Fin plays an essential role in the movement of underwater robots, providing operation, control, and efficient propulsion. This research aims to design and develop a unique robotic fin for underwater robots to improve their handling and propulsion efficiency. The goal is to improve the power density and propulsion efficiency of underwater survey robots. The study is based on a comprehensive analysis of experience and a performance evaluation. Five types of tail fin models were used in the study. The experimental results showed that the performance of the fin design can be compared with existing configurations under different conditions. The best design parameters will be determined by analyzing the experimental results. The results of this study will contribute to underwater robotics by providing a concept of the principles of fin design and its impact on the performance of robotics.","PeriodicalId":51661,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics","volume":"30 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955115","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}

We assumed that the arm robot is controlled by position commands at intervals of a few milliseconds, and that the mobile robot is guided by a simple straightforward linear trajectory. Ott, Borst, Bäuml, and Hirzinger proposed a push-opening method using impedance control in a cylindrical coordinate system for the arm robot. With this control, when the mobile robot advances toward and through the door, the arm robot moves passively and properly pushes the door open. However, their method is unsuitable for the above type of robot. Thus, we propose a method with two modifications: the use of admittance control and the improvement of force relaxation by considering a force obtained through a novel force decomposition. Furthermore, the proposed method was demonstrated not only in the push-opening movement but also in the push-closing, pull-opening, and pull-closing movements.","PeriodicalId":51661,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics","volume":"42 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955528","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}

A previous study developed a ceiling mobile robot called HanGrawler 2. It can travel at a high speed of 1.0 m/s to compete with ground vehicles. However, it occasionally fails during high-speed travel. This study aims to improve the reliability of starting, accelerating, and traveling at high speed. Optical motion capture is used to observe the crawler behavior of HanGrawler 2. The observation of the crawler behavior revealed that the crawler moves on an inflated trajectory during the high-speed movement. In addition, the experimental results show that the collision is not caused by the inflation, but by the push-in timing. The reliability of high-speed travel was improved by installing an encoder and optimizing the push-in timing in accordance with speed fluctuations.","PeriodicalId":51661,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics","volume":"66 20","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138957169","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 process of swallowing includes a very fast reflexive motion; there are difficulties in analyzing its mechanism even with the latest medical imaging technologies. In recent years, a simulator, named “Swallow Vision®,” has been developed from medical images such as MRI and CT to clearly visualize swallowing motion. It enables us to understand the kinesiology and analyze the motion of organs in swallowing. By using kinematic data obtained from this simulator and referring to medical knowledge, we develop a robotic simulator that has the potential to mimic human swallowing motion. The robot is able to perform tongue depressor and pharynx contraction to swallow food bolus. A performance evaluation is conducted to determine whether it is possible to swallow food bolus properly or where the bolus remains when failing.","PeriodicalId":51661,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955424","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}

Value iteration is computationally more expensive than search methods used for navigation. However, it can perfectly calculate the expected cost-to-go from any point in a state space. From this cost data, a robot can know not only the optimal behavior at any position and orientation but also the appropriate detour path against suddenly appearing obstacles. This study implemented value iteration and investigated its properties through experiments with simulated and actual robots. Although its computational cost remained high, our implementation could operate a robot in an actual outdoor environment with 3,700 m2 free space.

Outdoor environments like parks, where vehicles cannot enter, present many three-dimensional terrains such as stairs and inclined surfaces, causing difficulty in achieving accurate environment recognition and autonomous movement. Furthermore, robots that navigate pedestrian walkways must be smaller and lighter than cars and also have a robust system capable of traversing steps and uneven surfaces and withstanding rainy weather. Currently, robots designed for paved roads are commercially available; however, robots capable of navigating park walkways are still in the research and development stage. Therefore, to accelerate the research and development of outdoor autonomous mobile robots, this study proposes the Navit(oo)n platform, designed for use in outdoor environments. This robot can be manufactured using easily obtainable parts, and all CAD data, circuit design data, and autonomous movement software are provided as open source.

For the autonomous movement of mobile robots, it is common to create an environmental map in advance and use it for localization. In this study, to investigate the usefulness of 3D environmental maps, we scanned physical environments using two different simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) approaches, specifically a wearable 3D scanner and a 3D LiDAR mounted on a robot. We used the scan data to create 3D environmental maps consisting of 3D point clouds. Wearable 3D scanners can be used to generate high-density and high-precision 3D point-cloud maps. The application of high-precision maps to the field of autonomous navigation is expected to improve the accuracy of self-localization. Navigation experiments were conducted using a robot, which was equipped with the maps obtained from the two approaches described. Autonomous navigation was achieved in this manner, and the performance of the robot using each type of map was assessed by requiring it to halt at specific landmarks set along the route. The high-density colored environmental map generated from the wearable 3D scanner’s data enabled the robot to perform autonomous navigation easily with a high degree of accuracy, showing potential for usage in digital twin applications.","PeriodicalId":51661,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics","volume":"16 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955933","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 point cloud for each scanline measured by the UAV scanner is repositioned on the piping axis, and the handheld scanner’s 3D point cloud is subsequently registered so that the center axis of the piping coincides with the UAV point cloud as a reference. The method proposed in this study was used to accurately reconstruct linear piping measured in high winds, which can easily deteriorate measurement accuracy. Whereas the conventional method incurred a deviation of 44.3 mm between the predicted and true values at altitudes of 15 m, the proposed method reduced this deviation to 19.4 mm. An application of the registration method demonstrated that the combined use of the two laser scanners enabled the creation of a high-density point cloud.","PeriodicalId":51661,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics","volume":"48 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138954624","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}
