In this paper, we propose a haptic display system that can convert Braille and tactual map(braille map) to tactile information recognizable through sense of touch almost in real-time. The proposed system consists of a haptic display hardware device, which actually delivers tactile signal to visually impaired people, and a device control software program, which converts Braille and tactile information to tactile signal and transfers it to the hardware device. Experimental evaluations of the proposed system were performed with 10 visually impaired persons. Experimental results show that the proposed system can provide similar Braille recognition rate and speed to those of existing Braille information devices. In addition, the proposed system converts tactile information to tactile signal under maximum 1.1 seconds, so that it can provide graphic information in almost real-time which is not possible with existing tactile devices, such as Braille printer.

This study analyzed the posture balance of time variation for exercising body a period of time. Posture balance measured output values for the posture balance system of body moving in the multi-parameter. Posture moving variation had three methods such as open and closed eye, head moving and upper body moving. There were checked a parameter that measured vision, vestibular, somatosensory, CNS. This system was evaluated a data through the stability. This system has catched a signal for physical condition of body data such as a data acquisition system, data signal processing and feedback system. The output signal was generated Fourier analysis that using frequency of 0.1Hz, 0.1-0.5Hz, 0.5-1Hz and 1Hz over. The posture balance system will be used to support assessment for body moving the posture balance of time variation. It was expected to monitor a physical parameter for health verification system.

Micro-magnetic detection system is used to detect small particles in an automatic transmission valve body, which signal noise and time-delay may occurs in process of signal transmitting and filtering. In this paper, we present the design and implement of a micro-magnetic detection system based on wireless sensor networks in conveyer belt. Micro-magnetic detection system consists of five modules which are magnetic sensor detector, signal processing unit, wireless sensor networks, system control unit and system monitoring unit. Our experimental results show that the proposed wireless micro-magnetic detection system improves both accuracy and time delay compared to the wired system; therefore, it may apply for wireless micro-magnetic detection system by analysis of packet reception rate.

CCD형 영상소자는 방사선 피폭 시 표면과 격자내부에 모두 손상을 받게 되며, 감마방사선이나 X선과 같은 고에너지의 이온화 방사선에 노출될 경우 격자 실리콘 내부에 전자-전공쌍(Electron-hole pair, EHP)이 발생된다. 이러한 EHP는 CCD의 순간 출력 광전류로 변환되어 백색 화소 형태의 영상잡음으로 가시화되며, 이 화소 수는 피폭 방사선량에 비례하여 증가하는 특성을 지니고 있다. 따라서 출력 영상정보를 분석하면 조사된 방사선의 양과 특성을 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 CCD를 이용하여 가상의 방사능 물질 누출 공간에서 방사선원의 방향과 거리정보를 고속으로 탐지하기 위한 장치와 고속 측정 알고리즘을 구현하고 실제 방사선장에서 실증시험을 수행하였다. 방사선 탐지기는 콘형 납 콜리메이터(Collimator)와 가시광 변환용 신틸레이터(CsITl) 및 차폐체로 구성된 센서부와 제어 및 방사광 신호처리를 수행하는 PC부로 구성된다. 감마방사선($^{60}Co$) 방사선장 실증시험에서 방사선원간 거리 83cm에서 측정된 거리 탐지는 5.3%의 오차로 확인되었다. 이 방사선 탐지기는 임의의 고방사선 누출사고에 대한 초기대응 작업을 수행하기 위한 무인 이동로봇용 방사선 탐지기로 활용이 가능하다.

The aiming ability is a to improve accuracy performance of the firing vehicle. This paper describes the detection method of chatter vibration using disturbance acceleration in the pointing structure. In order to analysis vibration trends of the pointing system occurred during vehicle drive, acceleration data was processed by using data processing algorithm with moving average and Hilbert transform. Specific mode constants of acceleration were obtained under various disturbances. Vehicle velocity, road condition, property of pointing structure were considered as factors which make change of vibration trend in vehicle dynamics. Finally, back propagation neural networks have been applied to the pattern recognition for the classification of vibration signal in various driving conditions. Results of signal processing were compared and analysed.

As high quality digital cameras become readily available, digital cameras are being used not only for simple picture recording but also as information storing media in various fields. However, due to the fact that the spectral responses of the camera sensors are different from color matching functions of the CIE standard observer, the color can not be measured using these cameras. This study shows a method for converting camera image to sRGB image, in which color information is preserved. The transfer matrix between camera output signals and CIE stimulus values was determined using a multiple regression method with Macbeth ColorChecker as target colors. The CIE stimulus values for camera output signals can be mapped with a transfer matrix, and these values are converted to sRGB signals. As the result of testing a Kodak DC220 digital camera, the average color difference of Macbeth ColorChecker between true and displayed colors was 2.1 $\Delta$ $E_{ab}$ $^{*}$.$^{*}$.

The current railway control system in Korea is comprised of signaling, electric rail power, communication, and maintenance systems that are independent of each other. Further, these systems have different mediums and protocols for transmitting the field equipment data to the central control system. The Safety Supervision System has as its purpose the collecting of safety-related data from each system to predict and prevent accidents, this system utilizes standard protocol. Safety-related data need to be collected from field data transmission devices of the existing control system, the data should be collected without affecting the communication of the existing system. In this study, sniffing skill, which is typically used for network traffic monitoring or security, is used to collect data. The problems arising from the use of sniffing devices are noted, and the Packet Conversion Node is proposed as a solution to the problems. Further, functional and performance testing were completed for the prototype, and the software architecture and packet conversion process were verified.

전력시스템 주파수는 주파수 계전기용도 이외에 전력시스템에 대용량 집중전원 및 소규모 분산전원이 연계될 때 동기 검정 계전기와 발전기 및 소내 변압기의 과여자 상태를 감지하는 V/F 계전기에서도 사용된다. 주파수 계측장치는 주파수 및 주파수 편이를 실시간으로 정확하고 신속하게 측정함으로서 정규 주파수를 유지시키고 더 나아가 사고파급방지에 대한 책무를 수행해야 한다. DFT필터는 광범위하게 사용되었으나 주파수가 편이하게 되면 오차가 발생된다. 근래 웨이브릿 변환이 새로운 주목을 받고 것은 지속적인 연구 결과, 단일 반복 방정식 형태로 연산 부담이 적어 실시간 신호 처리에 적당한 고속 반복 이산 웨이브릿 변환이 제시되었기 때문으로 생각된다. 본 논문에서는 FRDWT에 의한 주파수 추정 기법을 제시하고자 한다. 제시된 기법의 성능 평가는 발전기 내부사고와 외부사고 데이터에 의해 이루어졌다.

바이오 센서는 생물학적 인식 반응(Biological recognition reaction)이나 생물 촉매 공정(Bio-catalytic process)을 측정 가능한 전기적 신호로 변환시켜주는 적절한 변환기(Transducer)와 같은 생물학적 인식요소로 이루어진 감지 장치를 의미한다. 1962년 효소를 이용한 Glucose 전극봉의 개발이후 이 분야에 대한 수많은 연구와 기기의 개발이 진행되어왔다. 분석도구로써 바이오 센서는 효소, 항체, 수용체, 세포, 조직 등과 같은 생물학적 인식 요소들에 광범위하게 적용 가능하다는 장점이 있는 반면, 위에 열거한 생물학적 인식 요소들의 불안정성으로 인해 신뢰성이 유지되지 못하는 단점을 동시에 지니고 있다.
