Design Of Service Taekwondo Robot For Simulation “Kwon” Movement

Abstract

"Kwon" means "hand", or "to strike with the hand". This study to design a taekwondo service (Spectre) robot for simulation in "Kwon" movement with a smart panel system specialized in attacking and defending hand movement. This service robot will act as a trainer assistant to teach Taekwondo sports movements on “Kwon”. Spectre robot constructed using RERO components. At early stages, users or trainers able to learn and teach simple moves with this robot. The wireless function is added to the Spectre Taekwondo robot to operate it with a certain distance. An android app is created with MIT app inventor for Bluetooth connection and can be used with the aid of smartphones. This study will help to identify the technology of service robot applications.

Key words:   Taekwondo, Kwon, RERO
