Scenarios show improved robot responsiveness and safety
Abstract
We propose a solution for handling abort commands given to robots. The solution is exemplified with a running scenario with household kitchen robots. The robot uses planning to find sequences of actions that must be performed in order to gracefully cancel a previously received command. The Planning Domain Definition Language (PDDL) is used to write a domain to model kitchen activities and behaviours, and this domain is enriched with knowledge from online ontologies and knowledge graphs, like DBPedia. We discuss the results obtained in different scenarios.
