A Golog/Prolog - Tekkotsu Interface

This software interface (developed by Mr. Huy Pham) allows Golog programs running in ECLiPSe Prolog

to control a Sony Aibo ERS-7 robot, via the Tekkotsu framework. It needs ECLiPSe Prolog

to work with linear constraints on moments of time when (concurrent) actions can be

executed. Note that Tekkotsu is an open source project created and maintained at

Carnegie Mellon University.

Notes:

  1. Tekkotsu builds on the basic functionality provided by OPEN-R (AIBO Software Developement Environment developed by Sony). It is written in C++, like the underlying system APIs. However, knowledge of the underlying Aperios operating system and the OPEN-R API is not necessary before using Tekkotsu and Prolog-Tekkotsu interface.
  2. This Golog/Prolog-Tekkotsu interface has been implemented with the intention to support teaching and research in Cognitive Robotics.
