Description
Design of intelligent robots is one of the most important endeavours in robotics research today. The key to intelligent robot design lies in sensory systems for robotic control and manipulation. In an unstructural environment, robotic sensing translates measurements and characteristics of the environment and working objects into useful information. A robotic system is usually equipped with a variety of sensors to perform redundant sensing and achieve data fusion. This book contains revised versions of papers presented at a NATO Advanced Research Workshop held in Florida in September 1989 within the activities of the NATO Special Programme on sensory systems for robotic control. The fundamental issues addressed in this volume were firstly theory and techniques, including knowledge-based systems, geometrical fusion, error-estimation approach and Markov process modelling. Secondly, general concepts, including microscopic redundancy at the sensory element level, parallel redundancy, and standby redundancy.
Thirdly, implementation and application, including robotic control, sensory technology, robotic assembly, robot fingers, sensory signal processing, sensory system integration and PAPIA architecture. Lastly, biological analogies, including neural nets, pattern recognition, low-level fusion, and motor learning.
