Welding is a method to join parts together by stable connection. used in many different fields. The limitations of manual welding methods are gradually eliminated when using robots. selection robot has great influence on the efficiency process. Choosers (customers) often encounter problems choosing among products that available market. During this study, seven types robots were given make choic...

In this paper low cost mobile robot is designed and developed. A tree diagram of material selection is used to help designer to determine the requirements of mobile robot process design. 5 pieces of low price infrared sensors and 8 bits low cost microcontroller-based system are utilized to process sensors signal and driving actuators to guide mobile robot movement. Fuzzy-Kohonen Network (FKN) m...

trajectories generally used to describe the space and time required to perform a desired motion task for a mobile robot or manipulator system. in this paper, we considered a cubic polynomial trajectory for the problem of moving a mobile robot from its initial position to a goal position in over a continuous set of time. along the path, the robot requires to observe a certain acceleration profil...

This paper focuses on parameter identification of a target tracker robot possessing flexible joints using particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Since, belt and pulley mechanisms are known as flexible joints in robotic systems, their elastic behavior affecting a tracker robot is investigated in this work. First, dynamic equations governing the robot behavior are extracted taking into acco...

A common decision problem in multi-robot applications involves deciding on which robot, out of a group of N robots, should travel to a goal location, to carry out a task there. Trivially, this decision problem can be solved greedily, by selecting the robot with the shortest expected travel time. However, this ignores the inherent uncertainty in path traversal times; we may prefer a robot that i...

We describe the first instance of a novel approach for control programming of humanoid robots, based on evolution. To overcome some of the difficulties with evolution on real hardware, we use a physically realistic simulation of the robot. The essential idea is to evolve control programs from first principles on a simulated robot, transfer the programs to the real robot, and continue to evolve ...

The movement of a mobile robot in non-deterministic environment is accompanied by maneuvering due to the need avoid collision with fixed or moving obstacle. Under certain conditions, several obstacles, including ones, may appear near zone robot. In this case, trajectory-planning algorithms based on “static” approach position obstacles will not be effective; their application lead collisions. Fi...
