| The vision of Robohow is to create cognitive service robots that can autonomously perform a large set of complex everyday manipulation tasks in real settings. Our goal is to realize a programming framework that enables programmers to semi-automatically expand autonomous service robot applications with little effort. Mechanisms that enable the robots to acquire skills relatively easily are crucial for enabling them to function autonomously in complex contexts while performing a wide range of complex tasks. These tasks cannot be pre-programmed because the set of potential tasks is so large the tasks are not known beforehand. | The vision of Robohow is to create cognitive service robots that can autonomously perform a large set of complex everyday manipulation tasks in real settings.

| The Robohow framework represents control programs as concurrent, percept-guided manipulation plans. It will use websites, visual instructions and haptic demonstration as primary information sources. These heterogeneous pieces of information will be integrated and combined with each other through an interface layer that provides an abstract machine for programming high-level robot manipulation plans. The interpreter for this abstract machine includes novel mechanisms for optimization and constraint-based movement specification, | The Robohow framework represents control programs as concurrent, percept-guided manipulation plans.

| We believe in taking personal robotics to the next level through active and free sharing of knowledge. The methodology and software for (self)improvement of robots under “open world” conditions developed by Robohow will be made available to the community. We will also refactor and extend existing open source robotics software to support this and make results easily accessible. | We believe in taking personal robotics to the next level through active and free sharing of knowledge.
