본 논문에서는 상지하부 절단환자를 대상으로 하는 상지 근전도 기반의 로봇 팔 제어방법을 제안한다. 로봇 팔의 제어를 위해 전완 신전근과 전완 굴곡근 그리고 이두근의 근활성도를 분석하여 특정 자세에 따른 근활성도 분포를 제어입력으로 활용하였다. 이러한 제어 입력은 알고리즘을 통하여 로봇 팔을 제어하기 위한 제어명령으로 변환된다. 제안하는 방법에 대한 실험 및 검증을 위하여 1채널 근전도 착용형 모듈과 각각의 모듈과의 연동을 통하여 3채널 근전도 분석을 수행하는 PC 어플리케이션 기반의 5자유도 로봇 팔 제어시스템을 구성하였다. 제어의 정확도 및 성능평가를 위해 로봇 팔을 통한 물건 옮기기 실험을 수행하였으며, 20대 중반의 남성을 대상으로 하여 10시간의 숙달훈련 후 실험을 수행한 결과 실험결과의 평균 정확도가 92.5%로서 제안하는 방법은 유효한 것으로 평가하였다.

During the intramedullary nailing procedure, surgeons feel difficulty in manipulation of the X-ray device to align it to axes of nailing holes and suffer from the large radiation exposure from the X-ray device. These problems are caused by the fact the surgeon cannot see the hole's location directly and should use the X-ray device to find the hole's location and direction. In this paper, we proposed the robotic guidance of the distal screwing using an optical tracking system. To track the location of the hole for the distal screwing, the reference marker is attached to the proximal end of an intramedullary nail. To guide the drill's direction robustly, the 6-degree-of-freedom robotic arm is used. The robotic arm is controlled so as to align the drill guiding tool attached the robotic arm with the obtained the hole's location. For the safety, the robot's linear and angular velocities are restricted to the predefined values. The experimental results using the artificial bones showed that the position error and the orientation error were 0.91 mm and $1.64^{\circ}$, respectively. The proposed method is simple and easy to implement, thus it is expected to be adopted easily while reducing the radiation exposure significantly.

In the rehabilitation robotic arm systems for the disabled with spinal code injury, EMG signals are used in the control of the robotic arm. EMG signals are corrupted by many kinds of noises such as ECG signal, power noise and contact noise of electrode. Noise rejection improves the performance of the EMG pattern classification. In this paper, a variable bandwidth filter (VBF) and wavelet transform are used for the noise rejection of EMG signals and the comparison of SNR is given. Also, some statistical characteristics of features are investigated.

Recently, interest of a dual arm robot which can replace humans is increasing in order to improve the working environment and solve the labor shortage. Various studies related with design and analysis of dual-arm robots have been conducted because dual arm robots can have various kinematic configurations according to the objective task. It is necessary to evaluate the work performance according to various kinematic structures of the dual arm robot to maximize its effectiveness. In the paper, the performance analysis is studied according to the shoulder configuration and the wrist configuration of the dual-arm robot by using main performance indices such as manipulability, condition number, and minimum singular value by assigning proper weight values to each objective motion. Performance analysis for the robotic assembly process is effectively carried out for each representative dual arm robot configuration.

Welding is a significant part of the construction industry. Since most high-rise building construction structures rely on a robust metal frame welded together, welding defect can damage welded structures and is critical to safety and quality. Despite its importance and heavy usage in construction, the labor shortage of welders has been a continuous challenge to the construction industry. To deal with the labor shortage, the ultimate goal of this study is to design and develop an automated robotic welding system composed of a welding machine, unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), robotic arm, and visual sensors. This paper proposes and focuses on automated weaving using the robotic arm. For automated welding operation, a microcontroller is used to control the switch and is added to a welding torch by physically modifying the hardware. Varying weave patterns are mathematically programmed. The automated weaving is tested using a brush pen and a ballpoint pen to clearly see the patterns and detect any changes in vertical forces by the arm during weaving. The results show that the weave patterns have sufficiently high consistency and precision to be used in the actual welding. Lastly, actual welding was performed, and the results are presented.

본 논문에서는 단순하고 효율적인 학습제어 로직을 운동기구용 로봇팔 시스템에 적용하였다. 일반적으로 운동시에 운동기구에 적용되는 힘은 사용자마다 다르고 같은 사용자라 하더라도 운동시마다 다를 것이다. 이미 사용자의 신체조건에 따라 입력된 최적의 힘과 실제 가해지는 힘 사이의 오차를 보상하는데 본 논문에서는 학습제어를 적용하여 가해지는 힘의 종류(시변 또는 시불변함수)와 상관없이 빠르게 오차를 제거하고 원하는 운동을 추종함을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 다관절 로봇 암을 활용한 열 성형 공정을 통해 열가소성 복합재 부품을 개발하였다. 유한요소해석을 기반으로 로봇 암이 적용된 고속 열 성형 공정의 최적 공정 변수를 도출하였고, 이를 기반으로 실제 제작 공정을 통해 공정 변수를 구체화하였다. 제작된 부품과 유한요소해석 간의 두께 균일성, 주름 분포를 비교하였고, 이를 통해 유한요소해석의 타당성을 입증하였다. 또한, 제작된 복합재 부품의 성형성을 평가하기 위해 결정화도와 기공률을 측정하였고, 그 결과 우수한 성형성을 보인 것으로 평가하였다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 로봇 암기반의 고속 열 성형 공정을 통한 공정 확립과 이를 통한 복합재 구조의 제작 가능성을 확인하였다.

In this study, we developed a new human arm movement detection system using electrical bio-impedance method with several skin-electrodes. The correlation coefficients of the joint angle and the impedance change from human arm movement was obtained using a goniometer and impedance measurement system developed in this study. The correlation coefficients of the wrist and the elbow movements were 0.94 and -0.99, respectively. This system was applied to control a robotic arm by converting the measured impedance to joint angle to confirm the validity of the proposed system. In conclusion, we confirmed that this system can control the robotic arm according to arm movement without any limitation of movement. This system showed possibility that upper arm movement could be easily measured by impedance measurement system with a few skin-electrodes.

This paper describes dynamic manipulability analysis of robotic arms moving in viscous fluid. The Manipulability is a functionality of manipulator system in a given configuration and under the limits of joint ability with respect to the tasks required to bt performed. To investigate the manipulability of underwater robotic arms, a modeling and analysis method are presented. The dynamic equation of motion of underwater manipulator is derived from the Lagrange - Euler equation considering with the hydraulic forces caused by added mass, buoyancy and hydraulic drag. The hydraulic drag term in the equation: is established as analytical form using Denavit - Hartenberg (D-H) link coordination of manipulator. Two analytical approaches based on Manipulability Ellipsoid are presented to visualize the manipulability of robotic arm moving in viscous fluid. The one is scaled ellipsoid which transforms the boundary of joint torque to acceleration boundary of end-effector by normalizing the torque in joint space while the other is shifted ellipsoid which depicts total acceleration boundary of end-effector by shifting the ellipsoid in work space. An analysis example of 2-link manipulator with proposed analysis scheme is presented to validate the method.
