Abstract: To solve the problems of the control system of the working assistant robot for elderly such as lower efficiency and weak complicity. A kind of open architecture, modularity, extensible embedded robot control system is developed. The main contents include: Studied on a rich hardware interface and drivers, function easy-to-modular extended robot development platform. The paper presented the platform features, design concepts and system solutions of the robot control system and gave details of building approaches of the platform. On this basis, the functional modules of the robot were designed and implemented with the modular design approach. Finally a specified working assistant robot was created by loading the completed modules into the control system platform and some experiments were carried out on the robot system. Experiments results show that the system platform can be a convenient and effective way to develop multi-functional working assistant robot for elderly.

Abstract: The robot vision technology designed to help the elderly and the disabled people are studied on a mobile robot in the thesis, and its robot vision system based on ARM and DSP is mainly designed, respectively. After hardware construction and software design, the experiments are taken to verify the feasibility of the application of the robot vision technology on the age and disabled helping robot.

Abstract: As the research object, the mobile robot chassis is designed. Firstly, the mobile robot chassis intensity design is processed in accordance with the chassis external load. According to the design results, the structure model is constructed in ANSYS, the strength and stiffness is checked and its structural dynamics characteristic is computed. Then, based on the numerical value analysis, the non-sensitive variable of the bodywork is analyzed and the optimization model of the body structure is established. The result of the Numerical Optimization proved that, the inherent structure frequency characteristics did not change significantly in the case of the body weight components reduced. The mobile robot platform is set up in the laboratory, the experimental results showed that the robot chassis design is reasonable, in line with the requirements of mobile robots.
