Sensor driven robot systems testbed
Intelligent robot systems which operate in a semiautonomous fashion (i.e., the operator serves only as a high level supervisor) require the integration of sensors and mechanisms coupled by intelligent software. Since each robot systems operate in the real world with imperfect knowledge of that world, error recovery is an important aspect of any control strategy. Configured with a 6 degree-of-freedom robot manipulator, two dimensional vision and force sensing, the Sensor Driven Robot Systems Testbed offers an environment for the development of control concepts for intelligent machine systems. The Sensor Driven Robot Systems Testbed has led to the development of active sensing concepts using complementary sensors and a highly modular control software concept. Both concepts are currently being implemented within the testbed environment.
