In this research, software and hardware system is developed in order to control the PUMA 760 robot via a supervisory computer. In order to develop such a system, the characteristics of the PUMA robot are first studied in detail and then the capacity to integrate the available system with a supervisory computer, and all possible methods for this integration areinvestigated. Among these methods, the appropriate ones are chosen and they are integrated to the software by means of constructing the required protocols. Now, with the aid of the coded software, it is possible to command the robot with the recent programming languages and hence to develop further practical application software for the robot. In order to demonstrate the functional capability of the control software which supervises the motion of the robot, a control algorithm is designed on the network structure constituted. An infrared transmitter-receiver system is designed and integrated on the PUMA robot as a sample model demonstrating the integrability capacity of the developed system to the external instruments. Using the information received from this sensor system, the supervisory computer performs the target tracking operation by controlling the robot via the network formed.

Control and motion planning for mobile robots via a secure wireless communication protocol
Kaya, Muhammed Çağrı; Eroğlu, Alperen; Temizer, Selim (null; 2013-05-21)
Mobile robot control is receiving considerably more attention in current robotics research. Especially unmanned vehicles are used in important missions such as bomb disposal, patrolling borders of a country by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), etc. This usage increases the importance of unmanned vehicles and they become a target of malevolent people. In this study, a controllable robot system is designed with a secure communication protocol. A Pioneer P3-DX robot is used as a ground vehicle. The robot operat...
DEVELOPMENT OF AN EXTENSIBLE HETEROGENEOUS SWARM ROBOT PLATFORM
Bilaloğlu, Cem; Turgut, Ali Emre; Şahin, Erol; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2022-1-13)
This thesis introduces Kobot -- an extensible heterogeneous swarm robot platform. Kobot platform uses a common hardware and software architecture based on off-the-shelf components, 3-D printing, and open-source software that evolves with state of the art. Robots built using this common architecture range from wheeled to flying robots and formed a heterogeneous swarm. The common architecture enabled developing and testing systems for the lightweight flying robots on resourceful ground robots. As a result, Ko...
Intelligent gait control of a multilegged robot used in rescue operations
Karalarlı, Emre; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref; Erkmen, İsmet; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003)
In this thesis work an intelligent controller based on a gait synthesizer for a hexapod robot used in rescue operations is developed. The gait synthesizer draws decisions from insect-inspired gait patterns to the changing needs of the terrain and that of rescue. It is composed of three modules responsible for selecting a new gait, evaluating the current gait, and modifying the recommended gait according to the internal reinforcements of past time steps. A Fuzzy Logic Controller is implemented in selecting t...
Real-time hardware-in-the-loop simulation of electrical machine systems using FPGAs
Üşenme, Serdar; Dilan, R.A.; Dölen, Melik; Koku, Ahmet Buğra (2009-11-18)
This study focuses on the development an integrated software and hardware platform that is capable of performing real-time simulation of dynamic systems, including electrical machinery, for the purpose of hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS). The system to be controlled is first defined using a block diagram editor. The defined model is then compiled and downloaded onto an FPGA (¿Field Programmable Gate Array¿) based hardware platform, which is to interface with the controller under test and carry out the...
External control of PUMA 700 series robot based on the communication protocols LUN and DDCMP
Gebizlioğlu, Önder Emin; Ersak, Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003)
This thesis analyzes the supervisory control of the PUMA 700 series robot through a remote computer. Supervisory communication carries the control through MARK II controller, common controller for the PUMA robots, to a standard PC, enabling the development of purpose specific control programming without the knowledge of the VAL (Variable Assembly Language), robot-programming language. Using the supervisory communication feature of PUMA, new control software has been developed in which both VAL commands and ...
