  Fuzzy Control of Mobile Robots
A fuzzy control function may be defined by using fuzzy sets as adjectives in a qualitative rule base.
Fuzzy logic is used to keep the robot on the path, except when the danger of collision arises.
When an obstacle is detected (in simulation) by one of the robot's proximity sensors, the fuzzy controller increases the speed of the wheel on that side to turn away from it.

 Fuzzy Logic
Fuzzy logic is an alternative to Boolean logic, allowing a much broader response instead of just true and false, though they both use the eight basic logic gates.
Fuzzy logic allows a response within the range of 0.0 to 1.0 where 0.0 is absolute falsity and 1.0 is absolute truth.
Zadeh also formulated the concept of fuzzy control that allows a small set of intuitive rules to be used in order to control the operation of electronic devices such as home appliances.

 The Semiotics of Control Rules: 'What Do You Mean by Positive Small?'
Control systems are designed to automatically manage the behavior of a dynamic physical process by comparing the state of the controlled system (the plant) to some ideal value (the control objective or set point) and applying some control signal.
A control surface is a surface plot which portrays the relation between controller inputs and outputs; for each combination of input values, a point on the surface gives the corresponding control output value.
Fuzzy sets and their associated representation of linguistic terms have been used to determine the connection patterns, the processing units, and the connection weights of neural nets.

 CONSTRUCTING FUZZY
Most importantly, fuzzy theory was adopted wholeheartedly by the Japanese, and their advances in the field of fuzzy control have won the attention of engineers throughout the world.
Fuzzy theory gives us a whole new approach to the mathematics of thinking; it is a change of paradigm for Western world scientists and mathematicians, and like all changes of paradigm has been initially strenuously resisted, except in the Far East, where two-valued Aristotelian logic has not been too deeply ingrained.
In fuzzy sets like speed and color it is very likely that two or more descriptors might have non-zero confidences at the same time; that is fine, since we are seldom certain that one descriptor is entirely right and the others are entirely wrong.

 Language Log: When "fuzzy" means "smoothed piecewise linear"
Fuzzy logic recognizes more than simple true and false values; it sees degrees of truthfulness, for example, in the statement, "There is a 25 percent chance of rain today." Fuzzy logic deals with complex real systems.
However, the transition from one control regime to another may not be a smooth one, and a system might even hover at the boundary for a while, switching back and forth.
In the case of the four stages of rice cooking, I suppose that a fuzzy logic controller is able to treat the process as a series of fuzzy or gradient transitions rather than a series of hard, stepwise transitions.

 Fuzzy Logic (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Fuzzy logic in the broad sense (older, better known, heavily applied but not asking deep logical questions) serves mainly as apparatus for fuzzy control, analysis of vagueness in natural language and several other application domains.
Fuzzy logic in the narrow sense is symbolic logic with a comparative notion of truth developed fully in the spirit of classical logic (syntax, semantics, axiomatization, truth-preserving deduction, completeness, etc.; both propositional and predicate logic).
This fuzzy logic is a relatively young discipline, both serving as a foundation for the fuzzy logic in a broad sense and of independent logical interest, since it turns out that strictly logical investigation of this kind of logical calculi can go rather far.

 Notes On Fuzzy Control
The concept of fuzzy control stemmed from the work of Lotfi Zadeh,a professor at the University of California at Berkley.
A fuzzy control system is a real-time expert system, implementing a part of a human operator or process engineers expertise, which does not lend itself to being easily expressed in PID.
There is a variety of basic, conventional control loops, but a human operator is needed during the starting or closing phase, for parametizing the controllers, or for switching between different control modules.

 Fuzzy logic tutorial.
Fuzzy logic is used in system control and analysis design, because it shortens the time for engineering development and sometimes, in the case of highly complex systems, is the only way to solve the problem.
Fuzzy logic control and analysis systems may be electro-mechanical in nature, or concerned only with data, for example economic data, in all cases guided by "If-Then rules" stated in human language.
It is based on fuzzy perceptions, fuzzy truths, fuzzy inferences, etc., all resulting in an averaged, summarized, normalized output, which is given by the human a precise number or decision value which he or she verbalizes, writes down or acts on.

 PAControl.com - Fuzzy Logic
Fuzzy Logic is successfully used in today's process control systems.
Fuzzy logic addresses such applications perfectly as it resembles human decision making with an ability to generate precise solutions from uncertain or approximate information.
The notion central to fuzzy systems is that truth values (in fuzzy logic) or membership values (in fuzzy sets) are indicated by a value on the range 0 to 1, with 0 representing absolute Falseness and 1 representing absolute Truth.

 Fuzzy Multidimensional Logic
Fuzziness extends the concepts of probability to encompass partial events, each of which can now occur with a strength between 0 and 1, for example we now allow for the probability of a half (eaten) apple (FTV 0.5).
In fuzzy logic we rate each variable as a fuzzy truth value, giving 1 to the best option, 0 to the worst and proportionate in between (we could alternatively rate them with respect to a theoretical or practical minimum and maximum for the variable in question).
Fuzzy logic is just one of a number of non-standard logics that currently exist and which are used to cope with situations excluded from classical bivalent logic.

 Fuzzy Control Language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fuzzy Control Language, or FCL, is a language for implementing fuzzy logic, especially fuzzy control.
FCL allows the programmer to specify fuzzy sets, which are lists of points on a graph, as well as IF-THEN rules, for example:
FCL is not an entirely complete fuzzy language, for instance, it does not support "hedges", which are adverbs that modify the set.

 Fuzzy Application Library/Technical Applications/Industrial Automation
Tuning the fudge factors of a controller derived from a mathematical model is "fishing in the dark", because optimizing the system at one operating point using global factors usually degrades the performance at other operating points.
Because fuzzy logic is a technology that facilitates control system design based directly on such human experiences, it has been used for crane automation for almost a decade.

 Fuzzy Logic Control in Autonomous Robotics:
Fuzzification is the process by which system inputs are evaluated to determine the degree at which they belong to a particular fuzzy set, on a scale from 00 to FF in hexadecimal [5].
The final step in the Fuzzy Logic calculation is defuzzification, when the raw fuzzy outputs are evaluated to create a composite system output.
To test if Fuzzy Logic is a superior solution to the problems of autonomous robotic control, this project involved creating two control systems.

 [No title]
Fuzzy Logic is a paradigm for an alternative design methodology which can be applied in developing both linear and non-linear systems for embedded control.
The second step is to directly design the control algorithm using fuzzy rules, which describe the principles of the controller's regulation in terms of the relationship between its inputs and outputs.
Fuzzy logic provides an alternative solution to non-linear control because it is closer to the real world.

FFLL is not fully compliant with the FCL standards set forth in IEC 61131-7.
FFLL assumes the term_name part of each rule is specified in the order that the variables are declared so it "knows" which variable_name the term_name belongs to.
Note: Regardless if the strict FCL syntax or the FFLL shorthand is used, FFLL assumes the variables are "AND"ed in the order they are declared.

The point in using fuzzy logic is to try and measure the quality of attributes against rules, so some object may be high, but by comparing with another object it may be higher or lower.
If most (and preferably all) possible cases are covered in the Rule Set, a Fuzzy Logic Controller will be able to calculate what to do for any pair of Object1 and Object2 attributes, in a far more refined way any crisp 'boolean' controller would do.
