Biped robot has better mobility than other mobile robot, but it is hard to maintain balance during walking. In order to maintain balance, stability analysis is a key point for a biped robot. The zero moment point analysis has been used most in stability analysis. In this paper, we propose different method of stability analysis using wrench system. It is possible to generate a wrench system by applying a force along an axis in space and simultaneously applying a moment about the same axis. Wrench system is equivalent to a force and moment applied along the same axis. We compare the result of wrench system analysis with that of zero moment analysis in biped robot stability using simulation program.

This paper studies a visual feedback control scheme for robot manipulators with camera-in-hand configurations. We design a robust controller that compensates for bounded parametric uncertainties of robot mechanical dynamics. In order to reduce steady state tracking error of the robot arms due to uncertain dynamics, integral action is included in the control input. Using the Lyapunov stability criterion, the uniform ultimate boundedness of the tracking error is proved. Simulation and experimental results with a 2-1ink robot manipulator illustrate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a robust controller for motion control of n-link robot manipulators using visual feedback. The desired joint velocity and acceleration is obtained by the feature-based visual systems and is used in the joint velocity control loop for trajectory control of the robot manipulator. We design a robust controller that compensates for bounded parametric uncertainties of robot dynamics. The stability analysis of robust joint velocity control system is shown by Lyapunov Method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown by simulation results on the 5-link robot manipulators with two degree of freedom.

Wheeled mobile robot has different mobility and steerability which determined by type of wheel and it's arrangement. Generally wheeled mobile robot's dynamics are nonlinear and various control methods have studied to control the mobile robot efficiently. In this paper, a T-S fuzzy modeling of a 2-wheeled mobile robot is mand a stable LMI-based state feedback fuzzy controller is designed and applied to the position control of the mobile robot for the reference trajectory following. Also, the verification of the designed controller is done by computer simulation.

In this paperwe develop a real-time simulator for direct drive cooperative robot by using OpenGL in a Windows NT based system. This simulator is composed of 2 parts, a display part and an interface part. In the display part the robot is modelled and rendered in 3D space. To do this OpenGL, a kind of graphic library, is used for rendering and animating robots and kinematics gives the information of the current robot configuration. The control and the feedback data are sent and received via the interface part. In real time simulation interfacing part needs fast data transfer rate and good nosic immunity. In experiment we have simulated 2-link direct drive cooperative robots using the trajectory tracking algorithm proposed in reference.

Completer coverage path planning requires the robot path to cover every part of the workspace, which is an essential issue in cleaning robots and many other robotic applications such as vacuum robots and painter robots. In this paper, a novel Water Flowing Algorithm (WFA) is proposed for cleaning robots to complete coverage path planning in unknown environment without obstacles. The robot covers the whole workspace just like that water fills up a container. First the robot goes to the lowest point in the workspace just like water flows to the bottom of the container. At last the robot will come to highest point in the workspace just like water overflows from the container and simultaneously the robot has covered the whole workspace. The computer simulation results show that the proposed algorithm enable the robot to plan complete coverage paths.

In this paper, we have developed a tele-robotic system for nozzle dam installation/removal works and tube relating maintenance works inside unclear power plant steam generator. Developed tele-robotic system consists of many hardwares including robot and a control system. Based on the 3 dimensional graphic simulation, a 6 D.O.F. hydraulic actuated robot and a 2 D.O.F. robot install/removal device have been developed. And also we deviced special tools for nozzle dam carry and bolting. For the tele-robot and other devices to be controlled at the nonradioactive area outside reactor containment building, we developed a tele-robot control system consisting of supervisory controller and remote controller.

A graphic simulator is efficient to see what will happen to the target robot. But it is not exactly same as the real world. Because there are so many physical laws to be concerned. In this paper, we propose a simulator with physics engine to create motions for quadruped robot. It is not only to show more real simulations but also to be more efficient for teaching motions to quadruped robot. To solve the quadruped robot's dynamics or inverse kinematics, It takes much times and hard effort. Using physics engine make it easy to setup motions without calculating inverse kinematics or dynamics.

This paper presents a study on the position tracking control of robot system on the uncertain elastic base. The elastic base is modeled as a virtual robot which has passive joints and the control strategy is using approximate Jacobian operators. Jacobian operators represent the overall robot system including base movement. However, because we don't know the base movement we can't estimate the jacobian operators directly. The control algorithm is proposed which uses only Jacobian operators of a real robot as approximate Jacobian operators. The measured errors from external sensor are compensated by approximate Jacobian operators. The simulation results of a single-axis robot system show that the control strategy can be used for position tracking.

Field robot represented by excavator can be applied for various kinds of working in manufacturing, construction, agriculture etc. because of the flexibility of its multi-joint mechanism and the high power of hydraulic actuators. In general, the dynamics of field robot have strong coupling, various kinds of non-linearity, and time-varying parameters according to working conditions. Therefore, it is very difficult to describe the system well, and design controller systematically based on its model. This paper established the mathematical model of field robot driven by electro-hydraulic servomechanism and constructed the adaptive control system robust to external load variations. The proposed control system for the field robot was evaluated by the computer simulation and the performance results of trajectory tracking were compared with that of PID control system.
