Semantics and implementation of a language for telerobotics

摘要

For many years, the LIMI has been working on a new language, suited to remote-control robots. This language called PILOT (Programming and Interpreted Language Of actions for Telerobotics), allows the operator to modify easily a plan or to intervene in a mission during its execution, due to its visual and interpreted features. It is based on an operational semantics, and has been implemented under the shape of chained lists, that makes possible its interpretation. The associated software architecture is composed of three main modules (an interpretation module, an execution one and a knowledge database), which are managing the different aspects of plan execution. In the conclusion, a new approach is presented and a short showing of the new mobile robot is done.
