This paper is concerned with the application of the vision control algorithm with weighting matrix in robot point placement task. The proposed vision control algorithm involves four models, which are the robot kinematic model, vision system model, the parameter estimation scheme and robot joint angle estimation scheme. This proposed algorithm is to make the robot move actively, even if relative position between camera and robot, and camera's focal length are unknown. The parameter estimation scheme and joint angle estimation scheme in this proposed algorithm have form of nonlinear equation. In particular, the joint angle estimation model includes several restrictive conditions. For this study, the weighting matrix which gave various weighting near the target was applied to the parameter estimation scheme. Then, this study is to investigate how this change of the weighting matrix will affect the presented vision control algorithm. Finally, the effect of the weighting matrix of robot vision control algorithm is demonstrated experimentally by performing the robot point placement.

Considering the singularity of robot, singularity avoidance control of robot is very important. Because it is very difficult structurally to exclude the wrist singularity. Then new control policy is needed to overcome wrist singularity. In this paper, the singularity states of robot wrist was analyzed and control algorithms for 3 and 4 axes robot wrist were proposed. Application results of the proposed control algorithms to the path including singularity showed us their usefulness and validity.

This paper presents a gait control scheme for teleoperation of a quadruped-walking robot. In teleoperation of a walking robot, an operator gives a real-time generated velocity command to a walking robot instead of a moving trajectory. When the direction of the velocity command is changed, the periodic gait is not available because this requires an initial foot position . This paper proposes the aperiodic gait control scheme that can converge to a periodic gait Simulation results are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed control scheme.

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.

This paper presents the development of a simulator for an industrial robot. The simulator is characterized by a fully integrated dynamic model and a hardware oriented control scheme. The dynamic model includes the actuator dynamics as well as the manipulator dynamics to integrate the entire dynamics of the robot system. On the other hand, the control scheme is oriented as a hardware structure which is usually implemented in the industrial robot. That is to say, a conventional PI control law is used to regulate the position, the speed, and the current. A Pulse Wave Modulation (PWM)generator modulates the supplied voltage to the actuator. Since the simulator is consistent with the industrial robot system, it provides the essential design concepts for the development process of the robot. In practice, the simulator is applied to the SCARA robot which has been developed in GSIS. Here, it investigates the characteristics and performance of the robot with changing design parameters. Thus, the investigation furnishes criteria for the selection of acfuator, control gain, trajectory planning, etc.

The robot motion control in the industrial robot is generally executed by the teach pendant. But, it requires much teaching time and workload to the operators. This study suggests the use of the robot motion control method by the computed keyboard in the industrial robot instead of the teach pendant. TES/CCS(Teaching Expert System/Cartesian Coordinate System) and TES/WCS(Teaching Expert System/World Coordinate System) that have been proposed to improve the robot motion control are applied for this concept. This study is intended to improve the robot motion control in TES/CCS. Parameter limitation problems in getting the motion data on position and posture of the robot in macro motion control are solved by proposed geometric algorithm. This result demonstrates reduction of the average teaching task time to the teaching position.

Recently, the robot has been used in industries and laboratories for the automation and the coarse and hazardous environments. In this paepr, it was studied the robot using DC servo motors. In that maner, Gold Star educational robot "Top-1" which was drived by 6-step motors was rebuilt to the robot. "Kon Kuk-I" using 6-servo motors. Because the caracteristics of step motors were not fit well the differential change. For the precise robot control, it was designed the controller which was adopted the velocity mode control and the position mode control. It was studied also the supporting software for the robot motion. As the results of this experiments, it was found that the robot "Kon Kuk-I" moved smoothly and accurately.

This paper proposes a remote control system that combines computer network and an autonomous mobile robot. We control remotely an autonomous mobile robot with vision via the internet to guide it under unknown environments in the real time. The main feature of this system is that local operators need a World Wide Web browser and a computer connected to the internet communication network and so they can command the robot in a remote location through our Home Page. The hardware architecture of this system consists of an autonomous mobile robot, workstation, and local computers. The software architecture of this system includes the server part for communication between user and robot and the client part for the user interface and a robot control system. The server and client parts are developed using Java language which is suitable to internet application and supports multi-platform. Furthermore, this system offers an image compression method using motion JPEG concept which reduces large time delay that occurs in network during image transmission.

This paper presents a robot system that combines computer network and an autonomous mobile robot where RTOS is installed. We propose a wireless communication protocol, and also implement it on the RTOS of the robot system. Main controller of the robot processes the control program as a task type in the real-time operating system. Peripheral devices are driven by the device driver functions with the dependency of the hardware. Because the client and server program was implemented to support the multi-platforms by Java SDK and Java JMF, it is easy to analyze programs, maintain system, and correct the errors in the system. End-user can control a robot with a vision showing remote sight over the Internet in real time, and the robot is moved keeping away from the obstacles by itself and command of the server received from end-user at the local client.

For a precise manipulator control in the presence of environmental uncertainties, it has long been recognized that the robot should be controlled in a task-referenced space. In this respect, an effective visual servo control system for robot manipulators based on neural networks is proposed. In the proposed control system, a Backpropagation neural network is used first to learn the mapping relationship between the robot's joint space and the video image space. However, in the real control loop, this network is not used in itself, but its first and second derivatives are used to generate servo commands for the robot. Second, and Adaline neural network is used to identify the approximately linear dynamics of the robot and also to generate the proper joint torque commands. Computer simulation has been performed demonstrating the proposed method's superior performance. Futrhermore, the proposed scheme can be effectively utilized in a robot skill acquisition system where the robot can be taught by watching a human behavioral task.
