Product Description: Algorithms that control the computational processes relating sensors and actuators are indispensable for robot navigation and the perception of the world in which they move. Therefore, a deep understanding of how algorithms work to achieve this control is essential for the development of efficient and usable robots in a broad field of applications...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The papers in this volume are based on talks given at a workshop on the Integration of Numerical and Symbolic Computing Methods, held in Saratoga Springs, New York, in July 1990. The Workshop was Sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) , the Air Force Office of Sponsored Research (AFOSR), General Electric Research and Development, Schenectady, and the State University of New York at Albany...read more

Product Description: Robotics is the science that attempts to forge an intelligent, computational connection between perception and action. Perhaps the most fundamental problems in robotics today are uncertainty and error in control, sensing, and modelling...read more
