In the device, a soft actuator that can move with both longer strokes and a larger force is useful. In the previous study, a pneumatic linear stepping actuator (PLSA) that can push and pull a flexible rod while changing the gripping position of a tube was developed. In this study, a variable step type PLSA is proposed and tested. Moreover, the development of a passive exercise device for the hip joint using three PLSAs and one connecter connected with three flexible rods and a knee supporter is described. The tracking position control of the knee supporter based on an analytical model is also described. The control system using developed actuators is also introduced.","PeriodicalId":178614,"journal":{"name":"J.

Here, we describe a grid map correction method based on the surrounding conditions of each cell to avoid area misclassification.

Remarkably, the device does not require air suction and can be used during the daytime. The device can be placed on a chair or wheelchair and used whenever a cared person sits. Reflecting on the views of caregivers and the observations of the cared persons, the device was designed to be as thin and flexible as possible. In experiments to evaluate the response, it was confirmed to respond not only to simulated urine but also to actual excrement. From the results of the clinical experiments, the excretion detection model achieved an accuracy rate of 76%. Although this figure is close to the approximately 80% accuracy rate of an existing product H, it must be kept in mind that this accuracy rate is limited to urination owing to the limited training data in this study. These findings suggest that the device used with a cushion provides a valid means of excretion detection during daytime hours in a non-wearing and non-invasive manner, although its use is currently limited to urination.","PeriodicalId":178614,"journal":{"name":"J.

Although the straight-fiber-type pneumatic artificial muscle (SF-PAM), a kind of pneumatic artificial muscle, is lightweight and exhibits high contractile force and contraction percentage, its contractile force decreases as contraction increases. To compensate for the decrease in the SF-PAM contractile force, we developed a noncircular pulley and integrated it into the manipulator driven by a wire pulley mechanism. Because this noncircular pulley is designed in accordance with the output characteristics of SF-PAM, the contraction force of SF-PAM can be converted into manipulator torque efficiently. In addition, the radius of the noncircular pulley is expressed as a function, which can be incorporated into a numerical model for the manipulator’s controller. Subsequently, simulation and experimentation to verify the proposed method showed that, when using the same actuator, the manipulator with a noncircular pulley can optimize both output torque and range of motion better than that with a conventional circular pulley. However, a few differences between simulation results and experimental results were observed. These differences were caused by SF-PAM stretching which was not considered in the model. This drawback can be overcome by improving the SF-PAM and the numerical model in future studies. We believe that this study will provide designers of robots that coexist with humans with a high degree of freedom.","PeriodicalId":178614,"journal":{"name":"J.

A human-centric system could be a solution to these problems and promote coexistence with humans. Therefore, we aimed to develop a robot system using smart devices, which are essential for the Internet of things (IoT) technology, to provide services, such as information support and monitoring. As the development and application of smart devices become more sophisticated, a hyperconnected society will finally be realized through the development of smart-device-centered robots and their connection to peripheral devices. A hyperconnected society is one in which people, things, and data are connected. Personal mobility is developing and converging with robotic technology to the point where a large mobile robot can board a person. These robot technologies can be connected to wireless networks to provide organically connected services. In the era of Society 5.0, the connection among smart devices, robot systems, and mobility technology is still developing and will be a new paradigm in the development of human-centric systems in the future. Therefore, this study introduces the creation of a human-centric system using a robot system and a mobility system based on the IoT. Finally, we present several examples of the effectiveness of the proposed system and discuss its applicability.","PeriodicalId":178614,"journal":{"name":"J.

Highly accurate location information is required for autonomous navigation of mobile robots. A typical method of acquiring location information is to use a Kalman filter for position estimation. The Kalman filter is a maximum-likelihood estimation method that assumes normally distributed noise. However, non-normally distributed GNSS multipath noise that frequently occurs in urban environments causes the Kalman filter to break down, and degrades the estimation performance. Other GNSS/IMU localization methods capable of lane-level estimation in urban environments use wheel speed sensors, which are unsuitable for the present situation. In this study, we aim to improve the performance of lane-level localization by adding a vehicle speed estimation function to adapt the method to those requiring wheel speed sensors. The proposed method optimizes time-series data to accurately compensate for accelerometer bias errors and reduce GNSS multipath noise. The evaluation confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method, with improved velocity and position estimation performance compared with the Kalman filter method.","PeriodicalId":178614,"journal":{"name":"J.

If the desired yaw-rate response is realized, good autonomous driving can be realized. The gain-scheduled controller should be designed because vehicle has time-variant properties. However, it is difficult to design gain-scheduled controller in the case where vehicle parameters are unknown. To solve this problem, we expand virtual internal model tuning (VIMT) so as to realize desired yaw-rate responses. VIMT can tune the feedback controller by using one-shot experiment data. The processing cost is extremely low because the controller parameter can be obtained by using least square methods.
