Abstraction and compression of information utilizing real world for controlling remote controlled robot - Application to snake-like robot -

Recently, robots which operate in unpredictable complex environment have attracted much attention, and various remote controlled robots have been developed. However to control the robots, we have to send lots of information in real-time and it is a bottleneck in developing sophisticated robot. In this paper, we propose new framework to abstract and compress information without using computer. In this framework, we use properties of real world in stead of computer and solve the problem of real-time processing. We apply the framework for controlling a snake-like robot, and demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed framework.
