The wikipedia article states that "No robot had a blueprint for constructing a particular structure".
The first published article ( http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/ssr/papers/rss11-petersen.pdf) states that : "A user provides as input a high-level representation, specifying only where blocks should be located in the target structure. A simple offline compiler uses depth- first search to convert this to a “structpath” representation, a directed path in the plane annotated with the height of the stack of blocks at each site in the path"
And then, the pseudo code of the robots :
climb onto structure while on structure do follow structpath if holding block then if structpath specifies block at current site
So the robot has the "structpath", which is a transformed version of the final structure.
How is this not a global vision of the end result? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.55.175.20 ( talk) 16:30, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
