-The [[http://www.roboearth.org|RoboEarth]] project targets at building a "World Wide Web for Robots" and covers different aspects like the generation and execution of task descriptions, sensing, learning, a central web knowledge base; TUM is responsible for developing methods for representing and reasoning about the exchanged knowledge.+The [[http://www.roboearth.org|RoboEarth]] project targets at building a "World Wide Web for Robots" where robots with their programmers can collectively build "action recipes".

 +These libraries of action recipes that are shared between robots will drastically reduce the efforts for building new robot applications.
  
-The central RoboEarth knowledge base contains descriptions of actions (called "action recipes"), objects, and environments. These pieces of information have been created by different robots with different sensing, acting and processing capabilities. Therefore, +Within the RoboEarth project, our group investigates the knowledge representation and processing mechanisms for uploadingexchangingdownloading and applying action recipes.
-all of them have different requirements on capabilities a robot must have in +
-order to use them. The developed language thus provides methods for matching +
-these required capabilities against those available on the robot. +
-Each robot has a self-model consisting of a description of its kinematic +
-structureincluding the positions of sensors and actuators, a semantic +
-model that describes the meaning of the robot's parts (e.g. that certain joints +
-form a gripper), and a set of software components like object recognition +
-systems. We developed the [[http://www.ros.org/wiki/mod_srdl|Semantic Robot Description Language]] to describe these components and the capabilities they provide, and to match them to the requirements specified for action recipes.+
