What is Spatial Intelligence?

Spatial Intelligence is the ability to understand and reason about the three-dimensional physical world, including how objects relate to each other in space, how they move, and how they interact. In AI, spatial intelligence refers to systems that can perceive, interpret, and navigate physical environments, understanding depth, geometry, physics, and spatial relationships the way humans do. This capability is essential for applications like robotics, autonomous vehicles, and augmented reality.
