Problems solved by technology

[0013] On the contrary, for the aforementioned "dialogue-driven" or "autonomous-driven" types of robots, allowing the robot to partially interpret user input or external events within a certain range will make it difficult to locate the cause of anomalies or failures
In addition, since the legged mobile robot can walk in an arbitrary behavior space instead of following a fixed line, the user will not be able to monitor the robot at all times
So when the robot is out of range of what the user can monitor, if something breaks down or the robot gets into trouble or an accident, the user will find it very difficult to figure out what is going on with the robot

[0035] Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0036] Referring to the accompanying drawings, a robot using a control device according to the present invention and a control method thereof will be described in detail below.

[0037]1 and 2 show the legged mobile robot 100 in an upright state when the robot of the present invention is viewed from the front and rear, respectively. The legged mobile robot 100 is of the so-called "human-like" type and can be set up with a behavioral plan based on voice or video input through a dialogue with the user, or autonomously without resources related to user input, that is, independently of Users, these will be described in turn later. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the legged mobile robot 100 includes two lower limbs 101R, 101L responsible for moving the legs, a trunk 102 , right and left upper limbs 103R, 103L, and a head 104 .

[0038] The left and right lower limbs 101R, 101L are composed of thighs 105R, 105L, kn...

Abstract

A control device for a robot that is composed of multiple joint actuators and operates according to a behavior plan, the control device includes: a behavior planning unit, used to set the behavior plan of the robot; an operation control unit, used to drive each a joint actuator for implementing an operation mode corresponding to the behavior plan determined by the behavior planning unit; a detection unit for detecting an operation state implemented by the operation control unit; and a recording unit for recording a log including the behavior of the behavior planning unit Operational implementation status detected by the planning and detection unit. Thus, the user who issued the command to the robot can be verified, and the content of the command provided by the user, the behavior taken by the robot in response to the command, and the time when the behavior was implemented are combined and recorded.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a robot that operates according to a behavior plan, and particularly to a behavior plan setting type robot that autonomously sets a behavior plan according to voice or image input through interaction with a user, or without user input. More specifically, it relates to a behavior plan setting type robot that can check the cause of an abnormality, failure, or accident if it occurs during "dialogue-driven" or "autonomous-driven". Background technique [0002] Mechanical devices that use electrical or magnetic operations to perform human-imitated movements are called "robots". The etymology of the term robot is said to be derived from the Slavic word "ROBOTA" (driven motive). Robots have been widely used since the late 1960s. Most of the robots in use are industrial robots, such as manipulators or transport robots, whose goal is to automate or perform unmanned operations in factory operations. ...
