This paper presents experimental studies on controlling one-wheel robot, GYROBO. The previous one has the problem of falling down because the inside gimbal leans against one direction to make it balancing. This structural problem has been solved by redesigning the system. Gains obtained through experimental tasks are used as a gain scheduling method so that GYROBO is more stabilized. A line trajectory following control task is performed to test the driving control as well.

Samsung Thales has developed a small-sized autonomous underwater vehicle "BOTO" verified by a mathematical model simulation. The hydrodynamic coefficients and drag force were experimented at circulating water channel for validating cruising performance of the AUV. Based on the mathematical model, we simulated turning radius and way-point tracking on horizontal plane using way-point tracking algorithm. In this paper we introduce the vehicle system and the sea trial test results will be shown.

This paper is proposed that roadway recognition performance improvement for autonomous vehicle using magnetic markers that are embedded along the road center and the sensors mounted on a vehicle, and which changing of magnetic field that is measured along with vehicle driving. For Retrenchment of equipment cost, interval of markers is more expensive than existing method. In order to this, This paper is proposed that interval of markers is founded using magnetic field analysis, and which arrangement method of six magnetic sensors and control method of neural network. This paper is carried out magnetic field analysis, the acquiring of the training patterns, the training of the neural network and composition of steering control, and is verified that roadway recognition performance can improve using computer simulation with proposed methods.

Real-time mobile robot controllers usually have been designed focused on control theory without paying attention to the importance of system integration. This paper demonstrates that autonomous mobile robots require a real-time controller with a wide range of capabilities in addition to control theory. An architectural frame work supporting these capabilities has been designed in actual hardware environments. Individual modules such as a path planner, a path tracking controller, position estimators, wheel controllers and other cruical elements have been successfully integrated into the control system using this frame work. The overall performance of the system was investigated via a series of tracking experiments with a prototype mobile robot named LCAR deveoped in the laboratory. The context of the research involves the architecture, its implementation and experimental results.

The work presented in this paper deals with a navigation problem for a multiple mobile robots in unknown dynamic environments. The environments are completely unknown to the robots; thus, proximity sensors installed on the robots' bodies must be used to detect information about the surroundings. In order to guide the robots along collision-free paths to reach their goal positions, a navigation method based on a combination of primary strategies has been developed. Most of these strategies are achieved by means of fuzzy logic controllers, and are uniformly applied in every robot. In order to improve the performance of the proposed fuzzy logic, the genetic algorithms were used to evolve the membership functions and rules set of the fuzzy controller. The simulation experiments verified that the proposed method effectively addresses the navigation problem.

This paper presents an implementation of a smooth path planning method considering physical limits on a real time operating system for a two-wheel mobile robot. A Bezier curve is utilized to make a smooth path considering a robot's position and direction angle through the defined path. A convolution operator is used to generate the center velocity trajectory to travel the distance of the planned path while satisfying the physical limits. The joint space velocity is computed to drive the two-wheel mobile robot from the center velocity. Trajectory planning, velocity command according to the planned trajectory, and monitoring of encoder data are implemented with a multi-tasking system. And the synchronization of tasks is performed with a real-time mechanism of Event Flag. A real time system with multi-tasks is implemented and the result is compared with a non-real-time system in terms of path tracking to the designed path. The result shows the usefulness of a real-time multi-tasking system to the control system which requires real-time features.

This paper proposes an algorithm for correcting indirect situations resulting from the wheelchair moving the stairs with wheel-type caterpillar and seat position variable. For analyzing the Yawing movement model, the change of Yaw value was estimated using Roll, Pitch, and Yaw in the driving environment, and it was used as a control variable and the information of the wheel drive controller. The verification confirmed the correction of about 10° of Yawing movement within about 7 seconds. It was confirmed that the angular velocity was reduced by 47.5% in seat position change.
