Role Transfer for Robot Tasking
نویسنده
چکیده
The Problem: Robot tasking addresses how a user can induce a mechanically general-purpose robot to perform a particular operation. It is crucial for the success of tasking that the robot can acquire a sufficient characterization of the context of the task from the user to avoid having to fall back on unconstrained object recognition and segmentation, which are currently difficult to apply in practice. It is also useful if tasking is consistent with natural human behavior, which can be taken as a de facto standard for communicating about physical objects and actions.

Title: Role Transfer for Robot Tasking
Robotics has proven most successful in narrowly defined domains that offer sufficient constraints to make automated perception and action tractable. The goal of this thesis is to take a step towards generality by developing methods for applying a robot to many different narrow domains. This is complementary to the more common research goal of enhancing machine perception and action to deal with...
متن کاملUse of mission roles as a robotic tasking device
With the increased use of specialized robots within heterogeneous robotic teams, as envisioned by DARPA's Tactical Mobile Robotics program, the task of dynamically assigning work to individual robots becomes more complex and critical to mission success. The team must be able to perform all essential aspects of the mission, deal with dynamic and complex environments, and detect, identify, and co...
متن کاملModeling of Advanced Tasking in Ada-95: A Petri Net Perspective
The Ada language has been designed to support development of concurrent and distributed sojiware. While the Ada-83 standard defined the basic mechanisms of rendezvous-based tasking, the Ada-95 standard significantly extended this capability with the introduction of several advanced tasking constructs. We present and discuss formal models of these key tasking constructs using the Petri net model...
متن کاملA Remote Robotics Laboratory on the Internet
This paper describes ongoing work toward a remote robotics research site which allows repeatable remote experimentation on multiple mobile robots. Our system consists of ten small mobile robots hosting onboard Unix workstations. The robots provide facilities for sensing and moving obstacles, inter-robot positioning and communications, and user input. The Unix workstations allow the user to cont...
