Abstract
Robotics is that field concerned with the connection of perception to action. Artificial Intelligence must have a central role in Robotics if the connection is to be intelligent. Artificial Intelligence addresses the crucial questions of: what knowledge is required in any aspect of thinking; how that knowledge should be represented; and how that knowledge should be used Robotics challenges AI by forcing it to deal with real objects in the real world. Techniques and representations developed for purely cognitive problems, often in toy domains, do not necessarily extend to meet the challenge.
TL;DRRobotics challenges AI by forcing it to deal with real objects in the real world by adapting techniques and representations developed for purely cognitive problems to meet the challenge. (Semantic Scholar)
