An unmanned surveillance robot consists of a machine gun, a laser receiver, a thermal imager, a color CCD camera, and a laser illuminator. It has two axis control systems for elevation and azimuth. Because the current robot system is mounded at a fixed post to take care of surveillance tasks, it is necessary to modify such a surveillance robot to be installed on an UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) system in order to watch blind areas. Thus, it is required to have a stabilization system to compensate the disturbance from the UGV. In this paper, a simulation based design scheme has been adopted to develop a mobile surveillance robot. The 3D CAD geometry model has first been produced by using Pro-Engineer. The required pan and tilt motor capacities have been analyzed using ADAMS inverse dynamics analysis. A target tracking and stabilization control algorithm of the mobile surveillance robot has been developed in order to compensate the motion of the vehicle which will experience the rough terrain. To test the performance of the stabilization control system of the robot, ADAMS/simulink co-simulations has been carried out.

Recently, various inpipe inspection robots are developed and its effective values are increased in industrial use. However, it is so difficult to make a inpipe inspection robot system which has flexible mobility and accuracy of inspection in pipelines. Especially, it is very important to know the exact crack position. In this paper, we are to present a lately developed inpipe inspection robot system which can resolve the above Problems. The robot is configured as an articulated structure like a snake. Two active driving vehicles are located in front and rear of the inspection robot respectively and passive modules such as a nondestructive testing module and a control module are chained between the active vehicles. Special feature of the robot system is a ground interface, which is able to show informations of robot and pipelines. By using this, so called virtual map in this paper, user is able to know the pipelines'feature and crack position.

A network-based robot [1] is a robot that explores service servers in the network environment for analyzing sensor data and making decision. Since network-based robot architecture was proposed, it's possible to reduce costs of robots. We hope robots would be all around at home environment. Therefore, normal users who are not experts need to be able to control those robots by using easy commands. We developed a scripting language, named CCSLR, to help users and developers who control various robots in ubiquitous environment. We focused on how to design the common language for various robots and how to translate a CCSLR script into a sequence of low-level commands of the target robot. In this paper, we propose scripting methods, with three layers. The CCSLR system reads the profile information from the knowledge representation database. Users don't have to know all about kinematical and mechanical details of a robot. Then again, the CCSLR system will use the profile information to translate the script into separated executable library commands. The CCSLR system manages robot's changing state every time a robot executes a command.

A QRT(Quad-Rotor Type) hovering robot system is developed for quick detection and observation of the circumstances under calamity environment such as indoor fire spots. The UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is equipped with four propellers driven by each electric motor, an embedded controller using a DSP, INS(Inertial Navigation System) using 3-axis rate gyros, a CCD camera with wireless communication transmitter for observation, and an ultrasonic range sensor for height control. The developed hovering robot shows stable flying performances under the adoption of RIC(Robust Internal-loop Compensator) based disturbance compensation and the vision based localization method. The UAV can also avoid obstacles using eight IR and four ultrasonic range sensors. The VTOL(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) flying object flies into indoor fire spots and sends the images captured by the CCD camera to the operator. This kind of small-sized UAV can be widely used in various calamity observation fields without danger of human beings under harmful environment.

Aim Robots are able to increase safety for pharmacy staff as separating from toxicity of anti-cancer drugs. For patient safety, it would provide right dose of the drugs. Additionally, it can reduce price of the drugs. Therefore, in this study, a novel compounding anticancer drugs robot system (Dupalro) was developed. Methods We used the robot system, Motoman dual-arm robot from YASKAWA, Japan and medications which are adapted for the robot were constructed. In order to develop a process of compounding anticancer drugs, information about five medications that are required to make anticancer drugs in hospitals was used. Results System for the five types of medications was constructed, and relating procedures for anticancer drugs compounding robot were developed. Conclusion Dupalro successfully was able to not only provide incremental safety and efficiency for both patients and pharmacy staff, but also decrease price of anticancer drugs.

This paper presents details on a tube inspection robotic system and a positioning method of the robot for a steam generator (SG) in nuclear power plants (NPPs). The robotic system is separated into three parts for easy handling, which reduces the radiation exposure during installation. The system has a supporting leg to increase the rigidity of the robot base. Since there are several thousands of tubes to be inspected inside a SG, it is very important to position the tool of the robot at the right tubes even if the robot base is positioned inaccurately during the installation. In order to obtain absolute accuracy of a position, the robot kinematics was mathematically modeled with the modified DH(Denavit-Hartenberg) model and calibrated on site using tube holes as calibration points. To tune the PID gains of a commercial motor driver systematically, the time delay control (TDC) based gain tuning method was adopted. To verify the performance of the robotic system, experiments on a Framatomes 51B Model type SG mockup were undertaken.

본 논문에서는 물류회사에서 수작업으로 이루어지던 물류 배달 구분 작업을 자동화하기 위한 로봇 제어 정보 관리 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 로봇제어 정보 관리시스템은 3D 영상인식장치로부터 소포의 가로, 세로, 높이, 집는 윗면의 형태 등 소포 형상정보와 무게, 놓여 진 위치, 부대 정보를 기록한 바코드 등의 소포 상황 정보를 넘겨받아서 로봇 매니퓰레이터의 픽업 제어정보와 드롭 제어정보를 생성하여 로봇제어정보를 보내준다. 로봇 매니퓰레이터는 물류 정보에 따른 픽업제어 정보와 드롭 제어정보를 넘겨받아 소포 픽업과 배달 위치에 따른 파레트에 해당물류를 드롭 할 수 있게 된다. 제안된 물류배달을 위한 로봇 제어 정보 관리 시스템은 수작업으로 처리되었던 물류배달 순서 구분 작업을 자동화함으로써 물류 배달에 있어 시간과 비용을 절감시키고 산업재해를 예방하는데 크게 기여하게 될 것이다.
