چکیده

have achieved a world-first success in their joint development of a tele-operated humanoid robot that wears protective clothing and drives an industrial vehicle (backhoe) outdoors in lieu of a human operator as shown in Fig. 1. It shows us that a humanoid robot can expand its capability by using machines designed for the human even in the rain. The use of a tele-operated humanoid robot has a possibility to make all machines tele-operated without any modifications and do also incidental tasks instead of the human.

A Tele-Operated Humanoid Robot Drives a Lift Truck

We have been developing new abilities of humanoid robot to realize proxy drives of a lift truck. Construction machines such as a lift truck play an important role in many tasks, but sometimes the environments are too hazardous for human operators. If a tele-operated humanoid robot can drive a construction machine, it can work at a dangerous place. This humanoid robot operator has two advantages...

Takao Ueno , Takuya Gokyuu and Ken Endou

This is the first successful trial of remotely controlling a humanoid robot to drive an industrial vehicle in lieu of a human operator. These results were achieved through the development of three technologies: 1) remote-control technology to instruct the humanoid to perform total-body movements under remote control 2) a remotecontrol system to execute tasks, and protection technology to protec...

Speech-driven lip motion generation for tele-operated humanoid robots

In order to tele-operate the lip motion of a humanoid robot (such as android) from the utterances of the operator, we developed a speech-driven lip motion generation method. The proposed method is based on the rotation of the vowel space, given by the first and second formants, around the center vowel, and a mapping to the lip opening degrees. The method requires the calibration of only one par...

Flexible Foot/Ankle Based on PKM with Force/Torque Sensor for Humanoid Robot

This paper describes the development of a novel humanoid robot foot/ankle based on an orientation Parallel Kinematic Mechanism for intelligent and flexible control. With three identical Universal-Prismatic-Spherical prismatic-actuated limbs and a central Universal-Revolute passive limb, the PKM can perform three degrees of freedom rotation motions. In order to enable the humanoid robot safely t...

Predictive Interfaces for Long-distance Tele-operations

Humanoid robots have a practical advantage over other robotic platforms for use in space-based construction and maintenance because they can share tools and work interactively with astronauts. A major disadvantage is that they are difficult to control due to the large number of degrees of freedom, which makes it difficult to synthesize autonomous behavior using conventional means. We address th...
