Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing online robotic motion planning from pre-generated motion plans. A library of pre-generated motion plans for performing a particular task is maintained. Each pre-generated motion plan comprises a plurality of waypoints and one or more actions. One or more present observations of a robot in a workcell are obtained. The one or more observations are classified. A pre-generated candidate motion plan that matches the labels assigned to the present observations of the robot in the workcell is selected from the library of pre-generated motion plans. The pre-generated candidate motion plan is adapted according to the present observations of the robot in the workcell to generate a final motion plan to be executed by the robot.

Offline robot planning with online adaptation

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for rule execution in an online robotics system. One of the systems includes an execution engine subsystem and an execution memory subsystem. The execution engine receives rules having types and subtypes that represent a particular entity in an operating environment of a robot, provides subscription requests to the execution memory subsystem, and receives events emitted by the execution memory subsystem. The an execution memory receives subscription requests from the execution engine subsystem, receives new observations, converts the new observations into fact updates, performs pattern matching with the fact updates against the patterns of the subscription requests, and emits events to the execution engine subsystem for patterns that have been matched by the fact updates.
