Abstract

In this chapter, we will describe the application of the sensor modeling and integration algorithms described, to the problem of coordinating and integrating information from both visual and tactile sensing systems. This implementation was originally developed as part of a distributed robot control system [Paul 86]. The goals of this system were to provide a robust, extensible multi-sensor robot controller in which sensors and other components of the system, maintain a large degree of local autonomy or decision making capability; executing and guiding task execution in a highly parallel manner.
