Activity Theory Based Model for Robotics Tasks Learning and Functional Reflection

Based on the Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT), the paper presents tasks learning robotics model. The model focuses on loop based learning, the abstract activity structure, and contradictions based functional learning through meaning emergence. Furthermore, the model introduces the "intellectual emotion" to anchor the components of learned tasks. Moreover, by proposing a preliminary experiment, the model had been discussed regarding specific robotics abilities such as functional perception and meaning emergence, abstraction and generalization, personification and interaction, including future work.
