Hypopharyngeal cancer have shown poor prognosis though various treatment modalities were developed for several decades. Therefore current trend in managing hypopharyngeal cancer is organ preservation therapy to improve patient's quality of life. Recently, surgery via robotic surgical system in genitourinary surgery improved minimal invasive technique and reduced morbidity dramatically. Hypopharyngeal cancer treatment using Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in treating lesions of hypopharynx could reduce the morbidity and achieve organ preservation.

특정한 물체를 추적하는 방법에는 여러 가지가 있다. 사람의 경우 시각, 청각, 촉각, 미각 등의 여러가지 방법으로 물체를 추적하고 판단할 수 있는데 한 가지 방법 보다는 두 가지, 세 가지 방법을 동시에 사용하는 것이 물체를 추적하고 판단하는데 도움이 된다. 그러나 컴퓨터는 사용할 수 있는 정보가 제한적 이다. 물체를 추적하는데 있어서 영상데이터 만을 사용할 경우 물체가 가까이 있어 화면 전체를 차지할 경우 더 이상의 물체를 판단하기 힘들어 진다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 거리 센서를 부착함으로서 이동 로봇이 물체에 일정거리를 유지하면서 이동을 할 수 있도록 구현하였다.

Cracks may occur in reinforced concrete (RC) structures due to various physical and chemical factors, and the growth of cracks causes deterioration of the structure's performance. It is important to prevent the expansion of cracks through periodic diagnosis of cracks in structures. In order to enable free crack exploration even in a narrow space, a construction robot using a Mecanum wheel that can move up, down, left and right and rotate in place was designed. High-quality crack images were periodically collected through the camera, and the image fragments stored during the exploration were combined into a single photo after the exploration was completed. The robot detected cracks with a width of 0.2 mm or more on the concrete probe surface with an accuracy of about 90% or more.

매니퓰레이션 기술 중에서 경로 계획은 중요한 문제 중의 하나이다. RRT는 경로 계획 알고리즘으로 최근에 제안되었다. RRT는 기존 알고리즘보다 빠르게 장애물을 회피하여 경로를 계획할 수 있다. 기존의 경로 계획 알고리즘은 그 상황에 따라 반복적으로 경로 계획을 하였다. 이러한 점을 개선하기위해 RRT와 인간의 소뇌구조를 모방한 CMAC을 결합한 CMACRRT를 제안한다. CMAC은 RRT가 만들어낸 경로와 그 상황을 기억하여 유사한 상황에서 경로를 다시 사용할 수 있게 해준다. 이렇게해서서 CMAC을 통해 학습된 상황에서 RRT를 사용하지 않고 기존의 경로를 사용할 수 있게 된다.

Tosolve complex and diverse social problems and ensure the quality of life of individuals, social robots that can interact with humans are attracting attention. In the past, robots were recognized as beings that provide labor force as they put into industrial sites on behalf of humans. However, the concept of today's robot has been extended to social robots that coexist with humans and enable social interaction with the advent of Smart technology, which is considered an important driver in most industries. Specifically, there are service robots that respond to customers, the robots that have the purpose of edutainment, and the emotionalrobots that can interact with humans intimately. However, popularization of robots is not felt despite the current information environment in the modern ICT service environment and the 4th industrial revolution. Considering social interaction with users which is an important function of social robots, not only the technology of the robots but also other factors should be considered. The design elements of the robot are more important than other factors tomake consumers purchase essentially a social robot. In fact, existing studies on social robots are at the level of proposing "robot development methodology" or testing the effects provided by social robots to users in pieces. On the other hand, consumer emotions felt from the robot's appearance has an important influence in the process of forming user's perception, reasoning, evaluation and expectation. Furthermore, it can affect attitude toward robots and good feeling and performance reasoning, etc. Therefore, this study aims to verify the effect of appearance of social robot and consumer emotions on consumer's attitude toward social robot. At this time, a social robot design evaluation model is constructed by combining heterogeneous data from different sources. Specifically, the three quantitative indicator data for the appearance of social robots from the ABOT Database is included in the model. The consumer emotions of social robot design has been collected through (1) the existing design evaluation literature and (2) online buzzsuch as product reviews and blogs, (3) qualitative interviews for social robot design. Later, we collected the score of consumer emotions and attitudes toward various social robots through a large-scale consumer survey. First, we have derived the six major dimensions of consumer emotions for 23 pieces of detailed emotions through dimension reduction methodology. Then, statistical analysis was performed to verify the effect of derived consumer emotionson attitude toward social robots. Finally, the moderated regression analysis was performed to verify the effect of quantitatively collected indicators of social robot appearance on the relationship between consumer emotions and attitudes toward social robots. Interestingly, several significant moderation effects were identified, these effects are visualized with two-way interaction effect to interpret them from multidisciplinary perspectives. This study has theoretical contributions from the perspective of empirically verifying all stages from technical properties to consumer's emotion and attitudes toward social robots by linking the data from heterogeneous sources. It has practical significance that the result helps to develop the design guidelines based on consumer emotions in the design stage of social robot development.

In this paper, fault-tolerant gait planning of a hexapod robot for walking over irregular terrain is presented. The failure concerned in this paper is a locked joint failure for which a joint in a leg cannot move and is locked in place. Based on the previously proposed fault-tolerant tripod gait for walking over even terrain, fault-tolerant follow-the-leader(FTL) gaits are proposed for a hexapod robot with a failed leg to be able to walk over two-dimensional rough terrain, maintaining static stability and fault tolerance. The proposed FTL gait can have maximum stride length for a given foot position of a failed leg, and yields better ditch crossing ability than the previously developed gaits. The applicability of the proposed FTL gait is verified by using computer graphics simulations.
