The purpose of this study was to investigate the application of GLOBE program in Korea and its perception displayed by the Science High school Teachers. The interview using a questionnaire with 12 science high school teachers in Korea was conducted. It was attempted to find a problem occurring during the practical application for getting a basic data for the development of Korean GLOBE program. The results of this study are as follows: (1) The level of GLOBE program was for upper grade levelsin elementary school and middle school. The program may not be suitable for the Science High School students in Korea. (2) To successfully apply the GLOBE program in Korea, study levels and research subjects in the program must be further developed in terms of quality and areas. Suggestions for the possibility of adopting and operating the program in Korea are made as follows: (1) To effectively manage the GLOBE school sites, there has to be a headquarter system in place and operation under, say, the Korean Earth Science Society. (2) To ensure the program's identity and goals, it is to set up a center for the Korea GLOBE program with a financial support system established.

This paper proposes a data glove for a rehabilitation robot interface for the upper extremity paralysis. The designed data glove uses seven flexible sensors so as to measure the flexion angles of fingers and wrist. We verified the performance of the data glove using a 3D graphic interface developed. The experimental results show that the proposed data glove is feasible to sense hand motions and applicable to the robot interface.

최근 다양한 센싱장치와 HCI 디바이스를 결합하여 로봇이나 기계장치를 구동하려는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 또한 기존의 RC방식의 무인비행체 조작은 관련분야의 전문성을 필요로 할 만큼 접근하기 어려운 면이 있었다. 이에 본 논문에서는 소형 무인비행체(UAV)의 움직임 제어를 위해 데이터 글로브의 손가락 구부러짐을 인식하여 이를 통해 무인비행체를 조작하는 원격조종장치에 관한 시스템 구조 및 프로토콜을 제안한다. 이 시스템을 통해 비전문가로 하여금 무인비행체의 접근성을 높이며 다양한 분야에 활용 할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 데이터 글로브의 센싱 데이터에 대한 조합 및 해석방식을 정의하고, 이를 데이터 글로브의 손가락 구부러짐 해석에 적용하였다. 또한 조합된 명령신호를 전송하는 무인비행체의 구동 제어를 위한 비동기 Uplink 프로토콜을 제안하였다.

In this paper, we present a new exoskeleton-type data glove that can sense the movement of the human finger and reflect the force to the finger. The data glove is designed on the basis of the skeletal structure of the human hand, and the finger module has 1 degree-of-freedom because it includes three four-bar mechanism joints in series and a wire-coupling mechanism. In addition, the transmission ratio of the finger module is maintained at 1:1.4:1 over the entire movement range, and hence, the module can perform both extension and flexion. In addition, to enable adduction/abduction motion of the human hand, a unique MCP joint is designed by using two universal joints. To validate the feasibility of the data glove, master-slave control experiments based on force-position control between the data glove and the robot hand are conducted.

The valves used to control or shut off the flow through a pipeline can be divided into many different types, including gate valves, globe valves, and check valves. Globe valves, in particular, have excellent properties, and because they can easily control the flow under high-pressure conditions, they are generally used in LNG ship and steam pipelines. In this paper, a method for changing the shape of a seat was suggested to solve the valve leakage problem from a structural perspective. In addition, the stress distribution and directional deformation were compared for each model. The suggested models were thus validated, and the optimized seat structure, which includes a self-supporting capability for decreasing the amount of leakage, was determined.

In this paper, luminaire optical efficiency and luminous intensity according to array of HB(high brightness) white LED(light emitting diode) and globe types of luminaire were simulated by computer and made a comparative analysis. LEDs were arranged by square of 7ea X 7ea. LED space has been divided into 8.2mm, 10mm and 15mm that mean distances between luminous centers of LEDs, and luminaire globes were classified into 30mm and 50mm 묘묘 from luminous center of LEDs. Also the simulations were made with / without globe, globe types were specified by convex and embossing types of which sizes are 8.2mm and 5.0mm, So total 27 classes of simulation were performed. This paper is to help luminire development using LED light source called digital lighting of 21th century, by studying luminire effciency and luminous intensity of different types of globes.
