Abstract :
The authors describe a system which integrates a high-performance Lisp environment and a real-time operating system, PSOS. High-level tasks can be written in Common Lisp and Flavors and controlled by the real-time operating system. This system executes on a single VME bus board with a 32-bit CPU and 4-Mbytes of memory. Successful field tests were conducted on the EAVE (Experimental Autonomous Vehicle), which performed simple vehicle path planning
