An apparatus and method for building a map of probability distribution are provided. The apparatus for building the map of probability distribution includes: a sensor information collector configured to collect sensor information from a plurality of sensors; as object recognizer configured to recognize an object by integrating and inferring the sensor information, and to acquire object information; and a probability distribution creator configured to determine whether to apply an object property model including at least one of kinematic properties, shape properties, and probabilistic properties in correspondence to the object information, to acquire object properties corresponding to the object information, and to create a probability distribution based on foe object properties. Accordingly, it is possible to build a map with high reliability.

Apparatus and method for building map of probability distribution based on properties of object and system

An unmanned transport apparatus, includes: a call unit for providing destination information corresponding to a call location according to a call signal of a communication device; a navigation guide unit for recognizing a current location using an electronic map and searching an optimum route from the current location to a destination location of the destination information; and an image recognition unit for determining a travelling route and recognizing landmarks, stop lines, and intersections on the determined travelling route. Further, the unmanned transport apparatus includes an image capture unit for capturing input images to produce image; and a control unit for controlling a steering angle by determining a steering value from the current location to the destination location based on the travelling route and landmarks, and controlling velocity and brakes by determining velocity and brake values based on the stop lines and intersections.

Unmanned transport apparatus and operating method thereof

An apparatus for performing fault tolerance against a failure occurring during driving robot software components includes: a component executor for executing the robot software components, which are assigned with one thread from an operating system and have a same priority and cycle, by using the assigned thread; and an executor monitor for periodically monitoring the operation of the component executor and determining whether or not there is a failure in the robot software components executed by the component executor. The apparatus further includes: an executor manager for generating the component executor which is assigned with the robot software components having the same priority and cycle and, when the executor monitor determines that there is a failure in the execution of the robot software components, generating a new component executor.

Fault tolerance method and apparatus for robot software component

A robot server for controlling a robot, a system for providing content having the same, and a method thereof are provided. The robot server communicating with the robot includes a virtual robot object and a virtual robot object manager. The robot server executes commands that are generated in correspondence to the robot and received from the robot, and controls the robot. The virtual robot object manager generates the virtual robot object corresponding to the robot and activates the virtual robot object when connected to the robot.
