In this paper, a design for a vehicle body of an armored robot for complex disasters is described. The proposed design considers various requirements in complex disaster situations. Fire, explosion, and poisonous gas may occur simultaneously under those sites. Therefore, the armored robot needs a vehicle body that can protect people from falling objects, high temperature, and poisonous gas. In addition, it should provide intuitive control devices and realistic surrounding views to help the operator respond to emergent situations. To fulfill these requirements of the vehicle body, firstly, the frame was designed to withstand the impact of falling objects. Secondly, the positive pressure device and the cooling device were applied. Thirdly, a panoramic view was implemented that enables real-time observation of surroundings through a number of image sensors. Finally, the cockpit in the vehicle body was designed focused on the manipulability of the armored robot in disaster sites.

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 are so many types of sensors which have been developed in order to construct intelligence robots. This paper presents the study of the movement of a vehicle robot using a CCD-Camera. The CCD-Camera is used as a sensor to control a vehicle robot in a stable movement. This vehicle robot is called CVR. The system is the combination of the CCD-Camera, the vehicle robot and a dedicated software controller. The stability of CVR is proven by studying the movement methodology. The performance of the movement is experimented.

최근 국내외에서 무인 자동차용 로봇 개발에 관한 많은 관심과 개발 경쟁이 한층 더해가고 있다. 그러나 무인 자동차용 로봇을 효과적으로 제어하기 위한 표준화된 아키텍쳐의 부재로 개발 기간의 장기화 되고, 다른 무인 자동차용 로봇과 호환성이 저하되는 어려움이 많았다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 무인 자동차용 로봇 표준 아키텍쳐인 JAUS 기반으로 모바일 로봇을 원격 제어하는 시스템을 구현하였다. 구현된 모바일 로봇은 무선 LAN UDP/IP 프로토콜 기반으로 JAUS 명령 메시지를 사용해서 원격제어시스템과 통신한다. 본 연구의 유효성은 구현 로봇의 주행 및 장애물인식 성능에 대한 실험적 결과를 통해 보여진다.

The paper presents research for the established experiment environment of multi vehicle robot, localization algorithm that is based on vehicle control, and path tracking. The established experiment environment consists of ultrasonic positioning system, vehicle robot, server and wireless module. Ultrasonic positioning system measures positioning for using ultrasonic sensor and generates many errors because of the influence of environment such as a reflection of wall. For a solution of this fact, localization algorithm is proposed to determine a location using vehicle kinematics and selection of a reliable location data. And path tracking algorithm is proposed to apply localization algorithm and LOS, finally, that algorithms are verified via simulation and experimental

Generally, underwater vehicle type of propeller shows low efficiency about 50%-55%. However, the efficiency of swimming mechanism of a fish is 60%-70%, more efficient about 20% than screw propellers. Recently, research of underwater vehicle type of fish increase due to its good efficiency and is regarded as a typical bio-mimical robot. In this research, a new algorithm and mechanism that show low energy consumption imitating swimming mechanism of fish proposed increasing speed and running time in field trial.

In this paper, we present the development of P-SURO II hybrid AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) which can be operated in both of AUV and ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) modes. In its AUV mode, the vehicle is supposed to carry out some of underwater missions which are difficult to be achieved in ROV mode due to the tether cable. To accomplish its missions such as inspection and maintenance of complex underwater structures in AUV mode, the vehicle is required to have high level of autonomy including environmental recognition, obstacle avoidance, autonomous navigation, and so on. In addition to its systematic development issues, some of algorithmic issues are also discussed in this paper. Various experimental studies are also presented to demonstrate these developed autonomy algorithms.

The objective of this research work is to develop an autonomous levee-weeding robot. In this paper, pathway control system for the robot is developed and simulated. A prototype autonomous vehicle for levee weeding is also developed and used in the actual test. The results obtained in this research work is summarized as follows; 1) The simulated typical time history of lateral displacements and heading angle of the vehicle in straight run shows that the vehicle tendency is always to achieve the target path from any of its deviated position and heading angle. 2) The test run on an asphalt surface by the prototype crawler-type vehicle is in good agreement with the simulation results.

An unmanned surveillance robot consists of a machine gun, a laser receiver, a thermal imager, a color CCD camera, and a laser illuminator. It has two axis control systems for elevation and azimuth. Because the current robot system is mounded at a fixed post to take care of surveillance tasks, it is necessary to modify such a surveillance robot to be installed on an UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) system in order to watch blind areas. Thus, it is required to have a stabilization system to compensate the disturbance from the UGV. In this paper, a simulation based design scheme has been adopted to develop a mobile surveillance robot. The 3D CAD geometry model has first been produced by using Pro-Engineer. The required pan and tilt motor capacities have been analyzed using ADAMS inverse dynamics analysis. A target tracking and stabilization control algorithm of the mobile surveillance robot has been developed in order to compensate the motion of the vehicle which will experience the rough terrain. To test the performance of the stabilization control system of the robot, ADAMS/simulink co-simulations has been carried out.

본 논문은 자율주행차량과 로봇의 안내를 위한 새로운 자계위치인식방법을 제안한다. 차량 및 로봇이 자율주행을 하기 위해서는 이동경로상의 현재 위치를 인식하는 것이 기본적으로 요구된다. 자계기반 자율주행차량과 로봇은 자성체로부허 발생되는 자계를 계측하여 위치정보를 검출한다. 이러한 자계위치인식시스템에서 지구자계는 기본적인 왜란으로 작용한다. 본 논문에서는 지구자계의 영향을 제거하기 위해 다수의 1축 자계센서 열을 구성하였으며, 자계센서 출력의 선형동작영역을 이용하여 정밀한 위치인식시스템을 개발하였다. 제안하는 방법이 자율주행차랑과 로봇의 안내를 위해 사용 가능함을 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.
