The proposed fault detection and reconfiguration control is based on a parameter estimation approach which drives a reconfigurable control system (RCS) build with the Pseudo-inverse method. The complete setup is implemented under Hardware-in-the-loop-simulation (HILS). The PC104 board with QNX RTOS platform is used for simulation.

This approach is aiming at motor imagery detection in electroencephalogram (EEG). Particularly, this method calculates the derivatives of the original signals and then applies common spatial analysis (CSP) to each order of derivatives. Variances of the spatially filtered signal after taking logarithm are used as features. Quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) is applied to the feature vectors and classifies the vectors into different categories. We evaluate our approach using data consisting of two classes: left-hand and right-hand movement imageries from three subjects, and comparison between the proposed method and applying CSP analysis to the whole set of EEG signal directly is presented. Our results show that the proposed method generates more discriminant features in this motor imagery classification issue.","PeriodicalId":385925,"journal":{"name":"2011 8th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124027869","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}

Also, convolution method is able to guarantee the trajectory to satisfy given constraints. Since mobile robots are equipped with driving motors as control inputs, ultimately, motor's specifications are utilized for convolution trajectory generation.","PeriodicalId":385925,"journal":{"name":"2011 8th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI)","volume":"176 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126257663","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}

In order to design a safe robot arm, the collision safety evaluation must be conducted prior to the construction of the robot arm to compute the necessary design parameters. Previous evaluation methods required the use of the actual robot, which are both time consuming and expensive. In this study we propose a new human-robot collision model and a collision safety evaluation method which does not require the use of the actual robot. A human-robot collision model is developed, and the collision safety of a 3 DOF planar robot arm is evaluated. Then, using the evaluation results, the design of the robot arm is modified to ensure the collision safety. The proposed evaluation method enables the appropriate design parameters for a safe robot arm to be determined in a short period of time at the minimal cost.","PeriodicalId":385925,"journal":{"name":"2011 8th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI)","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128109208","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}
