An Object-Oriented Program Specification For a Mobile Robot Motion Control Language

Abstract

The Yamabico Research Group at the Naval Postgraduate School is actively pursuing improvements in design and implementation of applications for it's family of autonomous mobile robots. This paper describes a new high level language for controlling the Yamabico-11, surnamed OOPS-MML (Object-Oriented Program Specification for a Mobile robot Motion control Language). Conceptual goals included a user friendly, high level interface coupled with a very abstract, efficient and compartmentalized architecture to employ a path planning and tracking application developed at NPS. The result is a robust and flexible robot control system that is intended to be implemented and employed onboard the Yamabico-11.... MML, OOPS-MML
