ABSTRACT

At present, the robot embedded system has some common problems as poor closure and dynamic evolution. Aiming at the situation, the paper focused on the improvement of robot embedded system, and set up architecture of robot system whose control center is Appendage SoftMan based on the syncretic mechanism of robot and SoftMan. The paper mainly paid attention to the research on Appendage SoftMan: used machine cogmatics theory as the guide to put forward the SoftMan knowledge and behavior model and the corresponding specification of conduct; constructed the architecture of Appendage SoftMan, and designed it based on the SoftMan knowledge and behavior model; materialized the theoretical research work as a nonlinear node detecting robot to make an application. Practice had proved that the robot system whose control center is Appendage SoftMan can implement the dynamic and real-time change of task, and its performance could not be affected.

Keywords:
