    Abstract: A robotic system includes a humanoid robot with multiple compliant joints, each moveable using one or more of the actuators, and having sensors for measuring control and feedback data. A distributed controller controls the joints and other integrated system components over multiple high-speed communication networks. Diagnostic, prognostic, and health management (DPHM) modules are embedded within the robot at the various control levels. Each DPHM module measures, controls, and records DPHM data for the respective control level/connected device in a location that is accessible over the networks or via an external device. A method of controlling the robot includes embedding a plurality of the DPHM modules within multiple control levels of the distributed controller, using the DPHM modules to measure DPHM data within each of the control levels, and recording the DPHM data in a location that is accessible over at least one of the high-speed communication networks.

    Abstract: A publish-subscribe architecture based blackboard system for selecting and exchanging selected information among a plurality of processing modules using filters for implementing conditions described in a procedural language to reduce the amount of information transmitted between the processing modules. More than one filter may be dynamically installed in a message hub to select and collect the published information to be sent to a certain subscribing module. By using the procedural language to describe the filters, the message hub can more intelligently select the information to be sent to the subscribing module. This reduces the amount of information transmitted via communication channels. Further, the subscribing module may be relieved from the task of filtering the information received from the message hub, allowing the subscribing module to devote more resources to other operations.

    Abstract: A walking robot and a control method thereof. The walking robot includes a main communication path, a subsidiary communication path, at least one master generating a communication protocol and transmitting the communication protocol through the main and subsidiary communication paths, and a plurality of slaves communicably connected to the at least one master through the main and subsidiary communication paths, increasing a value of an access counter of the communication protocol received through the main communication path, decreasing a value of the access counter of the communication protocol received through the subsidiary communication path, and forming loop-back paths connecting the main communication path and the subsidiary communication path when a communication error has occurred, wherein the at least one master judges whether or not the communication error has occurred from the values of the access counter of the communication protocol having passed through the plurality of slaves.
