| Research Abstract |
Motion of short-roll and long-roll of Eskimo roll were pictured by CCD cameras in a pool to analyze the unsteady motion of human body and a kayak. We found out that the rolling speed of short-roll is about twice as fast as that of long-roll and that motion of long-roll is almost two-dimensional whereas motion of short-roll is three-dimensional.
Human dynamics of long-roll was analyzed theoretically by using a motion model of an underwater robot with a manipulator where a human body a paddle were replaced with three links and one link, respectively. Motion of the joints were solved by simultaneous use of inverse kinematics and inverse dynamics. We found out that the simulation result corresponds fairly well with the experimental result.
We made a Eskimo roll robot consisting of a manipulator with three joints and a kayak model. Motions of the joints were obtained to set the target motion of the robot from the motion model of a manipulator and a kayak model by inputting acceleration and angular acceleration of the end-effector. PD control was used. We found out that the robot could turn up from the capsized condition.
