Abstract

The principal idea advocated in this paper is to design the control logic for the mobile robot using the XTT2 representation, and the execute it with a dedicated inference engine. XTT2 is a declarative rule-based representation, that has a strict logical description. It also provides a high level visual representation combining decision tables into an inference network. In the paper a dedicated API for Mindstorms NXT is also presented. It is combined with HeaRT rule engine running the XTT2 model to control a mobile robot.
