In this paper, we suggest tele operation system of reclaimers and some side technologies for performing easy operation. The reclaimers in the raw ore yard are being used to dig ironstone and transfer it to the blast furnaces. The side technologies are to determine the minimum stacking distance between piles, collision avoidance of reclaimers and stackers. For simplicity, the pile and the boom of the reclaimer are mathematically modeled as a cone and a line in the 3-dimensional space respectively. The minimum stacking distance is obtained using the condition that the cone and the line never met. The modeling errors for the pile and reclaimers are compensated by considering the width of their reclaimer. We have also proposed a 2-stage collision detection method for the moving machines. The reclaiming heights of the pile are set to predetermined ones to make tele-operation easy.

본 연구는 LTE 통신망을 사용하여, 실시간 드론 원격주행 시스템을 제안한다. 원격지에 위치한 드론을 180km 떨어진 거리에 위치한 조종자가 50msec 시간지연으로 실시간 고도와 위치, 자세를 제어하면서 조정한다. 조정자의 조정 신호에 따라 움직이는 드론의 영상과 모션 정보는 실시간으로 조정자에게 전송되어, 영상은 조종자의 HMD에서 재생되며, 모션 정보는 조종자가 탑승한 시뮬레이터를 구동하게 된다. 일반으로 드론조정은 RF 신호를 사용하여 통상 2km 이내에서 직접 조정이 가능하며, 이 이상의 거리에서는 미션 플래너를 사용하여 GPS 운행을 한다. 따라서 장거리 비행 중 발생하는 긴급 상황에 대처하는 방안은 자동 비행 종료 후, 원위치로 복귀하는 기능이 주를 이룬다. 본 연구에서는 LTE 통신을 사용하여, 비행 중인 드론의 모션과 영상을 평균 50m sec 이내로 조종자에게 전송하여, 조종자에게 실제 원격지의 드론 위에서 조정하는 것과 유사한 실감환경을 제시한다. 제안된 시스템의 검증을 위하여 대전의 드론 조종자가 강원도 인제에 위치한 드론을 조종하는 실험 결과를 제시한다.

Necessity of the tole-operation has been increased in many fields. Since the Internet is inexpensive and available all over the world, it is a strong candidate for the transmission media of the tole-operation. However, the Internet has random time delays that may cause instability in the system especially if the tole -operation is bilateral. In the past few years many attempts have been made to overcome the random time delay, So far, they are still insufficient in terms of performance. The ‘Variable holding time’ is introduced to improve the performance of the ‘Event based tole-operation’ which controls a system with a non-time action reference. By holding each event for proper time, the system can quickly respond and be stabilized. The proper holding time should be selected based on the characteristics of the task that the system performs. The factors that reflect those characteristics are investigated. The fuzzy logic is employed to obtain the proper holding time for each event while the tole-operation system is in operation. The experimental results presented in this paper verify effectiveness of the proposed method.

The construction automation provides safer and more productive working environment of construction site. We developed the automation system of bolting operation for high-rise building in the previous research. However, this system has a weak point that the operation has to be processed in the air with the operator in the cabin. This weakness leads operators to considerably dangerous environment. Therefore, we proposed the tele-operation system in order to supplement this weak point. Furthermore, it leads more effective operation by application of more intuitive controller; spherical coordinate based Master Arm than the joystick in the Mobile Bolting Robot system. These proposed system and controller were evaluated based on Fitts' law paradigm, which is a general estimation method of speed accuracy of task. Through the experimental results, new developed tele-operation system is compared with the actual operation and it discloses distinctions between two systems. As a result, it is found that new developed teleoperation system can be possible to replace the operation in the cabin.

밀폐 및 차폐 공간을 갖는 핫셀에서 사용후핵연료와 같은 고방사선 물질을 취급하고 있으며, 핵주기시설에서 마스터-슬레이브 매니퓰레이터는 원격취급장비로서 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 차세대관리공정의 디지털 목업을 구축하고 원격유지보수를 위한 매니퓰레이터의 작업영역 및 작업분석을 수행하였다. 실제 환경과 동일한 가상 작업환경을 갖는 디지털 목업은 3차원 그래픽으로 모델링된 공정장치 및 원격 취급장비들로 구성된다. 모델링된 매니퓰레이터는 기구학 및 동작범위에 대한 속성을 부여되고 외부 입력장치는 space ball을 사용하여 매니퓰레이터의 동작을 구현하였다. 또한 Tele-operation 인터페이스를 사용하여 6축 외부 입력장치와 연계한 시스템을 개발하였으며 외부 입력에 따른 매니퓰레이터의 동작에 대한 동기는 만족할 만한 응답을 보였다. 이는 가상환경에서 작업자 교육을 위한 시스템 개발에 유용할 것이다.

In hazardous conditions, where entry of human operators is restricted, such as high radiation regions in nuclear facilities, a lot of remote inspections and remote handling tasks must be performed. In this study, the stereo imaging system has been developed and the remote handling technique, has been studied to enhance the efficiency of tele-operation. The nozzle dam handling robot is one of the most important robots applied to nuclear facility. The robot will be equipped with the developed stereo imaging system. The stereo imaging system will outstandingly improve the tele installing/removal tasks for nozzle dam.

This paper presents a novel driving system by the humanoid robot to drive a vehicle in disaster response situations. To enhance robot's capability for substituting human activities in responding to natural and man-made disaster, the one of prerequisite skills for the rescue robot is the mounted mobility to maneuver a vehicle safely in disaster site. Therefore, our driving system for the humanoid is developed in order to steer a vehicle through unknown obstacles even under poor communication conditions such as time-delay and black-out. Especially, the proposed system includes a tele-manipulation interface and stable navigation strategies. First, we propose a new type of path estimation method to overcome limited communication. Second, we establish navigation strategies when the operator cannot recognize obstacles based on Dynamic Window Approach. The effectiveness of the proposed developments is verified through simulation and experiments, which demonstrate suitable system for driving a vehicle in disaster response.

The control rod drive mechanisms in a reactor head are arranged too narrow for a human worker to approach. Moreover, the working environment is in high radiation area. In order to inspect defections in the surfaces of the reactor head and welding parts, a visual inspection device that can approach such a narrow and high radiation area is required. This paper introduces a tele-operated mobile robot for visual inspection of a reactor head, which has pan/tilt camera, fixed rear camera, ultrasonic collision detection system, and so on. Moreover, the host controller and digital video logging system are developed and integrated control software is also developed. The robot is operated by a wireless control, which gives flexibility for the inspection.

A concept of the semi-autonomous tele-weeding-system which performs weeding tasks through co-operation of human and machine intelligence is proposed. The tele-weeding system consists of weeding robot, communication networks and operating server. The images of plants taken by the weeding robot are transferred through the communication networks to the human operator. Positions of the weeds are indicated at the operating host by the operator and transferred back to the weeding robot. Such position informations are converted to the world space and the weeding is done based on the robot intelligence. Feasibility of such concept has been tested through development of a laboratory model of the system.

In this paper, a prototype tele-operative system with a mobile base was developed in order to automate cultivation of house melon. A man-machine interactive hybrid decision-making system via tele-operative task interface was proposed to overcome limitations of computer image recognition. Identifying house melon including position data from the field image was critical to automate cultivation. And it was not simple especially when melon is covered partly by leaves and stems. The developed system was composed of 5 major modules: (a) main remote monitoring and task control module, (b) wireless remote image acquisition and data transmission module, (c) three-wheel mobile base mounted with a 4 dof articulated type robot manipulator (d) exchangeable modular type end tools, and (e) melon storage module. The system was operated through the graphic user interface using touch screen monitor and wireless data communication among operator, computer, and machine. Once task was selected from the task control and monitoring module, the analog signal of the color image of the field was captured and transmitted to the host computer using R.F. module by wireless. A sequence of algorithms to identify location and size of a melon was performed based on the local image processing. Laboratory experiment showed the developed prototype system showed the practical feasibility of automating various cultivating tasks of house melon.
