A very good practical guide to behavior-based robotics. Nothing ground-breaking or new.
Unless, like me, you don't know this stuff!Mr. Jones presents a remarkably clear explanation of behavior-based approaches and includes some nice examples, even some code snippets.
What this book will do is keep you from making the mistakes you would tend to make if you were doing this on your own. It offers a short cut to a successfully behaving robot.

I'm sure to reach into it time and time again during my development work. By the time I retire this to the bookshelf for good it will be well worn and much appreciated.
. Teaches the concepts of behavior-based programming through text, programming examples, and a unique online simulator robot. Explains how to design new behaviors by manipulating old ones and adjusting programming. Does not assume reader familiarity with robotics or programming languages. Includes a section on designing your own behavior-based system from scratch.; January 2004.
