  • In this paper, we optimize distributed autonomous robotic system based on artificial immune system. Immune system has B-cell and T-cell that are two major types of lymphocytes. B-cells take part in humoral responses that secrete antibodies and T-cells take part in cellular responses that stimulate or suppress cells connected to the immune system. They have communicating network equation, which have many parameters. The distributed autonomous robotics system based on this artificial immune system is modeled on the B-cells and T-cells system. So performance of system is influenced by parameters of immune network equation. We can improve performance of Distributed autonomous robotics system based on artificial immune system.

  • In this paper, a modelling methodology for a robotic workcell is proposed and compared with the conventional Petri nets model. Also, a method for managing the cell operation is described through the knowledge base. The knowledge bases for state transition and assembly job information are obtained from the state transition map(STM) and the assembly job tree(AJT), respectively. Using the knowledge base, the system structure is discussed in both managing the cell operation and evaluating the various performance. Finally, a simulation algorithm is presented with the simulation results to show the effectiveness of the proposed modelling approach.

  • We have developed a robotic system for an automated parallel cell cultivation process that enables screening of induction parameters for the soluble expression of recombinant protein. The system is designed for parallelized and simultaneous cultivation of up to 24 different types of cells or a single type of cell at 24 different conditions. Twenty-four culture vessels of about 200 ml are arranged in four columns${\times}$six rows. The system is equipped with four independent thermostated waterbaths, each of which accommodates six culture vessels. A two-channel liquid handler is attached in order to distribute medium from the reservoir to the culture vessels, to transfer seed or other reagents, and to take an aliquot from the growing cells. Cells in each vessel are agitated and aerated by sparging filtered air. We tested the system by growing Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) cells harboring a plasmid for a model protein, and used it in optimizing protein expression conditions by varying the induction temperature and the inducer concentration. The results revealed the usefulness of our custom-made cell cultivation robot in screening optimal conditions for the expression of soluble proteins.

  • 체감형 게임에서는 사용자의 몸 자체가 인터페이스로써 컨트롤러의 기능을 가지며 사용자는 자신의 행동의 결과를 체화된(embodied) 경험으로써 피드백 받는다. 이는 관객이 적극적으로 참여하는 상호작용 미디어 아트 설치미술의 경우와 같다. 컴퓨터 게임의 대부분을 차지하는 비디오 게임과는 차별적으로 실물의 움직임으로 피드백 되는 게임이 고려될 수 있으며 그 기초는 로보틱 아트에서 찾을 수 있다. 본 논문은 게임과 상호작용 미디어 아트의 접점을 체감형 게임으로 전제하여 하나의 상호작용 로봇 설치물 사례를 제시하고 실험하며 분석한다. 본 설치물은 관객의 위치나 움직임에 의하여 운동하고, 로봇의 운동에 따라 현의 유효길이가 조절됨으로써 소리에 변화를 주는 하나의 학기이다. 로봇은 다중 셀 거리 센서를 이용하여 관객을 추적하고 관객은 일정한 거리를 두고 악기와 상호작용하므로 악기와 관객 간에는 관계적 긴장이 자리할 공연적 내러티브 공간이 형성된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 상호작용 로봇 설치미술이 상호작용에 기초한 엔터테인먼트적 요소를 지닌 체감형 게임의 원형으로 제시될 수 있음을 몇 가지 사례를 들어 토론한다.

  • The Automation and Control Group at the University of Brasilia is developing an automatic welding station based on an industrial robot and a controllable welding machine. Several techniques were applied in order to improve the quality of the welding joints. This paper deals with the implementation of a laser-based computer vision system to guide the robotic manipulator during the welding process. Currently the robot is taught to follow a prescribed trajectory which is recorded a repeated over and over relying on the repeatability specification from the robot manufacturer. The objective of the computer vision system is monitoring the actual trajectory followed by the welding torch and to evaluate deviations from the desired trajectory. The position errors then being transfer to a control algorithm in order to actuate the robotic manipulator and cancel the trajectory errors. The computer vision systems consists of a CCD camera attached to the welding torch, a laser emitting diode circuit, a PC computer-based frame grabber card, and a computer vision algorithm. The laser circuit establishes a sharp luminous reference line which images are captured through the video camera. The raw image data is then digitized and stored in the frame grabber card for further processing using specifically written algorithms. These image-processing algorithms give the actual welding path, the relative position between the pieces and the required corrections. Two case studies are considered: the first is the joining of two flat metal pieces; and the second is concerned with joining a cylindrical-shape piece to a flat surface. An implementation of this computer vision system using parallel computer processing is being studied.

  • 본 논문에서는 면역 시스템에 기반한 자율분산로봇 시스템의 협조 제어 및 군행동 전략의 결정 방법을 제안한다. 면역 시스템은 생체의 자기보호 및 유지시스템이다. 면역 시스템의 유용한 성질은 동적으로 변하는 환경에서 최적의 군행동을 결정하는 문제에 적용 가능하다. 면역 시스템을 자율분산로봇 시스템에 적용하기 위하여 로봇은 B-세포로 환경조건은 항원으로 행동 전략은 항체로 제어파라미터는 T-세포로 각각 모델링 하였다, 환경(항원)변화가 감지되면 각 로봇은 적절한 행동전략(항체)을취한다. 이행동전략은 다른 로봇과의 통신에 의하여 자극 또는 억제을 받는다.(면역 네트워크) 최정적으로 많은 자극을 받은 전략이 군행동 전략으로 채택된다. 이 제어방법은 클론선택과 면역네트워크 가설에 기반을 둔것으로서 최적의 군행동 전략을 결정하는데 이용된다. 또한 제어 파라미터로서 T-세포 모델을 추가함으로서 동적인 환경에서 로봇의 적응능력이 향상되었다.

  • Germinatin and early growth of tobacco seedlings in trays containing many cells is increasing in popularity . Since 100 % germination is not likely , a major problem is to locate and replace the content of those cells which contain either no seedling or a stunted seedling with a plug containing a viable seedling. Empty cells and seedlings of poor quality take up valuable space in a greenhouse. They may also cause difficulty when transplanting seedlings into the field. Robotic technology, including the implementation of computer vision, appears to be an attractive alternative to the use of manual labor for accomplishing this task. Operating AGBOT, short for Agricultural ROBOT, involved four steps : (1) capturing the image, (2) processing the image, (3) moving the manipulator, (4) working the gripper. This research seedlings within a cell-grown environment. the configuration of the cell-grown seedling environment dictated the design of a Cartesian robot suitable for working ov r a flat plane. Experiments of AGBOT performance in transferring large seedlings produced trays which were more than 98% survived one week after transfer. In general , the system generated much better than expected.

  • In this paper, we propose a method of cooperative control(T-cell modeling) and selection of group behavior strategy(B-cell modeling) based on immune system in distributed autonomous robotic system(DARS). Immune system is living body's self-protection and self-maintenance system. Thus these features can be applied to decision making of optimal swarm behavior in dynamically changing environment. For the purpose of applying immune system to DARS, a robot is regarded as a B cell, each environmental condition as an antigen, a behavior strategy as an antibody and control parameter as a T-call respectively. The executing process of proposed method is as follows. When the environmental condition changes, a robot selects an appropriate behavior strategy. And its behavior strategy is stimulated and suppressed by other robot using communication. Finally much stimulated strategy is adopted as a swarm behavior strategy. This control scheme is based of clonal selection and idiotopic network hypothesis. And it is used for decision making of optimal swarm strategy. By T-cell modeling, adaptation ability of robot is enhanced in dynamic environments.

  • DUPIC (Direct Use of spent PWR fuel In CANDU) fuel cycle technology is being developed at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). All the DUPIC fuel fabrication processes are remotely conducted in the completely shielded M6 hot-cell located in the Irradiated Material Examination Facility (IMEF) at KAERI. Undesirable products such as spent nuclear fuel powder debris and contaminated wastes are inevitably created during the DUPIC nuclear fuel fabrication processes.(omitted)
