| Research Abstract |
We have researched on the themes, which are written below.
(1) To make clear of problems and to define the functions of sensor, processor and network, which are necessary for Distributed Intelligent Networked Device (DIND)
(2) To make prototype of DIND, and to verify its reasonability
(3) To make clear of the problems when human interface and robots are connected to network
(4) Communication protocol for robots (connection to network)
We have defined necessary elements of standardized protocol, which enables information for tele-operation to be treated easily. Based on this, we developed human interface of which name is DIND for binding human in space with network. Until now, we have performed basic research about cooperation between robot and space with fusing network, processing and CCD camera as a sensor. Moreover, we have studied on human activity recognition as a function of DIND. By combining these technologies, it becomes possible that robots are utilized in general environment.
We have evaluated influence of time delay when human operator performs tele-operation. For this evaluation mobile robot and micro tele-operation system was used for the tele-operation and time delay emulator was developed. With quantitively evaluated results we proposed human interface and network protocols.
