In this paper, we have designed the humanoid robot's leg parts with 12 D.O.F. This robot uses ankle's joints to confirm stability of walking performance. It is less movable to use ankle's joints than to do upper body's balancing joints like IWR-III, which needs three parts of via points, support leg, swing leg and balancing joints. Instead, the proposed humanoid robot needs support leg and swing leg via points. ZMP(Zero Moment Point) is utilized to guarantee the stability of robot's walking. The humanoid robot uses the ankle's joints to compensate for IWR-III's balancing joints movement. Actually we concern about a motor performance when making a real humanoid robot. So a simulator is employed to know each joint torque of humanoid robot. This simulator needs D-H(Denavit-Hartenberg) parameters, robot's mass property and two parts of via points. The simulation results are robot's walking trajectories and each motor torque. Using the walking trajectories, we can see the robot's walking scene with 3D simulator. Before we develop the humanoid robot, simulation of the humanoid robot's walking performance is very helpful. And the torque data will be used to make humanoid's joint module.

지능형 네트워크 로봇은 다양한 환경에서 네트워크 시스템과 연계하여 인간과 상호작용을 하며, 상황에 따라 주어진 역할을 수행한다. 유비쿼터스 환경에서 동작하는 네트워크 기반의 URC 로봇은 분산 컴퓨팅 환경에서 클라이언트 로봇의 기능을 서버로 분산시킴으로써 클라이언트 로봇을 경량화하는 장점을 갖는다. URC 로봇 환경 중에서 SOMAR는 서버-클라이언트 환경에서 서비스 지향기법으로 로봇 소프트웨어를 개발하기 위해 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 URC 로봇 환경에서 사용 가능한 SOMAR 로봇 클라이언트를 소개하고 그 구현을 보인다. SOMAR 로봇 클라이언트는 디바이스 서비스 계층과 로봇 서비스 계층을 갖는다. 이 중 디바이스 서비스는 디바이스를 제어하는 서비스이고, 로봇 서비스는 다수의 디바이스 서비스를 결합하여 생성된 로봇이 제공하는 서비스를 추상화시킨 것이다. 또한 본 논문에서는 디바이스와 로봇 서비스의 결합 관계를 표현하기 위해 RSEL (Robot Service Executing Language)을 이용하였다. 서비스 결합을 기술한 RSEL 문서는 변환기를 통해 클라이언트 시스템 언어로 변환하고 컴파일링하여 로봇 클라이언트 시스템에 업로드한다. SOMAR 클라이언트 시스템은 호스트/타겟 구조를 갖는 내장형 시스템에 적용하기가 용이하며, RSEL 처리 엔진에 대한 부담을 줄여서 로봇 클라이언트를 경량화시켰다.

The robot to search and rescue is used in narrow space where human cannot approach. In case of this robot, it can overcome obstacles such as wrecks or stairs etc. Also, this robot can do various locomotion for each object. In this reason, an articulated robot has advantages comparing with one module robot. However, the existing articulated robot has limits to overcome vertical passages. For expanding contacted territory of robot, a novel mechanism is demanded. In this paper, the novel mechanism of articulated mobile robot is designed for moving level ground and vertical passages. This paper proposes to change wheel alignment. The robot needs two important motions for passing vertical passages like pipe. One is a motion to press wheels at wall for not falling into gravity direction. The other is a motion that wheels contact a vertical direction of wall's tangential direction for reducing loss of force. The mechanism of the robot focused that two motions can be acted to use just one motor. Length of each link of robot is optimized that wheels contact a vertical direction of wall's tangential direction through kinematic modeling of each link. The force of pressing wall of robot is calculated through dynamic modeling. This robot composes four modules. This mechanism is confirmed by dynamic simulation using ADAMS program. The articulated mobile robot is elaborated based on the results of kinematic modeling and dynamic simulation.

A potential field method for solving the problem of path planning based on global and local information for a mobile robot moving among a set of stationary obstacles is described. The concept of various method used path planning is used design a planning strategy. A real human living area is constructed by many moving and imminence obstacles. Home service mobile robot must avoid many obstacles instantly. A path that safe and attraction towards the goal is chosen. The potential function depends on distance from the goal and heuristic function relies on surrounding environments. Three additional combined methods are proposed to apply to human living area, calibration robots position by measured surrounding environment and adapted home service robots. In this work, we proposed the application of various path planning theory to real area, human living. First, we consider potential field method. Potential field method is attractive method, but that method has great problem called local minimum. So we proposed intermediate point in real area. Intermediate point was set in doorframe and between walls there is connect other room or other area. Intermediate point is very efficiency in computing path. That point is able to smaller area, area divided by intermediate point line. The important idea is intermediate point is permanent point until destruction house or apartment house. Second step is move robot with sensing on front of mobile robot. With sensing, mobile robot recognize obstacle and judge moving obstacle. If mobile robot is reach the intermediate point, robot sensing the surround of point. Mobile robot has data about intermediate point, so mobile robot is able to calibration robots position and direction. Third, we gave uncertainty to robot and obstacles. Because, mobile robot was motion and sensing ability is not enough to control. Robot and obstacle have uncertainty. So, mobile robot planed safe path planning to collision free. Finally, escape local minimum, that has possibility occur robot do not work. Local minimum problem solved by virtual obstacle method. Next is some supposition in real living area.

This paper a new solution approach to moving obstacle avoidance problem of a mobile robot. A new concept avoidability measure (AVM) is defined to describe the state of a pair of a robot and an obstacle regarding the collision between them. As an AVM, virtual distance function (VDF), is derived as a function of the distance from the obstacle to the robot and outward speed of the obstacle relative to the robot. By keeping the virtual distance above some positive limit value, the robot avoids the obstacle. In terms of the VDF ,an artificial potential field is constructed to repel the robot away from the obstacle and to attract the robot toward a goal location. At every sampling time, the artificial potential field is updated and the force driving the robot is derived from the gradient of the artificial potential field. The suggested algorithm drives the robot to avoid moving obstacles in real time. Since the algorithm considers the mobility of the obstacle as well as the distance, it is effective for moving obstacle avoidance. Some simulation studies show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

A multi-robot control algorithm using Petri-Net is proposed for 5vs5 robot soccer. The dynamic environment of robot soccer is modeled by defining the place and transition of each robot and converting it into Petri-Net diagram. Once all the places and transitions of robots are represented by the Petri-Net model, their actions can be chosen according to the roles of robots and position of the ball in soccer game, e.g., offensive, defensive and goalie robot. The proposed modeling method is implemented for soccer robot system. The efficiency and applicability of the proposed multiple-robot control algorithm using Petri-Net are demonstrated through 5vs5 Middle League SimuroSot soccer game.

In this paper novel concept of real reality robot game controlled by a mobile server robot is proposed. Real reality robot game means that two real robots controlled by two human operator through the internet are playing a boxing game. The mobile server robot captures playing images of the boxing game and send them to GUI on the screen of human operators’ PC. The human operator can login to boxing game from any computer in any place if he/she is permitted. Remote control of boxing robot by a motion capture system through network is implemented. Successful motion control of a boxing robot remotely controlled by a motion capture system through network can be achieved.

A new method of estimating the pose of a mobile-task robot is developed based upon an active calibration scheme. The utility of a mobile-task robot is widely recognized, which is formed by the serial connection of a mobile robot and a task robot. For the control of the mobile robot, an absolute position sensor is necessary. This paper proposes an active calibration scheme to estimate the pose of a mobile robot that carries a task robot on the top. The active calibration scheme is to estimate a pose of the mobile robot using the relative position/orientation to a known object whose location, size, and shape are known a priori. Through the homogeneous transformation, the absolute position/orientation of the camera is calculated and that is propagated to getting the pose of a mobile robot. With the experiments in the corridor, the proposed active calibration scheme is verified experimentally.
