    • What is Delaying the Manipulator Revolution? 

      Horn, Berthold K.P. (MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1978-02)
      Despite two decades of work on mechanical manipulators and their associated controls, we do not see wide-spread application of these devices to many of the tasks to which they seem so obviously suited. Somehow, a variety ...

    • Hierarchy in Knowledge Representations 

      Doyle, Jon (MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1977-11)
      This paper discusses a number of problems faced in communicating expertise and common sense to a computer, and the approaches taken by several current knowledge representation languages towards solving these problems. The ...

    • Dynamics of a Three Degree of Freedom Kinematic Chain 

      Horn, Berthold K.P. (MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1977-10)
      In order to be able to design a control system for high-speed control of mechanical manipulators, it is necessary to understand properly their dynamics. Here we present an analysis of a detailed model of a three-link device ...
