Asfaloth: A Simulated Voice Controlled Vehicle
A conversational mobile robot or vehicle must understand spatial prepositions. We propose to ground prepositions like "across", "along", "in", and "on" in terms of what types of motion they allow. For example, when an entity is "in" something, its motion is constrained in certain ways. We will formalize this intuition using schema and use that formalization to control the robot's behavior. This work has applications in creating voice controlled vehicles and mobile robots that understand high level natural language commands.
