  RoboCup@Home is an international robotics competition based on domestic tasks
requiring autonomous capabilities pertaining to a large variety of AI
technologies. Research challenges are motivated by these tasks both at the
level of individual technologies and the integration of subsystems into a fully
functional, robustly autonomous system. We describe the progress made by the UT
Austin Villa 2019 RoboCup@Home team which represents a significant step forward
in AI-based HRI due to the breadth of tasks accomplished within a unified
system. Presented are the competition tasks, component technologies they rely
on, our initial approaches both to the components and their integration, and
directions for future research.
