Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Robotics)To reduce errors in the remote control of robots during decommissioning, we developed a Rail DRAGON, which enables continuous observation of the work environment. The Rail DRAGON is constructed by assembling and pushing a long rail structure inside the primary containment vessel (PCV), and then repeatedly deploying several monitoring robots on the rails to enable constant observation in a high-radiation environment. In particular, we have developed the following components of Rail DRAGON: bendable rail modules, straight rail modules, a basement unit, and monitoring robots. Concretely, this research proposes and demonstrates a method to realize an ultralong articulated structure with high portability and workability. In addition, it proposes and verifies the feasibility of a method for deploying observation equipment that can be easily deployed and replaced, while considering disposal.

The manta method is a survey method that divers investigate the degree of coral and whitening state while being towed to a boat. The manta method makes great physical burden. Therefore, the authors think that this task can substitute an underwater robot. This underwater robot is desirable to be able to keep altitude above the seabed. Hence, the authors have been developing the altitude (its distance above the sea floor) keeping system for an underwater robot. Visual recognition of distant underwater objects is possible in the water with high transparency, for example, in the coastal sea area of Okinawa prefecture, Japan. So, the authors have been adopting the distance measuring method using the two laser beams and a monocular camera with image processing. It realize to keep altitude of an underwater robot by using such devices. The evaluation experiments of the altitude keeping system are carried out in the pool.

Distribution map of the degree of coral has been created by Manta method to use coral conservation activities. The manta method is a survey method that divers investigate the degree of coral and whitening state while being towed to a boat. But the manta method makes great physical burden also underwater robot can substitute, and desirable underwater robot that can maintain an altitude between underwater robot and seabed. Therefore, we have developed the altitude maintenance system for underwater robot for the purpose of investigate by Manta method is described in this paper. The distance measuring method using the laser beams and a monocular camera with image processing is adopted reason that waters inhabiting coral is high transparency. The evaluation experiments in the pool with the system and underwater robots were confirmed to have sufficient accuracy for the assumed survey mission.

Research of monitoring of corals plays an important role in observing the natural environment on a global scale. Identifying and detecting corals amongst other objects, including marine organisms, from an image taken undersea is a difficult task. Moreover, there are many types of corals and they cannot be easily categorized automatically. Currently, texture analysis is being pursued that solves the problem of detecting and recognizing corals from pictures taken undersea; Haralick 14 conditional equations are used to calculate the texture characteristics information based on the gray levelco-occurrence matrix of 256 gradations and also to perform liner discrimination analysis on the characteristics information. In this paper, we propose one algorithm of texture analysis for discrimination of undersea objects, in order to detect the corals.

We developed a wireless sensor network system, Underwater Monitoring Sensor Network (UMSN), to support the coral reef observation activities for maintaining the coral reef environment. In this paper, we examined the communication conditions of wireless communication function which is equipped on a sensor node of UMSN for verifying the performance of the communication function on the practical experiment area.
