Abstract
An action for execution by a robotic device may be selected. A robotic controller may determine that two or more actions are to be executed based on analysis of sensory and/or training input. The actions may comprise target approach and/or obstacle avoidance. Execution of individual actions may be based on a control signal and a separate activation signal being generated by the controller. Control signal execution may be inhibited by the controller relay block. Multiple activation signals may compete with one another in winner-take-all action selection network to produce selection signal. The selection signal may temporarily pause inhibition of a respective portion of the relay block that is associated with the winning activation signal channel. A disinhibited portion of the relay block may provide the respective control signal for execution by a controllable element. Arbitration between individual actions may be performed based on evaluation of activation signals.
