In this study, we have studied a system to reduce the inconvenience and the accident rate at the intersection when the visually impaired use traffic information by using pressure sensor and ultrasonic sensor. By using the pressure sensor to light the strip LED, the driver recognizes the pedestrian, thereby reducing the accident rate. In addition to the pedestrian signal light information, the ultrasonic sensor and Bluetooth transmit the bus position information to the application so that the user can listen to the voice.

An efficient battery usage of sensor nodes is main goal in a sensor network, which is the substructure of Internet of Things. Maximizing the battery usage of sensor nodes makes the lifetime of sensor network increase as well as the reliability of the network improved. The previous solutions to solve these problems are mainly focused on the cluster head selection based on the remaining energy. In this paper, we consider both the head selection and the replacement interval which is determined by a threshold that is based on the remaining energy, density of alive nodes, and location. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme has outstanding contribution in terms of maximizing the life time of the network and balancing energy consumption of all nodes.

A compass device which indicates the right direction using the recorded voice was developed to assist the people who are blind when they are walking and moving to somewhere. The developed voice compass consists of a sensing module which recognizes the terrestrial magnetism with magnetic sensor, voice recorder IC, speaker and microprocessor which controlled all the components. It has 32 directions resolution and can continuously indicates the progressing direction with established time interval for the user convenience. It can help walking of the blind people and designed to be used in various sports and leisure. The performance of the developed device was verified by experiment with person who are blind.

In this paper, we propose a walking assisting system for blind people using Android smartphone and Arduino board. In our proposed system, we use an Android smartphone case and an external ultrasonic sensor to detect the obstacles ahead. In this manner, blind people is able to aware unexpected objects by smartphone speakers or vibration functionality. In addition, the walking assisting system is also designed a notice system which will be triggered by built-in smartphone camera flash when blind people walk in some darkness place. The experimental results from real experiments on blind people have demonstrated the applicability of our walking assisting system, when it not only efficiently helps blind people avoid obstacles ahead but also possible traffic collisions in darkness condition.

This paper proposed visualization tool for motion of snowboarding using Skeleton data obtained by the Microsoft's Kinect sensor. The BBP(Balanced Body Position) posture is a most basic motion in the Snowboarding. This posture is the primary technology for stable turns. The implementation of visualization tool to analyse the BBP posture of snowboard. comparative analysis with standard postures to the ankles, knees, hips and spine angle of joints and body tracking using coordinate information obtained by the Kinect Sensor. Analysis of the final results of the screen through the OpenGL library. This research result could be used to analysis for turn postures of snowboarding.

We introduce the algorithms of 3-D position estimation using a laser sensor for automatic die remodeling. First, a vision sensor based on the optical triangulation was used to collect the range data of die surface. Second, line vector equations were constructed by the measured range data, and an analytic algorithm was proposed for recognizing the die location with these vector equations. This algorithm could make the transformation matrix without any specific corresponding points. To ascertain this algorithm, folded SUS plate was measured by the laser vision sensor attached to a 3-axis cartesian manipulator and the transformation matrix was calculated.

최근 IT기술이 점점 발달함에 따라 장애인의 일상생활을 편리하게 하는 도구들이 속속 개발되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 시각장애인들이 색상판별을 진동을 통해 감지할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였다. 이것은 최근 대중화되고 있는 사물인터넷(IoT)의 기반이 되는 아두이노 기술을 접목하여 다양한 스위치와 센서로 입력 값을 받아들여 LED, 모터와 같은 외부출력장치를 제어함으로써 상호 작용을 만들어 낼 수 있는 시스템이다. 구체적으로 제안하는 시스템은 컬러센서를 통해 색상을 감지하고 색상 값을 수치 값으로 읽어 들이고 수치 값에 진동의 세기 주기 등을 달리함으로 시각장애인이 색상을 판별할 수 있도록 되어있다.
