The existing CCTV has limitation such as problem on usage of the off-line type of recorded image for specific investigation, and requirement on interactive operator intervention for real-time surveillance. Therefore, it is required to develop the intelligent CCTV equipped with various functionalities in order to overcome drawbacks mentioned above. In this paper, implementation methods of image-based virtual fence were proposed by using the spline curves with supplied control for setup of surveillance area. In addition, pre-alarm region within the predefined distance was established with tangent and normal lines extracted from control points. The image-based virtual fence can be used for remote detection of intrusion and provision of real-time intrusion alarm, and can be expected to use in safety-related application areas including security and crime prevention.

Railway obstacle detecion system has been introduced with high-speed railway in 2004 to prevent accidents by obstacles such as landslide, rockfall and things fallen from the gauntry over the railway. But existing system has some limitation for landslide or fallen obstacle over railway. Therefore, In this study, we suggest new advanced obstacle detection system introducing the OTDR, optical fiber fences and detection cameras. This system can detect depression degree by the force to the fences and video for the specific region as well as detection wire Off condition. We produce and functional tests for fiber fence and OTDR, which are the core parts of the development system, and results were obtained to demonstrate improved detection capabilities. Several functions also been tested to verify the advanced detection performance and got some satisfactory results. Further we will conduct environment tests and field test.

최근 들어 산업설비 및 건축물의 대형화, 다 기능화 추세가 두드러지게 나타나고 있는 가운데 외부침입에 의한 재산상의 피해 및 기밀누설 등의 문제가 급증하고있는 추세이다. 이에 외부침입에 대한 근원적인 원인과 발생가능성을 미연에 방지하는 보안시스템의 개발이 무엇보다도 중요해지고 있다. 기존의 보안시스템은 인간이 직접 경계활동을 벌이는 구조 또는 장력, 광케이블을 이용한 보안망의 구조를 가지고 있다. 이들 시스템은 보안효과의 비능률성, 고가, 기계적강도의 떨어짐 등의 문제를 지니고 있다 이에 본 연구는 울타리로써의 역할만을 강조하는 기존의 펜스의 기능에 자기 판단능력을 부여함으로서 한 단계 진보된 성능의 보안시스템 개발에 그 목적을 두고 있다(중략)

Frequent accidents occur when workers at construction sites leave the safety zone, and particularly in the past 5 years, 9 fatal accidents occurred at the Korea Railroad Corporation due to train accidents on other tracks during track work. With the Severe Accident Punishment Act taking effect in January 2022, it is a priority to secure a safe work environment for workers at industrial (construction) sites. Therefore, there is a need to manage workers' departure from the safety zone (construction zone) and to facilitate communication within the construction zone. In this study, a mobile edge computing CCTV system is proposed that uses geofencing to determine whether workers are working in the danger zone, which can judge and respond in real-time to the ever-changing field environment. The proposed system is mobile and flexible, rather than server-based fixed CCTV. However, since it is designed mainly based on images, it has limitations in recognition rate depending on the environment such as distance, viewing angle, and illumination. As a way to compensate for this, it is required to develop more reliable equipment by combining technologies such as LiDAR and Radar.

본 연구에서는 국내에서도 아직 초기단계 기술이라고 할 수 있는 간섭계를 이용한 주요 시설물(변전소등) 안전 감시 혹은 항만 감시 및 방어용 광섬유 격자 그물망 구현을 위한 광섬유 시스템 적용성을 연구한 것이다. 연구에서는 마흐젠더 간섭계의 구성에 비해 구성이 용이한 Sagnac간섭계를 구성 실험하였다. 이 간섭계의 성능 검증을 위하여 1550nm의 중심파장을 방사하는 레이저, 싱글모드 광섬유, 3${\times}$3 커플러 등의 광소자를 사용하였고, 광섬유의 길이의 변화를 주기 위하여 PZT 위상 변조기에 교류 전원을 인가하여 PZT 위상 변조기의 진동을 유도하였다. 또한, 전체 길이 약 180cm, 17${\times}$7, 철봉의 직경 6m의 철망 구조물을 제작후, 센서 부분의 역할을 담당한 광섬유 케이블을 일정한 간격으로 철망 구조물에 케이블 타이로 고정하였다. 철망 구조물에서 발생할 수 있는 각종 외부 가진에 대해, 철망 구조물에 가속도계를 설치하여, Sagnac 간섭계에서의 광 간섭 신호와 가속도계의 신호를 비교 검증 하였다. 본 실험결과를 통하여 광섬유 펜스는 주요 시설물(변전소등) 안전 감시 혹은 항만 감시 및 방어용 경보 시스템에 적합하다고 판단된다.

Recently, the importance of industrial fieldbus has been highlighted since the emergence of Industry 4.0. In particular, the Ethernet-based fieldbus protocol is actively used in automation systems. This paper proposes a safety fence system based on EtherCAT, a type of Ethernet-based fieldbus, to measure external loads. In order to measure the external loads, a force sensor was connected to an EtherCAT slave that transmits the sensor data to an EtherCAT master in real-time. The master ultimately controls the angle of the safety fence when it detects danger based on the given data. In the future, more effiecient safety fence system will be developed by using a HMI system to communicate with the EtherCAT master to manage safety and by employing multiple sensors to increase the accuracy of the fence system.

This paper presents a performance testing device for safety fences of domestic professional baseball stadiums. Safety fences of professional stadiums have been fabricated and installed without adhering to any safety regulations, safety fences demonstrate critically low safety performances and many outfielders are severely injured every season. In this study, we designed and fabricated a performance testing device for safety fences and investigated its validity and reproducibility. A HIC (head injury criterion) was used for the statistical analysis of colliding data. We found that the optimal expulsion pressure and eliminated the accelerometer by replacing it with a velocity sensor using an estimation of the correlation between the momentum data obtained from velocity sensor and the impulse data from the accelerometer.

Short circuit and ground fault account for the primary causes of electrical fires. In this research, real-scale experiments were conducted to assess the possibility of electrical fires due to these causes. The experiment conditions were identical with an actual fire accident, in which the power cable was supported by an iron fence. The purposes of this research are to investigate the short circuit caused by wire cutting, the conductivity of the iron fence depending on its coating conditions, and the ground fault of one wire or two wires in an effort to reconstruct the fire accident. The test results show that, owing to the instant operation of circuit breaker in the moment of short circuit or ground fault, the generated ignition energy is far less than necessary to start an ignition. Therefore it is concluded that electrical fire is highly unlikely if the electric system is protected by a circuit breaker with normal functions.
