Recently, with the development of autonomous vehicle technology, the importance of precise road maps is increasing. A precise road map is a digital map with lane information, regulations, safety information, and various road facilities. Conventional precise road maps have been tested and developed based on the mobile mapping system (MMS). But they have not been activated due to high introduction costs. However, in the case of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the application field is continuously increasing. This study tries to extract information through classification of high-resolution UAV images for autonomous driving. Autonomous vehicle test roads were selected as study sites, and high-resolution orthoimages were produced using UAVs. In addition, the utilization of high-resolution orthoimages has been proposed by effectively extracting data for precise road map construction, such as road lines, guards, and machines through image classification. If additional experimentation and verification are performed, the field of UAV image use will be expanded, providing the data to automobile manufacturers and related public and private organizations, and venture companies will contribute to the development of domestic autonomous vehicle technology.

Installation of digital tachograph, black box, and ADAS have been enforced to commercial vehicles for preventing violent driving and accidents by the Traffic Safety Act in Korea. Nevertheless, the damage caused by road hazards has increased 1.5 times in 2016 compared to 2013. So, developing new technologies that can identify road hazard using the sensors installed in commercial vehicles are conducting by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. As a part of the technologies, this research analyze the error range of GPS installed in commercial vehicles that vary according to the driving speed. As a result, the average error was 9.72m at the driving speed of 100km/h, and the error was 2.1 times larger than the average error of 4.69m at the driving speed of 40km/h. The event point proper integration/separation range(m) was analyzed to be 20m with a recognition rate of 90% or more at the same point regardless of driving speed. The results of this research can be used as basic data for improving the accuracy of location-based data would be collected using commercial vehicles.

In this paper, proposes a delivery robot that can be autonomous driving learning. The proposed robot is designed to be used in park-type apartments without ground parking facilities. Compared to the existing apartments with complex ground and underground routes, park-type apartments have a standardized movement path, allowing the robot to run stably, making it suitable for students' initial education environment. The delivery robot is configured to enable delivery of parcels through machine learning technology for route learning and autonomous driving using cameras and LiDAR sensors. In addition, the control MCU was designed by separating it into three parts to enable learning by level, and it was confirmed that it can be used as a delivery robot for learning through operation tests such as autonomous driving and obstacle recognition. In the future, we plan to develop it into an educational delivery robot for various delivery services by linking with the precision indoor location information recognition technology and the public technology platform of the apartment.

Vehicle platoons starting a stopline are dispersed while travelling along the street and the delay at the next intersection depends on the arrival pattern of dispersed traffic flow. In this paper, the platoon dispersion charactiristics of our country, especially the time gap between passenger cars and buses caused by the dwell time at bus stops, were investigated through travel time surveys. Based on the survey results, on improved analysis method of intersection delay is proposed.

본 논문은 주행 중인 자동차에서 획득한 영상에서 배경과 도로영역 및 물체를 분리하기 위한 영역분할 기법과 물체 검출 기법을 제안하고자 한다. 영상내의 에지라인의 화소 간 연결성을 이용한 라인검출을 이용하여 도로의 윤곽선 정보를 추출하고 컬러분포를 통해 배경과 도로영역을 분리한다. 물체가 가지는 코너 특성을 이용하여 나타난 정보들의 군집화를 통해 후보영역을 얻고 컬러 성분을 이용하여 개별 물체를 분리해냈다. 제안된 알고리즘은 복잡한 배경을 갖는 도로영상의 경우에도 도로영역과 물체의 검출에 강인함을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

The number of vehicle-to-barrier collisions has increased due to improved driving environments. In addition, it is reported that the number of accidents led to impact severity larger than current capacity of a median barrier has increased. It is required to develop a high performance median barrier in order to secure expressway safety. This paper aims at proposing impact loading model and locations for a high performance median barrier based on analysis of median-barrier-related accident history. The SB6 test level (Impact severity: 420 kJ, Mass: 25 ton, Impact speed: 80 km/h, Impact angle: $15^{\circ}$) was suggested for target impact severity based on statistical data analysis. The suitable locations also were proposed from investigation of driver behaviors for installation and rehabilitation of high performance median barrier.

본 로봇은 wheeled type과 legged type의 장점을 함께 가지고 있으므로 주행 속도가 빠르며 환경적응력이 좋다. 기존 로봇과 비교할때 Y.Icihkawa등이 개발한 HLV와 가장 유사하지만 모터 3개로 6개의 바퀴-다리 유닛을 구동하므로 모터15개로 5개의 바퀴-다리유닛을 구동하는 Ichikawa HLV와 동력전달구조에서 많이 상이하다. 뿐만아니라 본 로봇은 3개의 모터만 사용했기 때문에 주행제어가 훨씬 간단하고 제작 비가 저렴하며 장애물 및 계단승강시 걸음새가 훨씬 간단하다.(Ichikawa HLV 경우 뒷 쪽 2개의 다리를 동시에 들 수 없기 때문에 계단 승강시 몸체 회전을 적절하게 섞어야 한다.)

Bicycle has a large amount of kinetic energy available for energy harvesting technology in its speedy and balanced riding movement. Systematic and realistic analysis of its dynamic property is essential to improve the efficiency of energy harvester. However, there has not been enough researches about precise measurement or analysis of bicycle dynamics on real roads. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of vibrational movement of bicycle using MEMS-based accelerometer and to develop a prototype of electromagnetic energy harvester with nonlinear behavior which is proper to the random vibrations accompanied in bicycle riding. The vibrational components have average magnitude of 1 g and turn out to be independent of riding speed. The developed prototype of energy harvester was installed on a front port of a bicycle to use this ambient vibration and generated an average electrical power of 1.5 mW which is enough to support power for most of portable sensors and short range radio-frequency communication. Further study about isolation of vibration from a rider and conversion efficiency is ongoing. The developed energy harvester is expected to be a platform technology for sustainable portable power supply for various smart IT devices and applications.

Recently, with the increase of the interest to global environmental problems, bicycle has been recognized as the most environmentally friendly transportation mode. To promote cycling, it is necessary to ensure road space that bicycle can keep running safely and smoothly. This paper aims to evaluate the district with rearranged road space and network, given priority to bicycle, comparing the traditional district which are given priority to car from viewpoints of environment, safety and accessibility. As evaluation indicators, the carbon dioxide emission on the environment. the number of collision between car and bicycle on safety and an accumulated frequency measure on accessibility were used. As the result, it was clarified that bicycle road measures to create bicycle road by reallocation of road space and form bicycle exclusive network were effective.

Autonomous vehicles are the 4th industrial revolution that utilizes artificial intelligence(AI) and superconducting technology, and is a world-wide investment and research project. However, a Uber vehicle under test in Arizona, USA, was accidentally killed by pedestrians crossing the road in the dark night, and accidents occurred when the Tesla vehicle was exposedto the backlightof the sun. These problems were caused by misunderstandings and choice about sensors mounted on autonomous vehicles due to bad weather such as snow, rain, and sunlight. In this paper, we analyze the composition of the autonomous vehicle and the cause of the accident, and consider the criteria that should be judged in case of emergency in which human accidents may occur. This paper analyzes the composition of autonomous vehicles and causes of accidents, and considers the criteria that should be choice in an emergency where an accident may occur.
