robots determine the location of the other robot using wireless sensors. Use it to decide how to move his. And go to any location, will make shape of column and line, circle. In this paper, we discuss problem in circle formation enclosing target which moves. It is method about enclosed invader in circle formation based on mutual localization of swarm robot without infrastructure. Therefore, use trilateration that do not need to know the value of the coordinates of reference points. So, Specify enclosed point for the number of robots base on between the relative position of the robot in the coordinate system. And particle filter is proposed to improve the accuracy of the location.

본 논문에서는 선도-추종자 로봇의 대형을 유동적으로 변형하며 장애물을 효과적으로 회피하는 방법을 제안한다. 로봇이 장애물을 회피함에 있어서 고정된 대형으로 이동하는데 어려운 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기위해 장애물 회피시 선도로봇의 방향각과 위치, 선도로봇과 추종자 로봇의 거리를 이용하여 대형을 유동적으로 변형하여 장애물과의 충돌을 회피하는 방법을 사용하고 로봇의 경로계획을 위하여 포텐셜 필드 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 Matlab을 이용한 모의실험을 통하여 제안된 방법의 성능을 확인하였다.

This paper propose a method of mobile robot path planning for prevention of slip using potential field. The path planning minimizes robot slip for the potential field method to smooth a potential barrier. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, we performed simulations on path planning with C-obstacles in the workspace. The results show that the proposed method considerably improves on the performance of the general potential field method.

PSP를 이용한 의자로봇 시스템은 거동이 불편한 노약자의 이동을 돕기 위하여 제작된 지능형 이동로봇이다. 원하는 곳으로 이동이 가능한 지능형 로봇은 안정적인 움직임을 위해 실시간 장애물 회피 및 적절한 경로 계획이 필요하다. 본 논문에서 구현한 의자로봇은 IR센서와 초음파 센서를 이용하여 환경 정보를 얻어오고, 환경 지도 작성 및 경로 계획을 통해 목표 지점으로 이동하도록 하였다. 또 구동부의 부드러운 움직임을 위하여 PID제어기를 사용하였다. 서비스 로봇은 개발에 용이하고 사용자가 쉽게 제어 할 수 있는 인터페이스 장치가 필요하다. PSP는 여러 개의 버튼을 가졌고, 디스플레이를 위한 LCD 있다. 또 무선랜 환경에서 사용할 수 있기 때문에 PSP를 이용한 제어 방법을 구현하였다. PSP를 이용한 제어 방법에는 두 가지 모드가 존재하는데 하나는 의자 로봇의 지능을 이용한 이동방법이고 또 하나는 사용자가 직접 제어하는 방법이다. 위의 두 가지 방법으로 실내 환경에서 주행 테스트를 했으며, 성공적으로 동작함을 확인하였다.

Household service robots should be able to provide their users with a variety of temporal reasoning services. In this paper, we propose an effective way of developing such temporal reasoning services using a domain-independent AI planner. Developing temporal reasoning services with a domain-independent AI planner, we have to address both the knowledge engineering problem of how to represent various real-world temporal constraints in a planning domain definition language, and the system design problem of how to realize the interface between the AI planner and the service consumer. In this paper, we introduce an example scenario and a set of typical temporal constraints for a household service robot, and then present how to represent them in the standard planning domain definition language. We also explain how to implement a service agent based on an AI planner in order to develop and provide new services efficiently.

This paper describes a global path planning method and path optimization algorithm for autonomous mobile robot based on the virtual elastic force in a grid map environment. A goal of a path planning is information for a robot to go its goal point from start point by a effective way. The AStar algorithm is a well-known method for a grid based path planning. This paper suggest a path optimization method by a virtual elastic force and compare the algorithm with a orignal AStar method. The virtual elastic force makes a shorter and smoother path. It is a profitable algorithm to optimize a path in a grid environment.

This paper presents a new algorithm of path planning and obstacle avoidance for autonomous mobile robots with vision system that is working in unknown environments. Distance variation technique is used in path planning to approach the target and avoid obstacles in work space as well . In this approach, the Sobel operator is employed to detect edges of obstacles and the distances between the mobile robot and the obstacles are measured. Fuzzy rules are used for trajectory planning and obstacle avoidance to improve the autonomy of mobile robots. It is shown by computer simulation that the proposed algorithm is superior to the vector field approach which sometimes traps the mobile robot into some local obstacles. An autonomous mobile robot with single vision is developed for experiments. We also show that the developed mobile robot with the proposed algorithm is navigating very well in complex unknown environments.

For the autonomous movement, the optimal path planning connecting between current and target positions is essential, and the optimal path of mobile robot means obstacle-free and the shortest length path to a target position. Many actual mobile robots should move without any information of surrounded obstacles. Thus, this paper suggests new methods of path planning and obstacle avoidment, suitable in unknown environments. This method of path planning always tracks the local target expected as the optimal one, and the result of continuous tracking becomes the first generated moving path. This path, however, do not regard the collision with obstacles. Thus, this paper suggests a new method of obstacle avoidance resembled with the Potential Field method. Finally, a simulation confirms the performance and correctness of the path planning and obstacle avoidance, suggested in this paper.

이동성에 nonholonomic 제약을 받는 차륜 구동 이동 로봇의 불확실한 환경에서의 자율 주행 제어기를 제안하였다. 전체 시스템은 on-line으로 지역경로 계획을 하는 planner 부분과 차륜 구동 이동 로봇의 nonholonomic 제약을 극복하면서 계획된 지역 경로를 충실히 추종하기 위한 제어기 부분의 두 부분으로 구성하였다. Planner는 빠른 응답을 생성하고, 전역적인 정보를 사용하지 않기 위하여 반사적인 제어 방식에 의한 경로 생성 방식을 채택하였고, 제어기 부분은 비선형 posture feedback stabilizer로 설계하였다. 제안된 시스템은 단순한 형태의 제어 방식으로 완전한 자율적인 판단에 의한 장애물 회피와 목표 지점으로의 수렴 능력을 보여 준다. 본 시스템의 단순하면서도 효과적인 자율주행 능력은 반사제어 방식의 장점과 feedback 제어기의 증명된 안정성에서 기인한다. 시뮬레이션과 자체 구현한 차륜 구동 이동 로봇인 "MARI"로 실제 환경에서의 실험을 실시하여 제안된 제어기의 유효성을 검증하였다.

This paper discusses the neural network application in the study on the obstacle avoidance of robot manipulator during the trajectory planning. The collision problem of two robot manipulators which are simultaneously moving in the same workspace is investigated. Instead of the traditional modeling method, this paper processing based on the calculation of joint angle in the cartesian coordinate with constrained condition shows the possibility of real time control. The problem of the falling into the local minima is cleared by the adaptive weight factor control using the temperature adding method. Computer simulations are shown for the verification.
