A drone and a truck need the same four things.
A pack, a drive, a controller, and a structure to hold them. The machines look nothing alike. The bill of materials rhymes.
Aerial drones
Multirotor and fixed-wing
Ground vehicles
Unmanned platforms, inspection, defence
Sea vessels
Electric craft and surface drones
Submersibles
Underwater drones and ROVs
Robots
Mobile robots, arms, actuators
Cars and trucks
Road and off-road
Beyond mobility
Some of it never moves at all
Motors and solid-state packs end up in automation cells, grid storage and electrified implements. Same parts, same kit, same invoice.
