An Intelligent Software Architecture for Semi � autonomous Robot Control

This paper describes a software architecture that al lows for traded control of a robot manipulator per forming a pick and place task The software architec ture combines multi agent planning conditional se quencing robot control and user interfaces to allow for a user to intervene at any level of robot task ex ecution At the heart of the software architecture is the T architecture which allows for hybrid delibera tive reactivecontrol of a robot Tis augmentedwith user interfacetools thatgive theoperators insight into the robot s actions and possible operator actions
