This paper introduces a new wearable handling support system for a person who has trouble in motor capability of his or her upper limb. The support system is used as not only a support system to make his upper limb active in daily life but also a rehabilitation system to reduce manual loads of physical therapists. The system measures three rotation angles of patient's head: pitch, roll and yaw to control three degrees of freedom of the support system; angle of elbow joint, angle of wrist joint and hand close/open, respectively. Hemiplegia patient who has paralysis of one half of the patient body can use both arms cooperatively by wearing the handling support system on the paralysis side. In our experiments, the system helps pouring task from POP bottle to a glass, while an upper limb on paralysis side of a user grasps the POP bottle and the other upper limb grasps the glass.

This paper describes an energy-efficient swing-back control for the brachiation robot. In our previous work, the brachiation controller is composed of two actions: swing-back and locomotion. The purpose of swing-back is to excite a robot so as to achieve the locomotion successfully, while locomotion action is to move forward by releasing the ladder with the backward arm in the direction of locomotion and gripping the target ladder with another arm. However, the conventional swing-back control does not consider energy efficiency. Thus, a novel method to achieve an energy-efficient brachiation by exacting a swing-back during locomotion is proposed. Experimental results show that the proposed method can improve the locomotion action as much as over 30% in energy consumption.

The purpose of the present study is to control human biological rhythm and life cycle by optimization of awakening timing. We developed a wearable interface for controlling awakening time named "BRAC (Biological Rhythm based Awakening timing Controller)". BRAC could estimate bio-rhythm by pulse wave from finger tip and send awake signal to user.
An ordinary alarm clock operates according to set times that have to be set in advance. However, humans have a rhythm in their sleep, which affects one's sleep depth and wake-up timing. We consider the simplest way to control or reset human's biorhythm or life style is to optimize the awakening timing and the sleeping hours.
We examined the relationship between controlling awakening timing based on autonomous nerve rhythm and equilibrium function. Our findings suggest indicate that the prototype "BRAC" could evaluate user's biological rhythm and awakes user at the time optimized for physical function of equilibrium.

This paper describes a control for the brachiation robot with holonomic constraint. In our previous work, the brachiation controller is composed of two actions: swing-back and locomotion. The purpose of swing-back is to excite a robot so as to achieve the locomotion successfully, while locomotion action is to move forward by releasing the ladder with the backward arm in the direction of locomotion and gripping the target ladder with another arm. However, the conventional control can not apply brachiation in irregular ladder. And the convetional control was not consider energy efficiency. Thus, a novel method to achieve brachiation in irregular ladder and an energy-efficient brachiation by exacting a swing-back during locomotion is proposed. Experimental results show that the proposed method can improve the locomotion action as much as over 30% in energy consumption.

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

As one of dynamics-based control of biped walking, some researchers presented the control method to take advantage of robot dynamics directly by use of point-contact state between a robot and the ground. We proposed Passive Dynamic Autonomous Control (PDAC) previously[13] as one of point-contact methods. PDAC expresses the robot dynamics as an 1-dimensional autonomous system based on the two concepts: 1) point-contact 2) Virtual Constraint (proposed by Grizzle and Westervelt et al[8], [10]). We actually realized 3D dynamic walking by means of proposed method, however stability is not proved and the convergence domain is not clear. Thus, this paper finds the convergence domain of the previously proposed controller and proves the stability by the Liapunov Theory. Finally, the correctness of stability proof is confirmed by the numerical simulation.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a promising sensor for landmine detection, but there are two major problems to overcome. One is the non-planer(e.g. rough and/or undulating) ground surface. It remains irremovable clutters on a sub-surface image output from GPR. Geography adaptive scanning is useful to image objects beneath non-planer ground surface. The other problem is the distance between the antennas of GPR. When imaging the small objects such as an anti-personnel landmine close to antennas, it increases the nonlinearity of the relationship between the time for propagation and the depth of a buried object. In this paper, we modify Kirchhoff migration so as to account for not only the variation of height and pose of the sensor head, but also the antennas alignment of the vector radar. The validity of this method is discussed through application to the signals acquired in experiments.

Motion control of landmine detection vehicle equipped with low-ground-pressure tires

Most of landmine detection robots proposed before have been strongly restricted to locomote because they have not been able to enter the minefield. So we have proposed a mine detection vehicle which can enter minefield with low-ground-pressure tires and scan landmines directly using GPR. Low-ground-pressure tire decrease ground contact pressure. And we are intended to make accurate map that point out the position where landmines are buried. The position of the vehicle is able to be observed with internal sensors (for the posture measurement) and external sensors (for the position measurement). However, when controlling the vehicle, the sampling time of external sensors and communication time from external sensors to the vehicle cannot be disregarded. Exact position of the vehicle must be predicted with dynandcal model of the vehicle. We therefore propose dynamical model of the vehicle for low-ground-pressure vehicle. Based on experimental results, the dynamical model for low-ground-pressure vehicle is in consistency with acutual behavior of it.

Multi-locomotion robot - Energy-based motion control for dexterous brachiation

2005 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS 2006 IEEE

Event date： 2006

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

This paper introduces a multi-locomotion robot which has multiple types of locomotion. The robot is developed to achieve a bipedal walk, a quadrupedal walk and a brachiation, mimicking locomotion ways of a gorilla. It therefore has higher mobility by selecting a proper locomotion type according to its environment and purpose. In this paper we focus on brachiation mode and propose a control algorithm to realize stable and efficient continuous brachiation while the ultimate purpose of this study is to develop a unified control architecture which realize multiple types of dexterous locomotion like an animal as well as motion stability and efficiency. Swing control of brachiation according to the total energy of the system is one of key issues in order to realize the continuous brachiation, because the brachiation can be modeled as a pendulum-like motion and the amplitude of the oscillation determines whether the robot can grasp the target ladder or not. We propose an energy-based control algorithm and install it into the swing action controller. Experimental results show that the robot can successfully achieve smooth and continuous brachiation.

Proposal of smooth biped walking control by means of heel-off motion

Masahiro Doi, Takayuki Matsuno, Yasuhisa Hasegawa, Toshio Fukuda

2006 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA), VOLS 1-10 2006 IEEE

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

This paper proposes the control method of biped walking with heel-off motion. Heel-off motion made it possible to avoid the problem for the impact shock at foot-contact to break the stabilization of walking. The 3D motion is separated into lateral and sagittal motion and each motion is designed individually under the assumption that each motion is possible to be treated independently each other. We adopt the approximate 1-mass model in both planes and derive the dynamics based on these models. It is assumed that the lateral motion is relevant to heel-off motion. On the other hand, in the sagittal plane, there are two phases: 1) the center of rotation (contact point) is ankle joint. 2) the center of rotation is toe. In phase 2), heel-off motion is designed to diminish the impact shock at foot-contact. By applying PDAC to the dynamics, phase around the contact point can be derived. By means of this phase of dynamics, it is possible to inspect heel-off motion analytically. We design the stabilizing controller for each plane and confirm the convergency of dynamics with the numerical simulation.

Energy efficient swing-back control for brachiation robot

Toshio Fukuda, Shigetaka Kojima, Kousuke Sekiyama, Yasuhisa Hasegawa

2006 IEEE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON MICRO-NANOMECHATRONICS AND HUMAN SCIENCE 2006 IEEE

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

In this paper, we propose an energy efficient swing-back control for the brachiation robot. In the previous work, brachiation controller was composed of two actions: swing-back and locomotion. The purpose of swing-back is to excite robot so as to achieve locomotion successfully. While locomotion action is to move forward by releasing a brunk with arm in moving direction and griping the target brunch with other arm. However, energy efficiency has not been considered in the previous swing-back control, hence we propose a novel method to achieve energy-effecient brachiation by exacting a swing-back during locomotion. Experimental results show that the proposed method can improve the locomotion action as much as over 30% in energy consumption.

3D dynamic walking based on the inverted pendulum model with two degree of underactuation

M Doi, Y Hasegawa, T Fukuda

2005 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-4 2005 IEEE

Event date： 2005

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

In this paper, the new control method to realize 3D natural dynamic walking based on the 3D robot inherent dynamics is proposed. The proposed method describes robot dynamics by use of a 3D inverted pendulum model and applies Passive Dynamic Autonomous Control(PDAC) to it. By utilizing the polar coordinate system to express the robot state around the contact-point between robot and the ground and applying PDAC, it is possible to express the 3-dimensional dynamics as 1-dimensional autonomous system. Due to autonomy, this ID dynamics has the conservative quantity named PDAC Constant. We build the stabilizing controller by means of PDAC Constant and analyze the walking based on the ID dynamics. Finally the proposed method is tested by experiment.

Realization of 3-dimensional dynamic walking based on the assumption of point-contact

M Doi, Y Hasegawa, T Fukuda

2005 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA), VOLS 1-4 2005 IEEE

Event date： 2005

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

In this paper, we develop the lateral motion control based on Passive Dynamic Autonomous Control (PDAC) in order to solve two following problem in previous paper: 1) the steplength control in the sagittal plane results in the delay of tine step cycle since walking period is not controlled taking the sagittal control effect into consideration 2) error of the lateral dynamics is big since the effect of the sagittal motion on the lateral dynamics is neglected. At first, the walking period is controlled, by adjusting the amplitude of side-to-side rocking motion. Secondly, the value to lengthen the lateral inverted pendulum is decided according to the sagittal motion effect on it By means of this new lateral control in addition to sagittal steplength control, the 3-dimensional stable dynamic walking based on the robot inherent dynamics is realized.

Insertion of long peg into tandem shallow hole using search trajectory generation without force feedback

T Matsuno, T Fukuda, Y Hasegawa

2004 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1- 5, PROCEEDINGS 2004 IEEE

Event date： 2004

Language：English Presentation type：Oral presentation (general)

In this paper we propose a method to insert a long peg into a tandem shallow hole using search trajectory generation without force feedback. Automation of the assembly in a factory progressed in recent years. However the many processes where workers should assemble products by themselves still remain now. We call these processes "difficult assembly". The difficult assembly has the feature that a mating part has a unique shape. The RCC (Remote Center Compliance) is an effective method for assembly, but it is no longer useful on the condition that mating parts are complex. The RCC device has no durability since it is a product made from rubber, in addition a force sensor is expensive. If a robot could accomplish the assembly task without using those devices there is a advantage in terms of expense and durability. In our approach, the manipulator system inserts a long peg into the hole with switching the trajectory generation methods depending on the task condition.
