A graphical programming environment oriented to the reactive paradigm for the multimodal control of an intelligent robot based on Raspberry Pi

Abstract

In the fields of computer science and electronics, resources for artificial intelligence and robotics tend to be aimed at experts, making it challenging for students to enter these fields without specialist assistance. To address this issue, this project proposes a cost-effective and educational development environment for graphical programming utilizing node-based programming and a Raspberry Pi-controlled robot. The software architecture, developed in Python, incorporates graphical resources to enable signal processing, remote connection, and artificial intelligence libraries under the functional programming paradigm. The resulting programming environment is intuitive and user-friendly, offering artificial intelligence capabilities to a multimodal robotic system controlled by Raspberry Pi.
