Genetic algorithm(GA) is useful to find optimal solution without any special mathematical modeling. This study presents to search optimal path of Autonomous Mobile Robot(AMR) by using GA without encoding and decoding procedure. Therefore, this paper shows that the proposed algorithm using GA can reduce the computation time to search the optimal path.

The most important thing for navigation of a mobile robot is to find the most suitable path and avoid the obstacles in the static and dynamic environment. This paper presents a method to search the optimal path in start space extended to time domain with considering a velocity and a direction of moving obstacles. A modified version of $A^*$ algorithm has been applied for path planning in this work and proposed a method of path search to avoid a collision with moving obstacle in space-tim domain with a velocity and an orientation of obstacles. The velocity and the direction for moving obstacle are assumed as linear form. The simulation result shows that a mobile robot navigates safely among moving obstacles of constant linear velocity. This work can be applied for not only a moving robot but also a legged humanoid robot and all fields where the path planning is required.

Evolution Strategy is used as an effective search algorithm in optimization problems and Sliding Mode Control is well known as a robust control algorithm. In this paper, we propose a Sliding Mode Control Method for robot manipulator using Evolution Strategy. Evolution Strategy is used to estimate Sliding Mode Control Parameters such as sliding surface gradient, continuous function boundary layer, unknown plant parameters and switching gain. Experimental results show the proposed control scheme has accurate and robust performances with effective search ability.

고열과 다량의 연기, 유독가스, 방사능 등을 수반하는 사고 현장에서 소방관을 대신하여 시야확보가 가능하고 화염으로 인한 고열을 극복하며 탐색 및 구조활동을 수행할 수 있는 3종의 특수한 정찰로봇이 최근 개발되었다. 이러한 로봇은 내열성능과 다양한 장애물 극복성능이 있어야 하고 화재진압성능과 탐색성능도 갖추어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 특수재난지역 정찰로봇의 다양한 성능시험을 통해 실용성을 검증하고자 하였다. 시험결과 소형 및 중형 로봇은 $100{\sim}200^{\circ}C$의 주위환경에서, 소방관탑승형 로봇은 $500^{\circ}C$의 환경에서도 30분 이상 활동이 가능한 것으로 나타났고, 특히 소방관 탑승형 로봇은 A 10 단위 화재모형을 3분 이내에 소화하여 화재진압성능도 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 3종 로봇 모두 다양한 장애물 극복성능과 현장운용성능이 양호한 것으로 확인되어 특수재난현장에서의 활약이 기대된다.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm for the automatic registration of two rigid parts using multiple 3D sensor systems on a robot. Four sets of structured laser stripe system consisted of a camera and a visible laser stripe is used for the acquisition of 3D information. Detailed procedures including extrinsic calibration among four 3D sensor systems and hand/eye calibration of 3D sensing system on robot arm are presented. We find a best pose using search-based pose estimation algorithm where cost function is proposed by reflecting geometric constraints between sensor systems and target objects. A pose with minimum gap and height difference is found by greedy search. Experimental result using demo system shows the robustness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.

To monitor the environment and determine the source of a pollutant gradient using a multiple robot swarm, we propose a hybrid algorithm that combines two bio-inspired algorithms mimicking chemotaxis and pheromones of bacteria. The algorithm is implemented in virtual robot agents in a simulator to evaluate their feasibility and efficiency in gradient maps with different sizes. Simulation results show that the chemotaxis controller guided robot agents to the locations with higher pollutant concentrations, while the pheromone marked in a virtual field increased the efficiency of the search by reducing the visiting redundancy. The number of steps required to reach the target point did not increase proportionally as the map size increased, but were less than those in the linear whole-map search method. Furthermore, the robot agents could function with simple sensor composition, minimum information about the map, and low calculation capacity.

교육용로봇시장의 발전과 함께 이용자들의 요구사항들이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 기존에는 이용자들이 원하는 제품이기 보다는 technical push 형태의 제품 개발이 진행되어 왔다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 교육용 로봇 이용자들의 특성과 Kano 모형을 활용하여 수요자들의 요구사항을 파악하여 교육용 로봇 기능을 도출함으로써 로봇시장을 창출하는데 기반이 되는 자료를 제시하고자 한다. 수요자들이 요구하는 기능으로는 학생 원격 통제 기능, 인터넷 검색 기능, 교육 콘텐츠 검색 기능, 학습 진도 관리 기능은 제공될 경우 호감이 상승하는 매력적 평가 속성으로 분류되었다.

Robot-assisted rehabilitation therapy has been used to increase physical function in post-stroke patients. The aim of this meta-analysis was to identify whether robot-assisted gait training can improve patients' functional abilities. A comprehensive search was performed of PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), Academic Search Premier (ASP), ScienceDirect, Korean Studies Information Service System (KISS), Research Information Sharing Service (RISS), Korea National Library, and the Korean Medical Database up to April, 2014. Fifteen eligible studies researched the effects of robot-assisted gait training to a control group. All outcome measures were classified by International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) domains (body function and structures, activity, and participation) and were pooled for calculating the effect size. The overall effect size of the robot-assisted gait training was .356 [95% confidence interval (CI): .186~.526]. When the effect was compared by the type of electromechanical robot, Gait Trainer (GT) (.471, 95% CI: .320~.621) showed more effective than Lokomat (.169, 95% CI: .063~.275). In addition, acute stroke patients showed more improvement than others. Although robot-assisted gait training may improve function, but there is no scientific evidence about the appropriate treatment time for one session or the appropriate duration of treatment. Additional researchers are needed to include more well-designed trials in order to resolve these uncertainties.

In this paper, an improved method of environment map building and a region search algorithm for mobile robot are presented. For the environment map building of mobile robot, measurement data of ultrasonic sensors and certainty grid representation is usually used. In this case, inaccuracies due to the uncertainty of ultrasonic data are included in the map. In order to solve this problem, an environment map building method using a Bayesian model was proposed previously[5]. In this study, we present an improved method of probability map building that uses infrared sensors and shift division Gaussian probability distribution with the existing Bayesian update method using ultrasonic sensors. Also, a region search algorithm for ...

이 논문은 모바일 로봇이 고정 장애물 또는 움직이는 장애물이 존재하는 환경에서 장애물을 회피하며 운행될 수 있는 제어 알고리즘을 연구하였다. 이 제어 알고리즘은 $D^*$ 알고리즘과, 충돌 위험도 퍼지로직, 이동로봇의 행동결정 퍼지로직을 사용하여 전역경로계획과 지역경로계획을 수행한다. $D^*$ 알고리즘에는 로봇이 이동하는 2 차원 공간을 정방형 격자 분활하여 적용한다. 이 알고리즘은 파이썬 프로그래밍 언어와 이동로봇의 운동방정식을 사용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 알고리즘을 적용하여 로봇이 이동하는 장애물을 피하거나 모르는 고정 장애물을 피하면서 원하는 위치로 이동하는 것을 볼 수 있다.
