  • According to abrupt decrese in number of farmer and ageing society, there has been a need for development of low cost agricultural robot. In this paper, a H/W and S/W platform of caterpillar type agricultural chemical dusting robot based on XP embedded system were described. The developed agricultural robot has 2 d.o.f caterpillar type driving wheel and 2 d.o.f chemical dusting spray mechanical system. The H/W platform of the agricultural robot consists of robot controller, remote controller and sensor controller. In S/W platform, 5 processes work concurrently, which are task manager, TCP-IP communication process, localization process, wheel control, and sensor control process. This robot platform has been developed for chemical dusting robot. We proved this system's validity through field test.

  • Recently, the awareness of S/W education, which was confined to the profession, is changing due to the changing industrial environment based on ICT technology World main countries invest competitively in S/W education and the target age group is getting lower Among them, the unplugged coding method using the robot platform is known as one of the most effective S/W training methods targeting the elementary age by the intuitive coding method and the robot platform feedback. However, the unplugged coding method using the robot platform has a disadvantage that it can not configure various interfaces for complicated coding due to limitations of H/W. In this paper, we have proposed an unplugged coding system which can input various commands for robot control by IR remote control as an interface and minute signals using robot sensor.

  • The realization of high quality robot control needs the improvement of computing speed of controller. In this paper, parallel processing method is considered for this purpose. A S/W algorithm for task scheduling is developed first, and then, an appropriate H/W structure is proposed. This scheme is applied to calculate inverse kinematics of PUMA robot. The simulation results show that the computing time when using three 8086/87's is reduced to 4.23 msec compared to 10 msec in case using one 8086/87.

  • An underwater robot S/W framework consists of various sub-modules such as sensory data processing module, thruster control module, cognition module and behavior control module. Performance of a robot is determined by not only the efficiency of algorithms used but also effectiveness of their implementations. One most important factor of the effective implementation is the efficiency of data sharing module, as it transmits signals and data between the sub-modules and thus is directly related to the cycles of sensing and control The ideal data sharing module enables immediate access to any data source irrespective of system configurations. In reality, however, there are lots of obstacles including limitation of processing capacity of source modules, delay over network, and scheduling latency of operating systems. The paper proposes a new data sharing architecture and programming models to effectively handle such obstacles in implementation of underwater S/W framework on a small scale distributed computing system.

  • For the robot manipulator in performing precision tasks, it is indispensable that the robot utilize the various sensors for intelligence. In this paper, the hybrid position/force control method is implemented with a force/torque sensor, two personal computers, and a PUMA 560 manipulator. Two application S/W packages for edge following and peg-in-hole tasks are developed by the proposed force control algorithm. The related experimental results are then presented and discussed,

  • Robot software components can be categorized into two types; the pure S/W component and the H/W-related one. Since interface testing of the robot software component is the labour-intensive and complicated work, an effective automated testing tool is necessary. Especially it is difficult to test all types of H/W-related components because it is hard work to prepare all H/W modules related to them. This paper proposes a new simulation-based interface testing automation tool(SITAT) which generates automatically test cases for interface testing of the robot software component and executes the interface test with the generated test cases where the simulator is used for simulation of the activity of a H/W module instead of the real H/W module. This paper verifies the effectiveness of the suggested SITAT with testing of the real H/W-related robot software component.

  • Recently, the robot control systems are required to be more flexible and intelligent in order to execute more complex and delicate tasks. As an approach to such system, a PC-based robot control system is presented in this paper. The axis controllers are independently designed for each joint of robot manipulator and are supervised by a personal computer. Therefore, the almost system program including the control algorithm can be easily developed and modified in the PC's environment. This proposed control system was successfully applied to 4 axis SCARA-type robot and the associated S/W modules were developed. We can construct sensory robot systems by simply connecting the sensing devices to the PC and the study on this now being progressed.
