Reports a novel high-speed/high-accuracy robot: two permanent, linear, DC servomotors drive a 2-DOF planar parallel mechanism to realize high-speed/high-accuracy planar motion. In the design of the planar parallel mechanism, considering the impacted structure and suppressing residual vibration, we separately adopt simulated annealing algorithm and finite element analysis software ANSYS to optimize...Show More
Ego-motion estimation is a key issue of outdoor mobile robot navigation, especially in the demand of moving object tracking. In this paper, we proposed correspondence based method, which apply iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm to match feature points on ground plane. However the outliers in the scene contribute false measurement for estimation, thus we introduce a stereovision-based method t...Show More
Instead of using the tedious process of robot teaching, an off-line path planning algorithm based on wave expansion method has been developed for industrial robots. The continuous Cartesian W-space in world coordinates is discretized into an equidistant 3D-grid and then the free points and obstacle points are indicated by different numbers. By use of the wave expansion method, the free points are ...Show More
We present an omnidirectional vision system we have implemented to provide our mobile robot with a fast tracking and robust localization capability. An algorithm is proposed to do reconstruction of the environment from the omnidirectional image and global localization of the robot in the context of the middle size league RoboCup field. This is accomplished by learning a set of visual landmarks suc...Show More
Aimed at the current use of CGI as server-side technology in the Web-based telerobotic system while CGI not only has shortages of platform dependency and low efficiency, but also is hard to develop. This paper presents the use of Java Servlet technology instead and applying the MVC design pattern to construct a Web-based telerobotic system made up of a HTTP server, an image server and a robot serv...Show More
A difficulty-adjustable, strong-interactive teleoperation system - Nankai telegame system (Nankai teleoperation and telegame robot platform), which can be used to test the control strategy and control algorithm by adjusting difficulty of the telegame system, is explored in this paper. Thus we can find out which kind of control strategy and control algorithm is suitable for different network enviro...Show More
To promote the bonding quality and the automatic level of the solar cell assembly, according to the characteristic of the space solar cell bonding operation's process, an adhesive dispensing robot used for the bonding operation is studied in this article. And we put forward a way to continuously dispense adhesives, which can control the thickness of the adhesive layer on solar cell and even the po...Show More
Self-localization is an essential component of any autonomous mobile robot system. This paper presents a fast and robust feature-based approach to mobile robot on-the-fly global localization in dynamic environments. A robust feature extraction and correspondence algorithm was introduced to extract the landmarks of the environment and to triangulate the robot's positions. The approach take into acc...Show More
When designing reliable telerobot systems via network, one important problem is how to overcome the influence of variable network time delay on exceptions handling such as obstacle avoidance, and real-time tasks such as object location. An agent-based telerobotics using multi-sensor fusion is presented, to improve the intelligence and real-time of telerobotics via network. The structure and functi...Show More
A smart transducer network consisting of a set of transducer nodes with digital bus was introduced in this paper for robot sensing system real-time measurement and control. The design idea was based on IEEE1451 transducer interface standards, which utilize existing controlling network technology and develop standardized connection methods for smart transducers to controlling networks. Some require...Show More
By using the theories of fuzzy mathematics and system reliability, the paper discusses how to make the decision of reliability about X-ray inspection real time imaging pipeline robot (RTIPR), furthermore gives the synthetic and quantifying method of fuzzy factors, which influence the reliability of robot system. Finally the reliability apportionment method of X-ray inspection RTIPR based on fuzzy ...Show More
With the development of soccer robots, application of embedded real-time operating system (RTOS) in the control system of robots is attracting more and more considerable attention for meeting the increased requirements of complexity and real time. A control system of intelligent robocup was developed, which was based on the embedded RTOS of MicroC/OS-II and the digital signal processing (DSP) chip...Show More
Tractor-trailer mobile robot system is composed of a tractor and multiple trailers. Path planning for this kind of robot system is much more complex than that of single body robot because of its special structure. This paper analyzes the trajectories when the tractor-trailer robot system follows some representative kinds of paths; propose the concept of though-width and its calculation method. Bas...Show More
A robot workstation for welding nozzle onto header is introduced. Consisting of a welding robot and a measuring robot, the workstation implements boiler header welding automatically. Then, a method to generate welding track for the welding robot is presented, and collision avoidance for the welding robot within limited space by artificial potential field is discussed. Finally, the collision avoida...Show More
First, the image Jacobian matrix (IJM) for GRB-400 robot was established. Then an augmented design plant model was formed using the GRB-400 plant model and the inverse IJM. And then a control algorithm was applied to the augmented design plant to form a steady visual servo motion feedback control system. The main effort was made to develop a new nonlinear strategy of direct path planning for the r...Show More
