Creating emergent behaviors: two robotics labs that combine reactive behaviors
ACM SIGCSE Bulletin (SIGCSE), Volume 37, Issue 1Pages 441–445https://doi.org/10.1145/1047124.1047487Most undergraduate robotics courses introduce reactive behaviors, behaviors that are not mediated by world knowledge or a world model. What is missing from these courses, however, is the experience of combining reactive behaviors to create emergent ...

The Khepera robot and the kRobot class: a platform for introducing robotics in the undergraduate curriculum
We discuss a class interface for the Khepera robot that makes the robot an excellent platform for undergraduate robotics courses and robot-based lab exercises in other courses. The interface hides low-level robot-computer communication and permits the ...
