In this study, a method of designing a neurointerface using neural network (NN) is proposed for controlling nonholonomic mobile robots. According to the concept of virtual master-slave robots, in particular, a partially stable inverse dynamic model of the master robot is acquired online through the NN by applying a feedback-error learning method, in which the feedback controller is assumed to be based on a PD compensator for such a nonholonomic robot. A tracking control problem is demonstrated by some simulations for a nonholonomic mobile robot with two-independent driving wheels.

Teleoperation enables an operator to manipulate remote objects. One of the main goals in teleoperation researches is to provide the operator with the feeling of the telepresence, being present at the remote site. For these purposes, a master robot must be designed as a bilateral control system that can transmit position/force information to a slave robot and feedback the interaction force. A newly proposed impedance algorithm is applied for the control of a haptic interface that was developed as a master robot. With the movements of the haptic interface for position/for co commands, impedance parameters are varying always. When the impedance parameters between an operator and ...

In this paper, we design a time optimal controller of a dual arm robot to handle the object. Differently from the master-slave type robot, same priority is imposed on the both of the arms for effective handling the specifed object. For finding a time optimal collision-free trajectory, a graphical method is applied for the robot with two degree of freedom. Some simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

We investigate a design methodology for master arm which is employed in remote-site control. Though counter-balancing has been employed for the purpose of lessening the actuator loads, it results in the increase of dynamic load at the task position. Therefore, there exists a trade-off between counter-balancing and dynamic performance. The concept of a composite index is introduced to simultaneously consider those two effects in the design of master arms. Several alternative designs of master arms are suggested.

Recently, the robotic assist system for cardiovascular intervention gets continuously growing interest. The robotic cardiovascular intervention systems are largely two folds, systems for cardiac ablation procedure assist and systems for vascular intervention assist. For the systems, the clinician controls the catheter inserted through blood vessel to the heart via a master console or master manipulator. Most of the current master manipulators have structure of joystick-like pivoting 2 degree of freedom (DOF) handle in the core, which is used in parallel with other sliding switches and input devices. It however is desirable to have customized and optimized design manipulator that can provide clinician with intuitive control of the catheter motion fully utilizing the advantage of the use of robotic structure. A 6 DOF kinematic mechanism that can capture the motion control intention of the clinician in translational 3 DOF and rotational 3 DOF is proposed in this paper. Also, a master-slave motion relationship specially designed for the cardiac catheter manipulation motion is proposed and implemented in an experimental prototype. Design revision for implementation of more efficient motion and experiment in combination with an experimental slave robot system for catheter manipulation are underway.

Use of teaching pendant is the most widespread and economical way to teach desired motion to robots. It is also very primitive,time consuming and ineffective way of teaching which has not changed since the early days of robot. In order to reduce the teaching effor, a new efficient form of teaching is needed. Also, the recent robotics research trend into service robots such as home robot, nurse robot and medical robot calls for a new teaching method which is both easy and inexpensive. In this paper, the design and operation principle of a low cost force/moment sensor is presented. The proposed sensor architecture is so simple and inexpensive that it opens the prospect for a new paradigm of robot teaching which is easy and efficinet. Other prospective areas of application are tele-manipulation of robots wher it can be used in master arm, and virtual environment where it can be used as an user input device.

Abstract: In teleoperation field robotic system such as hydraulically actuated robotic excavator, the maneuverability and convenience is the most important part in the operation of robotic excavator. Particularly the force information is important in dealing with digging and leveling operation in the teleoperated excavator. Excavators are also subject to a wide variation of soil-tool interaction forces. This paper presents a new force reflecting joystick in a velocity-force type bilateral teleoperation system. The master system is electrical joystick and the slave system IS hydraulically actuated cylinder with linear position sensor. Particularly Pneumatic motor is used newly in the master joystick for force reflection and the information of the pressure of salve cylinder is measured and utilized as the force feedback signal. Also force-reflection gain greatly affects the excavation performance of a hydraulically actuated robotic system and it is very difficult to determine it appropriately since slave excavator contacts with various environments such as from soft soil to rock. To overcome this, this paper proposes a force-reflection gain selecting algorithm based on artificial neural network and fuzzy logic.

This paper proposes an architecture of a real-time EtherCAT master library called RtEML. The controls EtherCAT slaves under EtherCAT protocol in real-time. It provides a simple programming interface which is useful in developing robot application in C/C++ or C#. To achieve deterministic, hard real-time control in Microsoft Windows environment without additional hardware, INtime is used. Since INtime is designed specifically to take advantage of the powerful capabilities of the x86 processor architecture, the proposed RtEML achieves microseconds of real-time performance.

Recently the need for cooperative control among robots is increasing in a variety of industrial robot applications. Such a control framework enhances the efficiency of the real robotic assembly environment along with extending the robot application. In this paper, an ethernet-based cooperative control framework was proposed. The cooperative control of robots can multiply the handling capacity of robot system, and make it possible to implement jigless cooperation, due to realization of trajectory-synchronized movement between a master robot and slave robots. Coordinate transformation was used to relate among robots in a common coordinate. An optimized ethernet protocol of HiNet was developed to maximize the speed of communication and to minimize the error of synchronous movement. The proposed algorithm and optimization of network protocol was tested in several class of robots.
