Description
Summary:Robots operating under not standardized conditions such as assistive robots must understand the goals a user wants to be performed, recognize the environment in context with the goals, develop strategies to execute them and act autonomously. By means of intelligent sensors for speech recognition, proximity measurement, color measurement and image processing an intelligent humanoid robot has been developed. It understands a goal by recognizing the name of an object a user has told the robot to take and searches for it by means of a smart camera and other sensors. After it has found and identified the object, it grabs it and brings it to the user. The robot can learn new words and co-operate with other robots, if necessary. Additionally, a method for generating a will is proposed. This enables the robot to operate optimally even under conflicting requirements.
