In this paper, we propose a remote controller for robot manipulator using local area network(LAN) and internet. To do this, we develope a server-client system as used in the network field. The client system is in any computer in remote place for the user to log-in the server and manage the remote factory. the server system is a computer which controls the manipulator and waits for a access from client. The server system consists of several control algorithms which is needed to drive the manipulator and networking system to transfer images that shows states of the work place, and to receive a Tmp data to run the manipulator The client system consists of 3D(dimension) graphic user interface for teaching and off-line task like simulation, external hardware interface which makes it easier for the user to teach. Using this server-client system, the user who is on remote place can edit the work schedule of manipulator, then run the machine after it is transferred and monitor the results of the task.

The TFT-LCD is extensively used from a small watch to a large TV display, and the demand is increasing rapidly. The size of R-LCD glass plate becomes more bigger, and the thickness become more thinner with high demands. As a result natural frequency of the TFT-LCD glass plate becomes more lower. The TFT-LCD glass plate will be moved by robot arm and may receive effect of vibration that occur at transfer. Natural frequency of the TFT-LCD glass plate is increased or decrease according to location that robot arm fixs glass plate. Purpose of a this study is finding support location that optimize the first natural frequency of TFT-LCD glass plate. The size optimization method of ANSYS 8.0 is used as the optimization tool search on the optimal support location of TFT-LCD glass plate. The considered number of support point is from 4 to 9.

Recently, since there are several problems in space, the infra-structure and the facilities in the contiguity of the existing harbors due to the trend of enlarging the container capacity of the large container vessel, a special floating platform named as the Mobile Harbor has been proposed conceptually as an effective solution of those problems. Two kinds of hull shapes, a conventional mono-hull type and a catamaran type, are proposed as midway feeders to transfer containers to the harbor on land from a large container ship on near shore. In this study, the motion response and mooring analysis are carried out for comparing the global performance of two types of Mobile Harbor. Robot arm mooring facility specially is devised and newly tried to use for the safe fixation of a large container ship and the Mobile Harbor on near shore. It would be expected for this comparison study to give a guideline to design the efficient hull form for a midway loader.

Frequent occurrences of a fire cause tremendous loss of human lives and their property. Recently, in order to cope with such catastrophic accidents, researches on fire-fighting robots are carried out in developed countries. Under the dangerous situations, it is sometimes impossible for fire-fighting men to access the firing place because of explosive materials, smoke, high temperature and so on. In such an environment, fire-fighting robots can be useful to extinguish the fire. It is usually very dangerous place where fire-fighting robots operate. Hence, these robots should be controlled by remote users who are for away from the firing place exploiting remote communication systems. This paper considers the communication systems between fire-fighting robots and remote users. The communication systems consist of two parts; digital packet communication systems and analog image communication systems. Digital packet communication systems transfer data packets in order to control fire-fighting robots and to check the state of the fire-fighting robots. Remote users watch the video around the fire-fighting robots by exploiting the analog image communication systems. In the future, the more prosperous the commercial communication network systems will be, the more evolved the communication systems for fire-fighting robots are.

In this paper, describe the automatic climbing wheelchair system use an articulated crawler mobile robot. This wheelchair system(call system) is composed of sensor detecting part and wireless communication part with PC. The sensor parts are consisted of sloping sensor and ultrasonic sensor part. The sloping sensor measures the sloping angle of system, and the ultrasonic sensor measures the distance of system's front wheel center from stair. PC will generate the operation data to climb up the stair using the measured data and make primitives for the system. At firsts This system transfer from sensor data to the PC. PC calculate the operation data to climb up the stair from the internal algorithm. We simulated the system in various stair angle slope($25^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$), and tested it on the real staircase with width 37cm, highlt 18cm, Angle $26^{\circ}$ . There were $0.350^{\circ}$ - $1.060^{\circ}$ Angle errors while climbing because adapted sensor has a precision $0.35^{\circ}$ in resolution. Finally, We implemented the sensor detecting part and the wireless communication park and practiced our system in 4cm/sec speed.

In this paper, a new haptic device is proposed for the teleoperation, which can recognize the invisible environment of a mobile robot. With this new device, it is possible for the user to identify the location of an obstacle and to avoid it. The haptic device has been attached on the top of a joystick so that the user can remotely control the mobile robot to avoid the obstacles which are recognized by the ultrasonic sensors. Also, the invisible environment is recognized more accurately overlapping the data from the ultrasonic sensors. There are five vibration motors in the haptic device to indicate the direction of the obstacle. So the direction of the obstacle can be recognized by the vibration at the finger on each vibration motor. For various situations and surrounding environments, experiments are performed using fuzzy controller and overlapping ultrasonic sensors. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed haptic joystick.

It was investigated thermal performances on two array types of a serial circulation and a two-way parallel circulation for six water-cooled cold plates covered with non-metallic material (polycarbonate, PC) to reduce weight of the cooling devices for humanoid robot cooling. Six cold plates attached on $10{\times}10\;mm^2$ copper base : $0.5{\times}0.5\;mm^2$ pin-finned surfaces of 1.5 mm high with 0.5 mm array spacing, was mounted on six copper heating blocks with isothermal conditions of $50{\sim}90^{\circ}C$, respectively. In order to compare thermal characteristics according to two circulation types, the surface temperatures of heating blocks and the cooling water temperatures at inlets and outlets of cold plates were measured. From the results, it was found that a two-way parallel circulation was better performance than a serial circulation in terms of total thermal resistance, total heat transfer rate, and surface temperature rises from $1^{st}$ heating block to last one for six multiple cold plates.

As the use of robots in service area increases, research has been conducted to replace human tasks in daily life with robots. Among them, this study focuses on the tidy-up task on a desk using a robot arm. The order in which tidy-up motions are carried out has a great impact on the success rate of the task. Therefore, in this study, a neural network-based method for determining the priority of the tidy-up motions from the input image is proposed. Reinforcement learning, which shows good performance in the sequential decision-making process, is used to train such a task planner. The training process is conducted in a virtual tidy-up environment that is configured the same as the actual tidy-up environment. To transfer the learning results in the virtual environment to the actual environment, the input image is preprocessed into a segmented image. In addition, the use of a neural network that excludes unnecessary tidy-up motions from the priority during the tidy-up operation increases the success rate of the task planner. Experiments were conducted in the real world to verify the proposed task planning method.

본 논문의 내용은 기존의 차륜식 로봇과는 차별화된 전-방향 구동이 가능한 모듈 개발을 통하여, 기존 모듈의 이동로봇이 가지는 단점인 측면주행성능 저하, 단순 작업주행 경로, 회전-직진 반복 주행으로 인한 불필요한 주행소요시간의 증대 등의 단점을 극복할 수 있을 것이다. 볼-벨런싱 로봇을 구동하기 위한 전-방향 구형휠 구동모듈은 3개의 로터캐스터를 이용한 로봇의 전-방향으로 구동하기 위한 동력전달 메커니즘과 주행을 위한 알고리즘 개발이 요구된다. 3DoF(축) 전-방향 이동 알고리즘이 내장된 드라이버가 모듈에 내장되고, 주행 방향 및 속도를 위한 3DoF(축)의 구동 모터 모듈이 장착된다. 이동 메커니즘으로는 각 구동바퀴의 회전 벡터 합에 따른다. 두 개 또는 세 개의 구동바퀴의 회전과 벡터 합에 따른 다양한 이동방향을 만들어 낼 수 있다. 각 구동바퀴의 회전 벡터장의 여하에 따라 다른 방향으로도 이동이 가능하다. 전-방향 이동을 위한 보다 혁신적인 전-방향 구형휠 구동모듈이 개발되면, 이동로봇의 구동부에 사용되어 로봇의 성능을 기술적으로 좀 더 향상시킬 수 있으며, 구동모듈이 적용된 전-방향로봇 플랫폼을 통하여 기존 차륜식 로봇의 경우 각종 환경에 대한 저항성으로 인해 연속 직진 성능이 저하되는 단점을 극복할 수 있어서 미주, 유럽과 같은 환경에서 적용될 수 있는 청소로봇, 이동로봇뿐만 아니라 전-방향 주행 기능이 요구되는 안내로봇, 탑승형 로봇, 이동수단 등에 필수적인 기술이 될 것이고 지능형서비스로봇 시장과 미래형 자동차시장의 확대에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
