Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Design Robotic Systems

Abstract This paper gives a restricted survey on the application of some of the so called artificial intelligence (AI) methods and tools which can be used to model, simulate, design and implement robotized systems. AI in design and planning of robotic systems means the application of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), Expert Systems (ES), Knowledge Based Systems (KBS), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Petri nets, Fuzzy Systems (FS), Genetic Algorithms (GA) and several other things including pattern recognition, vision, voice and tactile systems and learning. Modeling and simulation in our recent understanding are more design assistance tools, than the goal of AI applications thus they completely fit into our recent topics.
