실시간으로 빠른 응답을 원하는 시스템에서 임베디드 시스템은 매우 적절한 요소가 되었으며 원격제어를 위해 네트워크를 이용한 연구가 많아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 PC기반의 원격제어 시스템을 임베디드화 하고 여기에 실시간 운영체제를 이식하여 시스템의 안정성과 속도 면에서 우수한 시스템을 구현하려고 한다. 이를 위하여 임베디드 시스템인 상용의 EZBoard와 운영체제로 real time OS를 사용한다. 네트워크로는 통신 프로토콜은 TCP/IP를 이용하려고 한다. 나아가 이 시스템을 Doorlock 제어 시스템에 적용시키려고 한다.

In this paper, an implementation of force control for a slave mobile robot in tele-operation environment is presented. A mobile robot is built to have a force control capability with a force sensor and tested for force tracking control performances. Both position and contact force are regulated by a PID based hybrid control method and the impedance force control method. To minimize accumulated errors due to the adaptive impedance force control method, the novel force control method with a weighted function is proposed. Experimental studies of regulating contact forces for different control algorithms are tested and their performances are compared.

인터넷을 이용한 원격 제어에 있어서는 통신 프로토콜은 TCP/IP를 기반으로 이루어지고 있는데 대개의 경우는 소켓을 이용한 PC기반에서 해석되어 지고 처리되어 진다. 본 논문에서는 PC기반의 원격제어 시스템을 임베디드화함으로써 시스템의 안정성과 속도면에서 우수한 시스템을 구현하려고 한다. 이를 위하여 임베디드 시스템은 HD860-R3보드를 이용하였고 실시간 운영체제로 리눅스를 사용하였다 실질적인 제어물의 제어를 위해서 제어기를 설계 HD860-R3보드와 시리얼을 통하여 통신하였다. 나아가 이 시스템을 PC기반의 시스템에서 탈피한 시스템을 홈 오토메이션의 제어 시스템에 적용시켜 보려 한다.

원격지의 로봇을 조작함에 있어, 원격지의 상황을 정확히 인식하는 것이 우선적으로 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 로봇에 설치된 스테레오 카메라를 통해 입력된 비디오를 네트워크를 통해 전달하고, 조작 공간에 있는 사용자가 Head Mounted Display(HMD) 기기를 통해 원격지의 상황을 현장감 있게 파악할 수 있는 비전 시스템을 구현했다. 로봇 내 S/W의 효과적인 통합을 위해 카메라 입력 처리 및 비디오 스트리밍은 Ubuntu의 ROS를 이용하여 구현됐으며, 조작 공간의 HMD 기기 및 관련 조작 센서 통합은 Windows 상에 구현하여, 실험을 통해 원격지의 상황을 25fps 수준의 HD 해상도 비디오로 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a new master arm was developed as an input device of the remote control system for easy control of the industrial robot arm; it has a structure similar to the robot arm and is easy to wear. For control of the slave arm, related equations were derived about the joints between the master and slave arm; and thereby using them, the master arm control system was developed. Furthermore, a control simulator was developed for the convenient and accurate control of the slave arm. Experiments, about controlling the slave arm in applying the master arm, were performed to validate the developed simulator and the derived related equations.

In this paper, fault tolerant mechanisms are presented for a servo manipulator system designed to operate in a hot cell. A hot cell is a sealed and shielded room to handle radioactive materials, and it is dangerous for people to work in the hot cell. So, remote operations are necessary to handle the radioactive materials in the hot cell. KAERI has developed a servo manipulator system to perform such remote operations. However, since electric components such as servo motors may fail by radiation, fault tolerant mechanisms have to be considered. For fault tolerance of the servo manipulator system, duplication mechanism increasing the reliability of the transport's driving motors and reconfiguration algorithm accommodating the slave's motor failure have been presented. The reconfiguration algorithm recovering the end effector's motion in spite of one motor's failure is based on control allocation redistributing redundant axes. The constrained optimization method and pseudo inverse method have been adopted for control allocation. Simulation examples and real test results have been presented to verify the Proposed methods.

This paper presents an optimally designed master device mechanism for teleoperated interventional robotic system. The interventional procedures using the teleoperated robotic system and the physicians' requirements are summarized. The master device should implement 5-DOF motion including 2-DOF translational motion for the entry position control, 2-DOF rotational motion for the orientation control, and 1- DOF translational motion for needle insertion. The handle assembly includes a 1-DOF translational mechanism for needle insertion and buttons for operation mode selection. The mechanisms for the 2-DOF translational motion and the 2-DOF rotational motion are designed using motors and brakes based on the various mechanisms to satisfy all the above requirements, respectively. Absolute position sensors are adopted to implement automatic initial positioning and orientation matching at the first step of needle insertion.

Background: The advanced spent fuel conditioning process facility (ACPF) of the irradiated materials examination facility (IMEF) at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has been renovated to implement a lab scale electrolytic reduction process for pyroprocessing. The interior and exterior structures of the ACPF hot cell have been modified under the current renovation project for the experimentation of the electrolytic reduction process using spent nuclear fuel. The most important aspect of this renovation was the installation of the argon compartment within the hot cell. Method: For the design and system implementation of the argon compartment system, a full-scale mock-up test and a three-dimensional (3D) simulation test were conducted in advance. The remodeling and repairing of the process cell (M8a), the maintenance cell (M8b), the isolation room, and their utilities were also planned through this simulation to accommodate the designed argon compartment system. Results and conclusion: Based on the considered refurbishment workflow, previous equipment in the M8 cell, including vessels and pipes, were removed and disposed of successfully after a zoning smear survey and decontamination, and new equipment with advanced functions and specifications were installed in the hot cell. Finally, the operating area and isolation room were also refurbished to meet the requirements of the improved hot cell facility.

In robotics classes, various types of materials about robotics are still needed for helping students to understand concepts easily, and it is difficult for all students to perform actual experiments because of the lack of the real robots. In order to solve these problems, this paper develops a web-based distance learning system for robotics, which consists of multimedia content sand a 3-dimensional robot simulator. Students can easily get multimedia contents and understand concepts about robots. Also, they can use a 3-dimensional robot simulator to Perform virtual robot experiments and connection experiments with real robots.

In this paper, we propose a novel manipulator intended for the needs of telerobotic micromanipulation. We designed an original manipulator capable of performing fine motion with an accuracy greater than $2{\mu}m$, while remaining simple in design and easy in control. Preliminary calculations of manipulator accuracy have been conducted, and the device has been designed and manufactured accordingly. The accuracy of the proposed manipulator has been verified during the series micro-positioning experiments under different types of controllers, and the results proved that the manipulator is suitable for micromanipulation applications as a part of telerobotic system. The proposed manipulator has been compared to existing analogues by several parameters, and both its advantages and disadvantages have been discussed.
