4족 보행 로봇을 투입하기 위해서는 로봇을 운반할 수 있는 차량이 필요하며 특히 본 연구에서는 군용 작전 지휘 차량을 벤치 마킹하여 화재 진압용 TCMV(Tactical Command Monitoring Vehicle)를 개발하고자 하였다. TCMV를 통해 4족보행 로봇이 화재 현장에 진압할 수 있도록 시나리오를 개발하고 있으며, 아울러 TCMV의 요구사양을 정의 하기 위하여 소방관을 중심으로 의견을 수렴하여 화재 진압의 전략을 개발하고 있다. 추후 TCMV에 적합한 차량과 각종 모니터링 시스템을 구축해 4족 보행 로봇의 화재 진압 기능과 구조 기능을 극대화 하며 새로운 화재 진압 전술이 될 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposed a distributed web environment for developing robot services using a 4-legged robot and MSRS. The proposed development environment of the robot services enabled a high-level complicated robot application to operate in a distributed web environment by implementing robot functions as services which can be run on network nodes using Microsoft MSRS. The environment has been also implemented using a 4-legged robot, Genibo as a robot platform. In experiment, we showed the developed robot services are enable to be executed and configured dynamically and support a remote monitoring in a distributed web environment. Finally the feasibility and the effectiveness of the proposed environment has been verified by creating a robot application using the developed robot services in Visual Program Language which helps student to create a complicated robot application system easily.

Biped walking is the main feature of a humanoid robot. In a biped walking robot, there are many actuators to be controlled and many sensors to be interfaced. In this paper, we propose a DSP-based controller for a miniature biped walking robot with 21 RC servo motors. The proposed controller has a hierarchical structure; a host PC, a DSP-based main controller, and an auxiliary controller with an FPGA chip. The host PC generates and transmits the robot walking data for given walking parameters such as stride, walking period, etc. The main controller implemented with a TMS320LF2407A controls 21 RC servo motors via the auxiliary controller. We also perform some experiments for balancing motion and walking on a slope terrain with interfacing a 2-axis acceleration sensor and a TMS320LF2407A.

Quadruped walking robot requires dynamic control to keep its stability in high speed walking. To keep its walking stability by control of only legs' Joint angle lowers energy efficiency. It is known that an animal or a human use the moving of the mass center of one's upper body to keep the stability. We have developed a quadruped walking robot with weight balancing oscillator that have high energy efficiency. In this study, walking tests are performed for the robot to verify the validity of the weight balancing oscillator.

Quadruped robot is very useful mechanism for a various area. Recently, home entertainment and military robots adapted quadruped platform and useful function have been introduced. Our goal is the development of quadruped robot locomotion for any type of ground included to sloping one and irregular terrain. This paper, as a first step, deals with design and construction of quadruped robot walking on the flat ground. The most important factor of quadruped robot is stability of locomotion. At first, we introduce the developed quadruped robot based on dynamic simulation and experimental study of general gait algorithm. Finally, propose unique locomotion proper to our mechanism. Future work of this study is the performance test and analysis on the ground of various conditions and proposes the improved mechanism and gait algorithm.

Inadequate footholds selection may result in deadlock state where the walking vehicle can not anymore to the desired direction. This paper concerns about the footholds selection for quadruped v, vehicle to walk with the leg lifting sequence of crawl gait which is desired for straight motion. supporting states for lifting a leg are defined and the proper supporting condition for quadruped c: also proposed. When selecting a footholds of swing leg within the proposed footholds searching are; supporting states after the swing legs are placed, satisfy the proper supporting condition. So it can I for quadruped to execute continuous walking with the lifting sequence of crawl gait.

Measured sensor datum from a quadruped robotics is commonly used for recognizing physical environment information which controls the posture of robotics. We can advance the ambulation with this sensed information and need to synthesize various sensors for obtaining accurate data, but most of these sensors are expensive and require excessive load for the operation. Those defects can be serious problem when it comes to the prototype's practicality and mass production, and maintenance of the system. This paper suggests virtual sensor technology for avoiding previous defects and presents ways to apply a theory to a walking robotics through virtual sensor information which is trained with several kinds of actual sensor information from the prototype system; the general algorithm is initially based on the neural network theory of back propagation. In specific, we verified a possibility of replacing the virtual sensor with the actual one through a reaction force measurement experiment.

There are many types of walking robots in the world. For dynamic walking of the robots it is necessary to keep its dynamic stability. The dynamic stability is influenced by the position of ZMP (zero moment point). In this paper we study the control of the ZMP position of walking robot. For experiment we developed a quadruped robot and analyzed the dynamic stability of the robot. Developed robot has 2 joints at each leg and WBO (weight balancing oscillator) on the body of the robot. The WBO is designed to move linearly from side to side when the robot walks dynamically. Walking test was performed to verify the validity of the proposed methods. Especially we showed that the dynamic stability of the robot can be improved without sacrifice of the walking speed by control the WBO.
