If you have ever hiked up a steep hill to reach a viewpoint, you will know that sensing can involve the expenditure of effort. More generally, the choice of which movement an intelligent system chooses to make is usually based on information gleaned from sensors. But the information required to make the motion decision may not be immediately to hand, so the system . first has to plan a motion whose purpose is to acquire the needed sensor information. Again, this conforms to our everyday experience: I am in the woods and don't know which direction to go, so I climb up to the ridge to get my...

Robotics is a highly interdisciplinary research topic, that requires integration of methods for mechanics, control engineering, signal processing, planning, gra- ics, human-computer interaction, real-time systems, applied mathematics, and software engineering to enable construction of fully operational systems. The diversity of topics needed to design, implement, and deploy such systems implies that it is almost impossible for individual teams to provide the needed critical mass for such endeavors. To facilitate interaction and progress on sensor-based intelligent robotics inter-disciplinary...

The collection of articles presented here, emerged from the Block Island Workshop on Vision and Control that brought together pioneering researchers from around the world. Discussions of new theoretical developments and the empirical validation of techniques and applications, are recorded in this book. Over recent years, robotics, computer vision and control theory researchers have addressed theoretical issues of: real-time vision, visual tracking, the active focus of attention and vision-based control of motion. At the same time, these theoretical insights have been used in applications such...
