최근 화력 발전소 보일러 튜브의 노후화로 인해서 불시정지 빈도수 및 재가동 시간이 늦춰지고 있다. 이는 막대한 경제적, 사회적 손실로 이어지며, 이를 예방하기 위해서는 상태기반 정비가 필요하다. 현재의 상태기반 정비는 센서, 신호 수집장치, 신호 분석단계를 거쳐 전문가가 진단하기 때문에 즉각적으로 대응하기 어려운 문제점이 있어서 설비의 재가동 시간이 늦춰지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 전문가의 도움 없이 자동으로 상태를 진단하기 위해서 머신러닝 기법 중 하나인 서포트 벡터 머신(SVM)을 이용한 진단 알고리즘을 구현하고, 이를 탑재한 진단장치를 개발하여 비전문가들도 즉각적으로 대응할 수 있게 하여 불시정지 시간과 빈도수를 줄이고자 한다.

This paper proposes a target tracking control method for wheeled mobile robots with nonholonomic constraints by using a backstepping-like feedback linearization. For the target tracking, we apply a vision system to mobile robots to obtain the relative posture information between the mobile robot and the target. The robots do not use the sensors to obtain the velocity information in this paper and therefore assumed the unknown velocities of both mobile robot and target. Instead, the proposed method uses only the maximum velocity information of the mobile robot and target. First, the pseudo command for the forward linear velocity and the heading direction angle are designed based on the kinematics by using the obtained image information. Then, the actual control inputs are designed to make the actual forward linear velocity and the heading direction angle follow the pseudo commands. Through simulations and experiments for the mobile robot we have confirmed that the proposed control method is able to track target even when the velocity sensors are not used at all.

We experimented on AGV driving test with color CCD camera which is setup on it. This paper can be divided into two parts. One is image processing part to measure the condition of the guideline and AGV. The other is part that obtains the reference steering angle through using the image processing parts. First, 2 dimension image information derived from vision sensor is interpreted to the 3 dimension information by the angle and position of the CCD camera. Through these processes, AGV knows the driving conditions of AGV. After then using of those information, AGV calculates the reference steering angle changed by the speed of AGV. In the case of low speed, it focuses on the left/right error values of the guide line. As increasing of the speed of AGV, it focuses on the slop of guide line. Lastly, we are to model the above descriptions as the type of PID controller and regulate the coefficient value of it the speed of AGV.

There have been continuous efforts to automate welding processes. This automation process could be said to fall into two categories, weld seam tracking and weld quality evaluation. Recently, the attempts to achieve these two functions simultaneously are on the increase. For the study presented in this paper, a vision sensor is made, and using this, the 3 dimensional geometry of the bead is measured in real time. For the application in welding, which is the characteristic of nonlinear process, a fuzzy controller is designed. And with this, an adaptive control system is proposed which acquires the bead height and the coordinates of the point on the bead along the horizontal fillet joint, performs seam tracking with those data, and also at the same time, controls the bead geometry to a uniform shape. A communication system, which enables the communication with the industrial robot, is designed to control the bead geometry and to track the weld seam. Experiments are made with varied offset angles from the pre-taught weld path, and they showed the adaptive system works favorable results.

Accurate heading information is crucial for the navigation of intelligent vehicles. In outdoor environments, GPS is usually used for the navigation of vehicles. However, in GPS-denied environments such as dense building areas, tunnels, underground areas and indoor environments, non-GPS solutions are required. Yaw-rates from a single gyro sensor could be one of the solutions. In dealing with gyro sensors, the drift problem should be resolved. HDR (Heuristic Drift Reduction) can reduce the average heading error in straight line movement. However, it shows rather large errors in some moving environments, especially along curved lines. This paper presents a method called VDR (Vision-based Drift Reduction), a system which uses a low-cost vision sensor as compensation for HDR errors.

IoT 산업이 발전하면서 기존 토이와 IoT 기술을 결합한 스마트토이가 각광 받고 있다. 스마트토이는 수동적인 방식의 기존토이와는 다르게 토이 간 인터렉션이 가능하며 전자 센서들을 사용하여 토이를 사용하는 어린아이들에 코딩을 활용한 콘텐츠를 제공가능하다. 기존 스마트토이는 처음에는 호기심을 자극하지만, 익숙해지면 흥미가 떨어지는 현상을 보인다. 이에 본 논문에서는 기존 스마트토이가 갖는 재미요소 증가와 다양한 콘텐츠의 개발을 위해서 스마트 토이에 Artificial Intelligence(AI) 기능을 접목한 AI 카메라블록을 사용하여 새로운 콘텐츠를 개발하였다.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that estimates the location of lunar rover using IMU and vision system instead of the dead-reckoning method using IMU and encoder, which is difficult to estimate the exact distance due to the accumulated error and slip. First, in the lunar environment, magnetic fields are not uniform, unlike the Earth, so only acceleration and gyro sensor data were used for the localization. These data were applied to extended kalman filter to estimate Roll, Pitch, Yaw Euler angles of the exploration rover. Also, the lunar module has special color which can not be seen in the lunar environment. Therefore, the lunar module were correctly recognized by applying the HSV color filter to the stereo image taken by lunar rover. Then, the distance between the exploration rover and the lunar module was estimated through SIFT feature point matching algorithm and geometry. Finally, the estimated Euler angles and distances were used to estimate the current position of the rover from the lunar module. The performance of the proposed algorithm was been compared to the conventional algorithm to show the superiority of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a program to measure and to judge the accuracy of yoga postures using Azure Kinect. The program measures all joint positions of the user through Azure Kinect Camera and sensors. The measured values of joints are used as data to determine accuracy in two ways. The measured joint data are determined by trigonometry and Pythagoras theorem to determine the angle of the joint. In addition, the measured joint value is changed to relative position value. The calculated and obtained values are compared to the joint values and relative position values of the desired posture to determine the accuracy. Azure Kinect Camera organizes the screen so that users can check their posture and gives feedback on the user's posture accuracy to improve their posture.

자율운항 선박, 무인선 개발과 동 분야 디지털트윈 구현을 위해서는 선박 내부 데이터의 수집을 담당할 고신뢰성 선내 통신망 확보가 필수적이다. WiFi와 같은 전파 기반의 무선통신 시스템은 금속 구조물로 구성되는 선박 내 환경 자체가 원활한 통신의 장애 요소이다. 이러한 극한 환경 극복을 위해 자기장을 금속 표면에 유기하여 비 전파 기반으로 무선통신을 가능하게 하는 표면파 통신이 대안이 될 수 있다. 선박 전체의 일반 배치 관점에서 표면파 통신은 상갑판을 통해 크게 거주구역, 화물구역, 선수구역 및 기관구역 간 백본 통신망을 구성할 수 있으며 각 구역 별로는 부재의 개구부를 통해 금속 표면의 연속면을 확보하여 통신할 수 있다. 수밀 격벽의 표면파 통신 관통을 위해 비 도전체로 수밀은 유지한 채 아주 미세한 구멍을 확보하는 것으로도 금속 표면의 연속성을 확보할 수 있다. 이러한 표면파 통신을 활용하면 전파 기반의 무선통신, 비 전파 기반의 무선통신을 통합적으로 구성하여 선박 전체로는 선내 무선 백본망 구성, 그리고 각 구역 별로는 IoT 센서 네트워크 등의 선박 내부 고신뢰성 무선통신 확보가 가능하다.
