Simplified Robot Programming


This project studies an approach to Programming by Demonstration (PbD) called What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) robot programming. Here the user ‘explains’ the action to the robot rather than ‘demonstrates’ the action. In the proposed approach generalization occurs after every demonstration example and the generalized program is then visually presented to the user. This allows the user to direct the generalization process. The user may use this feedback to better convey the intent. The WYSIWYG approach differs from other PbD systems because it assumes that only the user has a true understanding of the user’s intent.
