Abstract
This paper is devoted to the problem of self-control of autonomous robot in a complex, unknown environment. In such an environment it is impossible to predict all situations the robot could be faced with. Because of this it is necessary to equip the robot with control procedures that allow it to avoid dangerous scenarios. Mechanisms that serve to avoid threatening events have been worked out during evolution and living organisms are equipped with them. Conditioned anxiety is one of such mechanisms. In this paper the way in which this mechanism can be adapted to control of behaviour of autonomous robot, is presented. The effectiveness of the proposed approach has been verified by using V-REP simulator.
