  • Abstract
    A geometric engine called ROBMOD is described that has been designed specifically for intelligent robotics applications. ROBMOD is usable both as a geometric modelling system, based on the constructive solid geometry paradigm, and as a geometry engine that can be interrogated by programs that are reasoning about space. ROBMOD is thus able to reduce the geometric sophistication required in such spatial reasoning programs
