Planning

Planning is the process of deciding on an action in the light of our objective and the responses we receive from our environment.
Avoiding a car accident, finding your way to the bakery, catching a ball - there are a multitude of situations in which humans plan their actions before they act. These decisions, which are easy for humans to make, are more difficult for robots to implement. The aim of this course is to introduce students to this vast chapter.
