In this paper, a new master arm was developed as an input device of the remote control system for easy control of the industrial robot arm; it has a structure similar to the robot arm and is easy to wear. For control of the slave arm, related equations were derived about the joints between the master and slave arm; and thereby using them, the master arm control system was developed. Furthermore, a control simulator was developed for the convenient and accurate control of the slave arm. Experiments, about controlling the slave arm in applying the master arm, were performed to validate the developed simulator and the derived related equations.

The simultaneous operation of multiple UAV's makes it possible for us to raise the mission accomplishment and cost efficiency. For this we need an easily scalable control algorithm, and swarm intelligence having the characteristics such as flexibility, robustness, decentralized control and self-organization comes into the spotlight as a practical substitute. In this paper the features of swarm intelligence are described, and various research results are introduced which show that the application of swarm intelligence to the control of multiple UAV's enables the missions of surveillance, path planning, target tracking and attack to be accomplished efficiently by simulations and tests.

본 논문에서는 제어상황에 따라 Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Controller가 선택적으로 rule을 사용하도록 rule 선택 알고리즘을 제안 한다. 그리고 이를 통해 연산 효율성을 높이는 방법에 관해 논한다. Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Controller는 기존의 제어기에 비해 설계하기 쉽고 성능이 더 뛰어나다. 그러나 제어 변수가 많아질수록 rule의 개수가 늘어나 연산량이 증가하게 된다. 연산량이 많아지면 고성능의 컴퓨터에서는 실시간 연산에 문제가 없으나 산업용 micro controller에서는 실시간 연산을 구현하는데 한계가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 Type-1 Fuzzy Logic System의 논리구조에 근거하여 Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Controller의 연산량을 감소시킬 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 제어상황에 따라 필요한 rule들만 선택적으로 제어값 도출을 위한 연산에 관여하도록 한다. Matlab 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안한 알고리즘의 유용성과 연산량을 실험하였다. 실험대상은 2륜 이동로봇으로 하였고 step 응답과 전/후진 시 결과를 관찰하였다. 실험 결과 제안한 알고리즘이 기존의 Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Controller에 비해 제어상황에 따라 필요한 rule들만 선택적으로 사용하는 것을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 연산 효율성이 향상되었다.

This paper presents a new scheme of neural network controller to improve the robustuous of robot manipulator using digital signal processors. Digital signal processors, DSPs, are micro-processors that are particularly developed for fast numerical computations involving sums and products of variables. Digital version of most advanced control algorithms can be defined as sums and products of measured variables, thus it can be programmed and executed through DSPs. In addition, DSPs are as fast in computation as most 32-bit micro-processors and yet at a fraction of their prices. These features make DSPs a viable computational tool in digital implementation of sophisticated controllers. During past decade it was proposed the well-established theorys for the adaptive control of linear systems, but there exists relatively little general theory for the adaptive control of nonlinear systems. Perforating of the proposed controller is illustrated. This paper describes a new approach to the design of adaptive controller and implementation of real-time control for assembling robotic manipulator using digital signal processor. Digital signal processors used in implementing real time adaptive control algorithm are TMS320C50 series made in TI'Co..

In this paper, we proposed the right-angle stereo vision system to measure the object size using a human eyesight-like, and the system is reconstructed with conventional stereo vision system. In this proposed system, the size results of objects are measured very close to the real object size, and we got the ratios 93~103[%] for the real object sizes. Therefore, the suggested right-angle stereo vision system have a high possibilities to be applied to many industrial system parts and to be used for robot system, automatic system, and etc.

The well-used actuators for the attitude control of spacecrafts are thruster, reaction wheel, control moment gyroscope, and magnetic torquer. Among them, the control moment gyroscope(CMG) which generates the torque based on the gyroscopic principle in physics, has an advantage of the high torque output compared to the low power consumption. This paper introduces an outline of CMG hardware technology, its application history in spacecrafts, and their associated hardware characteristics. Moreover, its spin-off cases to the other industrial fields such as ship, robotics, and MEMS including their research trend are provided.

There are many types of seam tracking methods actually used in industrial spot. Lately, Non-contact sensor technics are mostly used because non-contact sensor has more advantage than contact sensor in many parts. This paper also concerned about fiber sensor a kind of non-contact sensor. X-Y robot and fiber sensor scan the seam tracking to be weld. After scanning, X-Y robot moves the first working point of being scanned and welding starts automatically. It makes an experiment on some types of Seam tracking like straight line tracking, leaned line tracking and curved line tracking to confirm how well the fibers sensor tracks the seam pass to be weld. And the seam pass that had been tracked was welded by inverter $CO_2$ voiding machine.

Making the best use of the features of the electro-rheological(ER) valve, a two-port pressure control valve using ER fluids is proposed and manufactured. The ER-Valve characteristics are evaluated by changing the intensity of the electric field and the number of electrode. In addition, the performance of the plate type ER-Valve is investigated by change the particle concentration of the ER fluid. As only with electrical signal change to the ER-Valve in which ER fluid flowing, ER fluid flow is controlled, so development of simple ER-Valves have been tried. The ER-Valves and pressure drop check method are considered to be applied to the fluid power control system. Using the minかnぉd pressure control valve, a one-link manipulator with FHA in robot system is driven. As a result, it is experimentally confirmed that the pressure control valve using ER fluids is applicable to use in driving actuator. If it applies characteristics of the ER fluids, it will be able to apply in the control system fir the ER Valve which occurs from industrial controller(PLC).
