This study proposes a new approach to control a trajectory control of vertical type articulated robot arm with six revolution joints by computed torque method for manufacturing process automation. The proposed control scheme takes advantage of the properties of the fuzzy controllers. The proposed method is suitable to control of the trajectory and path control in cartesian space for vertical type articulated robot manipulator for forging manufacturing process automation. The results is illustrated that the proposed fuzzy computed torque controller is more stable and robust than the conventional computed torque controller. This study is included with an analytical methodology of inverse kinematic computation for 6 DOF manipulators. And an intelligent PID based on feed forward fuzzy control structure is applied to control the working path control with disturbances caused by uncertainty parameters of the manipulator dynamic model. Lastly, the validity of proposed is verified by simulations and experiments.

In robot industries, the request to obtain a high efficiency and accurately controlled electric actuator has been growing. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of electric actuators is significantly affected by the presence of factors such as nonlinearity, uncertain disturbance and unknown dynamics. Therefore, it makes difficult to derive an exact mathematical model of the controlled system. In this paper, a new method for easily recognizing and regenerating robot motions used in small size industries such as painting and welding parts is proposed. Instead of modeling the entire dynamic motion of the robot system, this method is based on the procedure of modeling and controller design for every arm individually. The proposed method does not require complex model and control system such that it gives easy working process to the small size industries. Based on this fact, in this research, the model and PID controller for every arm of the 3 DOF robot system are obtained separately. Some experimental results are implemented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A small guard robot working indoors or outdoors can be used to report various information on its environment to an operator. The guard robot should be small-sized and lightweight to increase its portability. In addition, it should be able to overcome a relatively high obstacle to cope with various situations. To satisfy these requirements, this paper presents a small robot equipped with a novel hybrid wheel and track mechanism that can select wheels or tracks depending on the situation. The robot folds the tracks into the body in the wheel mode and only wheels are active with the tracks immobilized, which results in the fast moving speed. In the track mode, the tracks are extended to keep in contact with the ground. Furthermore, this research proposes the belt length maintenance mechanism by which the belt length is kept constant in either the wheel or track mode. Various experiments demonstrate that the proposed robot can move fast by using wheels on the smooth terrain and overcome obstacles by using tracks on the rough terrain.

This paper presents a method to optimize motion planning for industrial manipulators with redundancy. For optimal motion planning, first of all, particular inverse kinematic solution is needed to improve efficiency for manipulators with redundancy working in various environments. In this paper, we propose three kinds of methods for solving inverse kinematics problems; numerical and combined approach. Also, we introduce methods for optimal motion planning using potential function considering the order of priority. For efficient movement in industrial settings, this paper presents methods to plan motions by considering colliding obstacles, joint limits, and interference between whole arms. To confirm improved performance of robot applying the proposed algorithms, we use two kinds of robots with redundancy. One is a single arm robot with 7DOF and another is a dual arm robot with 15DOF which consists of left arm, right arm with each 7DOF, and a torso part with 1DOF. The proposed algorithms are verified through several numerical examples as well as by real implementation in robot controllers.

This paper presents the study in the development of optimal working method for an outer-hull preprocessing robot using a quaternion. The out-hull preprocessing robot consists of feathering and cleaning parts. This robot should be controlled correctly for feathering work because it is to be worked on a curved plate that can result in the errors of orientation. In this paper, we propose a control algorithm between given two orientations of the out-hull preprocessing robot by using a quaternion with spherical linear interpolation. The proposed control algorithm is shown to be effective in terms of motor angles and torques when compared to a conventional Euler angle interpolation, by using both $MATLAB^{\circledR}$ and $VisualNastran4D^{\circledR}$.

수중에서 로봇으로 사석 고르기 작업을 실시할 경우 로봇 주위의 지형 정보를 실시간으로 제공해야 원격조종이 가능하다. 현 위치로부터 주변지형의 높낮이를 보여줘야 운전자가 작업 계획을 수립하고, 전복과 같은 사고도 예방할 수 있다. 지금까지 지형인식은 멀티 빔 소나에 의해 이뤄졌는데 이는 작업 전후의 품질을 평가하는 용도만 사용되었지 원격조종에서 필요한 실시간 정보로는 사용될 수 없었다. 본 연구는 수중 사석 고르기 작업을 위한 실시간 지형인식 방법을 개발한다. 버킷이 지면을 누를 때 전달되는 힘을 측정해 접촉여부를 판단하고, 실린더의 길이를 읽어 접촉위치를 계산한다. 버킷의 위치제어를 위해 가변 뱅뱅제어 알고리즘을 적용하고 숙련된 굴삭기 운전자의 작업패턴을 프로그램화해 지형인식, 긁기, 밀기, 전진 등의 작업을 자동으로 수행하도록 한다. 개발된 방법은 로봇 몸체로부터 버킷의 거리에 따라 3차원 격자 지형을 상대적으로 보여줌으로써 작업자가 쉽게 지형을 인식하고 지형에 따라 작업계획을 세우도록 한다.

Automation of welding process in shipyards is ultimately necessary, since the welding site is spatially enclosed by floors and girders, and therefore welding operators are exposed to hostile working conditions. To solve this problem, a welding mobile robot that can navigate autonomously within the enclosure has been developed. To achieve the welding task in the closed space, the robotic welding system needs a sensor system for the working environment recognition and the weld seam tracking, and a specially designed environment recognition strategy. In this paper, a three-dimensional laser vision system is developed based on the optical triangulation technology in order to provide robots with 3D work environmental map. Using this sensor system, a spatial filter based on neural network technology is designed for extracting the center of laser stripe, and evaluated in various situations. An environment modeling algorithm structure is proposed and tested, which is composed of the laser scanning module for 3D voxel modeling and the plane reconstruction module for mobile robot localization. Finally, an environmental recognition strategy for welding mobile robot is developed in order to recognize the work environments efficiently. The design of the sensor system, the algorithm for sensing the partially structured environment with plane segments, and the recognition strategy and tactics for sensing the work environment are described and discussed with a series of experiments in detail.

In this research paper, suggest method of generate same bead as an actual measurement data in virtual welding conditions, exploit morphology information of the bead that acquired through robot welding. It has many multiple risk factors to Beginners welding training, by we make possible to train welding in virtual reality, we can reduce welding training risk and welding material to exploit bead visualization algorithm that we suggest so it will be expected to achieve educational, environmental and economical effect. The proposed method is acquire data to each case performing robot welding by set the voltage, current, working angle, process angle, speed and arc length of welding condition value. As Welding condition value is most important thing in decide bead form, we would selected one of baseline each item and then acquired metal followed another factors change. Welding type is FCAW, SMAW and TIG. When welding trainee perform the training, it's difficult to save all of changed information into database likewise working angle, process angle, speed and arc length. So not saving data into database are applying the method to infer the form of bead using a neural network algorithm. The way of bead's visualization is applying the spline algorithm. To accurately represent Morphological information of the bead, requires much of morphological information, so it can occur problem to save into database that is why we using the spline algorithm. By applying the spline algorithm, it can make simplified data and generate accurate bead shape. Through the research paper, the shape of bead generated by the virtual reality was able to improve the accuracy when compared using the form of bead generated by the robot welding to using the morphological information of the bead generated through the robot welding. By express the accurate shape of bead and so can reduce the difference of the actual welding training and virtual welding, it was confirmed that it can be performed safety and high effective virtual welding education.
