Shakey: The First Mobile Robot with Reasoning and Perception
Source: sri.com · May 25, 2026
Summary
Shakey, developed at SRI International in the late 1960s, was the first mobile robot that could perceive its environment and reason about its actions. It combined vision, planning, and locomotion in a way that laid the foundation for modern robotics and AI. This work pioneered concepts like STRIPS planning and A* search, making it a historic milestone.
