Various researches are ongoing. The following materials are for academic use only.

Drawing Robot (Robotic Expression of Acquired Penmanship)

The project REAP (Robotic Expression of Acquired Penmanship) is dedicated to exploring the use of robots and machine intelligence algorithms as a novel medium for artistic expression. In this regard, most art-producing devices and systems reported to-date are designed to perform free-form rendition of western style artworks. When the character to be recognized as image pattern and the information are given such as the brush stroke trajectory...

Mechancial Rider

Segway-based mechanical rider is an automatic mechanical rider based on Segway PT. This project is building an independent platform on the Segway rider. And it is using computer vision and GPS for positioning.

Talking Robot

This project is to study the exhibition of expressions in robot with facial features to facilitate human-robot communication. Besides humans’ speech, facial expressions also include part of the humans’ emotion. To let computer understand the humans’ emotion utterly, not only focus on the speech, but also we should have an analysis on facial expression. Facial expression analysis can be based on different facial features analysis....

Spherical Motor

This proposed motor provides 3-DOF and its the workspace of the end effector is a spherical surface. It has a similar structure with a 12-8 conventional rotary switched reluctance inrunner motor except the rotation axis of the rotor is not fixed. The rotor is controlled to rotate and shift its position within a plane. All 12 stator poles are independently controlled. This motor is compact and light-weighted with compensated efficiency and raised component cost.
