• Authors: Eleonora Iotti, Giuseppe Petrosino, Stefania Monica, Federico Bergenti
• Abstract summary: This paper describes experiments to validate the possibility of programming autonomous robots using an agent-oriented programming language. The agent-oriented programming paradigm is relevant because it offers language-level abstractions to process events and to command actuators. A recent agent-oriented programming language called Jadescript is presented in this paper together with its new features specifically designed to handle events.

• Abstract: This paper describes exploratory experiments to validate the possibility of programming autonomous robots using an agent-oriented programming language. Proper perception of the environment, by means of various types of sensors, and timely reaction to external events, by means of effective actuators, are essential to provide robots with a sufficient level of autonomy. The agent-oriented programming paradigm is relevant with this respect because it offers language-level abstractions to process events and to command actuators. A recent agent-oriented programming language called Jadescript is presented in this paper together with its new features specifically designed to handle events. Exploratory experiments on a simple case-study application are presented to show the validity of the proposed approach and to exemplify the use of the language to program autonomous robots.

  The presented paper investigates recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision Language Models (VLMs) This integration allows robots to understand and execute commands given in natural language and to perceive their environment through visual and/or descriptive inputs. Our paper outlines four LLM-assisted simulated robotic control, which explore (i) low-level control, (ii) the generation of language-based feedback that describes the robot's internal states, (iii) the use of visual information as additional input, and (iv) the use of robot structure information for generating task plans and feedback.
