@TECHREPORT{AICPub1080:1970, AUTHOR={Raphael, B.}, TITLE={Research and Applications - Artificial Intelligence}, INSTITUTION={Stanford Research Institute}, MONTH={November}, YEAR={1970}, KEYWORDS={Robot, Shakey, Frame Problem, Problem-Solving Research, Vision, QA4, STRIPS, Scene Analysis}, ABSTRACT={This is the final report for the most recent year of a continuing program of research in the field of artificial intelligence. This work follows previous projects that resulted in the design, construction, and demonstration of a “first generation” robot system. The work reported here consists of new research aimed at the development of a more sophisticated “second generation” robot. Although the robot vehicle itself will be essentially unchanged, it will be controlled by a completely new computer hardware and software system. In particular, this report contains detailed descriptions of the computer configuration and the bottom-level software design, two new bases for problem-solving systems (called STRIPS and QA4) , and new directions in visual scene-analysis techniques. Includes as appendicies
