Abstract

An intelligent robot has been developed which understands the goal a user wants to be performed, recognizes its environment, develops strategies to execute the goal and operates autonomously. By means of a speech recognition sensor the robot listens to a spoken command and derives the goal a user wants the robot to perform, i.e. to bring a specific object. Next, the robot uses its smart camera and other sensors to scan the environment and search for the demanded object. After it has found and identified the object, it grabs it and brings it to the user. Additionally, a method for generating a will is proposed. This enables the robot to operate optimally even under conflicting requirements.
