SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF UML DESIGN MODEL FOR MULTI-JOINTED ROBOT

PURPOSE: An automatic generating method of a multi-joint robot UML(Unified Modeling Language) design model is provided to prevent information loss during manual production and to save designing time by generating a design model based on information of a virtual prototype model. CONSTITUTION: Requirements for multi-joint robot development are defined. A virtual robot prototyping model is generated by analyzing the requirements. A class diagram is generated by converting a robot proto typing model of an XML(eXtensible Markup Language) form through a convertor implemented with an ATL(ATLAS Transformation Language). The class diagram is converted into a code for robot operation. The virtual robot prototyping model generates a virtual robot prototype model, operates the virtual robot prototype model in a virtual environment, and generates a data file of an XML form.
