- | == Situational awareness in kitchen environments (MA Thesis) == | ||
- | |||
- | This is a knowledge representation topic including knowledge graphs. The idea is so link external Web-knowledge to an existing knowledge framework in order to include situational awareness so that a robot acting in a household environment can infer what an object is used for in a given situation. | ||
- | |||
- | A result would be that a spoon next to a bowl with cereal would be used for eating while a spoon on a stove next to a pot would be used for stirring. | ||
- | |||
- | requirements: | ||
- | * Work with KnowRob knowledge processing framework | ||
- | * Work with knowledge graphs and Linked Data to create a situational awareness knowledge graph that can be linked to KnowRob | ||
- | * Implement reasoning about situations (based on perceived environment) and object use | ||

This requires a high degree of specialized game engine plugins that can simulate certain aspects of our research. Another important task is the creation of 3d models. | In our research group, we focus on the development of modern robots that can make use of the potential of game engines.
