Observer Construction

Manipulation actions can be modeled efficiently within a discrete event dynamic system framework. We use the DEDS model to preserve and make use of information we know about the way in which each manipulation task should be performed. Each state in the automaton would represent a symbolic description of a stage in the manipulation process. In order to know the current state of the manipulation process we need to observe the sequence of events occurring in the system and make decisions regarding the state of the automaton. The goal will be to make the system a strongly output stabilizable one and/or construct an observer to satisfy specific task-oriented visual requirements.
