Latest advances in hardware technology and state of the art of mobile robot and artificial intelligence research can be employed to develop autonomous and distributed monitoring systems. And mobile service robot requires the perception of its present position to coexist with humans and support humans effectively in populated environments. To realize these abilities, robot needs to keep track of relevant changes in the environment. This paper proposes a localization of mobile robot using the images by distributed intelligent networked devices (DINDs) in intelligent space (ISpace) is used in order to achieve these goals. This scheme combines data from the observed position using dead-reckoning sensors and the estimated position using images of moving object, such as those of a walking human, used to determine the moving location of a mobile robot. The moving object is assumed to be a point-object and projected onto an image plane to form a geometrical constraint equation that provides position data of the object based on the kinematics of the intelligent space. Using the a priori known path of a moving object and a perspective camera model, the geometric constraint equations that represent the relation between image frame coordinates of a moving object and the estimated position of the robot are derived. The proposed method utilizes the error between the observed and estimated image coordinates to localize the mobile robot, and the Kalman filtering scheme is used to estimate the location of moving robot. The proposed approach is applied for a mobile robot in ISpace to show the reduction of uncertainty in the determining of the location of the mobile robot. Its performance is verified by computer simulation and experiment.

We have been developed an intelligent mobile robot with an artificial olfactory function to recognize odours and to track odour source location. This mobile robot also has ben installed an engine for speech recognition and synthesis and is controlled by wireless communication. An artificial olfactory system based on array of 7 gas sensors has been installed in the mobile robot for odour recognition, and 11 gas sensors also are located in the obttom of robot to track odour sources. 3 optical sensors are also in cluded in the intelligent mobile robot, which is driven by 2 D. C. motors, for clash avoidance in a way of direction toward an odour source. Throughout the experimental trails, it is confirmed that the intelligent mobile robot is capable of not only the odour recognition using artificial neural network algorithm, but also the tracking odour source using the step-by-step approach method. The preliminary results are promising that intelligent mobile robot, which has been developed, is applicable to service robot system for environmental monitoring, localization of odour source, odour tracking of hazardous areas etc.

This research is to introduce about Judgment System for Intelligent Movement(JSIM) that can perform assistance work of human brain. JSIM can order autonomous command and also it can be directly controlled by user. This research assumes that control object is limited to Mobile Robot(MR) Mobile robot offers image and ultrasonic sensor information to user carrying JSIM and it performs guide to user. JSIM having PDA and Sensor-box controls velocity and direction of the mobile robot by soft-computing method that inputs user's command and information that is obtained to mobile robot. Also it controls mobile robot to achieve various movement. This paper introduces wearable JSIM that communicates with around devices and that can do intelligent judgment. To verify the possibility of the proposed system, in real environment, the simulation of control and application problem lot mobile robot will be introduced. Intelligent algorithm in the proposed system is generated by mixed hierarchical fuzzy and neural network.

In this paper, we propose the navigation control method for intelligent robot using messy genetic algorithm. The fuzzy controller design for navigation of the intelligent robot was dependant on expert's knowledge. But, the parameters of the fuzzy logic controller obtained from expert's control action may not be outimal. In this paper, to solve the above problem, we propose the identification method to automatically tune the number of fuzzy rule and parameters of memberships of fuzzy controller using mGA. Finally, to show and evaluate the generality and feasibility of the proposed method, we provides some simulations for wall following navigation of intelligent robot.

In the near future, robots will be used for the personal use. To provide useful services to humans, it will be necessary for robots to understand human intentions. Consequently, the development of emotional interfaces for robots is an important expansion of human-robot interactions. We designed and developed an intelligent emotional interface for the robot, and applied the interfaces to our humanoid robot, AMIET. Subsequent human-robot interaction demonstrated that our intelligent emotional interface is very intuitive and friendly

This paper proposes the controller for biped robot using intelligent control algorithm. The main purpose of this paper is to design the robot controller using Hierarchical Mixture of Experts(HME). The neural network direct control method will be applied to the control scheme for the biped robot and neural network will learn the dynamics of biped robot. The teaming scheme using a intelligent controller to biped robot is developed. The teaming scheme uses a HME controller combined with a inverse biped robot model. The controller provides the control signals at each control time instant. Simulation results are reported for a seven-link biped robot.

Intelligent walking modeling of humanoid robot using learning based neuro-fuzzy system is presented in this paper. Walking pattern, trajectory of the zero moment point (ZMP) in a humanoid robot is used as an important criterion for the balance of the walking robots but its complex dynamics makes robot control difficult. In addition, it is difficult to generate stable and natural walking motion for a robot. To handle these difficulties and explain empirical laws of the humanoid robot, we are modeling practical humanoid robot using neuro-fuzzy system based on the two types of natural motions which are walking trajectories on a t1at floor and on an ascent. Learning based neuro-fuzzy system employed has good learning capability and computational performance. The results from neuro-fuzzy system are compared with previous approach.

The ecology of Physically Embedded Intelligent Systems (PEIS) is a new multi robotic framework conceived by integrating insights from the fields of autonomous robotics and ambient intelligence. A PEIS-Ecology is a network of intelligent robotic devices that can provide the user with assistance, information, communication, and entertainment services. In this paper we introduce the concept of PEIS Ecology, and illustrate a concrete realization of a PEIS-Ecology.

An intelligent robot with RSSI based indoor location estimation function was designed and implemented. A wireless sensor node was attached to the robot to received the location data from the indoor location estimation function. Spartan III was used as the main control device in the mobile robot. The current location data collected from the indoor location estimation system was transferred to the mobile robot and server through Zigbee/IEEE 802.15.4 wireless communication of the sensor node. Once the location data is received, the sensor node senses the direction of the robot head and directs the robot to move to its destination. Indoor location estimation intelligent robot is able to move efficiently and actively to the user appointed location by implementing the proposed obstacles avoidance algorithm. This system is able to monitor real-time environmental data and location of the robot using PC program. Indoor location estimation intelligent robot also can be controlled by executing the instructions sent from the PC program.
