The original structure of the PUMA robot is retained. The hardware of the new controller includes such in-house designed parts as pulse width modulation (PWM) amplifiers, digital and analog controllers, I/O cards, signal conditioner cards, and 16-bit A/D and D/A boards. An Intel Pentium IV industrial computer is used as the central controller. The control software is implemented using VC++ programming language. The trajectory tracking performance of all six joints is tested at varying velocities. Experimental results show that it is feasible to implement the suggested open architecture platform for PUMA 500 series robots through the software routines running on a PC. By assembling controller from off-the-shell hardware and software components, the benefits of reduced and improved robustness have been realized.展开更多

This paper considers uncertainty model validation for unstable systems. Under a similar assumption to study for stable systam, a necessary and suffident condition is obtained for unstable uncertainty models not to be invalidated, which generalizes the results of previous study and show that the uncertainty model validation for unstable systems is again a boundary interpolation problem.展开更多

This paper focuses on the interactive design of the somatosensory games, and combines the Kinect interactive devices with the popular Unity 3D game engines, and analyzes and designs the realization principles of the somatosensory games, the somatosensory games and the digital somatosensory interactive display. Through the design and production of the original game "Dream", the author discusses the design methods of the game interactive experience while abandoning the traditional human-comouter interactive mode.展开更多
