We may gaze at some peculiar scenes of flocking of birds and fishes. This paper demonstrates that multiple agent mobile robots show complex behaviors from efficient and strategic rules. The simulated flock are realized by a distributed behavioral model and each mobile robot decides its own motion as an individual which moves constantly by sensing the dynamic environment.

These days, industrial robots are required to have high speed and high precision in doing various tasks. Recently, the adaptive control algorithms for those nonlinear robots have been developed. With spatial vector space, these adaptive algorithms including recursive implementation are simply described. Without sensing joint acceleration and computing the inversion of inertia matrix, these algorithms which include P.D. terms and feedforward terms have global tracking convergence. In this paper, the feasibility of the proposed control method is illustrated by applying to 2 DOF SCARA robot in DSP(Digital Signal Processing).

Human's brain action can divide by recognition and intelligence. recognition is sensing voice, image and smell and Intelligence is logical judgment, inference, decision. To this concept, Define function of cerebral cortex, and apply the result. Current expert system is lack, that reasoning by cerebral cortex and thalamus, hoppocampal and so on. In this paper, With human's brain action, wish to embody human's action artificially Embody brain mechanism using Modular Neural Network, Applied this result to snake robot.

In this paper, we proposed a TDC based F/T sensorless active compliance control algorithm for a rehabilitation robot (KARES II). The preference of compliance of the disabled is presented by clinical testing at Korea National Rehabilitation Center with the disabled. The KARES II was designed to work 12 predefined tasks which are very essential for helping the disabled. Among the tasks, some contact tasks between the robot and the disabled exist. Therefore, TDC based F/T sensorless compliance control algorithm is developed for these tasks without additional cost. We verified the proposed algorithm with experiment. Also for the practical use, suitable compliance for contact tasks is chosen by clinical testing at Korea National Rehabilitation Center.

The soccer robot system consists of multi agents, with highly coordinated operation and movements so as to fulfill specific objectives, even under adverse situation. The coordination of the multi-agents is associated with a lot of supplementary work in advance. The associated issues are the position correction, prevention of communication congestion, local information sensing in addition to the need for imitating the human-like decision making. A control structure for soccer robot is designed and several behaviors and actions for a soccer robot are proposed. Variable zone defense as a basic strategy and several special strategies for fouls are applied to SOTY2 team.

This paper presents a simple sensor network consists of a group of sensors, RF components, and microprocessors, to perform a distributed sensing and information transmission using wireless links. In the proposed sensor network, though each sensor node has a limited capability and a simple signal-processing engine, a group of sensor nodes can perform a various tasks through coordinated information sharing and wireless communication in a large working area. Using the capability of self-localization and tracking, we show the sensor network can be applied to localization and navigation of mobile robot in which the robot has to be coordinated effectively to perform given task in real time.

This paper proposes an elliptical world-modeling mehtrod in order to secure the safety of the mobile robot from the unreliability of ultrasonic sensors and to estimate the lateral orientation of the detected objects. This method is advnatageous because the total amount of data that the robot utilizes is reduced when historical and new data are clusterd during each sensing period and also because the objects in the environment can be almost exactly recognized. This paper also proposes a new local path planning algorithm which is divided into four different situations and gudies the robot through the safe local path using dat acollected in elliptical form. This algorithm can help the AMR navigate by allowing it to sum up the virtual vector forces made form the ellipses in order to select a safe subgoal. This local path plannin gmehtod using the elliptical world model has been proved by several navigation experiments.

The use of infrared range-finder sensor as the environment recognition system for mobile robot have the advantage of low sensing cost compared with the use of other vision sensor such as laser finder CCD camera. However, it is not easy to find the previous works on the use of infrared range-finder sensor for a mobile robot because of the non-linear characteristic of that. This paper describes the error due to non-linearity of a sensor and the correction of it using neural network. The neural network consists of multi-layer perception and Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is applied to learning it. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified from experiment.

In this paper, An analysis on the intelligence system for a biped walking robot(BWR) was made and its results were applied to the BWR. Various sensors were applied to the developed BWR for autonomous and intelligent walk in unknown environments. To measure the distance between the object and BWR, ultrasonic sensor and infrared-rays sensor were used. To identity surrounding environments, vision system was used. Gyro sensor was used to control the posture of BWR. Also, piezoelectricity sensor was used to identity the pressure of foot landing on the surface. Sensors applied to the robot have measurement errors according to noises or walking environments. To improve the function of these sensors, influences of noise or sensing errors were minimized using a sensor fusion scheme. A gait test using the sensor fusion system was performed, and its results are presented.

This paper deals with the real-time message network system by a CAN (controller area network) based on the real-time distributed control scheme to integrate actuators and sensors in a humanoid robot. In order to apply the real-time distributed processing for a humanoid robot, each control unit should have the real-time efficient control method, fast sensing method, fast calculation and real-time valid data exchange method. Moreover, the data from sensors and encoders must be transmitted to the higher level of control units in maximum time limit. This paper describes the real-time message network system design and the performance of the system.
