In this paper, a method for camera position estimation in gasher using elechoendoscopic image sequence is proposed. In orders to obtain proper image sequences, the gasser in divided into three sections. It Is presented thats camera position modeling for 3D information extvac lion and image distortion due to the endoscopic lenses is corrected. The feature points are represented with respect to the reference coordinate system below 10 percents error rate. The faster distortion correction algorithm is proposed in this paper. This algorithm uses error table which is faster than coordinate transform method using n -th order polynomials.

This paper presents neural network based position estimation method in slippery environment as an approach to solve one of problems which are engaged in dead reckoning method. Position estimator is composed of slip detector and linear velocity estimator. Both of them are based on the fact that dynamic characteristic of mobile robot in slippery environment is different from the case without slip. To find out the dynamic relation among driving torque, angular acceleration of driving wheel and linear acceleration of mobile robot, accelerometer is used for measuring acceleration of mobile robot and neural network is used for dynamic system identifier in slippery environment.

There are several potential error sources that can affect the estimation of the position of an object using combined vision and acceleration measurements. Two of the major sources, accelerometer dynamics and random noise in both sensor outputs, are considered. Using a second-order model, the errors introduced by the accelerometer dynamics are reduced by the smaller value of damping ratio and larger value of natural frequency. A Kalman filter approach was developed to minimize the influence of random errors on the position estimate. Experimental results for the end-point movement of a flexible beam confirmed the efficacy of the Kalman filter algorithm.

Generally estimation of driving direction uses the way which uses lane detection and vanishing point in autonomous-driving system. Especially we use Sub-window for decreasing Process time when we detect lane, but fixed sub-window can not detect lane because of some factors in road image. So we suggest algorithm using one-dimension line scan method to detect an exact position of lane.

This paper deals with the analysis of characteristics of position and speed estimator of an adaptive sensorless control algorithm for PMSM drives. The analysis shows that the back emf constant variation results in the position estimation error, but does not the speed estimation error. The simulation and experimental results are shown to verify the analysis result and the usefulness of the back emf constant estimator.

In this paper, it is proposed that an attitude and position estimation algorithm based on a stereo camera system for a helmet tracker. Stereo camera system consists of two CCD camera, a helmet, infrared LEDs and a frame grabber. Fifteen infrared LEDs are feature points which are used to determine the attitude and position of the helmet. These features are arranged in triangle pattern with different distance on the helmet. Vision-based the attitude and position algorithm consists of feature segmentation, projective reconstruction, model indexing and attitude estimation. In this paper, the attitude estimation algorithm using UQ (Unit Quaternion) is proposed. The UQ guarantee that the rotation matrix is a unitary matrix. The performance of presented algorithm is verified by simulation and experiment.

The position information of the rotor are required while the SRG(Switched Reluctance Generator) is drived. The position information is generally provided by shaft encoder or resolver. But it is weak in the dusty, high temperator and EMI environment. Therefore, It is required for the sensor to be eliminated from SRG. In this paper, a estimation algorithm for the rotor position of the SRG is introducted and a constant DC-link voltage is controled by PID controller. The estimation algorithm is imple--mened by using the instantaneous flux profile, and the initial position is estimated by injecting high frequency pulse voltage. It is proved that the rotor position is esti--mated very well by the exeriments.

When a mobile robot moves from one place to another, position error occurs due to the limit of accuracy of robot and the effect of environmental noise. In this paper. an accurate method of estimating the position and orientation of a mobile robot using the camera calibration is proposed. Kalman filter is used as the estimation algorithm. The uncertainty in the position of camera with repect to robot base frame is considered well as the position error of the robot. Besides developing the mathematical model for mobile robot calibration system, the effect of relative position between camera and calibration points is analyzed and the method to select the most accurate calibration points is also presented.

Open-loop position estimation methods are commonly used in mobile robot applications. Their strength lies in the speed and simplicity with which an estimated position is determined. However, these methods can lead to inaccurate or unreliable estimates. Two position estimation methods are developed in this paper, one using a single optical flow sensor and a second using two optical sensors. The first method can accurately estimate position under ideal conditions and also when wheel slip perpendicular to the axis of the wheel occurs. The second method can accurately estimate position even when wheel slip parallel to the axis of the wheel occurs. Location of the sensors is investigated in order to minimize errors caused by inaccurate sensor readings. Finally, a method is implemented and tested using a potential field based navigation scheme. Estimates of position were found to be as accurate as dead-reckoning in ideal conditions and much more accurate in cases where wheel slip occurs.

This paper describes a novel method of detecting excitation position in Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM) drive. Some strategics for position sensorless control methods of the SRM include the measurement of phase current. The principle of the rotor position estimation is based on the defection of phase current according to rotor position. This sensorless method is very simple to detect excitation position estimation and gives efficient control of drive system. The suggested method is verified by some simulations and experimental tests
