Extensive developments have been in progress in recent years to make robots that can move and inspect in narrow space which is not accessible to human such as sewer pipe, and small opening among buildings. In this paper, we focus on narrow space between two walls and introduce a novel wall climbing robot that can move in vertical narrow space. This robot is composed of two driving modules and a pantograph...
In this paper, we propose the design of a robot with a snake-like body based on a test environment. We explore the abstraction of state-action spaces for reinforcement learning. Additionally, we discuss the versatility of the proposed mechanism by showing that different tasks can be completed by simply changing the reward of the reinforcement learning. Finally, we mention the importance of a body...
This paper presents an ultra-wideband (UWB) double-directional channel sounding technique using transformation between time domain (TD) and frequency domain (FD) signals. We proposed the time-of-arrival (TOA), angle-of- arrival (AOA) estimation algorithm and angle-of-departure (AOD) with some modifications of our previous work. There were four main advantages of the proposed estimation technique as...
The development of an oscillator controller for a quadruped robot with antagonistic pairs of pneumatic actuators is reported. Periodic motions of the legs switch between the swinging and supporting stages based on the phase of the oscillators. The oscillators receive touch sensor signals at the end of the legs as feedback when the leg touches the ground and compose a steady limit cycle of the total...
