    摘要: Disclosed herein are a feature point used to localize an image-based robot and build a map of the robot and a method of extracting and matching an image patch of a three-dimensional (3D) image, which is used as the feature point. It is possible to extract the image patch converted into the reference image using the position information of the robot and the 3D position information of the feature point. Also, it is possible to obtain the 3D surface information with the brightness values of the image patches to obtain the match value with the minimum error by a 3D surface matching method of matching the 3D surface information of the image patches converted into the reference image through the ICP algorithm.

    摘要: Disclosed are a biped walking robot, which carries out walking with a high energy efficiency through adjustment of the stiffnesses of joints of legs and improves walking stability through control of the pose of a torso, and a method of controlling the walking robot. The method includes generating a walking pattern of plural legs connected to a torso of the walking robot; adjusting stiffness of each of the plural legs interlocking with walking phases of the plural legs driven according to the walking pattern; and measuring a tilt of the torso, and compensating for the tilt of the torso such that the torso is parallel with the gravity direction.

    摘要: Disclosed are a robot, which builds a map using a surface data of a three-dimensional image, from which a dynamic obstacle is removed, and a method of building a map for the robot. The method includes sequentially acquiring first and second surface data of a route on which the robot moves; matching the first and second surface data with each other to calculate a difference between the first and second surface data; detecting a dynamic obstacle from the first and second surface data according to the difference between the first and second surface data; generating a third surface data by removing the dynamic obstacle from at least one of the first and second surface data; and matching the third surface data and any one of the first and second surface data with each other to build the map.

    摘要: Disclosed are a robot arm having high back-drivability to interact with a human being, which is safely stopped, and a method of controlling the robot arm. When the operation of the robot arm having high back-drivability to interact with a human being is converted into a safety mode due to the occurrence of an emergency, in which the operation of the robot arm is stopped, only a torque having a degree to compensate for gravity applied to the robot arm, i.e., only a torque to maintain the kinematical position of the current state of the robot arm without falling of the robot arm due to gravity, is outputted to control the robot arm as if the robot arm is in a weightless state, thus being capable of safely stopping the robot arm. Thereby, a user can easily move the robot arm and thus safely escape from the robot arm, and it is possible to prevent the falling of the robot arm due to gravity and thus to protect devices of the robot arm and peripheral environment around the robot arm.
