Abstract A fundamental problem of mechanical motion control is that of indexing a mass reliably from one stationary position to another in a given time with as little power as possible. A quadratic time increment function is proposed and demonstrated for stepping motor control. With this function, a given motor can index a mass through a variety of index lengths. The indexing system includes a microprocessor to adjust the motor pulse timing to index the inertial load through a range of motions — each with the same maximum torque. The functions and the sizing of the motor are described. The interaction between the microprocessor calculation speed and the indexing capability is given for achievable real time control. Experimental results for a specific system are presented.

The article introduces the design scheme of a motion control card on PXI bus. A detailed description of PCI interface module, FPGA module, DSP module, serial transceiver module and analog acquisition module is also given in this paper. Tests of data transfer rate between host and motion control card are adopted, the results suggest that the PXI local bus can get a high-rate communication. The motion control card is applied to control the two-dimensional turntable of an optoelectronic imaging and tracking system. The experiments indicate that the motion control card based on PXI can meet the requirements of real-time control. The performance of control is also acceptable.

In this paper, a new embedded numerical control (ENC) system for carton samplemaker based on Windows CE is presented. The hardware design of ENC system based on ARM9 processor S3C2440A and motion control chip MCX314As is discussed principally. Besides, the device driver of MCX314As is developed by using stream interface driver model under Windows CE operating system. Furthermore, the software structure of the ENC system is introduced, and the way how to utilize multi-thread technology to realize the real-time control of the carton samplemaker is also discussed in detail. The system is proved to be good at dealing with multiple tasks processing, real-time and reliability of motion control.

Motion control education in engineering requires hands-on experiments to catch the concept of feedback control, but experimental apparatus for motion control experiments is expensive, complex in mechanism and is hard to use it in general. In this paper, we develop an easy-to-use and economic experimental apparatus for motion control education using an open-source free operation system LINUX and a free real-time kernel RTAI. The developed apparatus is reliable in mechanical structure, and fast enough to realize 100 microsecond sampling time for real-time control purpose, and so it can test conventional PID control logics, various input shaping control logics and advanced motion control logics with cheap prices. The validity of the developed motion control apparatus is demonstrated by testing P, PD control logics and ZV input shapers experimentally.

<p>In recent years, wireless communication technology has developed rapidly and the speed of wireless communication data transmission is faster and faster, as well as remote control delay has greatly reduced, which is almost negligible, so the remote control is gradually being widely used in various fields. This paper achieves the  motion control of picking manipulator and obstacle avoidance system with the advantages of IOT remote control technology and PLC real-time control system. Experiments show that the designed picking manipulator motion control and obstacle avoidance system not only have strong obstacle avoidance ability but also have smooth path optimization with high reliability and stability.</p>

The servo system consisting of PC computer, multi-axis motion control card, servo driver, servo motor and load was constructed. The paper studied the interpolation principle and edited the procedure of linear interpolation for two axis servo motors. After the communication between PC computer and servo driver based on the motion control card, the paper edited the control interface program calling the interpolation procedure, which could realize the simulation control and real time control to servo motors. The compare results show the control accuracy of the experiment is higher.

Modern CNC system adopts the NURBS interpolation for the purpose of achieving high-speed and high accuracy performance. However, in conventional control architectures, the computation of the basis functions of a NURBS curve is very time consuming due to serial computing constraints. In this paper, a novel multiprocessor-based motion controller on chip utilizing its high-speed parallel computing power is proposed to realize the NURBS interpolation. The motion control algorithm and I/O control are also embedded in the chip to implement real-time control and NURBS interpolation simultaneously. The experimental tests using an X-Y table verify the outstanding computation performance of the multiprocessor-based motion controller on chip. The result indicates that shorter sampling time (0.1 ms) can be achieved for NURBS interpolation and high-accuracy motion control.

Abstract:The monitoring and treatment of patients in a care unit is a complex task in which even the most experienced clinicians can make errors. A hemato-oncology department in which patients undergo chemotherapy asked for a computerized system able to provide intelligent and continuous support in this task. One issue in building such a system is the definition of a control architecture able to manage, in real time, a treatment plan containing prescriptions and protocols in which temporal constraints are expressed in various ways, that is, which supervises the treatment, including controlling the timely execution of prescriptions and suggesting modifications to the plan according to the patient’s evolving condition. The system to solve these issues, called SEPIA, has to manage the dynamic, processes involved in patient care. Its role is to generate, in real time, commands for the patient’s care (execution of tests, administration of drugs) from a plan, and to monitor the patient’s state so that it may propose actions updating the plan. The necessity of an explicit time representation is shown. We propose using a linear time structure towards the past, with precise and absolute dates, open towards the future, and with imprecise and relative dates. Temporal relative scales are introduced to facilitate knowledge representation and access.
