Abstract

Programming of service robots is an expensive and difficult task especially when manipulator arms are involved. This is one of the drawbacks for every day use of these systems. Programming by Demonstration is a means to let users program robots simply by demonstrating a task like putting a table or composing an object to a system that observes, interprets and then maps the performed user action to a given manipulator. Although progress has been made in certain areas, applications to real-world environments are limited.
