In this paper, a human coexistence-type companion robot that can communicate with people in daily life and alleviate the gap in care personnel was studied. Based on the voice recognition module, servo motor, and Arduino board, a companion robot equipped with a robot arm control function using voice recognition, a position movement function using RC cars, and a voice recognition function was tested and manufactured. As a result of the experiment, the speech recognition experiment according to distance showed the optimal recognition rate at a distance of 5 to 30 cm, and the speech recognition experiment according to gender showed a higher recognition rate in the first tone, monotonous tone. Through the evaluation results of these motion experiments, it was confirmed that a companion robot could be made.

In this paper, We present a direction indicator algorithm for a mobile robot which uses VFF and neural networks. The structure of this neural network navigation system is composed of sensor system, backpropagation learning controllers for adjusting weight and the motion control system for real-time execution. The experimental results show that the direction indicator system operates properlv and strongly at any circumstance

This paper addresses a new algorithm for a stereo visual odometry to measure the ego-motion of a vehicle. The new algorithm introduces an inlier grouping method based on Delaunay triangulation and vanishing point computation. Most visual odometry algorithms rely on RANSAC in choosing inliers. Those algorithms fluctuate largely in processing time between images and have different accuracy depending on the iteration number and the level of outliers. On the other hand, the new approach reduces the fluctuation in the processing time while providing accuracy corresponding to the RANSAC-based approaches.

The strategy of open architecture control system intends to integrate manufacturing components on a single platform, so that a particular component can be easily added and/or replaced. Therefore, the control scheme is neither hardware dependent nor software dependent. In this paper a modular and object oriented approach for the open architecture structure of control systems is invesigated. A standard reference model for genetic manufacturer system, which consists of three modules; hardware module, operating system module, and application software module, is first proposed. Then a standard reference model for open architecture robot control system is suggested.

Motion controllers are essential components for operating industrial equipments. Compared with general industrial controllers, motion controllers allow motion control requiring greater speed and precision. This paper presents a method for controlling multi-axes motors via industrial networks. To achieve a line or arc interpolation, the master system delivers instructions to slave systems connected to the network. The network instruction transmitted from the master controller is re-interpolated by the individual slaves through sub-interpolators. The re-interpolated feedrate information is transmitted to the motion control loop in which the current position and the reference position are then calculated. In this way, the interpolation driving between control units is achieved via industrial networks.

Motion estimation is crucial in a remote control for its convenience or accuracy. Time delays, however, can occur in the problem because data communication is required through a network. In this paper, state estimation problem with uncertain time delayed measurements is addressed. In dynamic system with noise, after taking measurements, it often requires some time until that is available in the filter algorithm. Standard filters not considering this time delays cannot be used since the current measurement is related with a past state. These delayed measurements are solved with augmented extended Kalman filter, and the uncertainty of delayed time is also resolved based on an explicit formulation. The proposed method is analyzed and verified by simulations.

In this paper, a new method to recognize various motions of fighting with an aid of HMM is proposed. There are four kinds of fighting motion such as hook, jab, uppercut, and straight as the fighting motion. The motion graph is generalized to define each motion in motion data and the new 3D-chain code is used to convert motion data to motion graphs. The recognition experiment has been performed with HMM algorithm on motion graphs. The motion data is captured by a motion capture system developed in this study and by five actors. Experimental results are given with relatively high recognition rate of at least 85%.

We developed a motion capture system to get angle data of human joints in the walking mode. The motion capture system is a pair of leg-shape device, which is composed of three links with ankle, knee and pelvis joints. The sensors for measurement of the joint angle are potentiometers. We used an A/D converter to get digital data from joint angles, and which are used to simulate and coordinate the biped-walking robot developed in our laboratory. To simulate and analyze walking motion, animation based on three-dimension motion is performed using the open inventor software.

We filterd the data using the Butterworth 4th order digital filter, and simulated walking motion based on the data using the Matlab.

Regarding efficient development of computer graphic animations, lots of techniques for editing or transforming existing motion data have been developed. Basically, the motion transformation techniques follow optimization process. To make the animation be natural, almost all the techniques utilize kinematics and dynamics in constructing constraints for the optimization. Since the kinematic and dynamic structures of virtual characters to be animated are very complex, the most time-consuming part is known to the optimization process. In order to suggest some guide lines to engineers involved in the motion transformation, in this paper, we analyze the computational complexities for typical motion transformation in quantitative manner as well as the possibility for parallel computation.
