In this paper, steering systems for mobile robot with permanent magnet wheels are discussed. The mobile robot with permanent magnet wheels can have three different types of steering and driving configurations; two-wheels, three-wheels, four-wheels. By a Two-WD(Wheel Driving) system, driving and steering characteristics are controlled by ratio of each wheel speeds. Three-WD system is steered by a front wheel and driven by rear wheels. Four-WD system has better stability than two wheel system. Usually the permanent magnet wheel has nearly none slip. Thus turning radius of the mobile robot with three-WD and four-WD System will be increased and the steering and driving system will be complicated. To solve this problem, two magnet wheels with two dummy wheels are used in this study. fuming radius of the developed mobile robot is small and the structure of the robot is simple. It is possible to move forward, backward, to turn left and right, and to rotate freely with two-WD. This study proved that two-WD system is very suitable fur the mobile robot with permanent magnet wheels.

In this paper, we propose an implementation of a real-time operating system for the two-wheel mobile robot. With this implementation, we have the ability to control the complex embedded systems of the two-wheel mobile robot. The advantage of the real-time operating system is increasing the reliability and stability of the two-wheel mobile robot when they work in critical environments such as military and industrial applications. The real-time operating system which was ported to this implementation is open systems and the corresponding interfaces for automotive electronics (OSEK/VDX). It is known as the set of specifications on automotive operating systems, published by a consortium founded by the automotive industry. The mechanical design and kinematics of the two-wheel mobile robot are described in this paper. The contributions of this paper suggest a method for adapting and porting OSEK/VDX real-time operating system to the two-wheel mobile robot with the differential drive method, and we are also able to apply the real-time operating system to any complex embedded system easily.

This paper presents the neuro-fuzzy control method for balancing a two-wheel mobile robot. A two-wheel mobile robot is built for the experimental studies. On-line learning algorithm based on the back-propagation(BP) method is derived for the Takagi-Sugeno(T-S) neuro-fuzzy controller. The modified error is proposed to learn the B-P algorithm for the balancing control of a two-wheel mobile robot. The T-S controller is implemented on a DSP chip. Experimental studies of the balancing control performance are conducted. Balancing control performances with disturbance are also conducted and results are evaluated.

This paper presents a two-wheel balancing mobile robot with linear workspace extension structures. The two-wheel mobile robot has two linear motions at the waist and shoulder to have extended workspace. The linear motion of the waist and shoulder provides some structural advantages. A dynamic equation of the simplified robot system is derived. Simulation studies of the position control of the robot system are performed based on the dynamic equations. The dynamic relationship between a two-wheel mobile system and linear extension mechanism is observed by simulation studies.

In this paper, configuration control for the Horizontal Maintenance of the 2 wheel robot has been studied using ARS(Attitude Refrence System). The 2 wheel robot technique is getting attention and there have been many researches on the seg-way since the US. Using its 2 freedom, a 2 wheel robot can move in various modes and Our robot performs goal reaching ARS.2 wheel robot fall down to the forward or reverse direction to converge to the stable point. Kalman Filter is normally used for the algorithm and numerous research is progressing at the moment. To calculate the attitude in ARS using 2 axis gyro(roll, pitch) and 3 axis accelerometers (x, y, z). In this paper we present a two wheel robot system for an autonomous mobile robot. This paper realized the robot control method which is much simpler but able to get desired performance by using the ARS control.

이 논문에서는 모델 기반 설계에 근거한 이륜 도립진자 로봇의 제어이득을 설계하고 NXT 마인드스톰과 RobotC 언어를 이용하여 수업에 활용 가능한 로봇을 제작 및 실험한다. 이륜 도립진자 로봇은 NXT 마인드스톰, 서보 직류전동기, 자이로 센서, 가속도 센서로 구성된다. 직류전동기에 내장된 엔코더를 이용하여 바퀴의 회전각을 검출하며 이동평균을 이용하여 바퀴의 회전각속도를 계산한다. 자이로 센서는 몸체의 피치 각속도를 측정하며 가속도 센서는 몸체의 피치 각도를 측정한다. 자이로와 가속도의 센서 융합을 통해 몸체 각도를 계산한다. 제어기 이득 요소는 휠 각도, 휠 각속도, 몸체 피치 각도, 몸체 피치 각속도에 대한 가중치이다. 이들 제어이득의 변화에 따른 도립진자 로봇의 변화를 실험하며 유용성을 확인한다.

In this paper, a new onmidirectional robot with one spherical wheel is porposed. The peculiar structure of the proposed mobile robot makes it possible not only to move sideways but to be easy to implement. The wheel is derived by two stepping motors and equipped with 8-infrared sensors. To prove the validity of the proposed robot, the experiment of going through a way is performed.

This paper introduces several mobile robots developed by using LEGO MIDSTORM for experimental studies of robotics engineering education. The first mobile robot is the line tracer robot that tracks a line, which is a prototype of wheel-driven mobile robots. Ultra violet sensors are used to detect and follow the line. The second robot system is a two-wheel balancing robot that is somewhat nonlinear and complex. For the robot to balance, a gyro sensor is used to detect a balancing angle and PD control is used. The last robot system is a combined system of a line tracer and a two-wheel balancing robot. Sensor filtering and control algorithms are tested through experimental studies.

Open-loop position estimation methods are commonly used in mobile robot applications. Their strength lies in the speed and simplicity with which an estimated position is determined. However, these methods can lead to inaccurate or unreliable estimates. Two position estimation methods are developed in this paper, one using a single optical flow sensor and a second using two optical sensors. The first method can accurately estimate position under ideal conditions and also when wheel slip perpendicular to the axis of the wheel occurs. The second method can accurately estimate position even when wheel slip parallel to the axis of the wheel occurs. Location of the sensors is investigated in order to minimize errors caused by inaccurate sensor readings. Finally, a method is implemented and tested using a potential field based navigation scheme. Estimates of position were found to be as accurate as dead-reckoning in ideal conditions and much more accurate in cases where wheel slip occurs.

This paper proposes a new approach to the design of cruise control system of a mobile robot with two drive wheel. The proposed control scheme uses a Gaussian function as a unit function in the fuzzy neural network, and back propagation algorithm to train the fuzzy neural network controller in the framework of the specialized learning architecture. It is proposed a learning controller consisting of two neural network-fuzzy based on independent reasoning and a connection net with fixed weights to simply the neural networks-fuzzy. The performance of the proposed controller is shown by performing the computer simulation for trajectory tracking of the speed and azimuth of a mobile robot driven by two independent wheels.
