This paper present the optimal cleaning condition of the out-hull preprocessing robot by Taguchi method in design of experiments. A $L_8(2^4)$ orthogonal array is adopted to study the effect of adjustment parameters. The adjustment parameters consist of robot speed, motor torque, motor speed and tool angle. And the quality feature is selected as surface roughness of sheet metal. Taguchi analysis is performed in order to evaluate the effect of adjustment parameters of the quality feature of cleaning process by $Minitab^{(R)}$.

In this study, tele-robotics was researched to actualize robots in agriculture. The robot system consisted of a data collecting robot, several robots that performed their own agricultural operations, a server, client computers and networks between robots and computers. In this paper, as a first step, harvesting experiments were carried out. From the results, it was observed that the tele-robotics had feasibility to propel the robotization in agriculture. The tele-robotics has advantages not only that human workers are released from the severe working environment but also that the greenhouse can be monitored and controlled anytime and anywhere.

This study is to develop interactive program for work-cell layout of SACARA type robot by using PC. To make this program interactively, we made use of the software which has the function of menu, dialog box, and graphic. By using the mouse, we can progress this program quickly and easily. It has 2Y2 dimension and provides that one can layout elements (robot, peripheral device, and etc.), create work path, and calculate cycle time of working robot. By comparing with cycle times of any number of work-cell layout for same work, we can evaluate work-cell layout. Finally, we can select one work-cell layout to be considered optimal one which has the least cycle time.

We describe a method for localizing a mobile robot in its working environment using a vision system and Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML). The robot identifies landmarks in the environment, using image processing and neural network pattern matching techniques, and then its performs self-positioning with a vision system based on a well-known localization algorithm. After the self-positioning procedure, the 2-D scene of the vision is overlaid with the VRML scene. This paper describes how to realize the self-positioning, and shows the overlap between the 2-D and VRML scenes. The method successfully defines a robot's path.

This paper present a novel 6-axis robotic base platform with force/moment sensing. The robotic base platform is made up of six loadcells connecting the moving plate to the fixed plate by spherical joints at the both ends of loadcells. The statics relation is derived, the robotic base platform prototype and the loadcell measurement system are developed. The force/moment calibrations in joint and Cartesian spaces are performed. The algorithm to detect external force applied at a working robot is derived, and using a 6-DOF robot mounted on the robotic base platform, force/moment measurement experiments have been performed.

With the need for efficient maintenance technology to reduce maintenance costs for steel bridges, repainting robots are being developed to automate the work in narrow and poor bridge spaces. The repainting robot is equipped with a blasting module to remove paint layers and contaminants. This study developed a prototype monitoring module to be mounted on the repainting robot. The monitoring module analyzes the condition of the painting surface through a camera installed in the front, guides the direction of movement of the robot, and provides the operator with a video to check the working status after blasting through a camera installed in the back. Various image visibility enhancement technologies were applied to the monitoring module to overcome worksite challenges where incomplete lighting and dust occurs.

The Field Robot means the machinery applied for outdoor tasks in construction, agriculture and undersea etc. In this study, to field-robotize a hydraulic excavator that is mostly used in construction working, we developed an interfacing hardware part of stroke sensing cylinder using magnetic sensor and estimated its performance. It is illustrated by experiment that the proposed control system by stroke sensing cylinder gives good performances in the position control

A mixed IP formulation is presented which concurrently routes and sequences the tasks on the MRS, reflecting the flexible characteristics. As a preliminary work for the performance evaluation of the MRS, a two robot system working on independent tasks is studied. Models for three types of the system capable of simple error recovery function are established using queueing model, and performances are evaluated and analysed.
