Situation Switching in the Aibo Robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work is focused on implementing situation switching in an AIBO robot inside an unpredictable environment. The goal is to achieve intelligent situation dependent reactive behavior without modifying the underlying planning algorithm. The focus is on visible intelligent behavior for a robot. Our ideas are illustrated using a benchmark experiment featuring an AIBO in a maze. The implementation is in accordance to the model and terminology for data fusion adopted by the Department of Defense Joint Directors of Laboratories.

AIBO as a Needs-Based Companion Dog
In this paper we describe the architecture that allows the modeling of an emotionally intelligent robotic companion dog. We chose to implement this architecture for AIBO, which is a dog-like autonomous robot, developed by Sony. AIBO was developed as an entertainment robot and its ‘mind’ is programmable. The focus of this paper is on creating a complex personality model that provides a realistic...
متن کاملSocial behaviour of dogs encountering AIBO, an animal-like robot in a neutral and in a feeding situation.
The use of animal-like autonomous robots might offer new possibilities in the study of animal interactions, if the subject recognises it as a social partner. In this paper we investigate whether AIBO, a dog-like robot of the Sony Corp. can be used for this purpose. Twenty-four adult and sixteen 4-5 months old pet dogs were tested in two situations where subjects encountered one of four differen...

This paper presents selected methods used by the vision system of the GermanTeam, the World Champion in the Sony Four-Legged League in 2004. Color table generalization is introduced as a means to achieve a larger independence of the lighting situation. Camera calibration is necessary to deal with the weaknesses of the new platform used in the league, the Sony Aibo ERS-7. Since the robot camera ...

The 21st century will become an era of autonomous robots that help and support people. Thus, they will be considered as partners of human beings. In this paper, the author introduces AIBO, the first product model of Robot Entertainment Systems. The main application of this robot is a pet-style robot, which must maintain a lifelike appearance. The author suggests how to maximize the complexity o...
متن کاملEvolving Robust Gaits with AIBO
An evolutionary algorithm is used to evolve gaits with the Sony entertainment robot, AIBO. All processing is handled by the robot's on-board computer with individuals evaluated using the robot's hardware. By sculpt-ing the experimental environment, we increase robust-ness to diierent surface types and diierent AIBOs. Evolved gaits are faster than those created by hand. Using this technique we e...
