Provided is a server for performing a low power communication and an operation method of the server that may generate a packet including collected data based on a maximum number of data items transmitted based on a maximum transmission unit (MTU) established between a client and the server and an allowable delay time of at least one service, and may transmit the generated packet to the client.

Server for performing low power communication and operation method thereof, and scheduling map generation method for performing low power communication

A wearable robot may include a gear part having an exoskeleton structure to be worn on legs of a user, a sensor part including a first electromyogram (EMG) sensor attached at a first location of at least one leg of the user, and a second EMG sensor attached at a second location, and a controller to detect a walking assist starting point to assist the user with walking, based on a first EMG signal detected by the first EMG sensor and a second EMG signal detected by the second EMG sensor.

Wearable robot and method for controlling the same

A walking assistance method may include: computing an amount of exercise of a user based on a biosignal of the user; adjusting a pattern of an assist parameter based on the amount of exercise; and/or generating a force corresponding to the amount of exercise, based on the adjusted pattern. A walking assistance apparatus may include: a pattern adjuster configured to compute an amount of exercise of a user based on a biosignal of the user; and/or a driver configured to generate a force corresponding to the amount of exercise based on a pattern of an assist parameter based on the amount of exercise.

Walking assistance methods and apparatuses performing the same

A data processing architecture includes a processor which may access a memory and fetch a command recorded in the memory, transmit the fetched command to a subject configured to perform an operation corresponding to the fetched command through a network, and receive a result of performing the operation from the subject and record the result of performing the operation in the memory.

Data processing architecture and data processing method

A method of controlling walking a biped robot to generate a walking pattern maximally similar to that of a human includes generating a walking pattern, calculating a walking pattern similarity corresponding to the walking pattern, and comparing the walking pattern similarity with a predetermined reference pattern similarity, and changing the walking pattern based on a result of the comparison. When the robot walks, a knee is maximally stretched and a horizontal movement of a waist is minimized such that the walking pattern of the robot is maximally similar to that of a human, thus enhancing an affinity for a human being and increasing energy efficiency.

Robot and method of controlling walking thereof

A robot and a method for planning a path of the robot. The method includes storing coordinates of a base cell in a queue structure, setting a plurality of cells adjacent to the base cell as scan cells, calculating a movement direction of the robot from the base cell to each of the scan cells, calculating movement cost of each of the scan cells according to the calculated movement direction, comparing the calculated movement cost and movement cost previously stored in each of the scan cells and determining whether or not coordinates of each of the scan cells are stored in the queue structure, and repeatedly performing a process of recording the movement direction and the movement cost in each of the scan cells and building a map of the movement space of the robot if the coordinates of each of the scan cells are stored in the queue structure.

An apparatus and method to control a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor, which accurately detect driving current. To this end, the BLDC motor control apparatus includes a BLDC motor, a driver to generate driving current to drive the BLDC motor, a current measurer to measure the driving current, a pulse width modulator to change a driving voltage to drive the BLDC motor; and a controller to control the BLDC motor. The controller detects the amount of the driving current in synchronization with pulse width modulation of the pulse width modulator and determines current with a minimum change due to a variation of counter electromotive force, among currents flowing through a plurality of coils, as the driving current, thereby accurately detecting the driving current.

Apparatus and method to control BLDC motor

Disclosed is a method of absorbing an impact generated when a foot of a walking robot lands on the ground to perform the walking of the walking robot. When the foot of the walking robot lands on the ground, an F/T sensor installed on the sole or the ankle of the foot measures external force and the posture of the sole of the foot is adjusted in a direction of complying with the external force, and thus an impact transmitted to the walking robot in landing is absorbed. Further, the posture adjusting speed of the sole of the foot is adjusted according to walking speeds (stopped, walking, running).

Walking robot and method of controlling the same

A humanoid robot that achieves stable walking based on servo control of a joint torque and a walking control method thereof. The humanoid robot calculates a joint position trajectory compensation value and a joint torque compensation value using a measurement value of a sensor, compensates for a joint position trajectory and a joint torque using the calculated compensation value, and drives a motor mounted to each joint according to the compensated joint torque.

Humanoid robot and walking control method thereof

Disclosed are a walking robot and a method of controlling the same, in which impedance control and torso tilt control are achieved complementarily such that impedance can be adjusted according to the tilt of a torso or the tilt of the torso can be adjusted according to the impedance. The method includes measuring a moment of a foot; measuring a tilt of a torso; adjusting the scale of the measured moment based on the tilt of the torso, and controlling the foot based on the scale-adjusted moment; and adjusting the scale of the measured tilt based on a ZMP variation amount of the foot, and controlling the tilt of the torso based on the scale-adjusted ZMP variation amount.
