Abstract in another language
This paper describes an approach to intuitive robot programming, with the aim of enabling non-experts to generate sensor-based, structured programs. The core idea is to generate a variant of a finite state automaton (representing the program) by kinesthetic programming (physically guiding the robot). We use the structure of the automaton for control flow (loops and branching according to conditions of the environment). For programming, we forgo a visual user interface completely to determine to what extent this is viable. Our experiments show that non-expert users are indeed able to successfully program small sample tasks within reasonable time.
