Robotic paradigm

In robotics, a robotic paradigm is a mental model of how a robot operates.

A robotic paradigm can be described by the relationship between the three basic elements of robotics: Sensing, Planning, and Acting.

It can also be described by how sensory data is processed and distributed through the system, and where decisions are made.
