摘要
This paper deals with the architecture and control structure of mobile robots, We decompose robot functions into modules organized according to their predefined interactions: sensor modules that accomplish various processings on data from physical sensors, effector modules that issue commands to effecters, servo-processes that establish links between perception and action to achieve closed-loop behaviors, and functional units that provide specific functionalities. These modules, and hence the robot system itself, are controlled by a control system that also enables the robot to execute missions (plans) expressed in a command language. We introduce and discuss a generic control system structure, composed of a Supervisor that interprets the plan and oversees its execution, an Executive for operating and managing robot modules and resources, a Surveillance Manager for detecting and reacting to asynchronous events, and an Error Recovery module for local plan mending and correction, Several experimental examples are given.
