UT Intelligent Robotics Research

Spatial reasoning and intelligent robotics based on the Spatial Semantic Hierarchy, has been a focus for research in the Qualitative Reasoning group.

Most of our work has concentrated on mobile robot exploration and mapping of previously unknown environments. We have used a number of different simulated robots, and are now working with several types of physical robots.

We have recently been exploring new methods for real-time active vision, primarily but not exclusively motivated by the navigational needs of a mobile robot.

Work on heterogeneous control (our approach to fuzzy control, supporting validation via qualitative simulation), is also relevant to the robotics research.
