Safety control architecture for personal robots: Behavioural suppression with deliberative control (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Woodman, R., Winfield, A., Harper, C., & Fraser, M. (2010, June). Safety control architecture for personal robots: Behavioural suppression with deliberative control. Paper presented at 7th IARP Workshop on Technical Challenges for Dependable Robots in Human Environments (DRHE), Toulouse, France

This paper presents a novel robot control architecture for use with personal robots, and argues its potential for improving the safety of these types of system, when compared to existing approaches. The proposed architecture design separates the cont... Read More about Safety control architecture for personal robots: Behavioural suppression with deliberative control.
