Recently, many attempts have been made to reduce the time required for payment in various shopping environments. In addition, for the Fourth Industrial Revolution era, artificial intelligence is advancing, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices are becoming more compact and cheaper. So, by integrating these two technologies, access to building an unmanned environment to save people time has become easier. In this paper, we propose a smart shopping cart system based on low-cost IoT equipment and deep-learning object-detection technology. The proposed smart cart system consists of a camera for real-time product detection, an ultrasonic sensor that acts as a trigger, a weight sensor to determine whether a product is put into or taken out of the shopping cart, an application for smartphones that provides a user interface for a virtual shopping cart, and a deep learning server where learned product data are stored. Communication between each module is through Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, a Hypertext Transmission Protocol network, a You Only Look Once darknet library, and an object detection system used by the server to recognize products. The user can check a list of items put into the smart cart via the smartphone app, and can automatically pay for them. The smart cart system proposed in this paper can be applied to unmanned stores with high cost-effectiveness.

최근 생활에 편리하며 휴대하기 좋은 전자기기들이 개발되고 있다. 휴대폰이나 MP3와 같은 전자기기들은 거의 필수품이라고 할 정도로 우리의 일상생활에 근접하여 있다. 그 종 대표적으로 휴대폰의 종류로 스마트폰과 같은 터치스크린을 이용한 사례는 점차 상승하고 있으며 시간이 지날수록 그 수요는 더욱 많아지고 있다. 때문에 몰입감 제공을 위하여 햅틱장치의 채용이 일반화 되고 있다. 햅틱장치란 가상환경이나 원거리에 있는 환경과 사용자가 상호 작용할 때 사용자에게 촉감이나 힘의 정보를 전달하여 주는 장치로 진동 및 회동 저항에 의해 사용자로 하여금 촉감들 느낄 수 있도록 하는 장치를 뜻한다. 즉, 현실감을 전달을 중점으로 하는 햅틱장치는 빠른 응답 속도와, 진동의 주파수와 크기는 독립적으로 제어가 가능해야 하며 기계적 수용기들을 직접적으로 자극할 수 있어야 한다. 하지만 모바일 햅틱장치의 경우 크기 및 소비전력의 문제로 모든 스펙을 만족하기에는 어려워 좀 더 한정적인 느낌을 제공할 수 없다. 현재까지 모바일 장치에서 햅틱 피드백을 위하여 진동모터나, 솔레노이드, 압전 액츄에이터 등이 많이 사용되어 지고 있다. 그 중 압전 액츄에이터는 입력에너지를 기계적 출력에너지로 변환되는 효과를 이용 한 것으로 압력 센서, 초음파 센서 등 많은 분야에서 응용되고 있으며 변위 범위는 작지만, 크기가 매우 작고 변위 정밀도가 높으며 발생력과 응답속도가 빠르다는 장점이 존재한다. 이를 이용한 햅틱 압전 엑츄에이터의 제작에 사용되는 압전 세라믹스는 높은 전기적 특성을 가질수록 더 졸은 효율을 가지며 이로 인하여 보다 좋은 전기적 특성을 가지는 압전 세라믹스를 필요로 한다. 현재 많이 사용되는 PZT계 세라믹스는 우수한 전기적 특성으로 많이 사용되고 있지만 Pb의 유독성으로 인한 환경문제로 Pb가 포함된 제품을 제한하고 있어 현재 Lead-free의 연구가 이루어지고 있다. Lead-free중 Ba$(Ti_{0.8}Zr_{0.2})O_3$(BZT)는 PZT계 세라믹스를 대체할 차세대 압전 재료로 주목받고 있다. 일반적으로 Lead-free의 압전계수($d_{33}$=100~300pC/N)는 비교적 낮은 값을 보이지만 BZT의 압전계수(BZT $d_{33}$~620pC/N)는 PZT계 세라믹스의 압전계수($d_{33}$=500~600pC/N)와 비교하여 부족하지 않은 압전계수를 보여주며 PZT를 대체할 재료로 주목받고 있다. 본 실험은 햅틱 압전 엑츄에이터용 무연 압전세라믹스의 제작을 위하여 Ba$(Ti_{0.8}Zr_{0.2})O_3-(Ba_{0.7}Ca_{0.3})-TiO_3$(BZT -BCT)의 조성으로 유전 및 압전 특성을 조사하였다.

The early Web technology was to show text information through a browser. However, as web technology advances, it is possible to show large amounts of multimedia data through browsers. Web technologies are being applied in a variety of fields such as sensor network, hardware control, and data collection and analysis for big data and AI services. As a result, the standard has been prepared for the Internet of Things, which typically controls a sensor via HTTP communication and provides information to users, by installing a web browser on the interface of the Internet of Things. In addition, the recent development of web-assembly enabled 3D objects, virtual/enhancing real-world content that could not be run in web browsers through a native language of C-class. Factors that evaluate the performance of existing Web applications include performance, network resources, and security. However, since there are many areas in which web applications are applied, it is time to revisit and review these factors. In this thesis, we will conduct an analysis of the factors that assess the performance of a web application. We intend to establish an indicator of the development of web-based applications by reviewing the analysis of each element, its main points, and its needs to be supplemented.

Modeling 3D buildings is an essential process to revive the real world into a computer. There are two ways to create a 3D building model. The first method is to use the building layer of 1:1000 digital maps based on high density point data gained from airborne laser surveying. The second method is to use LiDAR point data with digital images achieved with LiDAR. In this research we tested one sheet area of 1:1000 digital map with both methods to process a 3D building model. We have developed a process, analyzed quantitatively and evaluated the efficiency, accuracy, and reality. The resulted differed depending on the buildings shape. The first method was effective on simple buildings, and the second method was effective on complicated buildings. Also, we evaluated the accuracy of the produced model. Comparing the 3D building based on LiDAR data and digital image with digital maps, the horizontal accuracy was within ${\pm}50cm$. From the above we derived a conclusion that 3D building modeling is more effective when it is based on LiDAR data and digital maps. Using produced 3D building modeling data, we will be utilized as digital contents in various fields like 3D GIS, U-City, telematics, navigation, virtual reality and games etc.

Current indoor intrusion detection and location tracking methods have the weakness in seamless operations in tracking the objective because the object must possess a communicating device and the limitation of the single cell size (approximate $100cm{\times}100cm$) exits. Also, the utilization of CCTV technologies show the shortcomings in tracking when the object disappear the area where the CCTV is not installed or illumination is not enough for capturing the scene (e.g. where the context-awarded system is not installed or low illumination presents). Therefore, in this paper we present an improved in-door tracking system based on sensor networks. Such system is built on a simulated scenario and enables us to detect and extend the area of surveillance as well as actively responding the emergency situation. Through simulated studies, we have demonstrated that the proposed system is capable of supplementing the shortcomings of signal cutting, and of estimating the location of the moving object. We expect the study will improve the better analysis of the intruder behavior, the more effective prevention and flexible response to various emergency situations.

Today's commercial high resolution satellite imagery such as IKONOS and QuickBird, offers the potential to extract useful spatial information for geographical database construction and GIS applications. Extraction of 3D building information from high resolution satellite imagery is one of the most active research topics. There have been many previous works to extract 3D information based on stereo analysis, including sensor modelling. Practically, it is not easy to obtain stereo high resolution satellite images. On single image performance, most studies applied the roof-bottom points or shadow length extracted manually to sensor models with DEM. It is not suitable to apply these algorithms for dense buildings. We aim to extract 3D building information from a single satellite image in a simple and practical way. To measure as many buildings as possible, in this paper, we suggested a new way to extract building height by triangular vector structure that consists of a building bottom point, its corresponding roof point and a shadow end point. The proposed method could increase the number of measurable building, and decrease the digitizing error and the computation efficiency.

Petroglyphs is an essential part of the worldwide cultural heritage since it plays a key role for the comprehension of prehistoric communities previous to writing. nowadays 3D data are a critical component to permanently record the form of important cultural heritage so that they might be passed down to future generations. Recent 3D scanning technologies allow the generation of very realistic 3D model that can be used for multimedia museum exhibitions to attract the users into the 3D world. In this paper, we develop the 3D petroglyph VR contents based on a novel gesture recognition method. The proposed gesture recognition method can recognizes the movements of the user using 3D depth sensor by comparing with the pre-defined movements. Also this paper presents new approaches for 3D petroglyphs data recording using 3D scanning technology as accurate and non-destructive tools.

Augmented reality is a field of computer research which deals with the combination of real-world and computer-generated data, where computer graphics objects are blended into real footage in real time and it has tremendous potential in visualizing geospatial information. However, to utilize augmented reality in mobile system, many researches have undergone with GPS or marker based approaches. Localization and tracking of current position become more complex problem when it is used in indoor environments. Many proposed RF based tracking and localization. However, it does cause deployment problems of large sensors and readers. In this paper, we present a noble markerless AR approach for indoor navigation system only using a camera. We will apply this work to mobile seamless indoor/outdoor u-GIS system.

By estimating environment light distribution, we can generate realistic shadow images in AR(augmented reality). When we estimate light distribution without sensing equipment, environment light model, geometry of virtual object, and surface reflection property are needed. Previous study using 3D marker builds surrounding light environment with a geodesic dome model and analyzes shadow images. Because this method employs candidate shadow maps in initial scene setup, however, it is difficult to estimate precise light information. This paper presents a novel light estimation method based on hierarchical light distribution model subdivision. By using an overlapping area ratio of the segmented shadow and candidate shadow map, we can make hierarchical subdivision of light geodesic dome.

Recently, VR and AR are emerging as an area of interest in ICT. In virtual reality to feel like a real, many people are looking for them because of its charm. However, the motion of the VR image and the moving object are not synchronized exactly, and a problem of feeling nausea is also occurring. The problem should be solved by the application of Attraction in the VR system. In this paper, we propose a module that minimizes delay time by synchronizing movement of VR image and moving object. The proposed module calculates the moving distance using the direction and the acceleration sensor that the user views through the VR device. The module proposed in this paper will pay attention to the fact that the movement of the attraction moves along a fixed path, so that the accurate travel distance can be calculated.
