This paper deals with a 'Designeer' education program that has a specific objective of educating design to undergraduate students in mechanical engineering with the aim of enhancing their ability of collaboration with designers when they are going to work in the field after graduation. The entire curriculum of the Designeer education program is introduced first, the end of which two-semester Capstone Design Courses for senior students is offered to let them practice all the knowledge and skills in a project-based learning environment. Learning specific matters such as sketching & visual thinking, prototyping and user experience design is one thing and practicing those knowledge and skills into a Capstone Design project is another. At this point, design thinking process needs to be in place to give students a foresight of one-year journey and to ensure that they will produce a desirable, feasible and viable product at the end of the year when they define the right problem at the beginning. Their frustrations and discoveries while applying design thinking throughout the year is explained by taking an example of a Robot Vacuum Cleaner design project. Finally, we provide real examples of effective methods to practice divergent and convergent phases.

일상생활에서 빈번히 사용되는 주변 생활 제품은 기술의 급속한 발전과 더불어 지능화 정도가 가속화 되고 있는 추세에 있다. 일반적으로 LED 조명이나 실내 에어컨을 자동으로 조정하거나 자동청소로봇 등은 이미 일반화된 제품들이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 우리 생활에서 가장 필요한 용품인 거울에 대한 지능적인 제품은 비교적 고가이어서 소비자가 쉽게 접근하기 어려운 생활용품이 되고 있어서 지능화 제품의 보급이 더딘편이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Raspberry Pi 3B+ 를 기반으로 하여 음성제어가 가능한 스마트 미러를 설계하고 구현하였다. 이를 위하여 저렴한 raspberry pi의 WiFi를 통해 네트워크에 연결하도록 하여 미러가 시간, 날씨 및 뉴스 정보 기능을 자동으로 업데이트 할 수 있도록 하였고 기상 조건, 사전 시간 또는 음악 재생과 같은 음성 제어가 가능하기 위하도록 Google Asistant 음성 인터페이스를 적용하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 제품이 실용화될 경우 저가이면서 고기능 사양을 제공하고 있어서 스마트 미러 보급에 많은 기여가 예산된다.

For such automatic monitoring robot or a robot cleaner that is utilized indoors, if it deviates from someone by replacement or, or of a mobile robot such as collisions with unexpected object direction or planned path, based on the planned path There is a need to come back to, it is necessary to tough self-position estimation ability of mobile robot in this, which is also associated with resolution of the kidnap problem of conventional mobile robot. In this study, the case of a mobile robot, operates indoors, you want to take advantage of the low cost of the robot. Therefore, in this paper, by using the acquisition device to an external image information such as the CCTV which is installed in a room, it acquires the environment image and take advantage of marker recognition of the mobile robot at the same time and converted it absolutely spatial coordinates it is, we are trying to solve the self-position estimation of the mobile robot in the room and kidnap problem and actual implementation methods potential field to try utilizing robotic systems. Thus, by implementing the method proposed in this study to the actual robot system, and is promoting the relevant experiment was to verify the results.

In this paper the author proposes a case study of a freshmen introduction to engineering design course ing LEGO Mindstorm NXT and analyzes the survey results of the course. The diffilculties are that this course should provide various aspects of design experiences to the students while not requiring the major knowledge and skills and it should attract the students to the engineering major. According to our case study LEGO mindstorm can be a good solution to this problem. The design experience with LEGO Mindstorm NXT provides students with various aspects of design experiences including defining problem, finding constraints and functions, exploring design space, and performing preliminary design, as well as fun. This paper also provides a project list that can be used for freshmen design experience including soccer game robots, line tracer, and vacuum cleaner etc.

Artificial intelligence technology is widely used in industrial and smart home fields such as manufacturing robots, artificial intelligence speakers, and robot vacuum cleaners. In this paper, we designed and implemented a 1:1 chatbot system based on artificial intelligence for use in RCMS (Real-time Cash Management System). The RCMS chatbot implemented in this paper was constructed with a total of 210 query scenarios in nine areas, including research expenses and system usage, based on 13,500 questions and answers from existing online bulletin boards. The chatbot is expected to solve the problem of insufficient number of counselors and to increase user satisfaction by responding to the researcher's inquiries after working hours, and the recommendation service for the cost of use, which had the most inquiries from researchers, reduces the number of consultations. It is expected to improve the quality of answers to other counseling inquiries.

In this paper a technology which gives directions to people and also localization of the robotic vacuum cleaners inside some spacious buildings is developed. For this purpose, it is confirmed that which pattern has a small error in dealing with the indoor localization with various RFID tag arrangements attached on the ground. This experiment was conducted by using MT92(900MHz range Antenna) and ALR 9900+(Reader). As a result, the square arrangement has the least error, 21.19cm, among other patterns which are diamond, rectangle and regular hexagon. However, it is necessary to consider the number of tags in the unit area, from this point of view the regular hexagon arrangement is the most efficient arrangement among other patterns because it needs only 6 tags in the unit area.

Recently, as mobile operating system market and wireless communication technology have been rapidly developed, many devices such as smart phones, air conditioners, smart TVs, cleaning robot, and cameras become available with android operating system. Accordingly, collecting variety of information through many everyday use devices with network connections is now enabled. However, in the current market, most devices are controlled individually developed applications, and there is growing need to develop a master application that can control multiple devices. In this paper, we propose and implement a system that can control multiple android-based devices on a Wired/Wireless router(AP) registered through web server. we expect such an effort can attribute to future IoT researches.

In this paper, the human detecting radar system for indoor security applications is proposed, and its FPGA-based implementation results are presented. In order to minimize the complexity and memory requirements of the computation, the top half of the spectrogram was used to extract features, excluding the feature extraction techniques that require complex computation, feature extraction techniques were proposed considering classification performance and complexity. In addition, memory requirements were minimized by designing a pipeline structure without storing the entire spectrogram. Experiments on human, dog and robot cleaners were conducted for classification, and 96.2% accuracy performance was confirmed. The proposed system was implemented using Verilog-HDL, and we confirmed that a low-area design using 1140 logics and 6.5 Kb of memory was possible.

Has been released of make it possible to control the using for smart devices of a wide variety home appliances and electronics in smart appliances in accordance with the one person multi devices. In addition, is increasing rapidly for the number of the product on cleaning robot and refrigerator, air conditioning, TV, etc. these devices are using the implement up DLNA system. And at home and abroad for development and has provided with Iot and Alljoyn such systems. But currently using home appliances or electronic devices of there are a lot of the operating system non installed than the installed products. In addition, smart appliances do not use for user than buying existing electronic products a lot more. In addition, more occur for smart appliances of that do not use for the user on smart appliances rather than buying existing electronics. In this paper, Suggested and implemented for system of control such as smart devices to existed home appliance on not have an operating system, Using mobile device for want users to quantify the data to transfer from arduino board.
