==ROBOT PLANNING FOR GAPS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18390358 titled 'ROBOT PLANNING FOR GAPS

The abstract of this patent application describes methods, systems, and apparatus for robot planning, including maintaining a library of pre-generated candidate actions, modifying task plans, and selecting actions for robots to perform tasks efficiently.

* The method involves storing pre-generated candidate actions representing robot capabilities.
* An initial task plan is received, consisting of a sequence of actions.
* The plan is processed to ensure the first action does not satisfy the second action's precondition.
* Candidate actions are selected from the library to modify the task plan.
* The final task plan is generated for robots to execute when performing the task.

Potential Applications:
- Industrial automation
- Logistics and warehouse management
- Autonomous vehicles
- Healthcare robotics
- Search and rescue missions

Problems Solved:
- Enhancing efficiency in task planning for robots
- Improving task execution accuracy
- Streamlining robot operations

Benefits:
- Increased productivity
- Reduced errors in task execution
- Optimal resource utilization

Commercial Applications:
Robot planning software for manufacturing companies to streamline production processes and improve efficiency in task execution.

Questions about Robot Planning:
1. How does this technology improve the overall efficiency of robot operations?
2. What are the key factors to consider when selecting candidate actions for task plan modification?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for robot planning. One of the methods includes maintaining a library of pre-generated candidate actions that represent respective robot capabilities; receiving an initial task plan for performing a particular task, wherein the initial task plan includes a sequence of two or more actions that comprises a first action followed by a second action; processing the initial task plan to determine that the first effect of the first action does not result in satisfaction of the second precondition of the second action; selecting one or more selected pre-generated candidate actions from the library of pre-generated candidate actions; and modifying the initial task plan to include the one or more selected pre-generated candidate actions as the intermediate actions to generate a final task plan to be executed by the one or more particular robots when performing the particular task.
