Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and method for operating the same, and an automated guided vehicle (AGV) for controlling movements of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to various embodiments of the present invention may comprise: a wireless communication circuit; at least one sensor; a processor operatively connected to the wireless communication circuit and the at least one sensor; and a memory operatively connected to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to: receive a movement command for a movement with respect to the current location of the unmanned aerial vehicle, from an automated guided vehicle located within a predetermined distance from the unmanned aerial vehicle, by using the wireless communication circuit; acquire location-independent sensing information by using the at least one sensor, while the unmanned aerial vehicle moves according to the movement command; and transmit the location-independent sensing information to the automated guided vehicle so as to allow the automated guided vehicle to determine the location of the unmanned aerial vehicle by using the location-independent sensing information.

Unmanned aerial vehicle and method for operating same, and automated guided vehicle for controlling movement of unmanned aerial vehicle

An unmanned aerial vehicle may include: a sensor part configured to acquire inertia information or position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle; and a controller. The controller is configured to estimate the position of the unmanned aerial vehicle by applying the information acquired by the sensor part to an extended Kalman filter and control movement of the unmanned aerial vehicle, based on the estimated position of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The sensor part includes: an inertia sensor configured to acquire the inertia information of the unmanned aerial vehicle; a tag recognition sensor configured to recognize a tag attached to a rack and acquire absolute position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle; and an image sensor attached to the unmanned aerial vehicle so as to acquire an image of the movement environment of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

Multi-sensor-based unmanned aerial vehicle and method for controlling same

A frame configured of a plurality of links pivotally connected to one another is flexibly bent, and pins that connect the plurality of links that constitute the frame are inserted into and slide in a curve-shaped slot and a slot in a vertical direction so that, even though the frame is bent, the entire length of the frame is increased and ends of the frame can be moved along a straight line that is horizontal with respect to the ground.

Link assembly, frame, and walking assistance robot

A wearable robot includes a mechanism unit for assisting an wearer of the wearable robot in walking motion; a detection unit equipped on the wearer's body for detecting a moving direction of an arm of the wearer; and a controller for determining a walking intent of the wearer based on the moving direction of the arm of the wearer detected by the detection unit, and controlling the mechanism unit to produce auxiliary torque corresponding to the determined walking intent.
