681–704 683 Figure 1. SILO-6 walking robot. Thus, we can see the importance elevation maps have held for autonomous mobile robots on irregular terrain for about the last decade. Elevation maps have been used mainly for navigation purposes in general, and, in some legged-robot applications, elevation maps have also provided a starting point for finding adequate footholds to improve traction and reduce foot slippage. However, terrain information can also help reduce the support…

desenvoltura com que atravessavam fronteiras nacionais, tinham pátria bem definida - a pátria de origem do seu capital. E por isso, muitos estudiosos pre ferem chamá-las “empresas transnacionais”.

Chapter 1 Autonomous robots Both animals and robots manipulate objects in their environment in order to achieve certain goals. Animals use their senses (e.g. vision, touch, smell) to probe the environment. The resulting information, in many cases also enhanced by the information available from internal states (based on short-term or long-term memory), is processed in the brain, often resulting in an action carried out by the animal, with the use of its limbs. Similary, robots gain…
