Problems solved by technology

[0007] Conventional toy machines provide a fixed interaction with the user's actions and cannot be modified according to the user's preferences
As a result, users gradually become bored with toys that simply repeat the same operations

Embodiment Construction

[0050] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0051] Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a hardware configuration of a robot according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the hardware of the robot includes a control subsystem 10 and a drive subsystem 50 .

[0052] The control subsystem 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 11 , a main memory device 12 , a fixed memory device 13 and a replaceable memory device 14 .

[0053] Under the control of the system control software, the CPU 11 as the main controller executes software programs such as application programs that have nothing to do with hardware configuration, and software programs that are related to hardware configuration such as middleware, thereby generally controlling the operation of the entire robot .

[0054] The CPU 11 is connected to various memory devices, other circuit components, and peripheral...

Abstract

An articulated robot is controlled by dynamically modifying a combination of a hardware dependent middleware layer and a hardware independent application layer. A memory device for storing a plurality of sets of robot hardware dependent software programs and a memory device for storing a plurality of sets of robot hardware independent software programs are prepared. During execution of software programs, a software program compatible with a robot hardware configuration is introduced from the former memory device, and this software program is dynamically combined with the set of hardware independent software programs. The robot is thus appropriately controlled, meeting the needs of users.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a robot control system and to a method of introducing a robot control software program for controlling a robot with movable joints, such as a legged walking robot, using the software program. More specifically, the present invention relates to a robot control system and a method of introducing a robot control software program, the system uses the software program to control the installation, removal, or exchange of operating units such as the head or limbs, which can substantially Jointed robot with modified hardware configuration. More specifically, the present invention relates to a robot control system and a method of introducing a robot software program. Jointed robot. The present invention also relates to a robot control system and a method of introducing robot control software by dynamically modifying a combination of hardware-dependent software layers such as middleware and hardware-independent software layers su...
