This paper presents the method of calibrating and compensating for the kinematic errors in robot manipulators. A calibration model is developed to represent any geometric errors in the manipulator's structure. A calibration jig is used to find the values of these kinematic errors in the end-effector's position and a calibration algormined for a SSR-6 robot manipulator developed by Samsung Heavy Industry, Daeduk R & D Center. Through this experiment the maximun kinematic error is reduced from 10mm to 0.4mm

This research is concerned with the development of an Internet-based robot system, which is insensitive to the unpredictable Internet time delay. For that purpose, a simple mobile robot system that moves in response to the user' direct control on the Internet has been built. The time delay in data transmission is a big problem for the construction of this kind of system. Therefore, the PPS (Position Prediction Simulator) is suggested and implemented to compensate for the time delay problem of the Internet. The simulation and experimental result show that the distance error can be reduced using the developed PPS.

As the technology of industrial automation using robot system grows the rapid advance, productivity improvement and decrease in number of maintenance, management occur in many fields. Therefore, more various and intelligent robot motions are needed without human being help. Considering this situation, the need of robot with various, fast and safe acting sensors are demanded. In these sensings, the slippage sensing gives us specific information between ripper and object while grasps the object. In this paper, we proposed new slippage sensing algorithm for various and intelligent robot motion. So, optimal grasping force control and compensation of position error is possible for an adaptive task execution using adaptive control.

A new prediction scheme has been proposed for the robust teleoperation in a non-visible environment. The positioning error caused by the time delay in the non-visible environment has been compensated for by the Smith predictor and the sensory data have been estimated by the Grey model. The Smith predictor is effective for the compensation of the positioning error caused by the time delay with a precise system model. Therefore the dynamic model of a mobile robot has been used in this research. To minimize the unstable and erroneous states caused by the time delay, the estimated sensor data have been sent to the operator. Through simulations, the possibility of compensating the errors caused by the time delay has been verified using the Smith predictor. Also the estimation reliability of the measurement data has been demonstrated. Robust teleoperations in a non-visible environment have been performed with a mobile robot to avoid the obstacles effective to go to the target position by the proposed prediction scheme which combines the Smith predictor and the Grey model. Even though the human operator is involved in the teleoperation loop, the compensation effects have been clearly demonstrated.

This paper proposes a method of designing and controlling delta robots with low-cost DC motors, which are widely used in the automation process. Simulation was performed by interpreting the mechanics and dynamics of the delta robot, and based on this analysis, low-cost DC motor was selected. Experiments were conducted to obtain characteristic values of motors and the current-position cascade control system was designed and implemented. In order to verify the feasibility of the proposed system, the experiment to check that the end-effector of the delta robot follows the target path was progressed. Through the experiment, the limitations of using low-cost motors were overcome by designing compensation algorithms and the performance of the position control was verified.

Recently taping robot with smart recognition function have been studied in the coil manufacturing field. Due to the difficulty of 3D surface processing from the complicated working environment, it is not easy to accomplish smart tape attachment motion with non-contact sensor. To solve these problems the applicable surface recognition algorithm and a flexible sensing device has been recommended. In this research, the fusion method between 1D displacement and 3D laser scanner is applied for robust tape attachment about cold rolled coil. With these sensors we develop a two-step exploration and the smart algorithm for the awareness of non-aligned coil's information. In the proposed robot system for tape attachment, the problem is reduced to coil's radius searching with laser displacement sensor at first, and then position and orientation detection with 3D laser scanner. To get the movement at the robot's base frame, the hand-eye compensation between robot's end effector and sensing device should be also carried out respectively. In this paper, we examine the auto-coordinate transformation method in the calibration step for the real environment usage. From the experimental results, it was shown that the taping motion of robot had a robust under the non-aligned cold rolled coil.

Polishing a die that has free-form surfaces is a time-consuming and tedious job, and requires a considerable amount of high-precision skill. In order to reduce the polishing time and cope with the shortage of skilled workers, a user-friendly automatic polishing system was developed. The polishing system is composed of two subsystems, a three-axis machining center and a two-axis polishing robot. The system has five degrees of freedom and is able to keep the polishing tool in a position normal to the die surface during operation. A sliding mode control algorithm with velocity compensation was proposed to reduce tracking errors. Trajectory tracking experiments showed that the tracking error can be reduced prominently by the proposed sliding mode control compared to a PD (proportional derivative) control. To evaluate the polishing performance of the polishing system and to and the optimal polishing conditions, the polishing experiments were conducted.

In this paper, the kinestatic control algorithm using a six-axis compliant device is presented. Unlike the traditional control methods using a force/torque sensor with very limited compliance, this method employs a compliant device to provide sufficient compliance between an industrial robot and a rigid environment. This kinestatic control method is used to simply control the position of an industrial robot with twists of compensation, which can be decomposed into twists of compliance and twists of freedom. A simple design method of a six-axis parallel-type compliant device with a diagonal stiffness matrix is presented. A compliant device prototype and kinestatic control hardware system and programming were developed. The effectiveness of the kinestatic control algorithm was verified through two kinds of kinestatic control experiments.

This paper presents the implementation and control of a two wheeled mobile robot(TWMR) based on a balancing mechanism. The TWMR is a mobile inverted pendulum structure that combines an inverted pendulum system and a mobile robot system with two arms instead of a rod. To improve robustness due to disturbances, the radial basis function (RBF) network is used to control an angle and a position at the same time. The reference compensation technique(RCT) is used as a neural control method. Experimental studies are conducted to demonstrate performance of neural network controllers. The robot are implemented with the remote control capability.

This paper describes the design of a fuzzy-logic controller for a differential-drive mobile robots. This controller uses absolute position information to modify control parameters to compensate the orientation error. CC-Control method is compensated for the internal error by wheel encoders and the fuzzy-logic control provides compensation for external errors. The validities of the proposed scheme is evaluated using simulation.
