Designing Intelligent Agents for Effective Collaboration with Human in Complex Environment
Abstract
An intelligent agent is a self-governing system that can take action to accomplish its goals based on how it perceives its surroundings. This paper introduces a newly designed humanoid robot that demonstrates significant advancements in performance, reliability, durability, energy efficiency, and environmental sustainability. The design emphasizes a bio-inspired musculoskeletal system, enabling natural and flexible motion while improving operational lifespan. A self-repair system is integrated to allow the robot to address minor damages autonomously, enhancing its robustness and reducing downtime. The relationship between precise actuator movements, advanced perception techniques ,and optimal sensor selection is analyzed to ensure accurate environmental interactions. A cognitive AI-system is embedded, enabling adaptive learning and improved decision-making in dynamic scenarios. The robot's capabilities are further enhanced by its bio-inspired actuation, which combines efficiency with smooth, natural motion. This work explores the application of humanoid agents in diverse fields, including medical care, industrial production, vocational education and training, public services, and customer relations. The integrated approach outlined in this paper positions humanoid robots as versatile, efficient, and sustainable agents in complex human-centered environments.
