The smart object is a container designed to hold the layer’s contents. This container protects its content from harm. Users of the container can resize and scale it as per their needs. They can also apply warps, distortions, transformations and filters of the Photoshop to the smart object devoid of compromising the quality and making a permanent change to the layer inside it.
