Recently, demands on the tapping machine are increased due to the case of a cell phone is changed to metal such as aluminum. The automatic tool changer (ATC) is one of the most important devices for the tapping machine related to the speed and energy consumption of the machine. To reduce the consumed energy and vibration, the dynamic modeling is essential for the ATC. In this paper, inverse dynamic modeling of a novel ATC mechanism is introduced. The proposed ATC mechanism is composed of a double four-bar mechanism with a circular tablet to generate continuous rotation of the tablet. The dynamic modeling is performed based on the Lagrange equation with a modeling for the contact between the four-bar and the tablet. Simulation results for various working conditions are proposed and analyzed for the prototype design. The dynamic modeling can be applied to determine the proper actuator and to reduce the vibration and consumed energy for the ATC machine.

This paper addresses the localization and navigation problem using invisible two dimensional barcodes on the floor. Compared with other methods using natural/artificial landmark, the proposed localization method has great advantages in cost and appearance, since the location of the robot is perfectly known using the barcode information after the mapping is finished. We also propose a navigation algorithm which uses the topological structure. For the topological information, we define nodes and edges which are suitable for indoor navigation, especially for large area having multiple rooms, many walls and many static obstacles. The proposed algorithm also has an advantage that errors occurred in each node are mutually independent and can be compensated exactly after some navigation using barcode. Simulation and experimental results. were performed to verify the algorithm in the barcode environment, and the result showed an excellent performance. After mapping, it is also possible to solve the kidnapped case and generate paths using topological information.

This study proposes a multi-robot system, using multiple autonomous robots, to explore concrete structures and assist in their maintenance by sealing any cracks present in the structure. The proposed system employed a new self-localization method that is essential for autonomous robots, along with a visualization system to recognize the external environment and to detect and explore cracks efficiently. Moreover, more efficient crack search in an unknown environment became possible by arranging the robots into search areas divided depending on the surrounding situations. Operations with increased efficiency were also realized by overcoming the disadvantages of the infeasible logical behavioral model design with only six basic behavioral strategies based on distributed control-one of the methods to control swarm robots. Finally, this study investigated the efficiency of the proposed multi-robot system via basic sensor testing and simulation.

본 논문에서는 수직다관절 로봇에 걸리는 중력 토크를 보상하는데 주로 사용되는 스프링 중력보상장치의 최적설계에 대하여 기술하였다. 스트레스, 좌굴, 피로 조건과 같은 스프링 설계에 대한 다수의 비선형 제약 조건을 반영하면서, 동시에 계산 시간을 줄이기 위하여, SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming)를 적용하였다. 또한 정수해를 가져야 하는 설계 변수를 반영하기 위하여, Continuous Relaxation 방법을 사용하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 설계된 중력보상 장치가 주요 작업 영역에서 추가의 무게 증가 없이 중력 보상 성능이 효과적으로 높아짐을 입증하였다.

본 논문은 초음파 센서에 의해 인식된 정보를 항체와 항원으로 모델링 된 퍼지 인공 명역망에 의한 하위 행위기와 상위 행동 선택기로 설계된 자율이동로봇 시스템에 관한 연구이다. 외부 환경과 행동 패턴의 관계는 매우 많은 조합이 가능하다. 이러한 복잡한 관계 속에서 행동의 우선 순위를 어떻게 결정하는가 하는 문제가 가장 중요하다. 이런 복잡한 결정을 위해 본 논문에서는 퍼지 인공 면역망 알고리즘을 제시하고, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션에 의해 제안된 자율이동로봇의 행위 선택기의 유용성을 보여준다.

이동하는 스마트폰이나 로봇의 단안 카메라를 이용하여 연속적으로 촬영된 이미지들을 분석하여 카메라의 위치를 추정하는 것은 메타버스나 이동 로봇, 사용자 위치 서비스에서 매우 중요하다. 지금까지는 PnP 관련 기술들을 적용하여 위치를 계산하였는데, 본 논문에서는 연속된 영상들에 적용된 에피폴라 기하학에서의 필수 행렬을 이용하여 카메라의 이동 방향을 구하고 기하학적인 수식 계산을 통해 카메라의 연속적인 이동 위치를 추정하는 방법을 새롭게 제안하였고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 정확성을 검증하였다. 이 방식은 기존의 방식과는 전혀 다른 방법으로 두 개 이상의 영상에서 하나 이상의 일치되는 특징점만 있어도 적용할 수 있는 특징이 있다.

This paper presents a new approach to the design of adaptive control system using DSPs(TMS320C31) for robotic manpulators to achieve accurate trajectory tracking by the joint angles Digital signal processors are used in implementing real time adaptive control algorithms to provide an enhanced motion control for robotic manipulators. In the proposed contorl scheme, adaptation laws are derived from the improved Lyapunov second stability analysis method based on the adaptive model reference control theory. The adaptive controller consists of an adaptive feedforward controller, feedback controller, and PID type time varying auxillary control elements. The proposed adaptive control scheme is simple in structure, fast in computation, and suitable for implementation of real-time control. Morever, this scheme does not require an accurate dynamic modeling nor values of manpipulator parameters and payload. Performance of the adaptive controller is illustated by simulation and experimental results for a SCARA robot.

This paper presents a hybrid algorithm to solve the multi-objective path planning (MOPP) problem for mobile robots in a static nuclear accident environment. The proposed algorithm mimics a real nuclear accident site by modeling the environment with a two-layer cost grid map based on geometric modeling and Monte Carlo calculations. The proposed algorithm consists of two steps. The first step optimizes a path by the hybridization of improved ant colony optimization algorithm-modified A^* (IACO-A^*) that minimizes path length, cumulative radiation dose and energy consumption. The second module is the high radiation dose rate avoidance strategy integrated with the IACO-A^* algorithm, which will work when the mobile robots sense the lethal radiation dose rate, avoiding radioactive sources with high dose levels. Simulations have been performed under environments of different complexity to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, and the results show that IACO-A^* has better path quality than ACO and IACO. In addition, a study comparing the proposed IACO-A^* algorithm and recent path planning (PP) methods in three scenarios has been performed. The simulation results show that the proposed IACO-A^* IACO-A^* algorithm is obviously superior in terms of stability and minimization the total cost of MOPP.

The purpose of this paper was to design an effective control system of 1-axis exciter for a seat vibration test of agricultural tractors using MATLAB simulation. The developed simulation model was composed with a hydraulic pump, a hydraulic servo valve, a hydraulic cylinder and load system. Also it was verified by comparing the simulation results with experimental results of actual control system in order to optimize the control performance. And in order to improve its control performance, the designed PID controller in this research was tuned using Ziegler-Nichols 2nd law and zero's moving method of PID controller's transfer function. As the result of these research, the developed position control system was able to control the system's position accurately within 5% errors.
