Most humanoid robots have highly complicated structure and design of robots that are very similar to human is extremely difficult. In this paper, modelling of a general and comprehensive algorithm for control of humanoid robots is presented using Colored Petri Nets. For keeping dynamic balance of the robot, combination of Gyroscope and Accelerometer sensors are used in algorithm. Image processi...

In the present paper a software environment for the study and verification of robot control solutions is described. Such a tool is based on closed loop modelling and simulation in the integrated ADAMS-Simulink environment. The proposed method is applied to the study and optimization of the control of a prototypical system, constituted by a reconfigurable robot with parallel architecture and by ...

Human-Robot Interaction requires coordination strategies that allow human and artificial agencies to interpret and interleave their actions. In this paper we consider the potential of artificial emotions to serve as coordination devices in human-robot teams. We propose an approach for modelling action selection based on artificial emotions and signalling a robot’s internal state to human team m...

This paper presents an improved modelling method for a water jet‐based multi‐propeller propulsion system. In our previous work, the modelling experiments were only carried out in 2D planes, whose experimental results had poor agreement when we wanted to control the propulsive forces in 3D space directly. This research extends the 2D modelling described in the authors’ previo...

Embodied intelligence (intelligence that requires and leverages a physical body) is well-known paradigm in soft robotics, but its mathematical description consequent computational modelling remain elusive, with need for models can be used design control purposes. We argue filling this gap will enable full uptake of embodied robots. provide concise guide to the main approaches, strategies, descr...

This film describes the co-simulation aspect between virtual and real robots, for detection and isolation of actuators and transmission channel faults. 1. INTRODUCTION In this film, a Co-simulation between a virtual and a real mobile robot is presented. It concerns the on line telediagnosis of transmission channel and actuators faults of a mobile robot. Two innovated points are given through th...

gait rehabilitation using body weight support on a treadmill is a recommended rehabilitation technique for neurological injuries, such as spinal cord injury. in this paper, a new robotic orthosis is presented for treadmill training. in the presented design the criteria such as low inertia of robot components, backdrivability, high safety and degrees of freedom based on human walking are conside...

In this paper a discrete competitive neural network is introduced to calculate the optimal robot arm movements for processing a considered commitment of tasks, using the branch and bound methodology. A special method based on the branch and bound methodology, modified with a travelling path for adapting in the neural network, is introduced. The main neural network of the system consists of diff...

Achieving robot autonomy is a fundamental objective in Mobile Robotics. However in order to realise this goal, a robot must be aware of its location within an environment. Therefore, the localisation problem (i.e.,the problem of determining robot pose relative to a map of its environment) must be addressed. This paper proposes a new biology-inspired approach to this problem. It takes advantage ...
