Teaching Expert System/World Coordinate System(TES/WDS) was proposed to improve robot motion control. First, precise coordinate reading for getting the inherent data about position and posture of task objects was performed throgh the integrated image and fuzzy processing. Second, singularity and parameter limitation problems in getting the motion data about position and posture of robot in macro motion were solved by proposed geometric algorithm. Third, the unnecessary robot motion was also removed by the Robot Time and Motion (RTM) method and the Multi-Geometric Straight-Line Motion (MGSLM) method in micro motion. This results demonstrated reduction of the average teaching task time according to task order.

In order to let the humanoid robot walk on the uneven terrains, the robot's foot should have the similar structure and function as human's. The intelligent foot should be made up of toes and heel. When it walks on the uneven terrains, the foot's sole senses the force and adjusts foot's position before robot losing his balance. In this paper, the force sensors of robot's intelligent foot for having the similar structure and function like human are developed. The heel 3-axis force/moment sensor and toe force sensors for humanoid robot's intelligent foot is developed, and the characteristic tests of them are carried out. As a result of characteristic test, the interference error of the heel 3-axis force/moment sensor is less than 2.2%. It is thought that the developed force sensors could be used to measure the reaction forces which is applied the toes and the heel of a humanoid robot.

사람과 로봇간 인터페이스 연구가 활발히 진행되어감에 따라 원격으로 로봇을 조종하고 그 로봇을 통해 환경 정보를 제공받는 텔레프레전스 시스템에 관심이 증가하고 있다. 로봇이 움직임 따라 자연스러운 텔레프레전스 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 사용자 행동인식이 매우 중요하다. 이전에 제안되었던 텔레프레전스의 사용자의 이동 인식시스템은 개발이 어려우며 많은 비용이 요구되고 사용자와 로봇간의 상호작용에 많은 한계를 보여왔다. 본논문에서는 닌텐도의 게임기 WII의 적외선 리모콘을 이용하여 사용자의 이동 및 시선을 파악하고 그 정보를 바탕으로 원거리의 로봇(Sony의 AIBO)을 움직여 사용자가 원하는 정보를 HMD를 통해 수신할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.

A haptic hand controller (HHC) operated by the user’s hand can receive information on position and orientation of the hand and display force and moment generated in the virtual environment to the hand. In this paper, a 3-DOF hand controller is first presented, in which all the actuators are mounted on the fixed base by combining a 5-bar linkage and a gimbal mechanism. The 6-DOF HHC is then designed by connecting these two 3-DOF devices through a handle which consists of a screw and nut. Analysis using performance index is carried out to determine the dimensions of the device. The HHC control system consists of the high-level controller for kinematic and static analysis and the low-level controller for position sensing and motor control. The HHC used as a user interface to control the mobile robot in the virtual environment is given as a simple application.

본 연구는 미래예측방법으로 많이 활용되고 있는 시나리오플래닝 방법론을 적용하여 2006년에 개발된 한국형 수중로봇시스템(심해무인잠수정시스템)의 바람직한 미래상을 도출하였다. 한국이 개발한 이 심해무인잠수정의 설계심도는 6000미터이며, 그 구성을 보면, '해미래'는 실질적인 심해탐사작업을 실행하고, 이 '해미래'를 지원하는 '해누비'는 심해에서 시료채취나 탐사가 가능하다. 한편 이 한국형 심해무인잠수정시스템은 수중복합항법시스템을 사용하고 있지만, 6000m심해에서 5m이내의 항법오차가 있고 50cm이내의 상대 위치오차를 가지고 있다. 따라서 본고는 이를 보완하여 관련 분야에서 기술 선도국이 될 수 있는 한국정부가 추진해야 할 바람직한 미래전략방향을 고찰했다. 그 결과 인디케이터와 가상벽을 갖춘 외부장치를 구비한 심해무인잠수정 시스템 개발이 한국에 있어 미래지향적인 정책추진방안이었다.

Previous researches show that linearly integrated Hall sensor arrays (LIHaS) can detect cracks in the steel structure fast and effectively This paper proposes an algorithm that estimates the size and shape of cracks for the developed LIHaS. In most nondestructive testing (NDT), just crack existence and location are obtained by processing 1-dimensional data from the sensor that scans the object with relative speed in single direction. The proposed method is composed with two steps. The first step is constructing 2-dimensionally mapped data space by combining the converted position data from the time-based scan data with the position information of sensor arrays those are placed in the vertical direction to the scan direction. The second step is applying designed Laplacian filter and smoothing filter to estimate the size and shape of cracks. The experimental results of express train wheels show that the proposed algorithm is not only more reliable and accurate to detecting cracks but also effective to estimate the size and shape of cracks.
