RHINO was the University of Bonn's entry in the 1994 AAAI Robot
Competition and Exhibition. RHINO is a mobile robot designed for
indoor navigation and manipulation tasks. The general scientific goal
of the RHINO project is the development and the analysis of autonomous
and complex learning systems. This paper briefly describes the major
components of the RHINO control software as they were exhibited at
the competition. It also sketches the basic philosophy of the RHINO
architecture and discusses some of the lessons that we learned during
the competition.
