Micro-electronics를 핵으로 하는 기술혁신의 물결이 눈부시고, 우리 주변의 일상생활이 하루가 다르게 변해 가고 있다. Leading-edge technology, high technology, advanced technology 등으로 호칭되는 일군의 새로운 기술의 절대적 level이 현재 어디에 위치해 있는지 확인 조차 하기 어렵고 첨단기술 제품의 성능에 넋을 잃을 지경이 지만 고려청자나 이조백자에 대해서는 현재의 기술을 가지고도 그 재현이 곤란하다. 이와 같이 시차의 이중성 속에서 제품의 부가가치를 높이고 생산성을 올리기 위해서는 가공기술의 고도화를 가하지 않으면 안된다. 어떤 소재를 설계된 모양대로 변화시키는 일련의 과정을 가공이라 한다면 이에는 변형가공(주조, 소성가공), 부가가공(용접), 제거가공(절삭, 연삭)등을 생각할 수 있으며 이들 사이의 가공정도의 개략치는 다음과 같다. (그림.1 가공공정에 따른 가공정도) 공작물에 요구되는 가공정도는 시대의 변천과 더불어 level up되고 이를 위한 기술 개발이 부단히 이어오고 있다. 1960-70 년대의 생산가공 기술은 .mu. m 단위인 $10^{-5}$--$10^{-6}$m의 범위의 가공정도를 생산 line으로 실현하는 것이 중점 개발 목표였다. 그러나, 현재는 $10^{-5}$--$10^{-7}$m를 목표로 한 submicron 가공정도 실용기에 들어서고 있다.

This paper aims to show that cooperative robots, which have only been used in manufacturing sites, are expanding their scope of use in daily living spaces due to the expansion of non-face-to-face services. By combining robots and IoT technologies in terms of diversifying services in daily life and customized service areas, it is expected that the general public will also have easy access to smart technologies, and these technologies will be used in more areas. The robot barista system will provide customers with the services they want, monitoring, maintenance, and management of the system, making this paper convenient for customers, as well as managers who run stores, maintenance and repair, and engineers who design the system. This paper attempts to demonstrate this through a structure called Robopresso.

The present paper examined the stress and ADL (activities of daily living) index in relation to the characteristics of the elderly in nursing homes. For this study, questionnaires were given to 110 seniors in the N-district of Seoul, and S-myeon, Hoengseong-gun, Gangwon Province from May 1 to September 30, 2013. For data analysis, t-test, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSSWIN18.0 program. The analysis of actual proof was made at a significance level of 5 percent. The findings from the analyses were as follows: first, the relocation syndrome into nursing homes has a positive correlation with the stress of deficient family visits in the category of daily stresses; second, depression has a positive correlation with the stresses of deficient private time and space and deficient family visits in the category of daily stresses; third, weight control has a positive correlation only with the stress of deficient private time and space in the category of daily stresses, whereas a nutrition deficiency has positive correlation with the stress of deficient family visits in the category of daily stresses. These findings may serve as ground source data for establishing policies regarding the stresses in relation to the characteristics and ADL index of the elderly in nursing homes.

In this study, we have tried to identify the relationship between the patient's health belief and the implementation of functional movement rehabilitation and ability to perform ADL in stroke patient, and have done this study to use this as evidence in treating stroke patients in clinical trials by providing a basis data of stroke patients' successful rehabilitation program. We targeted stroke patients who were diagnosed with stroke and are hospitalized in D hospital in J City, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea. More over, we distributed a total of 150 questionnaires to patients who understand the purpose of the research and agreed to participate. We were able to collect 132questionnaires at the end. However, 11 had insufficient data so we only analyzed and evaluated 121 of the said questionnaires. We did frequency analysis to understand the general characteristics by using SPSS for Windows(ver.12.0) program and we used Pearson's Correlation Coefficient and regression analysis to know the relationship between the patient's health beliefs and the implementation of rehabilitation and ability to perform ADL in stroke patients. The results of this study shows that patients with higher perceived sensitivity, perceived benefit and perceived severity equates to an implementation of the rehabilitation better, however patients with a lower perceived disability equates an implementation of functional movement rehabilitation better than those with a higher perceived disability.

The rapid increase of the elderly living alone is a critical issue in worldwide as it leads to a rapid increase of a social support costs (e.g., medical expenses) for the elderly. In early stages of dementia, the activities of daily living (ADL) including self-care tasks can be affected by abnormal patterns or behaviors and used as an evidence for the early diagnosis. However, extracting activities using non-intrusive approach is still quite challenging and the existing methods are not fully visualized to understand the behavior pattern or routine. To address these issues, this research suggests a model to extract the activities from coarse-grained data (spatio-temporal data log) and visualize the behavioral context information. Our approach shows the process of extracting and visualizing the subject's spaceactivity map presenting the context of each activity (time, room, duration, sequence, frequency). This research contributes to show a possibility of detecting subject's activities and behavioral patterns using coarse-grained data (limited to spatio-temporal information) with little infringement of personal privacy.

This paper introduces a ZigBee network-based four-lane lap time measurement system that can be set up for short-distance races. The instructions "Ready-Set-Go" can be announced at the entry point node when the start button is pushed, and foot switches installed at the exit point node can be stepped on by the runner for lap time measurement of the race. The start and exit point nodes are connected to a ZigBee network to communicate time synchronization packets. The exit point node maintains synchronized local time within 10 ms at most. The system does not need expensive measurement equipment and provides lap time recording in a more convenient manner than conventional lap time measurement methods.

The rapidly aging population is also increasing the number of dementia patients rapidly. Studies have revealed the early signs of slowing progress. Therefore, dementia patient safety, continuous care, daily living, and health care are becoming more important. In this paper, a smart home care system using smart phones and Bluetooth communication technology was used to monitor the state of dementia patients of based on the results of grading dementia, health care of the dementia patients at home and provide for the safety of the system using motion sensors and gas leak sensors to respond to various emergency situations, such as fire, gas leak protection, and loitering. Using this system, the patient can stay longer in their home due to the nature of Korean culture before admission, while reducing the family's economical, physical and psychological burden and allowing the consultation of specialists through the system by building a database of individuals and providing professional service and specialty care referral agencies through the link.

It has been 1 year since Sewol Ferry disaster occurred in the Gwanmaedo sea of Jindo, Jeollanamdo, on Apr. 16, 2014. The Sewol Ferry Disaster which took 304 lives and had some victims still missed has become the largest tragic accident in Korea since 2010. Although one year has passed since the disaster, there is no psychological communication research on the trauma of the victims' families. This study first investigated the actual state of the Sewol Ferry victims' parents suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after their losses of children by the disaster. This study revealed that the victims' families suffer from physical and psychological the PTSD but neglect treatment. The PTSD still influences their daily life. It was observed that the victims' families have a lot of difficulties with interpersonal relationship, relationship with co-workers, residence, values, and other kinds of daily life. Given that the victims' families have a great deal of PTSD after the disaster, the academic circle needs to make discussions of the issue actively in order to heal the pains of the Sewol Ferry victims' families who are unattended in our society.

In this study, a method for estimating the amount of urination for men, was suggested and its performance was evaluated. This study is a preliminary one for the development of a health monitoring system that needs un-constraining, non-intrusive and long-term measurements in daily life. To estimate the amount of urination, a wide weighing plate with load cell was built and the difference in a man's weights between before and after urination was measured while he was standing on the plate. The results showed that the amount of urination can be estimated with the measured weight difference under the condition of mild movements. The largest measurement error of the suggested method was 40g, which means that this method can be applied to health monitoring in daily life. It is expected that the results of this study will be the basis for developing practical un-constraining and non-intrusive health monitoring system for daily use at home.
