Abstract
CLIPS is a rule-based programming language for building knowledge-driven applications, well suited for the complex task of coordinating autonomous robots. Inspired by the CLIPS-Executive originally developed for the lesser known Fawkes robotics framework, we present an Integration of CLIPS into the ROS ecosystem. Additionally, we show the flexibility of CLIPS by describing a PDDL-based planning framework integration.
