In this study, aimed at improving the existing acoustic emission sensor for real time monitoring, a macro-fiber composite (MFC) transducer was employed as the acoustic emission sensor in the gas leak detection system. Prior to implementation, structural analysis was conducted to optimize the MFC's design. Consequently, the flexibility of the MFC facilitated excellent adherence to curved pipes, enabling the reception of acoustic emission (AE) signals without complications. Analysis of AE signals revealed substantial variations in parameter values for both high-pressure and low-pressure leaks. Notably, in the parameters of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) graph, the change amounted to 120% to 626% for high-pressure leaks compared to the case without leaks, and approximately 9% to 22% for low-pressure leaks. Furthermore, depending on the distance from the leak site, the magnitude of change in parameters tended to decrease as the distance increased. As the results, in the future, not only will it be possible to detect a leak by detecting the amount of parameter change in the future, but it will also be possible to identify the location of the leak from the amount of change.

화재발생 시 인명 안전을 위하여 초기의 화재감지가 매우 중요한 요인이다. 기존 연기감지기의 경우 일정한 조건만 맞으면 작동하기 때문에 비화재보의 우려가 높다. 특히 차량 매연도 연료가 연소되어 나오는 연기이므로 차량정체 시 트럭 등에서 발생하는 심한 매연에도 반응하여 오작동의 가능성이 높다. 이러한 기존 화재감지기의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 다양한 IR 레이저 기반 연기검출장치가 활용되고 있다. 하지만 IR 레이저 기반 연기검출장치는 100m 거리가 이격된 레이저 발광부와 수광부 구조에 따라 발광부 레이저광선의 각도변화에 따른 수광부 레이저 포인트 위치가 매우 민감하게 변화함에 따라 초기 레이저 포인트의 초점을 정확히 정합하고, 이후 보정하기 위한 고정밀 자동 초점 정합장치가 필요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 레이저 투광부와 수광부를 분리하여 레이저 송신기, 수신기로 구성되는 고정밀 자동초점 정합장치를 설계하고자 한다.

In this paper, a vital signal sensor based on impedance variation of resonator is presented. Proposed vital signal sensor can detect the vital signal, such as respiration and heart-beat signal. System is composed of resonator, oscillator, surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter, and power detector. The cyclical movement of a dielectric such as a human body, causes the impedance variation of resonator within the near-field range. So oscillator's oscillation frequency variation is effected on resonator's resonant frequency. SAW filter's skirt characteristic of frequency response can be transformed a small amount of frequency deviation to a large variation. Aim to enhance the existing sensor detection range, proposed sensor operates in 870 MHz ISM band, and detect respiration and heart-beat signal at distance of 120 mm.

This paper proposes a method to improve the performance of low cost infrared distance sensor. Infrared distance sensor measures the intensity of reflected light and converts it into distance. The proposed method improves the sensing distance of the sensor and makes it operate robustly in various lighting environments. This is achieved by extracting the characteristic curves of the sensor and applying the HDR (High Dynamic Range) technique. The output value of the sensor was obtained by varying the intensity of the infrared input and the exposure time, and the characteristic curve of the sensor was extracted from it.

This Paper Presents a novel incident detection method for using the speed-density difference between detectors. When a incident is happened the downstream traffic condition is mostly lower speed and higher density and the upstream is higher speed and lower density In respect of such characteristics, we can suggest a method for detecting an incident based on the speed-density information provided from detectors. The incident detection method is tested by using the accident data collected from the Cheonan-Nonsan Highway. The results show that suck an incident detection method can analyze the position of accident by comparing the speed-density difference between detectors. The work described in this paper is only at on early stage, in the sense that there are several areas to be further investigated in application of this method. such as setting a critical value for judging the incident. a level of accident wave, a varying Pattern between the incident locations and detectors, etc.

The car design has changed a lot over the past 100 years, but the side mirrors have not changed. It is not right in the fourth round of the Industrial Revolution. It is also an analog format, which has many disadvantages. Accordingly, by replacing the side mirror to the camera to change the digital it was improve the limitations and disadvantages of the 'mirror' with. It also has additional benefits such as fuel savings of 5 to 10 percent per year and automatic detection of threats. In this project, we used Razberry pie, which is highly compatible, as a main board, and connected infrared distance sensor and monitor module to focus on automatic threat detection.

This paper implements a door lock using PIR sensor based on Arduino. When the PIR sensor detects movement, the door lock device is activated and RFID tags can be used. This door rock can prevent lonely death by detecting whether the resident is in or out, and it also has hygienic advantage because it unlocks without contact by using RFID. In addition, as door locks are frequently used in everyday life, the above-mentioned implementation can also increase participation in hands-on lectures.

The cracks in the pavements result from drying shrinkage, temperature change, repeated traffic loadings and so on. The reduction of soil support, spatting and many local failures are caused by water and incompressible foreign materials infiltrated into the cracks. In order to reduce this kind of problems the crack width must be controlled and managed by the accurate measurement. The current method is a visual survey using a microscope, which requires traffic blocking. The purpose of this study is to find the best condition to measure accurate crack width using automated pavement condition survey equipment running at the similar speed as other vehicles. In this study pavement surfaces are filmed on an enlarged scale by the camera with a zoom lens, and then the proper focal distance is determined according to the crack width through a pilot survey. The conditions for measurement of the accurate crack width using the image processing technique are suggested by comparing crack widths surveyed using a microscope in the field with those computed by various factors in the image processing program, STADI-2. In conclusion, the camera with a focal distance of 75m could detect crack range of 0.5mm$\sim$1.2mm In width with an accuracy of 80% for CRCP. The camera with a focal distance of 12.5mm could detect crack range of 1.8mm$\sim$3.3mm in width with an accuracy of 90% for asphalt pavement.

To establish the basis of GPS network for the perception of diastrophism, we slected 7 stations(baseline $100{\sim}300km$) all around south Korea considering the earthquake and the satellites all-in-view. As a result of periodical measurement, the change of relative positions between selected stations in Korea was very small. We could know that the baseline between Korea and Japan are decreasing by a few centimeters, as one of the results of analysing baseline vector changes by continuous measuring IGS stations and Korea(KAMC) station.
