A smart home provides services that its inhabitant needs or wants, by integrating and simultaneously controlling various devices and sensors. In this study, we focused on a smart-home system for people with disabilities and for elderly people. We introduced a new type of system for real-time analysis of body posture of the inhabitants of a smart home. The system includes the concept that offers remote healthcare or medical services by using a 3D tilt sensor for recognizing the static and dynamic postures of inhabitants in real time. It consists of a smart-home server and a 3D tilt sensor, and it uses wireless technology to communicate with the inhabitants and thus enhance their mobility. The smart-home server includes the inference engine that differentiates the dynamic postures from the static ones. Finally, we also demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed system by applying it to a real environment.

This paper presents smart laundry management system using wireless Radio Frequnecy Identification (RFID) reader for efficient managing a large amount of laundry and clothing. The proposed system is comprised of wireless RFID hanger, base module connected on PC, and server system. The wireless RFID hanger with RFID reader read RFID tag attached on clothes and transmit tag information using wireless communication. The server system manage customers and his clothing using Database (DB) and display the information on the web page and smart phone devices. Since the proposed system operates with battery, we can evaluate its lifetime to measure current consumption. The designed system can be utilized to manage quantities of clothes and also it will be a good service to improve efficiency of laundry process.

Focusing on the bridge facilities, which occupy the largest proportion among SOC public facilities in Korea, it is possible to reduce the cost compared to existing wired measurement systems or wireless measurement systems developed by domestic telecommunications companies, and to increase the technical perfection to be applied to many bridges. We developed a wireless measurement system for bridges. Using LoRa, one of the unlicensed LPWAN technologies, we have developed an optimized MEMS-based LoRa smart sensor node considering the domestic ISM band and the existing wired sensor LoRa DAQ sensor node that can communicate with the LoRa network. Application server was developed for the test bed performance verification and efficient management of the developed sensor node.

An LED lighting control system was developed to combine information technology and LED lights for efficient management and energy savings. The system can monitor and control the status of an LED luminaire using Bluetooth wireless communication, sensor technology, and smart phones. An LED lighting control circuit was designed using a temperature sensor, illumination sensor, and Bluetooth module with a fuzzy constant-current control circuit. We extended the lifetime and prevented damage to the LED by optimizing the supply current of the LED luminaire based on the heat-generation temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ of an LED heat sink. We also automatically adjusted the ON/OFF time depending on the ambient illumination of the LED luminaire. By allowing easy control of the LED luminaires on a smartphone, we improved the efficiency and achieved energy savings. The control system was validated through experiments for normal operation.

본 연구는 안드로이드 스마트폰 시스템을 기반으로 하여 점점 증가하는 프레젠테이션의 중요성 및 필요성에 따라 프레젠테이션을 효율적으로 진행하도록 돕는 무선 프리젠터 애플리케이션 개발에 관한 연구이다. 최근의 스마트폰은 휴대하기 편리한 특징과 다양한 기능들로 인해 빠른 속도로 보급되고 있으며, 여러 가지 기능의 센서가 내장되어 있다. 이러한 특징을 활용하여 별다른 기기 없이 스마트폰 자체를 무선 프리젠터로 사용할 수 있으며, 이에 대한 연구 및 개발들이 진행되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 프리젠터 애플리케이션들은 인터페이스가가 너무 복잡해서 사용하기 불편하거나, 혹은 인터페이스가 너무 단순하여 제한된 기능만을 가지는 단점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해서 제스쳐 인식을 활용하여 직관적으로 애플리케이션 사용이 가능하며, 멀티터치 제스처를 활용함으로써 다양한 기능을 수용할 수 있는 무선 프리젠터를 제안한다.

최근 스마트폰 보급률 증가 및 무선 센서 네트워크(Wireless Sensor Networks) 기술 발전에 따라 해당 기술을 화재감시, 침입 감지와 같은 응용에 융합하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만 기존 연구들은 주기를 기반으로 감지를 수행하기 때문에 화재 및 침입 판단이 지연되는 문제점이 존재한다. 이를 위해, 본 논문에서는 판단 주기를 동적으로 설정하는 조기 화재 판단 알고리즘을 통해 화재 판단 시간을 단축시켜 빠른 대처를 할 수 있도록 지원하는 새로운 화재감시 및 침입 감지 시스템을 개발한다. 아울러, 적외선 센서를 이용하여 무단 침입을 감지함으로써 도난 및 파손과 함께 방화로 인한 화재를 방지할 수 있다. 마지막으로 성능평가를 통해 제안하는 시스템이 화재 판단 측면에서 기존 연구보다 우수함을 입증한다.
