이 연구는 도서관에서 도입 및 운영 중인 로봇에 대한 분석을 통해 다양한 활용 방안과 기능 개선 방안을 제안하고자 하였으며, 이를 위하여 먼저 국내외 16개 도서관이 운영 중인 로봇의 종류, 기능에 대해서 살펴보았다. 대부분 사서보조업무(장서점검, 자료이송 등)와 이용자 서비스업무(도서관 안내, 자료검색 보조 등)에 활용되고 있었다. 그리고 국립중앙도서관이 도입한 로봇의 특징과 기능적 한계를 살펴보았다. 이러한 결과를 종합하여, 1) 로봇의 추가기능 개발 필요성, 2) 방역 및 안전관리 로봇 도입 필요성, 3) 국가차원의 로봇 확산정책의 필요성, 4) 로봇생태계 구축의 필요성을 제안하였다.

In this paper, we introduce an upper extremity rehabilitation robot, NREH (NRC End-effector based Rehabilitation arm at Home). Through NREH, stroke survivors could continuously exercise their upper extremities at home. NREH allows a user to hold the handle of the end-effector of the robot arm. NREH is a end-effector-based robot that moves the arm on a two-dimensional plane, but the tilt angle can be adjusted to mimic a movement similar to that in a three-dimensional space. Depending on the tilting angle, it is possible to perform customized exercises that can adjust the difficulty for each user. The user can sit down facing the robot and perform exercises such as arm reaching. When the user sits 90 degrees sideways, the user can also exercise their arms on a plane parallel to the sagittal plane. NREH was designed to be as simple as possible considering its use at home. By applying error augmentation, the exercise effect can be increased, and assistance force or resistance force can be applied as needed. Using an encoder on two actuators and a force/torque sensor on the end-effector, NREH can continuously collect and analyze the user's movement data.

The importance of the recent manufacturing industry have been made to invest in a lot of assistance and human resource development at the national dimension in which to rise again. However Learned in actual school education kinetic, and the use to how product design structural knowledge, Often it feels vague unlikely whether it is possible to derive an optimal product. In this study, by using the simulation-based Jansen Mechanism designed a walking robot, after optimization of the numerical consideration when designing for optimum walking motion, through simulation through the actual production resulting numerical information is examined whether valid. In addition, through the actual production was walking robot, to verify the validity of the simulation-based design.

In this paper, we proposed the design and algorithm of force reflection joystick which control mobile robot as a rehabilitation assistance system. The disabled persons are poor at joystick control because of hand vibration and clumsiness in operating it. These problems bring tasks which concerned with operator's safety So there is required technique which prevent collision with wall or obstacles. One of these solution is force reflection joystick which disturb that robot is closed to the wall. To confirm this way, we experimented and simulated with force reflection joystick which attached torque controller.

A robust and reliable path recognition system is one necessary component for the autonomous navigation of a mobile robot to help determining its current position in its navigation map. This paper describes a computer visual path-recognition system using on-board video camera as vision-based driving assistance for an autonomous navigation mobile robot. The common problem for a visual system is that its reliability was often influenced by different lighting conditions. Here, two different image processing methods for the path detection were developed to reduce the effect of the luminance: one is based on the RGB color model and features of the path, another is based on the HSV color model in the absence of luminance.

Wearable robots are receiving great attention from the public, as well as researchers, because its motivation is to improve the quality of lives of people. Above all, complete paraplegic patients due to spinal cord injury (SCI) might be the most adequate target users of the wearable robots, because they definitely need physical assistance due to the complete loss of muscular strength and sensory functions. Furthermore, the medical care of complete paraplegics by using the wearable robots have significantly reduced the mortality rate and improved the life expectancy. The requirements of the wearable robot for complete paraplegics are actuation torque, locomotion speed, wearing sensation, robust gait stability, safety, and practicality (i.e., size, volume, weight, and energy efficiency). A WalkON Suit is the wearable robot that has satisfied the requirements of the wearable robot for complete paraplegics and participated in the powered exoskeleton race of Cybathlon 2016. In this paper, configuration of the WalkON Suit, human-machine interface, gait pattern, control algorithm, and evaluation results are introduced.

Robotic surgery facilitates surgical procedures by employing flexible arms with multiple degrees of freedom and providing high-quality 3-dimensional imaging. Robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction is currently performed to avoid breast scars. Four patients with invasive ductal carcinoma underwent robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy and immediate robot-assisted expander insertion. Through a 6-cm incision along the anterior axillary line, sentinel lymph node biopsy and nipple-sparing mastectomy were performed by oncologic surgeons. The pectoralis major muscle was elevated, an acellular dermal matrix (ADM) sling was created with robotic assistance, and an expander was inserted into the subpectoral, sub-ADM pocket. No patients had major complications such as hematoma, seroma, infection, capsular contracture, or nipple-areolar necrosis. The mean operation time for expander insertion was 1 hour and 20 minutes, and it became shorter with more experience. The first patient completed 2-stage prosthetic reconstruction and was highly satisfied with the unnoticeable scar and symmetric reconstruction. We describe several cases of immediate robot-assisted prosthetic breast reconstruction. This procedure is a feasible surgical option for patients who want to conceal surgical scars.

In this study, we developed control system for stable teleoperation of supermicrosurgical robot platform. The supermicrosurgical robot platform is designed to perform precise anastomosis with micro vessels ranging from 0.3 mm to 0.7 mm. The robotic assistance could help more precise manipulation then manual surgery with the help of motion scaling and tremor filtering. However, since the robotic system could cause several vulnerabilities, control system for stable teleoperation should be preceded. Therefore, we first designed control system including inverse kinematics solver, clutch error interpolator and finite state machine. The inverse kinematics solver was designed to minimized inertial motion of the manipulator and tested by applying orientational motion. To make robot slowly converges to the leader's orientation when orientational error was occurred during clutch, the SLERP was used to interpolate the error. Since synchronized behavior of two manipulators and independent behavior of manipulator both exist, two layered finite state machines were designed. Finally, the control system was evaluated by experiment and showed intended behavior, while maintaining low pose error.

장애자나 노약자가 이동형의 재활보조 시스템을 조이스틱을 이용하여 직접 조작할 경우, 정상인과 달리 조이스틱 제어시 떨림이나 순간적인 오조작 (예를들면 조이스틱으로 손에서 놓치는 경우)이 자주 발생 하게 된다. 이러한 오조작이 그대로 전달될 경우 이동형 재활 보조시스템의 진동잉나 오동작을 초래하고, 특히 장애자나 노약자의안전성의 측면에서 문제로 대두된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 장애자의 오조작 및 주위 환경과의 충돌을 방지하기 위하여 초음파 센서를 사용하여 물체와 이동 로봇의 접근 정도를 측정하고 이에 따라 이동 로보트가 물체에 접근하는 것을 방해할 수 있도록 모터부착형 조이스틱에 토오크를 걸어주는 조이스틱을 사용한 힘 반향 주행 기법을 제안하였다. 제안될 힘 반향 기법의 유효성을 입증하기 위하여 원통형의 전방 장애물과 복도의 벽면을 가상으로 만들고 이를 따라 조이스틱을 조작하여 주행실험을 하였으며, 그 결과 조작자의 숙련도의 차이는 있었으나 장애물 정보를 조이스틱을 통하여 조작자에게 전달됨을 확인함으로써 조작성능과 장애물에 대한 안전성이 향상됨을 알수 있었다.
