The method of estimating a position using a GPS has been applied to various fields including a navigation system of an automobile. However, since it is difficult to measure GPS signals indoors, it is difficult to locate specific objects indoors such as a building or factory. To overcome these limitations, this study proposes a system for object location estimation based on Bluetooth5 for the management of materials in factories. The object position estimation system consists of a Bluetooth signal generator, a receiver, and a database server. A signal generator based on Bluetooth Low Energy(BLE) is attached to the material and a receiver is appropriately arranged inside the factory. In this study, we propose "Diagonal Survey Method", a 4 - axis survey algorithm using four receivers to reduce the error of existing trilateration method. The proposed algorithm showed good performance compared to the conventional trilateration and we verified the effectiveness of the proposed system and algorithm by performing the experiment by installing the system in the factory.

The start of the Fourth Industrial Revolution has brought about various changes in the domestic industry in general, and smart factories have spread to companies in the fields of production, manufacturing and logistics, and they are using automation equipment. Especially in the field of logistics automation, AGVs are widely used, and most of them use the line guidance system, which is the traditional AGV drive system. In addition, the demand for AGV system developers, system operators and managers, and maintenance personnel is increasing, and the installation of systems for education is expensive and requires a large space to utilize. It is a situation where systematic education is difficult. In this paper, we propose a virtual simulation-based AGV distance education model for smooth practice of trainees. The proposed model consisted of a model that can drive the AGV by analyzing video information, instead of the line guidance method that is the conventional technology. As a result of self-diagnosis evaluation, it was confirmed that the experimental group through online education had an average satisfaction level of 0.65 higher than the control group using existing equipment, and that it could be used in an online education environment.

Purpose: This paper aims to propose a practical strategy for smart factories and a step-by-step quality strategy according to the maturity of smart factory construction. Methods: The characteristics, compositional requirements, and diagnosis system are examined for smart factories through theoretical considerations. Several cases of implementing smart factory are studied considering the company maturity level from the aspect of the smartness concept. And specific quality techniques and innovation activities are carefully reviewed. Results: The maturity level of smart factory was classified into five phases: 1) ICT non-application, 2) basic, 3) intermediate 1, 4) intermediate 2, 5) advanced level. A five-step quality strategy was established on the basis of case studies; identify, measure, analyze, optimize, and customize. Some quality techniques are introduced for step-by-step implementation of quality strategies. Conclusion: To build a successful smart factory, it is necessary to establish a quality strategy that suits the culture and size of the company. The quality management strategy proposed in this paper is expected to contribute to the establishment of appropriate strategies for the size and purpose of the company.

In this paper, we proposed real time free-length monitoring systems interlocking with the spring free-length sorter which shows the state of production connected to the spring production device. This systems enable the administrator to check the quality or quantity of product and the defect rate, etc., in the remote place. The proposed systems are comprised of the wireless device interlocking with PLC device, the server program, and user GUI program. The wireless device transmits the received data from PLC device to server program using Wi-Fi. Server program represents the data from the wireless device on the screen and insert those data into database. User GUI program shows data stored in database and supports the function which converts the stored data in DB to excel file.

IoT devices are widely used in network construction and are increasing. If necessary, heterogeneous IoT devices are used for data transmission. This paper proposes to prevent the method of data loss due to differences in throughput when the local network is constructed by Bluetooth 5 and long range network does by LoRa(Long Range). Data loss occur when the data transmits through LoRa, due to the throughputs of Bluetooth 5 faster than that of LoRa. The prevent method proposed by this paper can apply not only Bluetooth 5 and LoRa but heterogeneous IoT devices and expect to prevent data loss due to differences in throughput between heterogeneous IoT devices. Also, this paper shows the simulation result by applying the proposed avoid method. In this paper, two way to the preventive method shows the data transmission ratio and amount of memory that of necessity.

The trend of studying is changing, and it is not a place to study but also a new cultural environment. The study cafe, which is relatively free and comfortable compared to a stuffy library or reading room, is suitable for an unmanned system that can generate greater profits by reducing labor costs. However, the system that can manage this systematically is still insufficient and needs to be supplemented. In this paper, we developed an Android application that integrates the unattended study cafe and provides convenience to users through additional functions. The user and the manager are separated so that the user can use the desired study cafe in the corresponding region through reservation and inquiry of the seat. The manager manages seats and members and allows the outside of the cafeteria to check the current situation. In addition, community and noise measurements and member time visualization capabilities have been added to enhance application utilization.

As the Industrial Revolution progressed, Big Data technologies were used to develop a system that instantly identified the consequences of older vehicles using mobile devices. First, data from the vehicle was collected using the OBD2 sensor, and the data collected was stored in the raspberry pie, giving it the same situation that the raspberry pie was driving. In the event that vehicle data is generated, the data is collected in real time, stored in multiple nodes, and visualized and printed based on the processed, refined, processed and processed data. We can use Big Data in this process and quickly process vehicle data to identify it effectively through mobile devices.

In this era that technology is replacing human labor is coming. Like the introduction of Factory Automation and Smart Factory to enhance the productivity in manufacturing works in companies, RPA (Robotic Process Automation) is being applied to strengthen the competiveness in service & office work of companies. But, RPA itself is not mature enough to be the specific technology or solution, but burgeoning as the conceptual technology alternatives to automate the business process harnessed with the concept of software robots, artificial intelligence etc. The biggest difference that the introduction of RPA can make is the transition of the work based on 'human labor', to the 'digital labor' that could result in the replacement of human labor itself with that. Considering this kind of impact to change the concept of labor, the discussion for the future policy for this is inevitable. In this paper, beginning from the overview of RPA, relevant concerns & consideration for the application of RPA will be described based on the understanding of industrial & technology trends and expected future of RPA.

In the fourth industrial revolution, which has become an issue now, we have been able to receive instant analysis results faster than the existing slow speed through various Big Data technologies, and to conduct real-time monitoring on mobile and web. First, various irregular sensor Data is generated using IoT device, Raspberry Pi. Sensor Data is collected in real time, and the collected data is distributed and stored using several nodes. Then, the stored Sensor Data is processed and refined. Visualize and output the analysis result after analysis. By using these methods, we can train the human resources required for Big Data and mobile related fields using IoT, and process data efficiently and quickly. We also provide information that can confirm the reliability of research results through real time monitoring.
