This paper proposes tracking control method using pseudo-backstepping control for wheeled mobile robots with nonholonomic constraints. First, the pseudo commands for forward linear velocity and angular velocity are chosen based on the kinematics. Then, the actual torque control inputs are designed to make the actual forward linear velocity and angular velocity follow the pseudo commands. Both semi-global practical posture(position and heading direction angle) stabilization and trajectory tracking are achieved for reference trajectories such as straight line and sinusoidal curve. The stability and performance analysed and numerical simulations are performed to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

MSC is being developed to be installed on KOMPSAT(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-II and to provide high resolution multi-spectral. MSC consists of three main subsystems. One is EOS(Electro-Optics Subsystem), another is PMU(Payload Management Unit) and the other is PDTS(Payload Data Transmission Subsystem). There is an SBC(Single Board Computer) in the PMU to control all MSC subsystems. SBC incorporates Intel 80486 as a main processor and VxWorks as a real-time operating system. SBC software consists of four main tasks and several modules to deal with all control information for imaging and all the state of health telemetrv data, and to perform interface with another MSC units. SBC software also has to handle a lot of commands in order for MSC to perform his mission. One mission command consists of a series of related commands, which are In be executed in the designated sequence, with a specified time ...

A new method to govern the navigation of a mobile robot is proposed based on the following two procedures: one is to achieve vision information by using a 2 D-O-F camera as a communicating medium between a man and a mobile robot and the other is to analyze and to behave according to the recognized hand gesture commands. In the previous researches, mobile robots are passively to move through landmarks, beacons, etc. To incorporate various changes of situation, a new control system manages the dynamical navigation of a mobile robot. Moreover, without any generally used expensive equipments or complex algorithms for hand gesture recognition, a reliable hand gesture recognition system is efficiently implemented to convey the human commands to the mobile robot with a few constraints.

An effective visual servo control system for robotic manipulators based on neural networks is proposed. For this control system, firstly, one neural network is used to learn the mapping relationship between the robot's joint space and the video image space. However, in the proposed control scheme, this network is not used in itself, but its first and second derivatives are used to generate servo commands for the robot. Secondly, an adaptive Adaline network is used to identify the dynamics of the robot and also to generate the proper torque commands. Computer simulation has been performed indicating its superior performance. As far as the authors know, this is the first time attempt of the use of neural networks for a visual servo control of robots that compensates for their changing dynamics.

Cerebellar Model Linear Associator Net(CMLAN), a kind of neuro-net based adaptive control function generator, was applied to the problem of direct inverse calibration of three and six d.o.f. POMA 560 robot. Since CMLAN autonomously maps and generalizes a desired system function via learning on the sampled input/output pair nodes, CMLAN allows no knowledge in system modeling and other error sources. The CMLAN based direct inverse calibration avoids the complex procedure of identifying various system parameters such as geometric(kinematic) or nongeometric(dynamic) ones and generates the corresponding desired compensated joint commands directly to each joint for given target commands in the world coordinate. The generated net outputs automatically handles the effect of unknown system parameters and dynamic error sources. On-line sequential learning on the prespecified sampled nodes requires only the measurement of the corresponding tool tip locations for three d.o.f. manipulator but location and orientation for six d.o.f. manipulator. The proposed calibration procedure can be applied to any robot.

This paper deals with the attitude control of an underactuated spacecraft that has fewer than three actuators. Even though such spacecrafts are known as uncontrollable, restricted missions are possible with controlling two-axis attitude angles. A variable speed control moment gyroscope is considered as an actuator. It is a kind of momentum exchange device and it shows highly nonlinear dynamical properties. Speed commands are generated by kinematic equations represented by Euler angles. A control law, that is designed to make a spacecraft follow the speed commands, is derived by the backstepping method. Angular speeds are estimated from the attitude measurements. Several estimation methods have been compared.

We have developed a speaker dependent voice command system(VCS) to control the sunroof in the car using RSC-164 VRP(Voice Recognition Processor). VCS consists of control circuits, microphone, speaker and user switch box. The control circuits include RSC-164, input audio preamplifier, memory devices, and relay circuit for sunroof control. It is designed robustly in various car noisy situations like audio volume, air conditioner, and incoming noise when window or sunroof opened. Each two users can control the car sunroof using seven voice commands on the Super TVS model and five voice commands on the Onyx model. It works well when we drive the car at over 100 km/h with the sunroof opened.

In this paper we implement moving picture transfer system using bluetooth Development Kit (DK). To reduce the size of the image data, we use M-JPEG compression. We use bluetooth Synchronous Connection-Oriented (SCO) link to transfer voice data. Server receive image data from camera and compress the image data in M-JPEG format, and then transmit the image data to client using bluetooth Asynchronous connection-less (ACL) link. Client receive image data from bluetooth ACL link and decode the compressed image and then display the image to screen. Sever and Client can transmit and receive voice data simultaneously using bluetooth SCO link. In this paper bluetooth HCI commands and events generated by host controller to return the results of HCI commands are explained and the flow of bluetooth connection procedure is presented.

The modifiable walking pattern generation (MWPG) algorithm can handle dynamic walking commands by changing the walking period, step length, and direction independently. When an infeasible command is given, the algorithm changes the command to a feasible one. After the feasibility of the navigational command is checked, it is translated into the desired center of mass (CM) state. To achieve the desired CM state, a reference CM trajectory is generated using predefined zero moment point (ZMP) functions. Based on the proposed algorithm, various complex walking patterns were generated, including backward and sideways walking. The effectiveness of the patterns was verified in dynamic simulations using the Webots simulator.

In order to accomplish complex navigational commands, humanoid robot should be able to modify its walking period, step length and direction independently. In this paper, a novel walking pattern generation algorithm is proposed to satisfy these requirements. Modification of the walking pattern can be considered as a transition between two periodic walking patterns, which follows each navigational command. By assuming the robot as a linear inverted pendulum, the equations of motion between ZMP(Zero Moment Point) and CM(Center of Mass) state is easily derived and analyzed. After navigational command is translated into the desired CM state, corresponding CM motion is generated to achieve the desired state by using simple ZMP functions. Moreover, when the command is not feasible, feasible command is alternated by using binary search algorithm. Subsequently, corresponding CM motion is generated. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by computer simulation.
