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...

The ever-growing use of various vehicles for transportation, on the one hand, and the statistics ofsoaring road accidents resulting from human error, on the other hand, reminds us of the necessity toconduct more extensive research on the design, manufacturing and control of driver-less intelligentvehicles. For the automatic control of an autonomous vehicle, we need its dynamic...

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...

This article presents a project that aims at constructing a biologically inspired amphibious snake-like robot. The robot is designed to be capable of anguilliform swimming like the lamprey in water and serpentine locomotion like a snake on ground. Both the structure and the controller of the robot are inspired by elongate vertebrates. In particular, the locomotion of the robot is controlled by ...

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...

There are many circumstance limits to human like extreme radioactivity, temperature, chemical toxicity, pressure and so on. But, we need to detect and research region for making our sure safe and state. During long time, human have made a robot that have multi-joint biped robot and mobile robot using wheels. And now, that is developing but it still has some problem that is occurred by condition...

WorkPartner is the prototype of a lightweight mobile service robot designed to work interactively with humans in outdoor environment. Mobility is based on a hybrid system, which combine benefits of both legged and wheeled locomotion to provide at the same time good terrain negotiating capability and large velocity range. The working tool is a two hand human like manipulator which can be used fo...

Takao Someya et al. report the development of a f lexible, electronic skin capable of detecting both pressure and temperature, an advance that may provide robots with a humanlike sense of touch. The research team previously developed artificial skin that could sense pressure but lacked the elasticity and other characteristics of human skin. To improve the artificial skin material, Someya et al....
