In this study, we present a multi-sensor module for snake robot searching survivors in a narrow space. To this end, we integrated five sensor systems by considering the opinions of the first responders: a gas sensor to detect CO₂ gases from the exhalation of survivors, a CMOS camera to provide the image of survivors, an IR camera to see in the dark & smoky environment, two microphones to detect the voice of survivors, and an IMU to recognize the approximate location and direction of the robot and survivors. Furthermore, we integrated a speaker into the sensor module system to provide a communication channel between the first responders and survivors. To integrated all these mechatronics systems in a small, compact snake head, we optimized the positions of the sensors and designed a stacked structure for the whole system. We also developed a user-friendly GUI to show the information from the proposed sensor systems visually. Experimental results verified the searching function of the proposed sensor module system.

뱀형 모듈라 로봇은 모듈을 일련의 형태로 연결하여 구성한 것으로, 다양한 환경에 대해서 강인성을 가지고 있고, 모듈 일부의 고장에도 이동할 수 있는 장점을 가진다. 그러나 이동 제어 방법이 어렵고, 아직까지 효율적이고 다양한 이동법의 개발이 미비한 편이다. 본 연구에서는 뱀형 로봇의 이동제어를 위하여 GA(Genetic Algorithm)기반의 위상생성 방식과 임의의 궤적 생성방식을 비교하고, 이를 확장하여 일부 모듈만의 선택에 따른 영향을 분석하기 위해서 GA를 통한 모듈 선택 실험을 수행하였다. KMC사의 뱀형 로봇을 대상으로 먼저 webots 시뮬레이터 상에서 모델링 및 시뮬레이션 환경을 구축하고, 위의 GA 기반 이동 생성 실험들을 수행하였다.

Modular snake-like robots are robust for failure and have flexible locomotions for obstacle environment than of walking robot. This requires an adaptation capability which is obtained from a learning approach, but has not been analysed as well. In order to investigate the property of adaptation of locomotion for different terrains, NEAT controllers are trained for a flat terrain and tested for obstacle terrains. The input and output characteristics of the adaptation for the neural network controller are analyzed for different terrains in frequency domain.

Modular snake-like robots are robust for failure and have flexible locomotion for environments, but are difficult to control. Various phase and evolutionary approaches for modular robots have been studied for many years, but there are few comparisons among these methods. In this paper, Phase, GAps, GA and GP approaches are implemented and compared for flat, stairs, and slope environments. In addition, simulations of the locomotion evolution for modular snake-like robot are executed in Webots environments.

Based on recent advances in technology, many robots are developed and they are used in a hazardous environment such as military operation, fire, and building collapse and so on. Among them, reconnaissance robot should be able to perform various missions which people can not do. So it needs the capability of moving with hiding its position on rough terrain, overcoming obstacles, and guaranteeing its efficiency of reconnaissance. For this reason there are in progress of researching biomimetic robots. Therefore in this paper we proposed robot mechanism, two modules based on the screw and wheel mechanism which mimic snake, and the spiral climbing method was considered for overcoming the situation when moving on the trees.

Human's brain action can divide by recognition and intelligence. recognition is sensing voice, image and smell and Intelligence is logical judgment, inference, decision. To this concept, Define function of cerebral cortex, and apply the result. Current expert system is lack, that reasoning by cerebral cortex and thalamus, hoppocampal and so on. In this paper, With human's brain action, wish to embody human's action artificially Embody brain mechanism using Modular Neural Network, Applied this result to snake robot.
