Abstract:
>
> Review of early developments in manipulation at the AI laboratory.
> Hand-eye coordination as motivational force.
> Later compartmentalization of manipulation, locomotion and machine vision.
> Influence on design of limitations of kinematic solution methods
> and influence on design of growing understanding of recursive dynamics.
> Early intuitions about locomotion beyond gait analysis,
> and ... Sir James Lighthill wins once more!
