A cycloid reducer is one of the rotational velocity reduction equipments of machinery. It has advantages of the higher reduction ratio, the higher accuracy, the easier adjustment of transmission ratio and the smaller workspace than other kinds of reducer. A cycloidal plate gear is a main part of the cycloid reducer. Its tooth shape is peculiar because of gearing with the roller gear that has the several rollers on the circular line. And then it can be designed to contact all teeth to rollers. So, the cycloid reducer has the good characteristics in the dynamic properties and the zero-backlash in the contact motion. It can be used in robots, high-precision machines and high capacity machinery. This paper proposes a new approach for the shape design of the cycloidal plate gear and presents a Computer-Aided-Design program developed by the proposed method. The first part of this paper defines the two types of the cycloid reducers and explains their mechanisms. The second part defines the instant velocity centers for each type of the cycloid reducers and calculates the contact angles and the contact points by using te geometric relationships and the kinematical properties of the reducers. The third part generates the full shape of the cycloidal plate gear by the coordinate transformation technique. Finally, this paper presents two examples for the shape design of the cycloidal plate gear in order to prove the theory of the proposed method in this paper and the accuracy of the \"CycloGear Designer\".

큰 병변에 대한 기존 감마나이프 방사선수술은 종종 체적 또는 선량 분할 단계들로 수행된다. 체적 분할의 경우, 병변은 처방된 선량 하에서 하루 또는 이틀, 3 ~ 6개월로 분할된 다중 세션에서 조사되는 하위 체적들로 분할되곤 한다. 치료의 전체 과정 동안, 이전 단계의 치료 정보는 세션 사이의 좌표 변환을 통해 새로 장착된 정위 프레임 상의 후속 세션에 반영될 필요가 있다. 그러나 동일한 정위 공간을 제외하고 기존 감마나이프 시스템으로는 이전 선량 분포를 구현하는 것은 실제로 어렵다. 최신 감마나이프 플랫폼을 사용하여 다단계 치료를 수행할 수 있기 때문에 치료 영역이 확장되고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 정위적 공간에 기초한 영상 정합과 새로운 감마나이프 플랫폼을 사용하여 각 단계에서 처방 선량 결정과 같은 다단계 감마나이프 방사선수술 전략을 소개하는 것이다. 일반적으로 영상 정합에서 수술적으로 내장된 기준점 또는 내부 해부학적 랜드마크들이 변환 관계를 결정하는데 사용된다. 저자는 내부 해부학적 랜드마크들을 사용하는 예로서 4개 또는 6개의 해부학적 랜드마크를 사용하는 다중 세션 간의 좌표 변환 정확도를 비교하였다. 측정된 좌표들과 계산된 좌표들 사이의 불일치를 최소화하기 위해서 PseudoInverse 또는 Singular Value Decomposition을 사용하여 두 정위 공간 사이의 변환 행렬이 결정되었다. 변환 정확도를 평가하기 위해 측정된 좌표와 변환된 좌표들 사이의 차이, 즉 ${\Delta}r$이 10개의 랜드마크들을 사용하여 계산되었다. 10개의 랜드마크들 중 4개 또는 6개의 점들을 사용하여 좌표 변환을 결정하고 나머지는 접근 방법을 평가하는데 사용되었다. 두 가지 접근 방법에서 각각의 ${\Delta}r$ 값은 0.6 ~ 2.4 mm, 0.17 ~ 0.57 mm 범위이었다. 게다가 병변 분할의 경우 한 번에 전체 병변의 치료와 동일한 효과를 제공하는 처방 선량을 결정하는 방법이 제안되었다. 동일한 정위 공간에서의 다단계 치료 전략은 전체 병변에 대한 치료를 먼저 디자인하는 것이며, 전체 치료 디자인 샷들은 각 단계 치료의 샷들로 나누어 각 단계별 샷들을 구성하고 각 단계에서 적절한 처방 선량을 결정한다. 결론적으로 저자는 다단계 치료 전략으로서 처방 선량 결정의 정확성을 확인하였고, 다중 세션 간의 좌표 변환을 결정하기 위해 적은 랜드마크들을 사용하는 것보다 가능한 많은 내부 랜드마크들을 사용하는 것이 더 나은 결과를 산출함을 보았다. 향후 제안된 다단계 치료 전략은 여러 감마나이프 센터들의 틀 없는 분할 치료에 크게 기여할 것이라 사료된다.

This paper proposes a novel upward-looking camera-based global localization using a ceiling image map. The ceiling images obtained through the SLAM process are integrated into the ceiling image map using a particle filter. Global localization is performed by matching the ceiling image map with the current ceiling image using SURF keypoint correspondences. The robot pose is then estimated by the coordinate transformation from the ceiling image map to the global coordinate system. A series of experiments show that the proposed method is robust in real environments.

In this paper we present cooperation of heterogeneous robot team, composed of a wheeled robot and a helicopter for localization and map building. This heterogeneous robot team can successfully fulfill task by combining the abilities of both robots than single robot because wheeled robot and helicopter have complementing ability. The scenario describes a tightly cooperative task, where the wheeled robot move carrying the helicopter and detect obstacles, if there are obstacles, helicopter take off for map building and land, then robot team move destination avoiding obstacles. We present PID controller for position control of helicopter and transformation algorithm to global coordinate from image pixel coordinate. Experimental result show that the proposed method is valid.

In this paper, in order to solve the problems of a narrow viewing angle and the flip effect in a three-dimensional (3D) integral imaging display, we propose an improved system by using an eye tracking method based on the Kinect sensor. In the proposed method, we introduce two types of calibration processes. First process is to perform the calibration between two cameras within Kinect sensor to collect specific 3D information. Second process is to use a space calibration for the coordinate conversion between the Kinect sensor and the coordinate system of the display panel. Our calibration processes can provide the improved performance of estimation for 3D position of the observer's eyes and generate elemental images in real-time speed based on the estimated position. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we implement an integral imaging display system using the eye tracking process based on our calibration processes and carry out the preliminary experiments by measuring the viewing angle and flipping effect for the reconstructed 3D images. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method extended the viewing angles and removed the flipping images compared with the conventional system.

A new control method far vision-based autonomous vehicle is proposed to determine navigation direction by analyzing lane information from a camera and to navigate a vehicle. In this paper, characteristic featured data points are extracted from lane images using a lane recognition algorithm. Then the vehicle is controlled using new Levenberg-Marquardt neural network algorithm. To verify the usefulness of the algorithm, another algorithm, which utilizes the geometric relation of a camera and vehicle, is introduced. The second one involves transformation from an image coordinate to a vehicle coordinate, then steering is determined from Ackermann angle. The steering scheme using Ackermann angle is heavily depends on the correct geometric data of a vehicle and a camera. Meanwhile, the proposed neural network algorithm does not need geometric relations and it depends on the driving style of human driver. The proposed method is superior than other referenced neural network algorithms such as conjugate gradient method or gradient decent one in autonomous lateral control .

Unknown inputs observer(UIO) which is achieved by the coordinate transformation method has the differential of system outputs in the observer and the equation for unknown inputs estimation. Generally, the differential of system outputs in the observer can be eliminated by defining a new variable. But it brings about the partition of the observer into two subsystems and need of an additional differential of system outputs still remained to estimate the unknown inputs. Therefore, the block pulse function expansions and its differential operation which is a newly derived in this paper are presented to alleviate such problems from an algebraic form.

Direct Torque Control method for an Induction Motor is presented which is quite different from field-oriented control. It carries out a precise and quick control of the stator flux and electromagnetic torque of an IM without calling for coordinate transformation, speed measurement, and stator current control. In principle, moreover, DTC operation requires only the knowledge of the stator resistance.

In this paper, we developed an automated program for the modeling and manufacturing of three-dimensional roller gear cams. A computer program employing the theory of gearing and coordinate transformation is developed for synthesizing and animating cam mechanisms. A method using wire frame modeling and shading by triangular element is presented, and effectively used for modeling of example with reduced computation time. Then a module for generation NC program for a five-axis CMC machine to manufacture roller gear cam is established.

In this paper we describe the shape measuring technique and system with a non-contractive sensor, composed of slit-ray projector and solid-state camera. For improving the accuracy and preventing measuring dead point, this sensor part is attached to the end of robot, and each sensing is executed after one step moving. By patching these sensing data, whole measuring data is constructed. The calibration between sensor and world coordinate is implemented through the specific calibration block by transformation matrix method. The result of experiment was satisfactory.
