세계적으로 물류 자동화 시장은 2026년까지 약 44조원으로 예상되며, 연평균 10.6%의 성장률을 기록할 것으로 예측된다. 특히 국내 시장은 2025년까지 연평균 성장률 11.5%로 1조원 이상으로 전망되고 있다. 2025년까지 물류 자동화 시장은 270억 달러로 급성장할 것으로 예상되며, 반도체 분야에서 로봇이 상품 입고, 보관, 상품 피킹, 분류, 출고 작업을 담당하는 트렌드가 강조된다. 본 논문은 반도체 물류 분야를 대상으로 작은 크기와 민첩성을 갖춘 로봇을 개발하여 작업 공간을 효율적으로 활용하고 인력을 최소화하려는 목적이다. 수직 및 수평 로봇은 효율적인 자동화 시스템을 제공하며, UI를 사용하여 AGV, 선반, 스카라 로봇을 하나의 통합 시스템으로 개발하고자 한다. 특히 코드 인식, 초음파 센서, 아두이노 MCU, 스카라 로봇, AGV 등을 활용한 로봇 시스템을 개발하여 반도체 물류 작업을 효율적으로 수행하고자 한다. 다양한 분야에서 활용 가능한 스카라 로봇을 개발하기 위해 마이크로 스텝과 풀리, 타이밍 벨트를 이용한 구동 방식 등을 채택한다. 반도체 물류 센터에서의 자동화는 물류 공간의 확대와 인건비 절감을 기대할 수 있으며, 로봇 및 드론을 활용하여 인건비 절감과 효율성 향상을 통해 기업 비용 절감에 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

Recently, a spherical pendulum attached to an end-effector of a robot manipulator has been frequently used for a test bed of residual vibration suppression control in a multi-dimensional motion. However, there was no automatic tracking system to detect the current bob position on-line, and there was inconvenience to not be able to store the bob position in real time and plot the trajectory. In this study, we developed a two-dimensional, real-time bob-detecting system using a digital USB camera, of which the key is hardware component design and software C programming for fast image processing and interfacing. The developed system was applied to residual vibration suppression control of a two-dimensional spherical pendulum that is attached at the end-effector of a two degree-of-freedom SCARA robot, and the effectiveness of the developed system has been demonstrated.

Neural networks are known as kinds of intelligent strategies since they have learning capability. There are various their applications from intelligent control fields; however, their applications have limits from the point that the stability of the intelligent control systems is not usually guaranteed. In this paper we propose a neuro-adaptive controller for robot manipulators using the radial basis function network(RBFN) that is a kind of a neural network. Adaptation laws for parameters of the RBFN are developed based on the Lyapunov stability theory to guarantee the stability of the overall control scheme. Filtered tracking errors between the actual outputs and desired outputs are discussed in the sense of the uniformly ultimately boundedness(UUB). Additionally, it is also shown that the parameters of the RBFN are bounded. Experimental results for a SCARA-type robot manipulator show that the proposed neuro-adaptive controller is adaptable to the environment changes and is more robust than the conventional PID controller and the neuro-controller based on the multilayer perceptron.

The wheelchair mechanism for a car that is proposed in this study primarily consists of a transfer mechanism and storage mechanism. The wheelchair transfer mechanism consists of a manipulator installed in the roof of a car, and performs the function of transferring the wheelchair from the driver's seat to the trunk. The wheelchair storage mechanism consists of a lifting hoist installed in the trunk of car, and performs the function of storing the transferred wheelchair in the trunk and safely fastening it in place. This study analyzed and reviewed various manipulators, including a vertical type, Scara type, and telescopic type, with the goal of selecting the best type of manipulator for the wheelchair transfer mechanism. The telescopic type was selected and applied because of its good load support and storage capabilities. In addition, with regard to the wheelchair storage mechanism, a slide hoist type that used a slide rail and lift wire and a rotating link hoist type that used a rotating mechanism consisting of a worm gear and link were analyzed and reviewed. The slide hoist type was selected and applied because it had an advantage in relation to trunk space utilization. This study proposed a wheelchair transfer mechanism for a car to support a conventional wheelchair user's movements, and in order to conform to the structure of a domestic welfare car for the disabled.
