Abstract :
Proposes a robot architecture that enables us to progressively develop a robot. The architecture consisting of situated modules has merits of both the traditional function-based and behavior-based architectures in addition to the merit in the development. We have developed a robot based on the architecture. By reporting the development process, the paper discusses advantages of the proposed architecture
