Research Abstract |
The purposes of this study are to consider and find the followings : 1) Information necessary to represent an environmental map 2) Structure of environmental map 3) How to generate and modify an environmental map 4) Path planning using an environmental map The above 1) and 2) were studied in 1990. In 1990, the issues 3) and 4) have been studied. A proposed map, based on the cognitive map of human, is qualitative and contains information such as action at intersection with a landmark, relative-locatioon and a sequence of landmarks in a path. A method of path-finding using the map is based on association from a scene. And modes of robot movement necessary for tasks such as map generation and path-finding are determined. As a result of computer simulation, the validity of our approach have been certified.
