متن کاملDesigning an Intelligent Control Architecture for Autonomous Robots
Designing a control architecture for autonomous robots able to reason and to act in their environment to accomplish tasks, and to adapt in real time to the actual execution context, raises major questions in the eld of control theory, knowledge-based and reasoning systems, as well as software architecture. We propose in this paper an approach to build such systems, based on the experiences and ...
متن کاملVisual Control of an Autonomous Indoor Robotic Blimp
The problem of visual control of an indoor blimp autonomously is investigated in this chapter. Autonomous aerial vehicles have been an attractive platform for a wide range of applications, especially since they don’t have the terrain limitations the autonomous ground vehicles face. They have been used for advertisements, terrain mapping, surveillance and environmental research. Blimps are a spe...
