 abstract = {The newly established cluster of excellence {COTESYS} investigates
	the realization of cognitive capabilities such as perception, learning,
	reasoning, planning, and execution for technical systems including
	humanoid robots, flexible manufacturing systems, and autonomous vehicles.
	In this paper we describe cognitive technical systems using a sensor-equipped
	kitchen with a robotic assistant as an {example.We} will particularly
	consider the role of Artificial Intelligence in the research enterprise.
	Key research foci of Artificial Intelligence research in {COTESYS}
	include (*) symbolic representations grounded in perception and action,
	(*) first-order probabilistic representations of actions, objects,
	and situations, (*) reasoning about objects and situations in the
	context of everyday manipulation tasks, and (*) the representation
	and revision of robot plans for everyday activity.},
