as a robot could be stable statically standing on three or more legs, a six legged walking robot can be highly flexible in movements and perform different missions without dealing with serious kinematic and dynamic problems. an experimental six legged walking robot with 18 degrees of freedom is studied and built in this paper. the kinematic and gait analysis formulations are demonstrated by an e...

This paper presents an autonomous robot designed to interact socially with human “parents”. A human infant’s emotions and drives play an important role in generating meaningful interactions with the caretaker, regulating these interactions to maintain an environment suitable for the learning process, and assisting the caretaker in satisfying the infant’s drives. For our purposes, the ability to...

in this project guidance and control of underwater robot, including three engines and propeller attached to it, by fuzzy control has been investigated. fuzzy control is done based on human experience and requiered laws. the robot can also be controlled and guided by the user. this robot may be used in sea or swimming pool environment for finding goal point and locate in desired direction. in ad...

In this paper, a new method was proposed for the navigation of a mobile robot in an unknown dynamic environment. The robot could detect only a limited radius of its surrounding with its sensors and it went on the shortest null space (SNS) toward the goal. In the case of no obstacle, SNS was a direct path from the robot to goal; however, in the presence of obstacles, SNS was a space around the r...

In the large area of autonomous robot navigation, encompassing map creation, path planning, and self-localization, we develop the idea of a simple autonomous agent relying only on vision information. Our integrated navigation system replicates some functions of natural systems, as using little a-priori knowledge, on board computation, no omni-directional vision. Since our goal is essentially to...

This study designed and developed a bionic mimosa robot with delicate leaf swing behaviors. For different swing behaviors, this study developed a variety of situations, in which the bionic mimosa robot would display different postures. The core technologies used were Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), plastic material, and an intelligent control device. The technology particularly focused on the SMAs ...
