In order to enable network robots to effectively collaborate with smart environments, it is crucial that various types of heterogeneous device platforms can communicate each other in flexible and efficient manners. Most of existing software platforms for network robots adopted general-purpose middlewares such as CORBA, which are not suitable to the communication between robots and smart environments due to their heavy size and complexity. Moreover, they do not provide network robot-specific features. Therefore, we propose a new TCP-based Remote Method Invocation framework. We devide the middleware into two layers i. e. transport layers and rmi layers and provide key features to each layer so that network robots can effectively communicate with various devices in smart environments.

Teleoperation of a robot arm working in hazardous environments has been studied in the field of defense and security. A master system is an essential part that plays an important role in the teleoperation. We developed a master system, which is an essential part in the teleoperation, so that it can operate the slave robot arm intuitively and has excellent mobility and portability compared to conventional master systems. The master system adopted a Stewart platform to minimize the size and weight, and the legs of the Stewart platform are composed of wires to improve the operation range of the system. The experimental validation of the developed master system is conducted with a commercial IMU, and the experimental results show that the proposed master system can perform reliable and dexterous teleoperation.

Recently, collision avoidance systems are under development to reduce the traffic accidents and driver comfort for automotive radar. Pulse radar can detect their range and velocities of moving vehicles using range gate and FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) of the doppler frequency. We designed the real time DSP(Digital Signal Processing) based automotive UWB(Ultra Wideband) radar, and implemented DSP to detect the range and velocity within 100ms for real time system of the automotive UWB radar. We also measured the range and velocity of a moving vehicle using designed automotive UWB radar in a real road environment.

MSRDS(Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio), the robot simulation platform provides the simulation robots and environments enabling to the basic robot programming without hardware robots. In this paper, we carry the maze escaping problems to compare and analyze the performance of LRF, bumper, IR, and sonar sensor with the same condition on MSRDS(Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio) environment. To evaluate the performance of sensors, we program the simulation environments with same conditions for all sensors. We could find that the LRF sensor had the highest performance and the bumper sensor has the lowest performance on the travel time, the number of turning, and the number of collisions. It was also confirmed that IR sensor and sonar sensor had lower performance than LRF sensor on the number of turning.

In this paper, the design application for the lightweight and insulation of the manipulator of the mobile welding robot for the closed/narrow space is presented. A variety of robotic platforms have been developed for weld-worker using a welding robot outside a workpiece for welding work in a complex and narrow space such as a ship or an offshore plant. Normally, The development process of robots consists of machine development, electronic device development, control algorithm development and integration verification considering application environment and requirements. In order to develop the robustness of the welding robot, the lightweight design of the robot manipulator considering the environmental conditions was performed in the basic design of the robot platform. Also, The results of the robot selection and validation, analysis and testing for the insulation performance and cooling performance and the results of the research are shown.

A mobile platform that can robustly operate in unstructured environments such as construction sites is an essential problem for smart construction technology development. In this paper, we introduce a mobile robot platform that can be applied to the unstructured environment to support the collection of geographical information at construction sites. The proposed mobile platform is designed to cope with not only vertical slopes but also side slopes, and the performance of overcoming the step difference of the proposed platform was analyzed through simulation experiments.
