  • The MPI CyberMotion Simulator provides a unique motion platform, as it features an anthropomorphic robot with a large workspace, combined with an actuated cabin and a linear track for lateral movement. This paper introduces the simulator as a tool for studying human perception, and compares its characteristics to conventional Stewart platforms. Furthermore, an experimental evaluation is presented in which multimodal human control behavior is studied by identifying the visual and vestibular responses of participants in a roll-lateral helicopter hover task. The results show that the simulator motion allows participants to increase tracking performance by changing their control strategy, shifting from reliance on visual error perception to reliance on simulator motion cues. The MPI CyberMotion Simulator has proven to be a state-of-the-art motion simulator for psychophysical research to study humans with various experimental paradigms, ranging from passive perception experiments to active control tasks, such as driving a car or flying a helicopter.

  • Social needs of smart work have been increasing throughout the worldwide and several developed countries have been developing enabled framework for smart work's coming proceed for a long time. The government is leading the smart work in Korea to devise a more efficient and competitiveness. Design of public collaboration solution has been proposed to provide the integration among a variety of smart environments and the interoperability between end-to-end. This paper takes a objective to develop a universal solution applicable to between traditional PC and mobile devices, such as a home station, and to built smart workplace linking workplace, outside space and the home. In particular, this paper offer entry-level advantages of public collaboration solution in conjunction with collaboration platform and phone platform owned by mobile communication platform company are mutually interfaced and aimed at small and medium-sized businesses and public.
