Abstract

Robotics plays an important role in the applications of Artificial Intelligence in Engineering, since it deals with the interaction of an intelligent system with the world by means of perception and action. However, Robotics has been traditionaly considered as just a mere application area of AI. In this paper, the role of perception and action in current AI systems is analyzed and some recent fundamental results concerning the use of Robotic Intelligence for applications of AI in Engineering are discussed, in order to build artificial systems that behave in an intelligent way in the real world. Finally, two implemented systems based on this methodology are described to show the relevance of the proposed strategy to Engineering applications, one using visual perception, and another based on f
