초록

본 연구에서는 블루투스 비콘 기술의 광업 및 건설 분야 활용을 위해 기술의 특징과 다양한 활용사례를 조사하고, 분석하였다. 문헌 조사를 통해 블루투스 기술의 개념과 버전별 특징을 정리하였고, 블루투스 비콘 기반 서비스의 대표적인 유형과 타 분야에서의 실제 활용사례를 분석하였다. 광업 분야에서는 구버전인 블루투스 클래식 기술을 활용한 기존의 연구사례는 있으나 블루투스 비콘 기술을 활용한 사례는 발견할 수 없었다. 건설 분야에서는 최근에 블루투스 비콘 기술을 활용하여 현장의 원자재 운반 작업을 개선한 사례를 발견할 수 있었다. 블루투스 비콘 기술은 전력 소비량이 작고 스마트폰과 연동이 용이한 장점이 있으므로 기술 개발을 통해 광업 및 건설 분야에 도입할 경우 현장의 생산성과 안전성 개선을 위해 유용하게 활용할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

This study analyzed the features and various applications of Bluetooth beacon technology for utilization in the mining and construction industries. Through a literature survey, the concept and version-specific features of Bluetooth were reviewed, and representative types of the Bluetooth beacon-based service and its real-world applications in other fields were analyzed. Although a few previous studies that used the Bluetooth Classic (the old version of Bluetooth technology) in the mining industry have been reported, no mine site could be found where the Bluetooth beacon technology was utilized. In the construction industry, this study could find a site where the Bluetooth beacon technology was used to improve the haulage works of construction raw materials. Since the Bluetooth beacon technology has low power consumption and is easy to integrate with smartphones, it will be effectively utilized to improve the productivity and safety in the mining and construction industries.
