  Abstract

This paper implemented the prototype of motion-control system which is essential to the development of animatronics. The motion-control system consists of motion-capture module, motion-capture storage module, and motion-control module. The motion-capture module adopted the MIDI panel to control the motions of animatronics, and the motion-capture storage module saves a database of motions as a SCV format for data processing. The actuator at the motion-control module can be controlled as AC motor, BLDC motor, and RC motor. This system has a total capacity of 4 AC motors per module, 5 BLDC motors per module, and 30 RC motors per module. Motion-capture storage module assigns 8 bits ID to each motion-control module which can be used as a node identifier at CAN communication. Therefore this system can control a maximum of 255 motion-control modules. And, this system defines the communication protocol of transmitting motor parameters for motion control, which provides more efficient debugging and faster data processing time than the conventional system. We confirm that this system provides the reduction of the development period for the new animatronics.
