최근 육상자원의 한계로 해양 자원에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 수중에서 자유자재로 운용할 수 있는 수중로봇의 경제적 가치가 부각되고 있으며, 특히 기술적 한계를 극복하기 위해 물고기나 수중생물을 모사한 생체모방형 수중로봇에 대한 연구가 활발해지고 있어 이를 소개하고자 한다.

전력연구원은 원자로 내부에 적용하기 위한 소형경량의 수중로봇을 개발하기 위한 준비작업으로 자이로를 이용한 수중로봇 조향장치를 개발하고 있다 이장치는 자이로 3개를 조합한 모듈을 서보가 회전시켜 일정한 방향으로 서보의 회전속도에 비례하는 회전토크를 발생하도록 고안되었다 발생된 토크는 작용/반작용의 원리에 의해 서보가 부착되어있는 로봇본체에 작용한다. 이장치를 이용하면 수중로봇의 중심에서 Yaw와 Pitch를 제어할 수 있는 토크가 발생하고 좁은 공간에서 신속한 자세변환이 가능하다 본 고에서는 자이로 조향장치의 구조와 이론적 배경 및 시뮬레이션 결과를 소개한다.

We have been developing an underwater robot for harbour construction using a parallel mechanism The robot is attached to the rope of a crane, which curries a large stone into the undersea The robot's yaw and pitch are controlled by hydraulic cylinders but its roll is uncontrollable. We mount propellers in both side of the robot to generate the roll motion This paper studies on the control for the roll motion of a underwater robot. A gyro-sensor is used to measure the angle in a roll motion We develop the dynamic model to describe the robot's roll motion by a second order non-linear system and identify the model parameters by recursive least square and adaptive identifier. PD control, recursive model based control and adaptive model based control are applied with the dynamic model which computes the control input to compensate disturbances. This paper introduces the underwater robot system and presents the simulated and experimental results of the proposed controller.

This paper had implemented the underwater stage through interaction with fish robots and visitors in the background of traditional fairy tales using 3D floating hologram in an aquarium. The recognition of the object position of the spectator and the underwater robot were performed using the color recognition algorithm. Also, the position tracking algorithm was proposed to follow the object of the visitor and the original fairy tale. This experimental system consists of fish robot, camera, KIOSK for underwater robot control and beam project for underwater imaging. This experiment was carried out by the National Busan Science Museum, and it had satisfied the performance of the underwater stage.

A fuzzy logic for collision avoidance of underwater robots is proposed in this paper. The VFF(Virtual Force Field) method, which is widely used in the field of mobile robots, is modified for application to the autonomous navigation of underwater robots. This Modified Virtual Force Field(MVFF) method using the fuzzy logic can be used in either track keeping or obstacle avoidance. Fuzzy logics are devised to handle various situations which can be faced during autonomous navigation of underwater robots. The obstacle avoidance algorithm has the ability to handle multiple static obstacles. Results of simulation show that the proposed method can be efficiently applied to obstacle avoidance of the underwater robots.

Recently, although the need of marine robots being raised in extreme areas, the basis is very deficient. Fortunately, as the robot competition is vitalizing and the need of the robot education is increasing, it is desirable to establish the basis of the R&D and industrialization of marine robots and to train professionals through the development and diffusion of marine robot kits. However, in conventional case, there is no underwater-type autonomous marine robot kit for the marine robot competition, which has the abilities of the underwater locomotion and target detection and avoidance. To solve this problem, a marine robot kit which has the abilities of the underwater locomotion, the waterproof and the weight adjustment, is developed. To verify the performance of the developed kit, test and evaluation such as surge, pitch, yaw, obstacle avoidance is performed. The test and evaluation results show that the possibility of the real applications of the developed kit.

A number of studies related to underwater robots are being conducted to utilize marine resources. However, unlike ordinary drones, underwater robots have a problem that it is not easy to locate because the medium is water, not air. The monitoring and positioning program of underwater robots, an existing study for identifying underwater locations, has difficulty in locating and monitoring in small spaces because it aims to be utilized in large spaces. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a three-dimensional positioning program for continuous monitoring and command delivery in small spaces. The proposed program consists of a multi-dimensional positioning monitoring function and a ability to control the path of travel through a three-dimensional screen so that the depth of the underwater robot can be identified. Through the performance evaluation, a robot underwater could be monitored and verified from various angles with a 3D screen, and an error within the assumed range was verified as the difference between the set path and the actual position is within 6.44 m on average.

본 논문에서는 아두이노와 스마트 폰 어플리케이션을 이용한 수중탐사로봇을 구현하였다. 구현된 시스템은 스마트폰으로 간편하게 조종을 할 수 있으며, 한눈에 알아보기 쉽게 수중의 영상 및 온도와 ph값, 수질 오염도를 체크할 수 있다. 양식업 사업에서 실시간으로 체크해 빠른 대처와 조치를 취할 수 있어 효율적으로 양식업을 관리 할 수 있다는 점에서 기대효과를 볼 수 있다. 또한 해양사고 발생 시 수중탐사로봇이 먼저 투입하여 인명구조를 하는 인력과 제 2의 피해자가 최소화 될 수 있고 더 이상 인명피해가 나지 않도록 안전적인 측면에서도 기대할 수 있다.
