In the first year, 1996, we designed the total system of the mobile robot which we can ride on and teach the way where we want through the robot vision system. This year, we focused on the functions of memory based behaviors and speech communication.(1) Finding and memorization of the cue object to specify the way we want to go(a) finding the cue object specified in the shared view of the robot vision system, (b) finding and memorizeing the cues.(2) Addition of the speech recognition function to give instructions to the robot.The human riding on the robot can give the simple instruction to find the target cue object which has been taught in the teaching phase. When the robot can not understand the instruction, it can generate a question to confirm the meaning.(3) Total experimentsWe have experiments outdoors of our university campus to test the usefulness of the shared vision and the effectiveness of the memory based functions.
