This study presents the remote control of a board robot using a Sensing glove based on Bluetooth communication. The board robot is a kind of riding robot controlled by an user. The user wears the proposed remote glove controller, and changes a direction of the robot by different kinds of finger actions. Bluetooth is used for wireless communication between the board robot and its user. CdS cell Sensors and a LED in the glove are used for recognition of a number of finger actions, which are measured as analog signals. The finger actions have five commands ('1'right '2'neutrality '3'left '4'operation '5'stop), which are transmitted from the user to the board robot through Bluetooth communication. Experimental results show that proposed a Sensing glove can effectively control the board robot.

As the importance of software to society has grown, more and more schools worldwide teach coding basics in the classroom. Despite the rapid spread of coding instruction in grade schools, experience in the classroom is certainly limited because there is a gap between the curriculum and the existing computing environment such as the mobile and cloud computing. We propose an approach to fill this gap by using a mobile environment and the robot on the cloud-based platform for effective teaching. In this paper, we propose an architecture called Cloudboard that enables knowledge sharing and collaboration among knowledge providers in the cloud-based robot platforms. We also describe five representative architectural patterns that are referenced and analyzed to design the Cloudboard architecture. Our early experimental results show that the Cloudboard can be effective in the development of collective robotic systems.

This paper aims at developing IT convergence robot education contents using open hardware-based GoGo Board and presenting three cases that were applied into educational settings with elementary and middle school students. Several types of data for their activities were collected: photos, work output, survey data, video data and interview with robot teacher and students. Each student experienced building up a GoGo Bumper Car with touch sensors attached at front and back sides and figuring out the principle of digital board control and operating of electronic devices by sensing. The participants, in the following phases, conducted domino chain-reaction with GoGo Bumper Cars and acquiring GoGo Driving Licence by driving test on three different road maps. Students in a gifted education program creatively implemented their own ideas as part of robotic art. The result of case analysis showed that the proposed project provides students not only intimacy for technology, fun, concentration but her own empowerment for developing ideas and creative implementation.

In this paper, we implement robot which are ability to recognize obstacles and moving automatically to destination. we present two results in this paper; hardware implementation of image processing board and software implementation of visual feedback algorithm for a self-controlled robot. In the first part, the mobile robot depends on commands from a control board which is doing image processing part. We have studied the self controlled mobile robot system equipped with a CCD camera for a long time. This robot system consists of a image processing board implemented with DSPs, a stepping motor, a CCD camera. We will propose an algorithm in which commands are delivered for the robot to move in the planned path. The distance that the robot is supposed to move is calculated on the basis of the absolute coordinate and the coordinate of the target spot. And the image signal acquired by the CCD camera mounted on the robot is captured at every sampling time in order for the robot to automatically avoid the obstacle and finally to reach the destination. The image processing board consists of DSP (TMS320VC33), ADV611, SAA7111, ADV7l76A, CPLD(EPM7256ATC144), and SRAM memories. In the second part, the visual feedback control has two types of vision algorithms: obstacle avoidance and path planning. The first algorithm is cell, part of the image divided by blob analysis. We will do image preprocessing to improve the input image. This image preprocessing consists of filtering, edge detection, NOR converting, and threshold-ing. This major image processing includes labeling, segmentation, and pixel density calculation. In the second algorithm, after an image frame went through preprocessing (edge detection, converting, thresholding), the histogram is measured vertically (the y-axis direction). Then, the binary histogram of the image shows waveforms with only black and white variations. Here we use the fact that since obstacles appear as sectional diagrams as if they were walls, there is no variation in the histogram. The intensities of the line histogram are measured as vertically at intervals of 20 pixels. So, we can find uniform and nonuniform regions of the waveforms and define the period of uniform waveforms as an obstacle region. We can see that the algorithm is very useful for the robot to move avoiding obstacles.

본 논문은 IEEE 1394 통신을 기반으로 하는 센서보드를 개발하고 센서보드의 초음파 센서만을 이용하는 이동 로봇의 지도 생성 및 위치 추정을 위한 과정에서 효과적인 초음파 센서 구성과 그에 따른 주변 환경 인식 방법을 소개한다. 일반적으로 이동 로봇의 주행을 위해서 시각센서, 초음파 센서, 레이저 센서 등과 같은 많은 센서들을 사용한다. 시각 센서나 레이저 센서를 이용하면 정확한 정보를 얻을 수 있으나 가격이 비싸다는 단점이 있다. 초음파 센서는 저렴하고, 데이터 처리와 사용이 쉽지만 반사각 민감성 같은 초음파의 특성상 일반적으로 자애물의 판별 여무에만 사용되는 경우가 많다. 따라서 본 문에서는 다중 초음파 센서만을 이용한 로봇의 위치 인식 문제를 보완하여 주변 환경 인식 방법을 소개한다.
