This paper introduces a development of an internet based robot on the view of product development for hardware and software convergences. The robot can report moving images of remote places and navigate there autonomously. In addition it can be controlled by remote users through wireless internet. Even the control program for the robot can be updated by the remote users during the regular operation mode. This paper provides a consistent product data model and generic product development processes that can support the development of the robot, a convergence of various hardware and software parts. It also includes discussions and experiences about the development of the convergence product.

We analysed a hardware design issues, which is strong, compact and efficient. Due to its low area constraints, primitive based on hardware is especially suited for RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) devices. primitive is based on the classical DES (Data Encryption Standard) design. This approach makes it possible to considerably decrease chip size requirements.

At the present time, multimedia chip, internet application, and network equipment is designed by using ARM core. Because it has a good debugging, software compiler and needed low power. We must process a data coding to send a multimedia data by real time. So need to connect software and hardware algorithm. In this research, We design interface for ARM9/AMBA based board using VHDL for these function implementation. The board is used the ARM company´s ARM940T for software function implementation and Xilinx company´s Virtex E2000 for hardware function algorithm. The various hardware algorithm (ME,ME,DCT) block for performance can be implemented on this system.

Various research groups proposed various architecture of hardware VPN for the high performance VPN system. However, the VPN based on hardware researcher are focused only on the encryption acceleration. Soft based VPN is only useful when the network connection is slow. We have to consider the hardware performance (encryption/decryption processing capability, packet processing, architecture method) to implement hardware based VPN. In this paper, we have analysed architecture of hardware, consideration and problems for high-speed VPN system, From the result, we can choose the proper design guideline.

This paper describes the development of hardware simulator for the operation analysis of DC microgrid, which has a wind power, solar power and fuel cell as a distributed generation, and a supercapacitor and battery as an energy storage. A detailed simulation model for the DC microgrid was developed for operation analysis. Based on simulation results a hardware simulator was built in the lab for the purpose of operation analysis. The developed hardware simulator can be utilized to evaluate with practical manner the performance of actual microgrid in the field.

The verification of software part and HW/SW interface suffer from the absence of the hardware platform at the end of partitioning and coding phase in design cycle. In this paper we present the design of easy verification for hardware design. Hardware and software engineer can verify their software program and hardware design for a chip that is emulated in proposed verification environment. Besides, designer can easily design the DEMO system.

In this paper, we implemented a high-speed signal processing hardware system for Color Line Scan Camera using FPGA and Nor-Flash. The existing hardware system mainly processed by high-speed DSP based on software and it was a method of detecting defects mainly by RGB individual logic, however we suggested defect detection hardware using RGB-HSL hardware converter, FIFO, HSL Full-Color Defect Decoder and Image Frame Buffer. The defect detection hardware is composed of hardware look-up table in converting RGB to HSL and 4K HSL Full-Color Defect Decoder with high resolution. In addition, we included an image frame for comprehensive image processing based on two dimensional image by line data accumulation instead of local image processing based on line data. As a result, we can apply the implemented system to the grain sorting machine for the sorting of peanuts effectively.

Nowadays, as the availability of tiny, low-cost microcomputer increases at a high level, mobile robots are experiencing remarkable enhancements in hardware design, software performance, and connectivity advancements. In order to control Turtlebot 2, several algorithms have been developed using the Robot Operating System(ROS). However, ROS requires to be run on a high-cost computer which increases the hardware cost and the power consumption to the robot. Therefore, design an algorithm based on low-cost hardware is the most innovative way to reduce the unnecessary costs of the hardware, to increase the performance, and to decrease the power consumed by the computer on the robot. In this paper, we present a path-finding algorithm for TurtleBot 2 based on low-cost hardware. We implemented the algorithm using Raspberry pi, Windows 10 IoT core, and RPLIDAR A2. Firstly, we used Raspberry pi as the alternative to the computer employed to handle ROS and to control the robot. Raspberry pi has the advantages of reducing the hardware cost and the energy consumed by the computer on the robot. Secondly, using RPLIDAR A2 and Windows 10 IoT core which is running on Raspberry pi, we implemented the path-finding algorithm which allows TurtleBot 2 to navigate from the starting point to the destination using the map of the area. In addition, we used C# and Universal Windows Platform to implement the proposed algorithm.

An open architecture manufacturing strategy intends to integrate manufacturing components on a single platform so that a particular component can be easily added and/or replaced. Therefore, the control scheme based upon the open architecture concept is hardware-independent. In this paper, a modular and object oriented approach for a PC-based open robot control system is investigated. A standard reference model for robot systems, which consists of three modules; hardware module, operating system module, and application software module, is first proposed. Then, a PC-based Open Robot Controller(PC-ORC), which can reconfigure robot control systems in various production environments, is developed. The PC-ORC is built upon the object-oriented method, and allows an easy implementation and modification of various modules. The PC-ORC consists of basic softwares, application objects, and additional hardware device on the PC Platform. The application objects are: sequencer, computation unit, servo control, ancillary equipment, external sensor control, and so on. In order to demonstrate the applicability of the PC-ORC, the proposed PC-ORC configuration is applied to an industrial SCARA robot system.
