Heterarchy in the M.I.T. Robot
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-03)
The J%JOIN Package
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-04-02)
The J%JOIN program creates links between the elements of a set of line segments on the basis of their geometric proximity. According to the value of the third argument, (T or NIL), the program will either place a set of ...
The Line Proposer P%PROPOSE1, and Additional Notes on "F%FEATUREPOINTS" and "GVERIFY1"
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-04-02)
The line proposer P%PROPOSE1 is described in the first part of this memo. It makes use of links provided by the J%JOIN program, in proposing possibly missing lines in a line drawing of simple plane-faced objects. The ...
Resolving Visual Ambiguity with a Probe
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-07)
The eye-hand robot at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory now possesses the ability to occasionally copy simple configurations of blocks, using spare parts about whose presence it knows. One problem with which it cannot ...
What Corners Look Like
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-06)
An algorithm is presented which provides a way of telling what a given trihedral corner will look like if viewed from a particular angle. The resulting picture is a junction of two or more lines each labelled according to ...
Wandering About the Top of the Robot
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-07)
Part I of this paper describes some of the new functions in the system. The discussion is seasoned here and there with parenthetical code fragments that may be ignored by readers unfamiliar with PLANNER.
Part II discussed ...
The Binford-Horn LINEFINDER
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-07)
This paper briefly describes the processing performed in the course of producing a line drawing from vidisector information.
What's What
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1971-03)
An outline of the modules used in the copy demonstration, the reasons for doing robotics, and some possible directions for further work.
Mechanical Arm Control
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-03-19)
This paper discusses three main problems associated with the control of the motion of a mechanical arm.
1) Transformation between different coordinate systems used to describe the state of the arm.
2) Calculation of ...
Description of Visual Texture by Computers
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-03-09)
Some general properties of textures are discussed for a restricted class of textures. A program is described which inputs a scene using vidisector camera, discerns the texture elements, calculates values for a set of ...
