In this paper, new exploration mobile robot is presented. This mobile robot, called Robhaz-6W, is able to overcome hazardous terrains, recognize three dimensional terrain information and generate a path toward the destination by itself. We develop the passive four bar linkage mechanism adoptable to such terrain without any active control and the real time stereo vision system for obstacle avoidance, a remote control and a path planning method. And the geometrical information is transmitted to the operator in the remote site via wireless LAN equipment. And finally, experimental results for the passive mechanism, the real time stereo vision system, the path planning are reported, which show the versatility of the proposed mobile robot system to carry out some tasks.

A key component for autonomous mobile robot is to localize ifself. In this paper we suggest a vision-based localization and compensation of robot's location using ultrasound. Mobile robot travels along wall and searches each feature in indoor environment and transformed absolute coordinates of actuality environment using these points and builds a map. And we obtain information of the environment because mobile robot travels along wall. Localzation search robot's location candidate point by ultrasound and decide position among candidate point by features matching.

A new remote control algorithm for a mobile robot is proposed, where a remote controller consists of a camera and inertial sensors. Initially the relative position and orientation of a robot is estimated by capturing four circle landmarks on the plate of the robot. When the remote controller moves to point to the destination, the camera pointing trajectory is estimated using an inertial navigation algorithm. The destination is transmitted wirelessly to the robot and then the robot is controlled to move to the destination. A quick movement of the remote controller is possible since the destination is estimated using inertial sensors. Also unlike the vision only control, the robot can be out of camera's range of view.

본 논문에서는 비전 시스템과 후각 센서를 이용하여 자율주행 이동로봇에 냄새 발생지 추적을 위한 기능을 구현하였다. 초기에 로봇에 부착된 후각 센서가 냄새를 탐지하지 못한 경우에는 비전 시스템을 이용하여 특정 지역 내를 운행을 하다가 시계 내의 한 물체에 접근하여 냄새를 방출하고 있는 지를 검사하게 된다. 만일 냄새를 방출하고 있다면 신경회로망을 이용한 냄새 구별 알고리즘을 이용하여 그 냄새가 찾고자 하는 것인지를 확인하게 된다. 실험을 위해 AMOR(Autonomous Mobile Olfactory Robot) 로봇을 구현하여 사용하였으며, 실험결과는 제안된 알고리즘이 냄새 발생지를 찾고 냄새를 구별해 내는데 효율성이 있음을 보여준다.

The safe navigation of a mobile robot requires the recognition of the environment in terms of vision processing. To be guided in the given path, the robot should acquire the information about where the wall and corridor are located. Also unexpected obstacles should be detected as rapid as possible for the safe obstacle avoidance. In the paper, we assume that the mobile robot should be navigated in the flat surface. In terms of this assumption we simplify the correspondence problem by the free navigation surface and matching features in that coordinate system. Basically, the vision processing system adopts line segment of edge as the feature. The extracted line segments of edge out of both image are matched in the free nevigation surface. According to the matching result, each line segment is labeled by the attributes regarding obstacle and free surface and the 3D shape of obstacle is interpreted. This proposed vision processing method is verified in terms of various simulations and experimentation using real images.

In this study, stereo vision system is applied to a mobile manipulator for effective tasks. The robot can recognize a target and compute the position of the target using a stereo vision system. While a monocular vision system needs properties such as geometric shape of a target, a stereo vision system enables the robot to find the position of a target without additional information. Many algorithms have been studied and developed for an object recognition. However, most of these approaches have a disadvantage of the complexity of computations and they are inadequate for real-time visual servoing. However, color information is useful for simple recognition in real-time visual servoing. In this paper, we refer to about object recognition using colors, stereo matching method, recovery of 3D space and the visual servoing.

This paper presents an algorithm that the mobile robot track accurately a moving object with information from a CCD camera mounted on mobile robot. Singular Value Decomposition is adapted to remove the measurement noise of a Raw data of CCD. The mobile robot estimate the trajectory using Kalman filter and track the path of a moving object with a servo motor. Computer simulation results are showed that the efficient tracking system for the mobile robot is designed properly.

As autonomous mobile robot become more widely used in industry, the importance of navigation system is rising, But eh primary method of locomotion is with wheels, which cause man problems in controlling tracked mobile robots. In this paper, we discuss the used navigation control of tracked mobile robots with multiple sensors. The multiple sensors are composed of ultrasonic wave sensors and vision sensors. Vision sensors gauge distance using a laser and create visual images, to estimate robot position. The 80196 is used at close range and the vision board is used at long range. Data is managed in the main PC and management is distributed to ever sensor. The controller employs fuzzy logic.

We describe a method for localizing a mobile robot in the working environment using a vision system and VRML. The robot identifies landmarks in the environment and carries out the self-positioning. The image-processing and neural network pattern matching technique are employed to recognize landmarks placed in a robot working environment. The robot self-positioning using vision system is based on the well-known localization algorithm. After self-positioning, 2D scene is overlaid with VRML scene. This paper describes how to realize the self-positioning and shows the result of overlaying between 2D scene and VRML scene. In addition we describe the advantage expected from overlapping both scenes.
