, and taxi services. It argues these technologies can make robots more intelligent, efficient, adaptable, and safe, while also outlining major data, computation, safety, and ethical challenges.

Key findings

  • AI, ML, and DL are reported to enable applications such as autonomous navigation, object recognition and manipulation, natural language processing, predictive maintenance, collaborative robots, and autonomous vehicles.
  • The review lists advantages including automation, enhanced accuracy, adaptability, predictive maintenance, improved decision-making, efficiency, safety, and cost reduction.
  • Specific performance examples include a Random Forest-based localization method achieving 98.8% accuracy, CNN use for object recognition, DDPG for motion planning, PPO for robotic arm control, and Faster R-CNN/YOLO for object detection.
  • Challenges identified include the need for large amounts of high-quality data, real-time processing and computational/energy constraints, adaptability in dynamic environments, safety around humans, and ethical/societal concerns such as job displacement and bias.

Methods

  • Design: narrative review/overview of current developments in AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems.
  • Data or sample: no primary dataset or experimental sample is reported; the paper synthesizes published literature and examples across robotics domains.
  • Main analysis: thematic discussion of applications, advantages, challenges, and future research directions, supported by references and figures; no formal systematic search or quantitative meta-analysis is described.

Limitations

  • The paper does not explicitly state limitations of the review itself; it lists challenges for AI/ML/DL in robotics, including data quality and availability, real-time computation, energy constraints, adaptability, safety, and ethical/societal risks.
  • Evident from the text: as a narrative review, it does not report a systematic search strategy, inclusion/exclusion criteria, or quantitative synthesis, and its coverage is broad and example-based rather than exhaustive.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-03, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-03 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
