ART-drone
itemART-drone appears in Murderbot Diaries.
ART-drone emerges in the later stages of the Murderbot Diaries as an extension of the powerful AI ship ART, allowing it to interact more directly with physical environments and allies. In System Collapse, this drone form enables ART to participate in high-stakes planetary operations alongside Murderbot, marking a shift from purely ship-based presence to mobile agency. Its deployment underscores ART's evolving willingness to risk aspects of itself in support of its human and SecUnit friends, deepening the themes of artificial autonomy and partnership.
