SENSATIONS AND PERCEPTIONS IN 'CICEROBOT', A MUSEUM GUIDE ROBOT

摘要

The paper discusses the distinction between sensations and perceptions in consciousness literature and it proposes a robot architecture based on a comparison between the effective sensations and the expected sensations generated by a 3D robot/environment simulator. The robot perceptions are generated by the simulator driven by this comparison process. The architecture is operating in "Cicerobot" a museum robot offering guided tours at the Archaeological Museum of Agrigento, Italy.
