Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Distributed Control System Using a Personal Computer and Micro Control Units for Humanoid RobotsMitsuhiro Yamano, Akihiro Ochiai, Yuichi Suzukawa et al.Problem statement: Humanoid robots have many motors and sensors and many control methods are used to carry out complicated tasks of the robots. Therefore, efficient control systems are required for the robots. Approach: This study presented a distributed control system using a Personal Computer (PC) and Micro Control Units (MCUs) for humanoid robots. Distributed control systems have the advantages that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,531 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach to Dynamic Signature Verification Using Sensor-Based Data gloveShohel Sayeed, Nidal S. Kamel, Rosli BesarData glove is a new dimension in the field of virtual reality environments, initially designed to satisfy the stringent requirements of modern motion capture and animation professionals. In this study we try to shift the implementation of data glove from motion animation towards signature verification problem, making use of the offered multiple degrees of freedom for each finger and for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,152 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Modeling Approach for Collision Avoidance in Robotic SurgeryReza Ramezanifard, Javad Dargahi, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheWe present a new system that can be used in combination with an array of ultrasonic piezoelectric sensors and has application in surgical navigation procedures. Using the proposed assembly, the maneuverability of the surgical tools can be enhanced and the incidence of potentially damaging contact with non-target tissue can be reduced. The emphasis of our work was based on controlling … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,798 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning Omni-Directional Mobile Robot with Mecanum WheelJefri Efendi Mohd Salih, Mohamed Rizon, Sazali Yaacob et al.This study presents the processes undertaken in the design and development of an intelligent omni-directional mobile robot using four custom-made mecanum wheels. The mecanum wheel developed consists of nine rollers made from delrin. All mecanum wheels are independently powered using four units of precisian gear DC motors and the wheel/motor assemblies were mounted directly to the robot chassis made using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 9,601 accessesView PDF Cite
