  • In order to guide the robots move along a collision-free path efficiently and reach the goal position quickly in the unknown multi-obstacle environment, this paper presented the navigation problem of a wheel mobile robot based on proximity sensors by fuzzy logic controller. Then a genetic algorithm was applied to optimize the membership function of input and output variables and the rule base of the fuzzy controller. Here the environment is unknown for the robot and contains various types of obstacles. The robot should detect the surrounding information by its own sensors only. For the special condition of path deadlock problem, a wall following method named angle compensation method was also developed here. The simulation results showed a good performance for navigation problem of mobile robots.

  • The purpose of this paper is to propose new recovery algorithm for case of a system element raises communication obstacle due to faults in networks, Also we are simulate the algorithm using adjacency matrix. We recover one faulty node per each excution of proposed algorithm so that we can be reconstruct the faulty system gradually to communicatable network. For that, this paper propose a new recovery algorithm named MATRECO which connect the recovery process is simulated by use of adjacency matrix.

  • In this paper, a real-time collision avoidance algorithm is proposed for experimental Autonomous Vehicle(XAV). To ensure real-time implementation, a virtual potential field is calculated in one dimensional space. The attractive force is generated by the steering command either transmitted in the remote control station or calculated in the Autonomous Navigation System(ANS) of the XAV. The repulsive force is generated by obstacle information obtained from Laser Range Finder(LRF) mounted on the XAV. Using these attractive and repulsive forces, modified steering, velocity and emergency stop commands are created to avoid obstacles and follow a planned path. The suggested algorithm is inserted as one component in the XAV system. Through various real experiments and technical demonstration using the XAV, the usefulness and practicality of the proposed algorithm are verified.

  • This paper suggests a multiple robot simulator which considers the uncertainties in robot motion and sensing. A mobile robot moves with errors due to some kinds of uncertainties from actuators, wheels, electrical components, environments. In addition, sensors attached to a mobile robot can't make accurate output information because of uncertainties of the sensor itself and environment. Uncertainties in robot motion and sensing leads researchers find difficulty in building mobile robot navigation algorithms. Generally, a robot algorithm without considering unexpected uncertainties fails to control its action in a real working environment and it leads to some troubles and damages. Thus, the authors propose a simulator model which includes robot motion and sensing uncertainties to help making robust algorithms. Sensor uncertainties are applied in range sensors which are widely used in mobile robot localization, obstacle detection, and map building. The paper shows performances of the proposed simulator by comparing it with a simulator without any uncertainty.

  • We propose and develop Home Security robot system based on Sensor Network (HSSN) configured by sensor nodes including radio frequency (RF), ultrasonic, temperature, light and sound sensors. Our system can acknowledge security alarm events that are acquired by sensor nodes and relayed in the hop-by-hop transmission way. There are sensor network, Home Security Mobile Robot (HSMR) and Home Server(HS) in this system. In the experimental results of this system, we presented that our system has more enhanced performance of response to emergency context and more speedy and accurate path planning to target position for arriving an alarm zone with obstacle avoidance and acquiring the context-aware information.

  • As the global smartphones market is growing at a brisk pace, their associated mobile applications are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in our daily life. The growth of mobile application business is explosive. Like other digital contents businesses, illegal downloads of copyrighted mobile applications become major obstacle in the future of the industry. In spite of anti-piracy efforts, the phenomenon has been getting worse. It is necessary to change the focus of current deterrence policies and strategies. This study investigates the factors influencing smartphone applications piracy behavior. For better understanding of illegal behavior, a research model of potential determinants for the piracy behavior is developed and empirically tested via path analysis using structural equation modeling. Findings show that social factors, beliefs concerning benefits from piracy, self-efficacy, and habit have significant effects on attitude toward smartphone application piracy. The result also shows perceived risks and facilitating conditions were not significantly related to their attitude. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

  • 청소 로봇의 장애물 판단은 청소 로봇이 정확하고 빠르게 장애물을 파악하여 정밀한 제어를 수행하며 청소 효율을 향상 시키는데 중요하다. 청소 로봇이 장애물을 판단하는데 여러 가지 알고리즘이 있지만 신경망 알고리즘 특히, BP(Back-Propagation) 알고리즘을 적용하여 장애물 인식에 있어 반복학습 시키면 청소 로봇은 보다 빠르고 정착하게 장애물을 스스로 판단 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 청소 로봇에 부착된 초음파 센서와 장애물과의 거리데이터를 얻어, 이를 BP 알고리즘에 적용하는 것을 연구하며 학습률, 반복학습, 최대 제곱 오차값를 조정한 실험결과로 특성변화를 관찰하고 해석하여 검증한다.

  • In this paper we present the multi-agent robot system developed for participating in micro robot soccer tournament. The multi-agent robot system consists of micro robot, a vision system, a host computer and a communication module. Mcro robot are equipped with two mini DC motors with encoders and gearboxes, a R/F receiver, a CPU and infrared sensors for obstacle detection. A vision system is used to recognize the position of the ball and opponent robots, position and orientation of our robots. The vision system is composed of a color CCD camera and a vision processing unit. Host computer is a Pentium PC, and it receives information from the vision system, generates commands for each robot using a robot management algorithm and transmits commands to the robots by the R/F communication module. And in order to achieve a given mission in micro robot soccer game, cooperative behaviors by robots are essential. Cooperative work between individual agents is achieved by the command of host computer.

  • Two robots working in a common workspace may collide with each other. In this paper, a collision-free motion planning algorithm using view time concept is proposed to detect and avoid collision before robot motion. Collision may occur not only at the robot end effector but also at robot links. To detect and avoid potential collisions, the trajectory of the first robot is sampled periodically at every view time and the region in Cartesian space swept by the first robot is viewed as an obstacle during a single sampling period. The forbidden region in the joint constraint map (JCM). The JCM's are obtained in this way at every view time. An algorithm is established for collision-free motion planning of the two robot system from the sequence of JCM's and it is verified by simulations.
