Robotics Engineering Colloquium Series: Professor Neil Dantam
Robot Planning and Manipulation: Symbols, Geometry, and Feasibility\n\n\n\n
       \n      \n\n\n\nAbstract: Autonomous robots need to decide on action
 s and follow motions to achieve those actions, yet issues of symbolic plan
 ning and motion planning have long been addressed separately. This talk de
 scribes our work on integrated task and motion planning leading to a key c
 hallenge, and our novel results, on deciding the existence of motion plans
 . This line of work offers new capabilities for robots to plan for difficu
 lt and complex manipulation scenarios.\nBio: Neil T. Dantam is an Associat
 e Professor of Computer Science at the Colorado School of Mines. His work 
 focuses on robot planning and manipulation, covering task and motion plann
 ing, kinematics, robot communication, and real-time software.\n
