ABSTRACT:
A robot apparatus integrates individual recognition results received asynchronously and then passes the integrated information to a behavior module. Thus, handling of information in the behavior module is facilitated. Since information regarding recognized observation results is held as a memory, even if observation results are temporarily missing, it appears to an upper module that items are constantly there in perception. Accordingly, insusceptibility against recognizer errors and sensor noise is improved, so that a stable system that is not dependent on timing of notifications by recognizers is implemented. Thus, the robot apparatus integrates a plurality of recognition results from external environment and handles the integrated information as meaningful symbol information, allowing sophisticated behavior control.
