## AI Embodiment Integration

### 3.1 Overview

Integration with WIA AI Embodiment enables sensor fusion to inform embodied AI decision-making and state estimation.

### 3.2 Data Flow

```typescript
// TypeScript Integration Example
import { SensorFusionClient } from '@wia/sensor-fusion';
import { EmbodimentClient } from '@wia/ai-embodiment';

const fusion = new SensorFusionClient({ apiKey: 'key' });
const embodiment = new EmbodimentClient({ apiKey: 'key' });

// Subscribe to fused state
const stateStream = fusion.fusion.streamState('my_fusion');

stateStream.on('data', async (fusedState) => {
  // Update embodiment state
  await embodiment.state.update({
    pose: fusedState.pose,
    velocity: fusedState.velocity,
    acceleration: fusedState.acceleration,
    timestamp: fusedState.timestamp
  });

  // Get AI decision based on fused perception
  const decision = await embodiment.inference.predict({
    state: fusedState,
    goal: currentGoal
  });

  console.log('AI Decision:', decision);
});
```

### 3.3 Object Detection Integration

```python
from wia_sensor_fusion import SensorFusionClient
from wia_ai_embodiment import EmbodimentClient

fusion = SensorFusionClient(api_key='key')
embodiment = EmbodimentClient(api_key='key')

# Stream fused objects
async for objects in fusion.fusion.stream_objects('my_fusion'):
    # Filter relevant objects
    humans = [obj for obj in objects if obj.class_name == 'person']

    # Update embodiment world model
    await embodiment.world_model.update_objects(humans)

    # Plan path avoiding humans
    path = await embodiment.planner.plan_path(
        start=current_pose,
        goal=target_pose,
        obstacles=humans
    )
```

### 3.4 Uncertainty Propagation

```python
# Propagate sensor fusion uncertainty to AI decision-making
fused_object = {
    'pose': {
        'position': {'x': 2.8, 'y': 0.5, 'z': 0.0},
        'covariance': [0.01, 0.0, ..., 0.001]  # 6x6 covariance
    },
    'confidence': 0.94
}

# AI Embodiment uses uncertainty for risk-aware planning
decision = embodiment.planner.plan_with_uncertainty(
    object_pose=fused_object['pose'],
    confidence=fused_object['confidence'],
    risk_threshold=0.8
)
```

async def visual_servoing():
    while True:
        # Get fused object position from camera + LIDAR
        objects = await fusion.fusion.query_objects(
            config_id='my_fusion',
            class_name='target_object',
            latest=True
        )

        if not objects:
            continue

        target = objects[0]

        # Compute error
        current_pose = await motors.get_end_effector_pose()
        error = compute_error(current_pose, target.pose)

        # Control law (PID)
        velocity_command = pid_controller.compute(error)

        # Send to motor controller

        if ft_data.force.z > CONTACT_FORCE_THRESHOLD:
            # Contact detected, switch to compliance control
            await motors.set_control_mode('impedance')
            await motors.set_impedance(
                stiffness={'x': 1000, 'y': 1000, 'z': 100},  # Low Z stiffness
                damping={'x': 50, 'y': 50, 'z': 10}
            )

        # Use fused force for precise insertion
        insertion_depth = integrate_force(ft_data.force.z)

        if insertion_depth >= TARGET_DEPTH:
            await motors.stop()
            break

        await asyncio.sleep(0.001)  # 1 kHz control
```

    while True:
        # Get fused objects from all sensors
        objects = await fusion.fusion.query_objects(
            config_id='my_fusion',
            latest=True
        )

        # Check proximity to any object
        for obj in objects:
            distance = compute_distance(current_pose, obj.pose)

            if distance < SAFETY_DISTANCE:
                # Emergency stop
                await motors.emergency_stop()
                print(f"Collision avoided with {obj.class_name}")

## Safety and Compliance

### 9.1 Safety Standards

- **ISO 26262**: Automotive functional safety (ASIL-B for Gold, ASIL-D for Platinum)
- **IEC 61508**: Functional safety (SIL 2 for Gold, SIL 3 for Platinum)
- **ISO 13849**: Safety of machinery (PLd for Gold, PLe for Platinum)
- **ISO 21448**: SOTIF (Safety of the Intended Functionality)

### 9.2 Safety Monitoring

```python
class SafetyMonitor:
    def __init__(self):
        self.fusion = SensorFusionClient(api_key='key')
        self.safety_state = 'normal'

    async def monitor(self):
        while True:
            # Check sensor health
            sensors = await self.fusion.sensors.list()
            failed_sensors = [s for s in sensors if s.status != 'active']

            if len(failed_sensors) > REDUNDANCY_THRESHOLD:
                self.safety_state = 'degraded'
                await self.trigger_safe_mode()

            # Check fusion quality
            status = await self.fusion.fusion.get_status('safety_fusion')

            if status.performance.latency_ms > MAX_LATENCY_MS:
                self.safety_state = 'critical'
                await self.emergency_stop()

            await asyncio.sleep(0.01)  # 100 Hz monitoring
```
