The missing child problem is no more a personal problem. It became a social problem that all parents must consider. To this, this study applies USN/RFID technology integrated with GIS for the prevention of missing child. Although RFID is not designed for location sensing, but now it is regarded as a device to facilitate real time location awareness. Such advantages of RFID can be integrated with 4S(GIS/GPS/LBS/GNSS) achieving much synergy effects. In order to prevent kidnapping and missing child, it is necessary to provide a missing child preventing system using a ubiquitous computing system. Therefore, the missing child preventing system has been developed using high-tech such as RFID, GPS network, CCTV, and mobile communication. The effectiveness of the missing child prevention system can be improved through an accurate location tracking technology. This study propose and test a location sensing system using the active RFID tags. This study verifies technical applied service, and presents a system configuration model. Finally, this paper confirms missing child prevention system utilization possibility.

In this paper, we propose an indoor positioning technique using the landmark based on relative Access Point (AP) signal strengths. The absolute values of AP signals are used to conventional indoor positioning technologies, but they may be different because of the difference of the measuring device, the measuring environment, and the timing of the measurements. However, we found the fact that the flow of the AP's RSSI in certain places shows almost constant patterns. Based on theses characteristics, we identify the relative strength between the APs and store the certain places as landmarks where they show certain patterns. Once the deployment of the landmark map is complete, system calculate position of user using the IMU sensor of smartphone and calibrate it with stored landmarks. Our system shows 75.2% improvement over technology that used only sensors, and 39.6% improvement over technology that used landmarks that were selected with absolute values.

Due to the recent proliferation of video contents, previous contents expressed as the character or the picture are being replaced to video and growth of video contents is being boosted because of emerging new platforms. As this accelerated growth has a great impact on the process of universalization of technology for ordinary people, video production and editing technologies that were classified as expert's areas can be easily accessed and used from ordinary people. Due to the development of these technologies, tasks like that recording and adjusting that depends on human's manual involvement could be automated through object tracking technology. Also, the process for situating the object in the center of the screen after finding the object to record could have been automated. Because the task of setting the object to be tracked is still remaining as human's responsibility, the delay or mistake can be made in the process of setting the object which has to be tracked through a human. Therefore, we propose a novel object tracking technique of CMT combining the face detection technique utilizing Haar cascade classifier. The proposed system can be applied to an effective and robust image tracking system for continuous object tracking on the smartphone in real time.

최근 유비쿼터스 네트워크 환경을 통해 새롭고 다양한 서비스가 개발되고 있다. 그 중, 위치기반 서비스(Location Based Services: LBS)는 GPS나 이동 통신망을 사용해 사용자나 사물의 위치를 파악하고 이를 기반으로 유용한 서비스를 제공하는 기술이다. 이 기술은 공공 안전 서비스나 위치 추적, 항법 서비스, 정보제공 서비스 등에 적용되어 사용될 수 있다. 하지만 기존의 위치 기반 시스템은 실내 및 건물 밀집지역에서 위치 인식이 쉽지 않고 사용자의 위치 정보가 누출될 위험성이 있다는 문제점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 이동 통신망과 무선 근거리 통신망에서 동작하는 이동 에이전트를 이용하여 위치기반 서비스를 구성하였다. 본 기법은 Hybrid Peer to Peer 방식을 이용하여 건물 밀집 지역이나 지하, 실내에서도 정확한 위치측정이 가능하고 개인의 위치 정보도 노출되지 않으며, 나아가 개인 이동 단말기의 상황 인식 컴퓨팅(Context-Aware Computing) 환경 구축에도 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대 된다.

In general, under interactive broadcasting environment, user finds additional service using top-down menu. However, user can't know that additional service provides information until retrieval has finished and top-down menu requires multi-level retrieval. This paper proposes the new method for additional service providing not using top-down menu but using object selection. For the purpose of this method, the movie of a MPEG should be synchronized with the object information(position, size, shape) and object tracking technique is required. Synchronization technique uses the Directshow provided by the Microsoft. Object tracking techniques use a motion-based tracking and a model-based tracking together. We divide object into two parts. One is face and the other is substance. Face tracking uses model-based tracking and Substance uses motion-based tracking base on the block matching algorithm. To improve precise tracking, motion-based tracking apply the temporal prediction search algorithm and model-based tracking apply the face model which merge ellipse model and color model.

This study introduces an innovative approach to monitor the whereabouts of workers within indoor construction settings. While traditional modalities such as GPS and NTRIP have demonstrated efficacy for outdoor localizations, their precision dwindles in indoor environments. In response, this research advocates for the adoption of Aruco markers. Leveraging computer vision technology, these markers facilitate the quantification of the distance between a worker and the marker, subsequently pinpointing the worker's instantaneous location with heightened accuracy. The methodology's efficacy was rigorously evaluated in a real-world construction scenario. Parameters including system stability, the influence of lighting conditions, the extremity of measurable distances, and the breadth of recognition angles were methodically appraised. System stability was ascertained by maneuvering the camera at a uniform velocity, gauging its marker recognition prowess. The impact of varying luminosity on marker discernibility was scrutinized by modulating the ambient lighting. Furthermore, the camera's spatial movement ascertained both the upper threshold of distance until marker recognition waned and the maximal angle at which markers remained discernible.

This paper proposes a precise drone-positioning technique using a differential global positioning system (DGPS). The proposed system consists of a reference station for error correction data production, and a mobile station (a drone), which is the target for real-time positioning. The precise coordinates of the reference station were acquired by post-processing of received satellite data together with the reference station location data provided by government infrastructure. For the system's implementation, low-cost commercial GPS receivers were used. Furthermore, a Zigbee transmitter/receiver pair was used to wirelessly send control signals and error correction data, making the whole system affordable for personal use. To validate the system, a drone-tracking experiment was conducted. The results show that the average real-time position error is less than 0.8 m.

Gaze detection is to locate the position on a monitor screen where a user is looking. In our work, we implement it with a computer vision system setting a single camera above a monitor and a user moves (rotates and/or translates) his face to gaze at a different position on the monitor. To detect the gaze position, we locate facial region and facial features(both eyes, nostrils and lip corners) automatically in 2D camera images. From the movement of feature points detected in starting images, we can compute the initial 3D positions of those features by camera calibration and parameter estimation algorithm. Then, when a user moves(rotates and/or translates) his face in order to gaze at one position on a monitor, the moved 3D positions of those features can be computed from 3D rotation and translation estimation and affine transform. Finally, the gaze position on a monitor is computed from the normal vector of the plane determined by those moved 3D positions of features. As experimental results, we can obtain the gaze position on a monitor(19inches) and the gaze position accuracy between the computed positions and the real ones is about 2.01 inches of RMS error.
