Challenges
- f the Physical W
- rld
The physical world we live in is very demanding especially for robots.
- Inaccessibility
- Articial sensors are still imperfect or too perfect.
- Nondeterminism
- A robot needs to deal with uncertainty.

Challenges
- f the Physical W
- rld 2
- Nonepisodicity
- Eects of an action change over time.
- Dynamics
- Robots need to decide when to think and when to
act immediately.
- Continuity
- States and actions are drawn from a continuum of
physical congurations and motions.

What are Robots Good For?
CPSC 433 Articial Intelligence: An Introduction Christian Jacob, University of Calgary
- Finemotion boundederror planning
- Assumes bounds on sensor and actuator uncertainty.
Partial knowledge of the environment is known to the
system.
Most of the planning is done oine. Used for planning small, precise motions of assembly
robots.
