Unmanned vehicles: the future is out there!
Transport and TRADE go hand in hand. Given the Congress’ theme of artificial intelligence, both commissions will bring a joint workshop drawing the attention to the present and future of unmanned transportation and intelligent retail, including the use of drone vessels,automated aircrafts and vehicles and other ways for optimizing transportation and trade. The workshop will provide a practical view of new technologies being developed, in addition to inviting the audience for an open and multi-jurisdictional debate related to the use of AI in transport and trade.
