Mobile robotA mobile robot is an automatic machine that is capable of locomotion. Mobile robotics is usually considered to be a subfield of robotics and information engineering. Mobile robots have the capability to move around in their environment and are not fixed to one physical location. Mobile robots can be "autonomous" (AMR - autonomous mobile robot) which means they are capable of navigating an uncontrolled environment without the need for physical or electro-mechanical guidance devices.
Robot autonomevignette|exemple de robot autonome de type rover Un robot autonome, également appelé simplement autorobot ou autobot, est un robot qui exécute des comportements ou des tâches avec un degré élevé d'autonomie (sans influence extérieure). La robotique autonome est généralement considérée comme un sous-domaine de l'intelligence artificielle, de la robotique et de l'. Les premières versions ont été proposées et démontrées par l'auteur/inventeur David L. Heiserman.
Robot militairethumb|Un THeMIS, robot militaire de fabrication estonienne. Un robot militaire, aussi appelé arme autonome, est un robot, autonome ou contrôlé à distance, conçu pour des applications militaires. Les drones sont une sous-classe des robots militaires. Des systèmes sont déjà actuellement en service dans un certain nombre de forces armées, où ils s'avèrent efficaces. Le drone "Predator", par exemple, est capable de prendre des photographies de surveillance, et même à lancer des missiles air-sol AGM-114N "Hellfire" II ou des GBU-12 "Paveway" II dans le cas du MQ-1 et du MQ-9.

Interface utilisateurL’interface utilisateur est un dispositif matériel ou logiciel qui permet à un usager d'interagir avec un produit informatique. C'est une interface informatique qui coordonne les interactions homme-machine, en permettant à l'usager humain de contrôler le produit et d'échanger des informations avec le produit. Parmi les exemples d’interface utilisateur figurent les aspects interactifs des systèmes d’exploitation informatiques, des logiciels informatiques, des smartphones et, dans le domaine du design industriel, les commandes des opérateurs de machines lourdes et les commandes de processus.
Robot navigationRobot localization denotes the robot's ability to establish its own position and orientation within the frame of reference. Path planning is effectively an extension of localisation, in that it requires the determination of the robot's current position and a position of a goal location, both within the same frame of reference or coordinates. Map building can be in the shape of a metric map or any notation describing locations in the robot frame of reference. For any mobile device, the ability to navigate in its environment is important.
Interaction multimodaleMultimodal interaction provides the user with multiple modes of interacting with a system. A multimodal interface provides several distinct tools for input and output of data. Multimodal human-computer interaction refers to the "interaction with the virtual and physical environment through natural modes of communication", This implies that multimodal interaction enables a more free and natural communication, interfacing users with automated systems in both input and output.
Vehicular automationVehicular automation involves the use of mechatronics, artificial intelligence, and multi-agent systems to assist the operator of a vehicle (car, aircraft, watercraft, or otherwise). These features and the vehicles employing them may be labeled as intelligent or smart. A vehicle using automation for difficult tasks, especially navigation, to ease but not entirely replace human input, may be referred to as semi-autonomous, whereas a vehicle relying solely on automation is called robotic or autonomous.
Mode (user interface)In user interface design, a mode is a distinct setting within a computer program or any physical machine interface, in which the same user input will produce perceived results different from those that it would in other settings. Modal interface components include the Caps lock and Insert keys on the standard computer keyboard, both of which typically put the user's typing into a different mode after being pressed, then return it to the regular mode after being re-pressed. An interface that uses no modes is known as a modeless interface.
User interface designUser interface (UI) design or user interface engineering is the design of user interfaces for machines and software, such as computers, home appliances, mobile devices, and other electronic devices, with the focus on maximizing usability and the user experience. In computer or software design, user interface (UI) design primarily focuses on information architecture. It is the process of building interfaces that clearly communicates to the user what's important. UI design refers to graphical user interfaces and other forms of interface design.
