In this paper, the prototype of a walking guide robot with tactile display is introduced, and the psychophysical experiment of the tactile recognition for a tactile display is carried out and analyzed. The objective of this research is the development of a walking guide robot for the blind to walk safely. A walking guide robot consists of a guide vehicle and a tactile display device. A guide vehicle, located in the front of the walking blind, detects the obstacle using ultrasonic sensors and offers the information of position and walking direction acquired from GPS module to the walking blind by voice. The tactile display device, located in the handle which is connected with the guide vehicle by cane, offers the processed obstacle information such as position, size, moving, shape of obstacle and safe path, etc. The psychophysical experiments for the threshold of perception and recognition ability of tactile stimulation are carried out by the estimation of the subject group. As a result the appropriate tactile stimulus intensity and frequency to recognize tactile stimulation effectively are discussed and derived.

캠퍼스를 자율적으로 주행하면서 내방객을 안내하는 안내로봇을 개발하였다. 이 로봇은 DGPS와 로봇 바퀴에 부착된 엔코더 정보를 이용하여 자신의 최적 위치를 평가하여 사전에 설정된 안내경로를 자율적으로 주행하면서 안내를 수행한다. 본 연구에서는 안내할 정보를 미리 순서대로 설정하는 기존 방법과 달리 이동 중 자신의 현재 위치를 평가하고 그 위치 주변에 안내할 정보가 있으면 그 정보를 이용하여 안내를 수행하는 위치기반 안내방법을 제안한다. 또한 안내효율을 극대화 할 수 있는 안내시나리오 구성방법을 제시한다. 개발된 안내로봇의 성능을 실제 캠퍼스 안내에 적용하여 평가하였다.

Recently, For the material transport is increased, the AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle) is the most important part in the industrial factory. So we treat the navigation control problem and experimental results using microprocessor. In navigation control, we have faced with velocity control problem related to guide path tracking problem. Carefully, In the straight line, the AGV moves at its high speed, but in the curve line, especially when the radian ratio is very big it is difficult to follow guide line. So, Using fuzzy controller we have simulated the guide path following AGV according to the varying velocity and experimented it with microprocessor.(Intel 80C196KC) Now, If we use the AGV industrial factory, we will improve the product and efficiency in spite of changing the factory environment.

본 논문에서는 이동 로봇이 호텔과 같은 실내에서 길 안내 및 짐을 운반해줄 수 있는 자율주행이 가능한 안내 시스템을 연구하였다. 일반적인 자율 주행 안내시스템에 사용되는 이동 로봇의 경우 정확도 향상을 위해 시스템에 다량의 센서가 추가되어 비용의 문제가 발생된다. 따라서 센서의 수를 줄이며 정확도와 인식률을 높이기 위해 비용이 비싸지 않은 소형 MCU중 하나인 라즈베리 파이 3를 이용하여 자율 주행 안내 시스템을 구현하였다.

The objective of this research is to develop an effective inspection planning strategy for sculptured surfaces by using 3-dimensional Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). First, the CAD/CAM database is generated by using the Bezier surface patch mathod and variable cutter step size approach for design and machining of the workpiece model. Then, optimum measuring point locations are determained based on the mean curvature analysis to obtain more effective inspection results for the given sample numbers. An optimal probe sequence generation method is proposed by implementing the Traveling Salesperson (TSP) algorithm and new guide point selection methods are suggested based on the concepts of the variable distance between the first and second guide points. Finally, simulation study and experimental work show the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

This paper presents a path planning problem for multi-robot system in the environment with dynamic obstacles. In order to guide the robots move along a collision-free path efficiently and reach the goal position quickly, a navigation method based on fuzzy logic controllers has been developed by using proximity sensors. There are two kinds of fuzzy controllers developed in this work, one is used for obstacle avoidance and the other is used for orientation to the target. Both static and dynamic obstacles are included in the environment and the dynamic obstacles are defined with no type of restriction of direction and velocity. Here, the environment is unknown for all the robots and the robots should detect the surrounding information only by the sensors installed on their bodies. The simulation results show that the proposed method has a positive effectiveness for the path planning problem.

The subject of navigation has drawn a large interest in the last few years. Navigation problem (or path planning) finds the path between two points, source location and destination location. In smart cities, solving navigation problem is essential to all residents and visitors of such cities to guide them to move easily between locations. Also, the navigation problem is very important in case of moving robots that move around the city or part of it to get some certain tasks done such as delivering packages, delivering food, etc. In either case, solution to the navigation is essential. The core to navigation systems is the navigation algorithms they employ. Navigation algorithms can be classified into navigation algorithms that depend on maps and navigation without the use of maps. The map contains all available routes and its directions. In this proposal, we consider the first class. In this paper, we are interested in getting path planning solutions very fast. In doing so, we employ a parallel platform, Reconfigurable mesh (R-Mesh), to compute the path from source location to destination location. R-Mesh is a parallel platform that has very fast solutions to many problems and can be deployed in moving vehicles and moving robots. This paper presents two algorithms for path planning. The first assumes maps with linear streets. The second considers maps with branching streets. In both algorithms, the quality of the path is evaluated in terms of the length of the path and the number of turns in the path.

Educators have found that the concept of randomness is often misunderstood by students. Chance recently pointed out that students should be introduced to the concept of randomness through the use of simulations. In this article, we studied various aspects of the probability distribution off linear random path in a circle and introduce some related simulations to guide student exploration and discovery. Consider a random line segment that crosses a circle with a certain radius. Perhaps it can be considered to be a path that an airplane shows up and flies into a random direction in a monitor. What is the expected amount of flying distance through the monitor, and the expected variation\ulcorner Are we monitoring what we see scientifically\ulcorner This article studies the probability distribution and some related aspects of a linear random path within a circular monitor. Some simulative activity is also introduced which can be used in a statistics or probability classes.

This paper describes a mini linear optical pickup actuator. To reduce the size, inner yokes are designed to guide the mover and outer yokes of permanent magnets are removed. Magnetic circuit method is used to determine the thrust force. Virtual path method is proposed to analyze the open magnetic circuit analysis. The magnetic circuit of the proposed actuator can be a closed circuit due to the virtual path model of the outer magnetic flux. The validity of virtual path method is evaluated by comparing to the FEM analysis. Structural vibration is investigated using FEM and the design of the mover is modified to improve the vibration characteristic. Dynamic characteristic experiments shows that the performance of the proposed actuator is enough to be used as a coarse and fine seeking actuator simultaneously and the thrust force margin for loading a focusing actuator is guaranteed.

Less researches on AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle) path configurations have been conducted so far while more studies have been placed in determining AGV guide path directions and pick-up/drop-off station locations, and routing/dispatching/scheduling strategies. In practice plenty of concerns fall in preventing deadlock and simplifying AGV system control through an appropriate AGV path configuration. In order to meet those requirements, a new AGV path configuration, inter-loop stocker type is introduced here. The stocker serves as relaying material between loops as well as stocking material. Automated material handling systems using AGVs play an important role in semiconductor industry including TFT LCD and memory/non-memory chip. A practical example of implementing the inter-loop stocker concept successfully in the TFT LCD fab is presented in this paper.
