	TRN's View from the High Ground: Georgia Tech's Ronald Arkin
		Arkin is Regents' Professor in the College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Director of the school's Mobile Robot Laboratory.
		Arkin: It's quite limited at this time, as real world robots are just beginning to make their appearance in everyday life as they move out of the laboratory.
		Arkin: I guess the same sort of reliability and systems engineering that has been applied to traditional automation such as cars, airplanes, escalators and the like, and major companies that are capable of providing that level of engineering and experience need to get involved.

		But researchers in Georgia Tech's robot program are pioneering efforts to integrate those separate levels of functioning to design behavior-based robotics for both military and private-sector applications.
		Arkin's approach is influenced by psychology and neuroscience.
		"Learning momentum," a technique pioneered by Arkin and his research team, involves teaching a robot that if a behavior is working well, it should continue doing it.

		In fact, robots and space go together so well that some critics have doubted whether manned space exploration is needed at all since we can always send a cheaper, mechanical replacement.
		Arkin told SPACE.com that scientists can always repackage a robot to make it smaller and more resistant to its environs, but they can't repackage humans at all.
		The latest target for space robots is Mars, where two orbiters, a pair of twin rovers and one lander are expected to arrive at the end of this year.

		Ultimately, Williams thinks intelligent robots should use a mix of behavioural-based intelligence and representational thought, a belief shared by Ronald Arkin, Director of the Georgia Institute of Technology's Mobile Robot Laboratory.
		Arkin and his team are working on ways to help robots learn and improve, using both higher-level reasoning and behavioural-based learning.
		The former involves recording the history of the robot, which it can pull up, adapt and use to better its performance.

		While behavior-based robotics is a relatively new field as academic fields go, it is possible to find historical predecessors.
		Ronald Arkin looks all the way back to 1947, when cybernetics used control theory, information science and biology to seek principles common to biological life and machine intelligence.
		It is generally agreed that W. Grey Walter’s Tortoise, a small robot made from vacuum tubes, was the first behavior-based robot.

		"The whole field of biomimetic robots is finally a well-accepted concept," said Arkin, whose lab researches colony-like robots based on bees and ants.
		Basing robots on animals is logical, Hogg added, because of the obvious success the evolution of animals has had with respect to their ambulatory appendages.

		One answer, says Ronald C. Arkin, director of the Mobile Robot Laboratory at the Georgia Institute of Technology, could be advanced sensing technologies that extrapolate hidden depressions from visible terrain or ripples in vegetation.
		Robot contestants will need vision systems that work in darkness, scorching sunlight, and storms, as well as locomotion systems that can speed through different landscapes.
