Robot manipulator has highly nonlinear dynamics. Therefore the control of multi-link robot arms is a challenging and difficult problem. In this paper a decentralized adaptive fuzzy sliding mode scheme is developed for control of robot manipulators. The proposed scheme does not require an accurate manipulator dynamic model, yet it guarantees asymptotic trajectory tracking despite gross robot parameter variations. Numerical simulation for decentralized control of a 3-axis PUMA arm will also be included.

The cooperative strategy for the teleoperated multi-agent system is presented. And this scheme has been applied to the teleoperated robot soccer system that is newly proposed. For the teleoperated robot soccer system, we made mapping functions to control a 2-wheeled mobile robot using a 2 DoF stickcontroller. The simulation with a real stickcontroller has been evaluated the performance of the proposed mapping function. Then, the basic cooperation strategy has been tested between teleoperated robot and autonomous robot It is shown that the multi-agent system for teleoperation can have a good performance for a job Like a scoring a goal

This paper describes a visual control scheme, fuzzy logic system for visual servoing of an autonomous mobile robot. An existing communication autonomous mobile robot always needs to keep the object in image to detect the moving object. This is a problem in an autonomous mobile robot for spontaneous activity. To solve it, some features for an object are taken from an image and then use in the design of fuzzy logic system for decision of moving location and direction of visual servoing contrivance(apparatus). So continuous tracking is possible by moving the visual servoing contrivance. We present some simulation results and further studies in the Section of Simulation and Concluding Remarks.

Generally, the wheel-driven mobile robot systems, by their structural property, have nonholonomic constraints. These constraints are not integrable and cannot be written as time derivatives of some functions with respect to the generalized coordinates. Hence, nonlinear approaches are required to solve the problems. In this paper, the trajectory controller of wheeled mobile robot systems is suggested to guarantee its convergence to reference trajectory. Design procedure of the suggested trajectory controller is back-stepping scheme which was introduced recently in nonlinear control theory. The performance of the proposed trajectory controller is verified via computer simulation. In the simulation, the trajectory controller is applied to differentially driven robot system and car-like mobile robot system on the assumption that the trajectory planner be given.

The dynamic stability of a robot vehicle can be enhanced by the Force-Angle Stability Margin concept that considers a variety of dynamic effects. To evaluate the robot vehicle stability, a SPI(stability performance index), which is a function of the suspension arm angles, was used. If the SPI has a minimum value, the robot vehicle has maximum stability. The FASM and SPI concepts were incorporated in the mobility simulation by using ADAMS and MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results using these concepts showed significant improvements of the vehicle stability on rough terrains.

There has been an ever increasing interest in mobile robot for home services. However, issues currently being investigated for path planning of the mobile robot is concentrated to solving the problem of finding the optimal path from the initial location to the final location under the given performance index. In this study, we newly present a sweeping algorithm for autonomous mobile robot to cover the whole closed area under the unknown environment. And we verify the validity the validity of the formalized algorithm by computer simulation with the changing environment conditions. In addition to this, we analyse the effect of real system implementation of the proposed algorithm to a experimental miniature mobile robit(Khepera).

The purpose of this paper is the development of a fully integrated simulation package for industrial robot. The simulation package consists of kinematics, dynamics, and control. The kinematics contains trajectory plans and inverse kinematics. The dynamics combines manipulator dynamics and actuator dynamics including the effect of payloads and viscous frictions. The control is a hardware oriented scheme which contains position controller, velocity controller, current controller, and PWM generator. Thus, the simulation package can be used not only for theoretical purposes but also for development purposes in industry. Using this package, the characteristics and performances of the SCARA robot, which has been developed in GSIS, are investigated.

Many impact or drop test researches of home appliances are published, but those of toys cannot be found easily. External impacts are the primary causes of fracture of toys. For impact proof design, the finished product should pass an impact test after molding design. There are several international toy safety standards or requirements such as US CPSC(Consumer Product Safety Commission), ASTM F963-96a, EN71 and so on. The puppy robot which patrols around the house, namely, the watchdog was selected to investigate toy safety because it has considerable weight and outer panels are made of plastics. First the model of watchdog robot was obtained by 3 dimensional scan. Surface data can be generated from 3D polygon data of the watchdog. A reliable drop simulation method for the watchdog was established using Pam-crash program according to Korean toy safety standards. When there is a low impact allowance value, the molding design should be reinforced or changed. It was found that the maximum impact stress reaches the ultimate stress of panel material.

As AI technology advances, interest in performing multi-robot autonomous missions for manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) is increasing. In order to develop autonomous mission performance technology for multiple robots, simulation technology that reflects the characteristics of real robots and can flexibly apply various missions is needed. Additionally, in order to solve complex non-linear tasks, an API must be provided to apply multi-robot reinforcement learning technology, which is currently under active research. In this study, we propose the campaign model to flexibly simulate the missions of multiple robots. We then discuss the results of developing a simulation environment that can be edited and run and provides a reinforcement learning API including acceleration performance. The proposed simulated control module and simulated environment were verified using an enemy infiltration scenario, and parallel processing performance for efficient reinforcement learning was confirmed through experiments.

Digital Manufacturing-based production could be very effective in shipbuilding in order to save costs and time, to increase safety for workers, and to prevent bottleneck processes in advance. Digital shipbuilding system, a simulation-based production tool, is being developed to achieve such aspects in Korea. To simulate material flow in a subassembly line at a shipyard, the product, process and resources was modeled for the subassembly process which consisted of several sub-processes such as tack welding, piece alignment, tack welding, and robot welding processes. The analysis and modeling were carried out by using the UML(Unified Modeling Language), an object-oriented modeling method as well as IDEF(Integration DEFinition), a functional modeling tool. Initially, the characteristics of the shop resources were analyzed using the shipyard data, and the layout of the subassembly line was designed with the resources. The production process modeling of the subassembly lines was performed using the discrete event simulation method. Using the constructed resource and process model, the productivity and efficiency of the line were investigated. The number of workers and the variations In the resource performance such as that of a new welding robot were examined to simulate the changes in productivity. The bottleneck process floated according to the performance of the new resources. The proposed model was viewed three-dimensionally in a digital environment so that interferences among objects and space allocations for the resources could be easily investigated
