A motion copying system is a candidate of the robotic technology. The motion copying system is composed of a motion saving system and a motion loading system. By using the motion saving system, human motion can be saved as haptic information. The motion loading system reconstructs the saved haptic data in chronological order. By using the motion loading system, spacelike pattern (trajectory) and timelike pattern (time cycle) of the saved motion can be reconstructed. When the reproduction speed of the loading system can be changed arbitrarily, the working efficiency can be improved. Therefore, in this paper, the motion reproduction system including the time scaling is proposed. The time scaling is defined as expansion and reduction of the motion timelike pattern. The proposed reproduction system enables to change the timelike pattern arbitrarily while the spacelike pattern is unchanged. The validity of the proposed method is confirmed by experiments.","PeriodicalId":256385,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115380956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SOI wafer used had a sandwich structure of a 0.2 µm thick top p-type Si layer, 0.5 µm thick buried oxide (BOX) layer and 250µm Si substrate. The piezoresistive strain sensitivity element in the sensors is a a-Si<inf>x</inf>C<inf>y</inf> thin-film resistor or a Si p-type resistor formed on SOI substrate. Gauge factor (GF) measurements were done using the beam-bending method. One resistor of each type was bonded near the clamped edge of a stainless steel cantilever beam and on the free edge were applied different forces. The electrical resistance of each resistor was measured without applied load on the beam and during subsequent tensile load. The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) also was investigated from room temperature up to 250°C. The results indicate that the a-Si<inf>x</inf>C<inf>y</inf> thin-film resistor has a GF of 48 and a TCR of 35 ppm/°C whereas p-type Si on SOI substrate has gauge factor of 22 and TCR of 140 ppm/°C.","PeriodicalId":256385,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116097337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The laminates we have designed and fabricated are based on liquid crystal polymers (LCP) with photodefinable bonding materials and various electroformed metals. The choice of PCBMEMS was driven by the requirement of a low investment process, a material capable of high levels of electronic systems integration, while providing a vacuum compatibility competitive to glass.
