Sensor data have the characteristics such as numerous and continuous data. Therefore, it is required to develop an index which could retrieve a specific sensor data efficiently from numerous sensed data. The index should have an efficient delete operation for the past data to support the data archiving. In this paper, we have proposed and implemented an index splitting technique to support the sensor data archiving. These splitted indexes compose of a virtual index (that is, index management component), which is shown as single tree from outside. Experimental results show that in the case of 100,000 insert operations the splitted index performs 8% better than the traditional TB-tree maximumly. And the splitted index outperforms TB-tree with retrieving queries when the region of query is small and the size of time domain is large.

본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크의 특성을 고려한 미디어제어 프로토콜의 설계에 있어서의 고려사항 및 설계기법에 대해서 제안하고 있다. 무선 센서 네트워크는 제한된 에너지를 가지는 배터리를 에너지원으로 사용하는 센싱 디바이스들로 구성되어 있으며, 이러한 디바이스들로 구성된 네트워크는 하나 혹은 그 이상의 공통의 작업을 수행하는데 그 목적이 있다. 일반적으로 무선 센서네트워크는 ad hoc 헝태의 구조를 가지며, 각각의 노드들은 장시간동안 비활성화 상태에 머무르게 되며, 센싱을 하기 위한 특정 이벤트가 발생하였을 때만 활성 상태로 전이하게 된다. 이와 같은 센서 네트워크의 특성은 IEEE802.11 과 같은 기존의 무선 미디어 제어 프로토콜과는 차별성을 띄게 된다. 센서 네트워크는 노드별 미디어 접근 공정성이나 시간지연보다는 에너지절약과 위상자동설정에 더 중점을 두고 있기 때문에 이에 적합한 미디어 제어 기술이 필요한 것이다. 본 고에서는 에너지 소모를 최소화하고 위상 자동 설정을 지원하기 위한 3 가지의 기법들에 대해서 제안하고자 한다. 첫째로 이벤트 발생 여부에 따른 노드의 신호감지 및 Sleep 상태 전이 및 이웃 노드들과의 가상동기화기법을 이용한 에너지 절약 기법에 대해서 제안하고, 충돌회피 기법에 대해서 살펴보도록 하겠다.

최근 무선 통신의 발달과 임베디드 시스템의 확산으로 주변 상황을 감지하고 통신할 수 있는 저전력 장치인 무선 센서 네트워크에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 무선 센서 네트워크를 구성하는 노드들 간의 동기화, 순서화, 그리고 일관성 유지를 위하여 시간 동기화는 반드시 필요하다. 하지만 지난 20여 년간 연구되어진 분산 시스템에서의 시간 동기화 방법들은 풍부하지 않은 자원과 에너지 소모 등을 고려해야 하는 무선 센서 네트워크의 특성상 그대로 적용하기에는 어려운 점이 많다. 이에 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크에서의 누적 시간 정보를 이용한 시간 동기화 방법을 제안한다. 무선 브로드캐스트의 특성을 활용하여 시간 동기화의 제약 조건을 완화하여 높은 정확성을 제공하면서 한 번의 브로드캐스트 메시지만으로 시간을 동기화함으로써 에너지 손실을 최소화하였다. 이를 위해 송신자-수신자 방식의 구조에서 송신자는 시간 동기화를 위한 시간 정보를 브로드캐스트하고, 수신자는 누적된 시간 정보를 통해 편차와 편차율을 계산하여 송신자의 시간을 추정하고 동기화된 시간인 가상 시간을 계산하였다. 전체 센서노드들의 시간이 동기화할 수 있음을 분석하고 실험을 통해 효율성을 확인하였다.

As the use of computer has been popularized these days, an active research is in progress to make much more convenient and natural interface compared to the existing user interfaces such as keyboard or mouse. For this reason, there is an increasing interest toward Microsoft's motion sensing module called Kinect, which can perform hand motions and speech recognition system in order to realize communication between people. Kinect uses its built-in sensor to recognize the main joint movements and depth of the body. It can also provide a simple speech recognition through the built-in microphone. In this paper, the goal is to use Kinect's depth value data, skeleton tracking and labeling algorithm to recognize information about the extraction and movement of hand, and replace the role of existing peripherals using a virtual mouse, a virtual keyboard, and a speech recognition.

A 3D virtual character playing a role in a digital story-telling has a unique style in its appearance and motion. Because the style reflects the unique personality of the character, it is very important to preserve the style and keep its consistency. However, when the character's motion is directly controlled by a user's motion who is wearing motion sensors, the unique style can be discarded. We present a novel character motion control method that uses only a small amount of animation data created only for the character to preserve the style of the character motion. Instead of machine learning approaches requiring a large amount of training data, we suggest a search-based method, which directly searches the most similar character pose from the animation data to the current user's pose. To show the usability of our method, we conducted our experiments with a character model and its animation data created by an expert designer for a virtual reality game. To prove that our method preserves well the original motion style of the character, we compared our result with the result obtained by using general human motion capture data. In addition, to show the scalability of our method, we presented experimental results with different numbers of motion sensors.

In this paper, unmanned vehicle system and VFF algorithm development with vehicle dynamics is the main topic as a part of Intelligent Transportation System. Unmanned vehicle system is classified by vehicle system and control system. Authors used RC servo motor for longitudinal control via throttle angle, shift lever control, and brake control. For lateral control, authors used step motor, equipped with reduction gear. Unmanned vehicle has nine ultrasonic sensors in front of the unmanned vehicle. After the microcontroller computes the distance between unmanned vehicle and obstacle, the control computer calculates the steering angle enough to avoid the obstacle.

The sensor data measured by the legged robot are used to recognize the physical environment or information that controls the robot's posture. Therefore, a robot's ambulation can be advanced with the use of such sensing information. For the precise control of a robot, highly accurate sensor data are required, but most sensors are expensive and are exposed to excessive load operation in the field. The seriousness of these problems will be seen if the prototype's practicality and mass productivity, which are closely related to the unit cost of production and maintenance, will be considered. In this paper, the use of a virtual sensor technology was suggested to address the aforementioned problems, and various ways of applying the theory to a walking robot obtained through training with an actual sensor, and of various hardware information, were presented. Finally, the possibility of the replacement of the ground reaction force sensor of legged robot was verified.

As the world game marcket has been recording weak growth, the development of new gane concept is required to attract the gamer's attention from those who were fed up with the previous game paradigm. Recently, the game which can recognize the player's motions and provide new interaction between the game and user is more popular than ever before. In the games with somesthesia based on Virtual Reality, the sense of the reality is considered the most important factor for drawing immersion from the gamers. In this work, a new type of 3-axis accelerometer based interactive game interface which can effectively recognize the gamer' motion is suggested. Furthermore, various experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Since data-driven building technologies have been widely applied to building energy systems, the accuracy of building sensors has more impacts on the building performance and system performance analysis. Various building sensors, however, can have typical errors including a random error (noise) and a systematic error (bias). The systematic error is indicated by the difference between the mean of measurements and their true value. It may occur due to the sensor's physical condition, measured phenomena, working environments inside the systems. Unfortunately, a conventional calibration method has limitations in calibrating the systematic errors because of the difference between working environments and calibration conditions. In such situations, a novel sensor calibration method is needed to handle various sensor errors, especially for systematic errors, in building energy systems having various thermodynamic environments. This study proposes a building sensor calibration method named Virtual In-situ Calibration (VIC) and shows how it is applied into a real building system and how it solves the sensor errors.
