An engine for marine propulsion and power generation consists of several cylinder liner-piston sets. And the oil groove is on the cylinder liner inside wall for the lubrication between a piston and cylinder. The machining process of oil groove has been carried by manual work so far, because of the diversity of the shape. Recently, we developed an automatic grinding robot system for oil groove machining of engine cylinder liners. It can covers various types of oil grooves and adjust its position by itself. The grinding robot system consists of a robot, a machining tool head, sensors and a control system. The robot automatically recognizes the cylinder liner's inside configuration by using a laser displacement sensor and a vision sensor after the cylinder liner is placed on a set-up equipment.

The mechanism design of the interactive emotional robot has been carried out. The two-wheeled inverted pendulum type mechanism was adopted to improve the mobility and make the innate clumsy monoaxial bicycle motion. Even though the system is unstable in itself, it is expected for the robot to move freely in a plane, keeping the upright position only with two wheels. Two motors attached on head can make 4 motion sets, and two motors on the wheels can make 8. Therefore, 32 independent motion sets can be achieved from the robot to communicate the emotions with humans. The motion's equation of the robot was derived based on nonholonomic dynamics, and the necessary power to the wheel's rotational axis was found by simulation.

기존 이동로봇의 활발한 연구와 더불어 다양한 형태의 이동로봇이 등장하였다. 이에 본 논문에서는 8축으로 구성된, 총 16 Degree Of Freedom을 가지는 다 관절 뱀 로봇을 제작하였다. 뱀 로봇은 지면과의 진행 마찰력을 고려하여 무동력 바퀴를 사용하였다. 또한 PC Cam과 초음파 센서를 사용하여 각 관절이 움직일 수 있는 Joint Angle을 나타내기 위하여 Target의 색상과 거리를 입력으로 하였다. 뱀 로봇은 머리부분, 몸통 그리고 꼬리부분으로 나뉘어 진행하는 방식을 가지며 PC Cam 을 통해 화면에 보여지는 움직이는 특정 목표물에 대하여 진행을 하며, 진행 중 움직이거나 고정되어있는 Obstacle이 포착될 경우 충돌회피를 통하여 Target을 추종하는 방식을 실험적으로 보이고자 한다.

To verify performance or conduct experiments using actual robots, a lot of costs are needed such as robot hardware, experimental space, and time. Therefore, a simulation environment is an essential tool in robotics research. In this paper, we develop the HUMIC simulator using ROS and Gazebo. HUMIC is a humanoid robot, which is developed by HCIR Lab., for human-robot interaction and an upper body of HUMIC is similar to humans with a head, body, waist, arms, and hands. The Gazebo is an open-source three-dimensional robot simulator that provides the ability to simulate robots accurately and efficiently along with simulated indoor and outdoor environments. We develop a GUI for users to easily simulate and manipulate the HUMIC simulator. Moreover, we open the developed HUMIC simulator and GUI for other robotics researchers to use. We test the developed HUMIC simulator for object detection and reinforcement learning-based navigation tasks successfully. As a further study, we plan to develop robot behavior intelligence based on reinforcement learning algorithms using the developed simulator, and then apply it to the real robot.

This paper proposes the methodology in image processing algorithm that estimates the pose of the pipe crawling robot. The pipe crawling robots are usually equipped with a lighting device and a camera on its head for monitoring and inspection purpose. The proposed methodology is using these devices without introducing the extra sensors and is based on the fact that the position and the intensity of the reflected light varies with the robot posture. The algorithm is divided into two parts, estimating the translation and rotation angle of the camera, followed by the actual pose estimation of the robot. To investigate the performance of the algorithm, the algorithm is applied to a sewage maintenance robot.

We made a human-sensitive motion interpretation to the interactive emotional robot, "Rai" of which the mechanism design was carried out and completed. Kinematic system of this emotional robot mainly consists of a body and a head. The body contains the total control units , the communicat ion modules and also two wheels and motors for main driving which make kinds of motions 1 ike the inverted pendulum. This robot system is designed under the concept on the human-friendly mot ion and react ion wi th humans around living room and office environments. Therefore, various scenarios are constructed in order to enable the emotional expressions at those places. Especially, we interpreted technically-possible motions while accommodating to the scenarios constructed. And we performed some experiments to make sere of the possibility of the motion interpretation.

본 논문에서는 키 42cm, 몸무게 1.5kg으로 총 16 자유도를 가진 소형 인간형 로봇의 개발에 관하여 소개한다. 인간형 로봇은 많은 자유도를 가지기 때문에 개발을 쉽게 하기 위하여 제어가 간단한 RC 서보 모터를 구동기로 사용한다. 개발된 로봇은 또한 머리에 소형 디지털 카메라를 장착하고 있어서 주변의 환경에 대한 영상 데이터를 원격지에 있는 호스트 컴퓨터에 무선 모뎀을 통하여 전송할 수 있다. 개발된 로봇은 직진 보행, 회전 보행 등의 평지 보행뿐만 아니라 계단 보행도 수행할 수 있다. 로봇의 움직임을 생성하고 사전에 모의 실험해 볼 수 있는 그래픽 시뮬레이션프로그램과 경로 생성 프로그램은 호스트 컴퓨터에서 구동된다. 실험을 통하여 개발된 로봇이 계단 보행을 수행할 수 있음을 보인다.

This paper presents a recognition performance of VOR (Vestibular-Ocular Reflex) based vision tracking system for mobile robot. The VOR is a reflex eye movement which, during head movements, produces an eye movement in the direction opposite to the head movement, thus maintaining the image of interested objects placed on the center of retina. We applied this physiological concept to the vision tracking system for high recognition performance in mobile environments. The proposed method was implemented in a vision tracking system consisting of a motion sensor module and an actuation module with vision sensor. We tested the developed system on an x/y stage and a rate table for linear motion and angular motion, respectively. The experimental results show that the recognition rates of the VOR-based method are three times more than non-VOR conventional vision system, which is mainly due to the fact that VOR-based vision tracking system has the line of sight of vision system to be fixed to the object, eventually reducing the blurring effect of images under the dynamic environment. It suggests that the VOR concept proposed in this paper can be applied efficiently to the vision tracking system for mobile robot.
