State of the Robot

State = (x , y , z )

(x , y) Cartesian coordinates of the location of the robot

z indicates the direction of the face of the robot

Z=1Z=2Z=3Z=4Z=5Z=6Z=7Z=8Robot base

Direction of robot’s face

Example Area to be traversed

The Big Picture

Vision

Hand

Motion AbilitiesVs

Tasks

Conclusion

• A Robot can be build with abilities rather than tasks

• A Task for the robot can be exclusively programmed using a smart phone
