Visual language programming: for robot command/control in unstructured environments
LARRY J. LEIFER, H. F. Machiel Van der Loos, David S. Lees · 1991
Behavior specification is a barrier to widespread use of robots in unstructured environments. Experience with storyboard graphics, animation, text, speech and sound effects used in a visual-language prosthesis, Lingraphica, suggests that robot motion and task planning can be specified efficiently and with a minimum of training using text-graphic primitives. The approach complements adaptive environmental sensing and control.>
