Abstract: A surgical robot system and a control method thereof include a slave device and a master device to control motion of the slave device. The surgical robot system further includes a monitoring device that inspects a signal transmitted within the system in real time to stop motion of the slave device if an abnormal signal is detected.

Abstract: A medical robot system and a method for controlling the same. The medical robot system includes a trocar, inserted into an incision of a patient, to guide a surgical apparatus and transmit at least one of position information of the surgical apparatus and pressure information of the surgical apparatus, and a console to display a screen including at least one of the position information and the pressure information.

Abstract: A method for providing a UI for medical imaging of an object includes: generating UIs respectively corresponding to processes for imaging the object; determining a display order of the UIs; receiving a UI completion input of the medical professional regarding the first UI; and displaying the second UI in response to the receiving the UI completion input. The UIs corresponding to the processes for imaging the object may be automatically provided to the medical professional, based on the order.

Abstract: A localization method of a moving robot is disclosed in which the moving robot includes: capturing a first omni-directional image by the moving robot; confirming at least one node at which a second omni-directional image having a high correlation with the first omni-directional image is captured; and determining that the moving robot is located at the first node when the moving robot reaches a first node, at which a second omni-directional image having a highest correlation with the first omni-directional image is captured, from among the at least one node.

Abstract: A method to determine the location of a robot using an omni-directional image, the method including acquiring an omni-directional image from a robot, extracting a predetermined current line from the acquired omni-directional image, calculating a correlation coefficient between the extracted current line of the robot and each landmark line of pre-stored nodes using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), and performing a stochastic approach method of a particle filtering process on a basis of the calculated correlation coefficient to recognize a location of the robot.

Abstract: An intelligent network system including a client unit and a server unit providing a service to the client unit, and a method and computer-readable medium controlling the same are disclosed. If the server unit copies a process that performs a service requested by the client unit into the client unit, and the server unit cannot provide the service any longer, the process is copied to another available server unit so that the service can be continuously provided. Also, if there is no available server unit, the client unit receives the service using the copy process pre-stored in the client unit itself. Therefore, although the network or the peripheral device is in the worst state, the client unit can stably receive the service.

Abstract: A simultaneous localization and map building (SLAM) method and medium for a moving robot is disclosed. The SLAM method includes extracting a horizontal line from an omni-directional image photographed at every position where the mobile robot reaches during a movement of the mobile robot, correcting the extracted horizontal line, to create a horizontal line image, and simultaneously executing a localization of the mobile robot and building a map for the mobile robot, using the created horizontal line image and a previously-created horizontal line image.

Abstract: An application building system includes a computer having a component container to download components from a server and to store the components, and the computer having a client to download the components from the component container, to load the downloaded components into a program, and to build the program. The components having various functions may be reused when building an application and are prepared in advance and stored in the server. Program development capability of the application may be maximized by dynamically using the component container, and development time may be shortened.

Abstract: A moving robot and moving object detecting method and medium thereof is disclosed. The moving object detecting method includes transforming an omni-directional image captured in the moving robot to a panoramic image, comparing the panoramic image with a previous panoramic image and estimating a movement region of the moving object based on the comparison, and recognizing that a movement of the moving object exist in the estimated movement region when the area of the estimated movement region exceeds the reference area.
