ROMAN 2002, Berlin5 Funding Item Intelligent Systems in IT 2006 Situation, Starting Point 1.In the last 10 years, there has been considerable progress in image processing, in robotics, and in other adaptive control and planning systems 2.The classical algorithmic control concepts of robots fail in the case of problems of acting in a natural, non-coded environment 3.There is a wide field of new interesting applications and new industry branches develop in robotics 4.It is forseeable that the number of service robots will exceed the number of industry robots

ROMAN 2002, Berlin6 R&D Topics (including corresponding technical developments) Funding Item Intelligent Systems in IT Further development of image processing in relation to self perception, perception and analysis of visual scenarios 2.Investigation of self modeling and interactive instructions in robotics 3.Investigation of all aspects of interaction with human beings 4.Establishment of evaluation and benchmarking centers for intelligent systems

ROMAN 2002, Berlin Intelligent Systems Int. syst. for planning, control, etc Autonomous systemsInt. syst. for data and knowledge processing Methods of resolution for intelligent human technology interfaces Basic methods for Knowledge Processing Cooperation of man and machine in a combined working space Cooperative robots Prototypes for autonomous systems Funding Item Intelligent Systems in IT 2006 Including knowledge management at the work place First service robots for private homes Adaptive recognition methods in image and speech processing
