Implementation of Internet-based personal robot with Internet control architecture

摘要

Describes the implementation of an Internet-based personal robot with direct Internet control architecture which is insensitive to the inherent Internet time delay. The personal robot can be controlled by using a simulator provided at a local site. However, a large Internet time delay may make some control inputs distorted. Moreover, since it is affected by the number of the Internet nodes and loads, this delay is variable and unpredictable. The proposed control architecture guarantees that the personal robot can reduce the path error and the time difference between a virtual robot at the local site and a real robot at the remote site. Simulations and experimental results in the real Internet environment demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the Internet-based personal robot with the proposed Internet control architecture.
