Research Abstract |
The tele-operation of construction machinery has been studied with a hope not only of the improved efficiency of common constructing and civil operations, but also of the developments of very deep underground and even the life-saving and recovering missions at a disastered area or in hazardor enviroments. However, only a few experimental demonstrations have been done and further practical applications have not yet been attained. This is mainlly due to the fact that the humann interface technology has not sufficiently matured such that an oprator can get good sensations of tele-existence. In this research, we worked on the development of the following three key elements of the human interface technology : (1) a 3D tele-visualization system that generates the movement parallax, (2) an AC Motor driven parallel mechanism that displays dynamic acceleration and (3) a parallel computation algorithm for the dynamic control of the parallel mechanism. A man can improve his spatial recognition by seeing the visual difference due to his head movement. The first subject is on the integration of the movement parallax into a three dimentional visualization system. In the scond subject, we developed a 6D0F parallel mechanism using six AC motors (1.3 kw each, Maximum inertia load 70 kg, Maximum acceleratio 2G,Work space 0.5*0.5*0.3 m^3). We adopted the kinematic design that Prof. H.Funahashi's group (Tokyo Institute of Technology) had previously optimized. In the third subject, we developed a parallel Computational algorithm for the real-time dynamic control of the parallel mechanism.
