This course provides an introduction to cognitive robotics, a branch of robotics in which knowledge plays a central role in supporting action selection, planning, and execution. Cognition is essential for robots to be able to perform tasks in a response to a request by a human, but without the human having to specify explicitly everything that is needed to fulfil the task. Many everyday activities fall into this category. The goal of the course is to give students an understanding of what is involved in the design a cognitive robot and give them the knowledge and skills to produce working implementations for simple instances of cognitive fetch and place tasks.
