This technology is a control and kinematic operation system for a towing-type robot, where an autonomous transport robot (100) loaded with flooring materials is towed by an autonomous working robot (200), which then receives the materials sequentially from the transport robot to automatically install them onto the floor surface.
Existing construction robots are limited to specific tasks, resulting in low versatility. Furthermore, because a single robot is responsible for both transport and installation, work efficiency is reduced, and the lack of specialized sensor modules for floor construction limits their practical application in the field.
This technology involves building a robot system where the transport robot’s material supply mechanism (lift drive and supply unit) pushes the bottom-most material to the working robot’s gripper module (arm). The two robots are connected by a coupling link and move together, performing sensor-fusion-based driving control and real-time installation inspection. Applicable to logistics, service robots, and autonomous platforms, this system improves construction safety by isolating workers from high-risk tasks, enhances construction productivity, and reduces the incidence of musculoskeletal disorders.
This invention was developed with support from the Ministry of Science and ICT for the development of intelligent painting and masking collaborative robots.
