<p>
A term used within the Robotics Operating System (ROS) to refer to a collection of raw sensor data gathered over some period of time. Bags could then later be analysed or replayed in simulation for fault diagnosis or the improvement of navigation algorithms.

n. The result of saving HTML from Microsoft Word or some other program that uses the nonstandard Microsoft variant of Latin-1; the symptom is that various of those nonstandard characters in positions 128-160 show up as questionmarks. The usual culprit is the misnamed smart quotes feature in Microsoft Word. For more details (and a program called demoroniser that cleans up the mess) see http://www.fourmilab.ch/webtools/demoroniser/.

Derived from terminology used in movie making this refers to the replay of robotics sensor data within a simulation environment in order to carry out mapping, learning or tuning of parameters. The robot is re-living its past experience and altering some of its concepts. Also see bag.
