In this paper, we propose a new algorithm of the guidance line extraction for autonomous agricultural robot based on vision camera in paddy field. It is the important process for guidance line extraction which finds the central point or area of rice row. We are trying to use the central region data of crop that the direction of rice leaves have convergence to central area of rice row in order to improve accuracy of the guidance line. The guidance line is extracted from the intersection points of extended virtual lines using the modified robust regression. The extended virtual lines are represented as the extended line from each segmented straight line created on the edges of the rice plants in the image using the Hough transform. We also have verified an accuracy of the proposed algorithm by experiments in the real wet paddy.

In this paper, an improved integral variable structure regulation controller is designed by using a special integral sliding surface and a disturbance observer for the improved regulation control of highly nonlinear rigid robot manipulators with prescribed output performance. The sliding surface having the integral state with a special initial condition is employed in this paper to exactly predetermine the ideal sliding trajectory from a given initial condition to the desired reference without any reaching phase. And a continuous sliding mode input using the disturbance observer is also introduced in order to effectively follow the predetermined sliding trajectory within the prescribed accuracy without large computation burden. The performance of the prescribed tracking accuracy to the predetermined sliding trajectory is clearly investigated in detail through the two theorems, together with the closed loop stability. The design of the proposed regulation controller is separated into the performance design and robustness design in each independent link. The usefulness of the algorithm has been demonstrated through simulation studies on the regulation control of a two-link robot under parameter uncertainties and payload variations.

이동 로봇 Pan-Tilt 기구부에 장착된 스테레오 카메라의 Head-Eye 보정 및 Wheel 보정을 동시에 수행하는 방법을 제안한다. 카메라가 이동로봇의 고정형 기구부에 장착되어있는 경우를 고려한 기존의 방법들은 최근 일반적인 이러한 시스템에 적용될 수 없다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 기존 방법을 바탕으로 한 선형 반복적인 방법을 고안하였다. 이것은 동시보정을 통한 효율성뿐만 아니라 정확도 면에서도 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다. 그리고 비선형 최적화 기법을 통해 보다 높은 정확도의 보정을 구현했다.

This paper proposes a new approach to the designed of visual feedback control system based on visual servoing method. The main focus of this paper is presents how it is effective to use many features for improving the accuracy of the visual feedback control of industrial articulated robot for assembling and inspection of parts. Some rank conditions, which relate the image Jacobian, and the control performance are derived. It is also proven that the accuracy is improved by increasing the number of features. The effectiveness of redundant features is verified by the real time experiments on a SCARA type robot(FARA) made in samsung electronics company.

Fruit detection in orchards is one of the most crucial tasks for designing the visual system of an automated harvesting robot. It is the first and foremost tool employed for tasks such as sorting, grading, harvesting, disease control, and yield estimation, etc. Efficient visual systems are crucial for designing an automated robot. However, conventional fruit detection methods always a trade-off with accuracy, real-time response, and extensibility. Therefore, an improved method is proposed based on coarse-to-fine multitask cascaded convolutional networks (MTCNN) with three aspects to enable the practical application. First, the architecture of Fruit-MTCNN was improved to increase its power to discriminate between objects and their backgrounds. Then, with a few manual labels and operations, synthetic images and labels were generated to increase the diversity and the number of image samples. Further, through the online hard example mining (OHEM) strategy during training, the detector retrained hard examples. Finally, the improved detector was tested for its performance that proved superior in predicted accuracy and retaining good performances on portability with the low time cost. Based on performance, it was concluded that the detector could be applied practically in the actual orchard environment.

Artificial intelligence is crucial to manufacturing productivity. Understanding the difficulties in producing disruptions, especially in linear feed robot systems, is essential for efficient operations. These mechanical tools, essential for linear movements within systems, are prone to damage and degradation, especially in the LM guide, due to repetitive motions. We examine how explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) may diagnose wafer linear robot linear rail clearance and ball screw clearance anomalies. XAI helps diagnose problems and explain anomalies, enriching management and operational strategies. By interpreting the reasons for anomaly detection through visualizations such as Class Activation Maps (CAMs) using technologies like Grad-CAM, FG-CAM, and FFT-CAM, and comparing 1D-CNN with 2D-CNN, we illustrates the potential of XAI in enhancing diagnostic accuracy. The use of datasets from accelerometer and torque sensors in our experiments validates the high accuracy of the proposed method in binary and ternary classifications. This study exemplifies how XAI can elucidate deep learning models trained on industrial signals, offering a practical approach to understanding and applying AI in maintaining the integrity of critical components such as LM guides in linear feed robots.

This paper presents how it is effective to use many features for improving the speed and the accuracy of the visual servo systems. Some rank conditions which relate the image Jacobian and the control performance are derived. It is also proven that the accuracy is improved by increasing the number of features. Effectiveness of the redundant features is evaluated by the smallest singular value of the image Jacobian which is closely related to the accuracy with respect to the world coordinate system. Usefulness of the redundant features is verified by the real time experiments on a Dual-Arm Robot manipulator made in Samsung Electronic Co. Ltd.
