In this research, we propose a path-planning algorithm for an autonomous mobile robot using geographical information, under the condition that the robot moves in unknown environment. All image inputted by camera at every sampling time are analyzed and geographical elements are recognized, and the geographical information is embedded in environmental map. The geographical information was transformed into 1-dimensional evaluation value that expressed the difficulty of movement for the robot. The robot goes toward the goal searching for path that minimizes the evaluation value at every sampling time. Then, the path is updated by integrating the exploited information and the prediction on unexploited environment. We used a sensor fusion method for improving the mobile robot dead reckoning accuracy. The experiment results that confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm on the robot's reaching the goal successfully using geographical information are presented.

This paper describes a fuzzy steering controller for an autonomous mobile robot with MR sensor. Using the magnetic field(Bx, By, Bz) obtained from the MR sensor, we designed fuzzy controller for driving on the road center. Fuzzy rule base was built to magnetic field(Bx, By, Bz). To develop an autonomous mobile robot simulation program, we have done modeling MR sensor, dynamic model of mobile robot and coordinate transformation. A computer simulation of the robot including mobile robot dynamics and steering was used to verify the steering performance of the mobile robot controller using the fuzzy logic Good results were obtained by computer simulation. So, we confirmed the robustness of the proposed fuzzy controller by computer ...

This paper presents an implementation of speech recognition system for teaching an autonomous mobile robot. The use of human speech as the teaching method provides more convenient user-interface for the mobile robot. In this study, for easily teaching the mobile robot, a study on the autonomous mobile robot with the function of speech recognition is tried. In speech recognition system, a speech recognition algorithm using HMM(Hidden Markov Model) is presented to recognize Korean word. Filter-bank analysis model is used to extract of features as the spectral analysis method. A recognized word is converted to command for the control of robot navigation.

This paper proposes a generation method of a navigation guidance direction and a fuzzy controller to achieve the autonomous navigation of a mobile robot using a particle swarm optimization(PSO) scheme in unknown environments. The proposed navigation guidance direction is the direction that leads a mobile robot to arrive a target point simultaneously with avoiding obstacles efficiently according to the surrounding local informations. It is generated by selecting the most suitable direction of the many directions in the surrounding environment using a particle swarm optimization scheme. Also, a robot can reach a target point with avoiding the various obstacles by controlling the robot so that it can move from its current orientation to the navigation guidance direction using the proposed fuzzy controller. Simulation results are presented to show the feasibility and validity of the proposed robot navigation scheme.

The trends of recent developed a pet robot which interacts with people are increased gradually. There are a few pet robots that are a robot dog, robot cat, and robot fish. The pet robot is featured that it is possible to sympathize and give pleasure to human. The pet robots express delight, sorrow, surprise, and hunger through the artificial intelligence. Previously, the pet robot has to exchange the battery when it is exhausted. Commercialized robots have a self-recharging function, which express hunger. Robot dog AIBO, SONY in Japan, checks the battery for expressing hunger. They find an energy station for recharge. While operation time of AIBO is 1 hour 30 minutes, recharging time is 2 hours. Recharging time is longer than operation time. During the recharge, they don't operate. We obtain a motivation for eating the battery when find the problem. In this paper, introduce an Autonomous Eating Pet Robot and propose a design for realization. The Autonomous Eating Pet Robot has a function that is the most basic instinct that is finding a food and evacuating.

In this paper, we propose a new approach to intelligent motion and autonomous maneuvering of mobile robots using hybrid system. In high Level, the discrete states are defined by using the sensor-based search windows and the reference motions of a mobile robot as a low vevel are specified in the abstracted motions, The mobile robots can perform both the motion planning and autonomous maneuvering with obstacle avoidance in indoor navigation problem. Simulation and experimental results show that hybrid system approach is an effective method for the autonomous maneuvering in indoor environments.

최근 국내외에서 무인 자동차용 로봇 개발에 관한 많은 관심과 개발 경쟁이 한층 더해가고 있다. 그러나 무인 자동차용 로봇을 효과적으로 제어하기 위한 표준화된 아키텍쳐의 부재로 개발 기간의 장기화 되고, 다른 무인 자동차용 로봇과 호환성이 저하되는 어려움이 많았다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 무인 자동차용 로봇 표준 아키텍쳐인 JAUS 기반으로 모바일 로봇을 원격 제어하는 시스템을 구현하였다. 구현된 모바일 로봇은 무선 LAN UDP/IP 프로토콜 기반으로 JAUS 명령 메시지를 사용해서 원격제어시스템과 통신한다. 본 연구의 유효성은 구현 로봇의 주행 및 장애물인식 성능에 대한 실험적 결과를 통해 보여진다.

This paper aims to add the autonomous driving capability to the inverted pendulum system which maintains the inverted pendulum upright stably. For the autonomous driving from the starting position to the goal position, the motion control algorithm is proposed based on the dynamics of the inverted pendulum robot. To derive the dynamic model of the inverted pendulum robot, a three dimensional robot coordinate is defined and the velocity jacobian is newly derived. With the analysis of the wheel rolling motion, the dynamics of inverted pendulum robot are derived and used for the motion control algorithm. To maintain the balance of the inverted pendulum, the autonomous driving strategy is derived step by step considering the acceleration, constant velocity and deceleration states simultaneously. The driving experiments of inverted pendulum robot are performed while maintaining the balance of the inverted pendulum. For reading the positions of the inverted pendulum and wheels, only the encoders are utilized to make the system cheap and reliable. Even though the derived dynamics works for the slanted surface, the experiments are carried out in the standardized flat ground using the inverted pendulum robot in this paper. The experimental data for the wheel rolling and inverted pendulum motions are demonstrated for the straight line motion from a start position to the goal position.

본 논문은 실내 이동로봇의 자율주행 방법을 적용한 결과를 기술한다. 구체적으로 지도생성, 위치추정, 장애물 회피, 경로계획에 대해서 설명한다. 기하학적 지도는 위치추정과 경로계획에 이용된다. 위치 추정을 위해서 지도 정보를 이용하여 센서 데이터를 계산하고 이를 실제 센서 데이터와 비교한다. 위치 추정에는 몬테 카를로 위치 추정 방법을 사용한다. 인공 전위계를 사용하여 장애물로부터의 척력과 목표 위치로의 인력을 구하여 장물을 피한다. 경로계획을 위해 다익스트라 알고리즘을 이용하여 로봇의 출발 위치에서 목표 위치까지의 최단거리 경로를 구한다. 이러한 방법들이 통합하여 자율 주행 방법을 실제로 구현하여 실험하였다. 실제 실험을 통하여 제안한 방법이 로봇을 안전하게 자율주행하게 함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that realizes cooperative behavior by construction of autonomous mobile robot system. Each robot is able to sense other robots and obstacles, and it has the rule of behavior to achieve the goal of the system. In this paper, to improve performance of the whole system, we use Genetic Programming based on Natural Selection. Genetic Programming's chromosome is a program of tree structure and it's major operators are crossover and mutation. We verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme from the several examples.
