The TRACK Program Package
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-08)
A collection of LISP functions has been written to provide vidisector users with the following three line-oriented vision primitives:
(i) given an initial point and an estimated initial direction, track a line in that ...
Tracking Wires on Printed Circuit Boards
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-10)
This working paper describes a collection of LISP programs written to examine the backs of printed circuit boards. These programs find and trace the conductive wires plated on the insulating material. The "pads", or solder ...
Does Vision Need a Special-purpose Language?
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-09)
This paper briefly discusses the following questions: What are the benefits of special-purpose languages? When is a field ready for such a language? Are any parts of our current vision research ready?
Active Knowledge
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-10)
A progress report on the work described in Vision Flashes 33 and 43 on recognition of real objects. Emphasis is on the "active" use of knowledge in directing the flow of visual processing.
The Little Robot System
(1973-01-01)
The Little Robot System provides for the I.T.S. user a medium size four degree of freedom six axis robot which is controlled by the PDP-6 computer through the programming language Lisp. The robot includes eight force ...
Proposal to ARPA for Continuation of Micro-Automation Development
(1973-01-01)
This proposal discusses practical aspects of our project to produce a replicable research tool for development of real-world computer-controlled hand-eye systems. If this proposal is read out of context, it will not seem ...
The Making of the Film, SOLAR CORONA
(1973-02-01)
The film SOLAR CORONA was made from data taken from August 14, 1969 through May 7, 1970, by OSO-VI, one of the Orbiting Satellite Observatories. One of the experiments on board scanned across and up and down the image of ...
Finding the Skeleton of a Brick
(1973-03-01)
TC-SKELETONs duty is to help find the dimensions of brick shaped objects by searching for sets of three complete edges, one for each dimension. The program was originally written by Patrick Winston, and then was refined ...
Proposal to ARPA for Research on Intelligent Automata and Micro-Automation
(1973-09-01)
The results of a decade of work in Artificial Intelligence have brought us to the threshold of a new phase of knowledge-based programming -- in which we can design computer systems that (1) react reasonably to significantly ...
Uses of Technology to Enhance Education
(1973-06-01)
Section 1: Schematic outline of project and what we want. Hardly any intellectual content. Section 2: Statement of our goals in general terms. This statement is intended to have serious intellectual content but lacks meaty ...
