Definição
Learning the possibilities of action helps the robot not only recognize an object, but also understand what can be done with it. You can take a cup by the handle, a door can be opened, a button can be pressed, a box can be moved. The system connects the perception of an object with acceptable actions and their results.
Exemplo
A robot in a warehouse sees a box and evaluates which side is safer to grab with its manipulator.
Por que importa
The term is important for practical robotics: recognizing an object by itself does not guarantee that the robot will be able to interact with it correctly.
Como funciona
The model learns from observations, simulations, or actions of the robot. It relates the shape, material, position and context of an object to the likelihood of a successful action.
Onde é usado
- robotic gripper
- home robots
- industrial manipulators
Limitações
The system may make errors with new objects, non-standard materials, poor lighting, or a changed environment.
