In industrial fields, human works are being replaced by robots. However, as the use of robots is limited in the process industry where they are operated fixedly, humanoid robots with wide applications need to be developed. Currently a great deal of research is being conducted on humanoid robots with the object of replacing humans in the workplace. However, because of the lack of relevant hardware and difficulty in mechanical parts, only very simple and limited progress is being made. In an effort to overcome these limitations, the purpose of the present study is to develop a kinematical mechanism and a controller. To this end, master arms with 3 degrees-of-freedom for the shoulders and the arms were composed which were able to reproduce human-like motions by simulating the characteristics of joint variables and the trajectory of the end-effector.

This paper deals with the global dynamic behavior of multiple autonomous mobile robots with suggested navigation strategies within unbounded and bounded spatial domain. We derive some navigation strategies of robots wirh complete detectability with finite range to reach their goal states without collision which is motivated by Coulomb's law regarding repulsive and attractive forces between electrical charges. An analysis of the dynamic behavior of the interacting robots with the suggested navigation strategies under the assumption that communication is not permissible between robots is made and some examples are illustrated by computer simulation. The convergence of robot motions to their goal states under certain conditions is established by considering their global dynamic behavior even when some objects are close to their goal points.

Brushless DC motors are widely used in many industrial fields as an actuator of robot and driving power motors of electrical vehicle. In this paper adaptive fuzzy sliding mode scheme is developed for velocity control of brushless DC motor. The proposed scheme does not require an accurate dynamic model. yet it guarantees asymptotic trajectory tracking despite torque variations. Numerical simulation and DSP-based experimental works for velocity control of brushless DC motor are carried out.

By the development of recent technology, a new variant of rotorcrafts having four rotors start drawing attention from aerial-robotics engineers more than before. Its potential spans from just being control device test bed to performing difficult task such as carrying surveillance device to unreachable places. In this regards, modeling a quad-rotor is significant in analyzing its dynamic behavior and in synthesizing control system for such a vehicle. This paper summarizes the modeling of a mini quad-rotor aerial vehicle. A first principle approach is considered for deriving the model based on Euler-Newton equations of motion. The result of the modeling is a simulation platform that is expected to acceptably predict the dynamic behavior of the quad-rotor in various flight conditions. Linear models associated with different flight condition can be extracted for the purpose of control synthesis.

The neural network MRAC system is presented. The purpose of this paper is applied to a plant that is to be controlled in a strongly nonlinear environment. The proposed system has a learning and adaptive ability in the varying environment by using the back-propagation learning algorithm based on Lyapunov stability theory. N.N. regulator is a part of overall system and is guaranteed to be stable in initial stage. Nonlinear terms of the varying mass, colilori, centifugal, and gravity are compensated for by feedforward N.N. regulator. And the feedback controller (adaptive mechanism) works to eliminate errors of position, velocity which the feedforward controller cannot compensate for. Finally, the proposed system will be demonstrated by simulation of a two d.o.f robot manipulator.

Robotic manipulators have become increasingly important in the field of flexible automation. High speed and high-precision trajectory tracking are indispensable capabilities for their versatile application. The need to meet demanding control requirement in increasingly complex dynamical control systems under significant uncertainties, leads toward design of intelligent manipulation robots. This paper presents a new approach to the design of neural control system using digital signal processors in order to improve the precision and robustness. The TMS32OC31 is used in implementing real time neural control to provide an enhanced motion control for robotic manipulators. In this control scheme, the networks introduced are neural nets with dynamic neurons, whose dynamics are distributed over all the, network nodes. The nets are trained by the distributed dynamic back propagation algorithm. The proposed neural network control scheme is simple in structure, fast in computation, and suitable for implementation of real-time, control. Performance of the neural controller is illustrated by simulation and experimental results for a SCARA robot.

A new algorithm for planning a collision free path is developed based on linear parametric curve. A collision-free path is viewed as a connected space curve in which the path consists of two straight curve connecting start to target point. A single intermediate connection point is considered in this paper and is used to manipulate the shape of path by organizing the control point in polar coordinate (.theta.,.rho.). The algorithm checks interference with obstacles, defined as GM (Geometry Mapping), and maps obstacles in Euclidean Space into images in CPS (Connection Point Space). The GM for all obstacles produces overlapping images of obstacle in CPS. The clear area of CPS that is not occupied by obstacle images represents collision-free paths in Euclidean Space. Any points from the clear area of CPS is a candidate for a collision-free path. A simulation of GM for number of cases are carried out and results are presented including mapped images of GM and performances of algorithm.

In this paper, an approach to dynamic systems control is addressed based on exploiting the potential features of the new nonlinear neural oscillator. Neural oscillators have recently enabled robots to exhibit natural dynamics using their robustness and entrainment properties. To technically accomplish this objective, the neural oscillator should be connected to the robot joints under the sensory feedback. This also requires the neural oscillator to adapt to the non-periodic nature of arbitrary input patterns. However, even in the most widely-used Matsuoka oscillator, when an unknown quasi-periodic or non-periodic signal is applied, its output signal is not always closely entrained. Therefore, current neural oscillators may not be applied to the precise control of the dynamic systems response. We illustrate the enhanced entrainment properties of the new neural oscillator by numerical simulation and show the possibility for implementation to control a variety of dynamic systems. It is verified that the oscillator can produce rhythmic signals for generating actuator signals which can be naturally modified by incorporating sensory feedback to adapt to outer circumstances.

Since the flexible joint robots with motor dynamics are represented by the fifth-order nonlinear sγstem, it is difficult and complex to design the controller for electrically driven flexible-joint (EDFJ) robots. In this paper, we propose a simple adaptive control method to solve this problem. It is assumed that the model uncertainties of the robots dynamics, joint flexibility, and motor dynamics are unknown. For the simple control design, the dynamic surface design method is applied, and all uncertainties in the robot and motor dynamics are compensated by using the adaptive function approximation technique. It is proved that all signals in the controlled closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded. Simulation results for three-link EDFJ manipulators are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control system.
