RESEARCH PROJECTS RELATED TO ROBOT THEATRE.



  • Introduction to Hahoe KAIST Robot Theatre in year 2005.

  • Introduction to robot theatres worldwide and ideas of our theatre from 2001.

  • TECHNOLOGIES TO BUILD INEXPENSIVE ROBOTS FOR THEATRES:
    1. This is a simple explanation of servos and their use. Futaba and Hitec servos are used in our projects.

    2. Inexpensive robots. In PPT format. Learn about various types of robots that we already built in the lab. You can reuse, extend them or modify. You can build your own similar robots.

    3. Lego Robots. In PPT format. Inexpensive but complete robots that we used for fast prototyping of robots in the past. Used in high schools and in various competitions.

    4. Pneumatic Robots. In PPT format. We built several such robots in the past but next we switched to standard electric servos.

    5. Robots from Robix kit, the fastest way to control movements. In PPT format. We have two Robix kits available for students to use.

    6. Our inexpensive robots. Ideas for practical realization. This will teach you inexpensive methods and items in our lab that can be used for talking head robots.

  • WALKING ROBOTS:
    1. Design of walking robots. This is an introductory material useful if your project is a walking robot.

      Explanation of soccer project.

    2. Legged Robotic Soccer Project at PSU. In the past we built a robot team of walking robots.

    3. Pattern Recognition Project for PSU Big Hexapod.

    4. Hexapods for robot soccer.

  • ARMS OF ROBOTS
      Arms of Industrial robots. Part I This material is useful in projects related to building various types of robot arms.

    1. Arms of Industrial robots. Part II This material is useful in projects related to building various types of robot arms.

  • EMOTIONAL TALKING HEADS
    1. Emotional Robots and Immitation. This will teach you about robots' emotions and how they immitate humans. These methods can be all used in our talking heads.

    2. BUG or "BIG UGLY GREETER" Robots Uland Wong and Marek Perkowski, ``A New Approach to Robot's Imitation of Behaviors by Decomposition of Multiple-Valued Relations.'' Proc. Boolean Problems, 2002. Freiberg, Germany.

    3. Introduction to Talking Head and theatre projects for year 2004. Find more on these topics in Martin's www page, below, and on the link to my Korean lectures from the bottom of my main www page.
