Proceed to Programming Component 

This component has a few different aspects:

-          Analyzing human movement to inform the programmers how to get the robot to form image schematic structures. Assigning meaning to the environment based on how the body can manipulate objects.

-          Philosophical components of self, time, logic structure, social interaction

 

1)      Yardena Daon: Movement Specialist

a.     Linguistic analysis of prepositions and verbs

b.     Deciding which movements corresponds to what preposition

2)     Huston Hoburg: Movement Analysis

a.     Analyzing Yardena’s movement in a systematic way

3)      Nick Davis Image Schema implementation

a.     Read up on all of Paul R. Cohen’s research about  Perceptual Symbols and Image Schema language in robots

b.     Aid in the language analysis  and stemmatization process of Yardena and Huston

c.     Think about extracting sensory data in order to form schemas for action and experiences in general. 

4)      Austin Bishop: Philosophical self related things

a.     Using Gödel’s number to implement a system of logic

b.     Critically analyzing David Chalmer’s computational arguments

c.     Provide a medium for Programmer-Theoretical interaction because he has experience with programming and can think and speak in programming languages

5)      Alana Edwards: Predicting Social behavior

a.     Theorizing about what happens when the robot is interacting with other entities and predicting behaviors based on this observation.
