Sensations and Perceptions in “Cicerobot” a Museum Guide Robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper discusses a model of phenomenology based on the distinction between sensations and perceptions and it proposes an architecture based on a comparison process between the effective and the expected sensations generated by a 3D robot/environment simulator. The phenomenal perceptions are thus generated by the simulator driven by the comparison process. The paper contributes to the consciousness research field by testing the added value of phenomenology on an effective robot architecture implemented on an operating autonomous robot RWI B21 offering guided tours at the Archaeological Museum of Agrigento, Italy.
