To facilitate the cell based robot research, we presented a micro-mechanical force measurement system for the biological muscle actuators, which utilize glucose as a power source for potential application in a human body or blood vessels. The system is composed of a micro-manipulator, a force transducer with a glass probe, a signal processor, an inverted microscope and video recoding system. Using this measurement system, the contractile force and frequency of the cardiac myocytes were measured in real time and the magnitude of the contractile force of each cardiac myocyte on a different condition was compared. From the quantitative experimental results, we estimated that the force of cardiac myocytes is about $20{\sim}40\;{\mu}$N, and showed that there is difference between the control cells and the micro-patterned cells.

This paper describes a novel navigation algorithm using a locomotion interface with two 6-DOF parallel robotic manipulators. The suggested novel navigation system can induce user's real walking and generate realistic visual feedback during navigation, using robotic manipulators. For realistic visual feedback, the virtual environment is designed with three components; 3D object modeler for buildings and terrains, scene manager and communication manager component. The walking velocity of the user is directly translated to VR actions for navigation. Finally, the functions of the RPC interface are utilized for each interaction mode. The suggested navigation system can allow a user to explore into various virtual terrains with real walking and realistic visual feedback.

This paper compares the control techniques for position control experiments of a fixible robot moving in a vertical plane. The flexible manipulator is modeled as an Euler-beroulli beam. Elastic deformantion is representedusing the assumed model method. A comparison function which satisfies all geometric and natural boundary conditions of a cantilever beam with an end mass is used as an assumed mode shape. Lagrange's equation is utilized for the development of a discretized model. Control schemes are developed using PID control,pole placement control and discrete Linear Quadratic Regulater(LQQ). The effectiveness of the developed control schems are compared using computer simulation in view of practical experiment. The simulation results show that PID control is very effective in practical implementation.

Recently, dynamic recurrent neural networks(DRNN) for identification of nonlinear dynamic systems have been researched extensively. In general, dynamic backpropagation was used to adjust the weights of neural networks. But, this method requires many complex calculations and has the possibility of falling into a local minimum. So, we propose a new approach to identify nonlinear dynamic systems using DRNN. In order to adjust the weights of neurons, we use evolution strategies, which is a method used to solve an optimal problem having many local minimums. DRNN trained by evolution strategies with mutation as the main operator can act as a plant emulator. And the fitness function of evolution strategies is based on the difference of the plant's outputs and DRNN's outputs. Thus, this new approach at identifying nonlinear dynamic system, when applied to the simulation of a two-link robot manipulator, demonstrates the performance and efficiency of this proposed approach.

It is very hard to identify the fuzzy rules and tune the membership functions of the fuzzy reasoning in fuzzy systems modeling .We propose a method which canautomatically identify the fuzzy rules and tune the membership functions of fuzzy reasoning simultaneously using artifical neural network. In this model,fuzzy rules are identified by backpropagation algorithm. The feasibility of the method is simulated by a simple robot manipulator.

A visual servoing method has been proposed based on disturbance observer to eliminate the effect of the off-diagonal component of image feature Jacobian, since performance indices such as measurement sensitivity of visual features, sensitivity of the control to noise and controllability could be improved when an image feature Jacobian was given as a block diagonal matrix. In this paper, experimental results of disturbance observer-based visual servoing are discussed where Samsung FARAMAN-AS1 6-axis industrial robot manipulator is employed. Also, the feature saturator is proposed to stabilize the disturbance observer loop by saturating the differential changes of the image features.

본 연구에서는 n-차 비선형 로보트 매니퓰레이터에서 링크의 동특성에 액류웨이터의 동특성을 포함시킨 복합모델(Combined Model)의 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 여기서 이 복합 모델의 알고리즘은 고속운전 및 빈번한 부하의 변동시에 중요한 역할을 하는 액류웨이터 모터의 동특성 방정식과 매니퓰레이터 링크의 운동을 묘사하는 동특성 방정식을 포함시킨 알고리즘을 의미한다. 또한 제안된 모델은 선영궤환 및 감결합 변환(Feedback Linearizing and Decoupling Transformation : FLDT)법을 이용하여 선형시스템으로 변환시켰다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고속운전 및 빈번한 부하의 변동에도 액류웨이터 모터의 전압과 전류를 조절함으로써 효과적으로 제어할 수 있게 하는 매니퓰레이터 모델 알고리즘을 개발하는데 그 목적이 있다.

Chattering-free sliding mode control is derived from the reaching law method and Lyapunov stability theorem. Its control input Is composed of continuous term and discontinuous term. By the combination of these terms, the robustness and tracking performance can be improved and the chattering can be avoided. But in the reaching mode, the sliding mode control is sensitive to the modeling uncertainties, parameter variations and disturbances, also it needs a large control input. These result in poor transient responses. In this paper, to overcome these problems in the reaching mode, a time-varying sliding surface is proposed. And it is applied to a 2-link SCARA robot manipulator, experimental results show that the transient response is improved and its ...

In this paper, a robust observer design method for nonlinear multi input multi-output(MINO) plants is presented. This method enables the extension of the time delay observer (TDO) for nonlinear SISO plants in the phase variable form to MIMO plants. The designed TDO reconstructs the states of the plant expressed in the generalized observability canonical form (GOBCF), yet requiring neither the transformation of a plant, nor the real time computation coordinates, the observer turned out to be computationally efficient and easy to design for nonlinear MIMO plants. In a simulation of a two-link manipulator with flexible joints, the control performances using TDO appeared to be similar to those using actual states and superior to those using numerical differentiation. Finally, in an experiment with a robot, it was confirmed that the TDO reconstructs the states reliability and TDO can be effectively used in a real closed-loop system.

A high speed control system for a telerobot using DSP is developed. The system is designed to resolve computational burden in advanced algorithms. The design is assumed to h ave no specific algorithm and robot configuration. The system is composed of a teaching box, a DSP board, a set of servo drivers and 16 bit microcomputer system. The teaching box is designed as a man-machine interface, which has two joysticks with three degrees of freedom for velocity generation in Cartesian space. The DSP board, i.e. DSP56000ADS based on a 10.25MIPS digital signal processor, DSP56001, computes the inverse Jacobian matrix which transforms Cartesian velocity into joint velocity. A resolved motion rate control algorithm for a 5 degrees of freedom manipulator was implemented. About 100 Hz sampling rate was achieved in this system.
