Abstract (EN):
This paper describes the main design options of the PO-ROBOT project. The PO-ROBOT project consists in the design and the implementation of the Vehicle and Mission Management Systems of a mobile platform for autonomous transportation, surveillance and inspection in structured and semi-structured industrial environments. This project is funded by the NATO Programme Science for Stability and the Institute for Systems and Robotics. The Vehicle and Mission Management Systems are based in a hierarchical control structure organized linguistically permitting the parallel execution of tasks in real-time. This architecture is composed by the following three levels structured according to the IPDI (Increasing Precision with Decreasing Intelligence) Principle: Organization, Coordination and Functional Layer.
