To meet tight tolerance requirements of mass produced shafts which are subcomponents of automobile parts, an automated measuring system has been developed. The system comprises of a non-contact shaft diameter measuring instrument using laser, a feed mechanism of a step motor and ball screw and a personal computer. The system can determine pass-fail of the piece under test and also analyze data for statistical process control.

Nowadays with advancement in technology and aging society, the number of disabled citizens is increasing. The disabled citizens always need a caretaker for daily life routines especially for mobility. In future, the need is considered to increase more. To reduce the burden from the disabled, various devices for healthcare are introduced using computer technology. The power wheelchair is an important and convenient mobility device. The demand of power wheelchair is increasing for assistance in mobility. In this paper we proposed a robotic wheelchair for mobility aid to reduce the burden from the disabled. The main issue in an autonomous wheelchair is the automatic detection and avoidance of obstacles and going to the pre-designated place. The proposed algorithm detects the obstacles and avoids them to drive the wheelchair to the desired place safely. By this way, the disabled will not always have to worry about paying deep attention to the surroundings and his path.

The automatic irrigation system using the stem diameter monitoring and the transpiration model for the determination, respectively, of irrigation timing and amount was designed and evaluated for its applicability in pot and field culture of greenhouse tomato. In the pot culture condition, the yield and quality of greenhouse tomato were improved when irrigation was practiced based on the stem diameter monitoring and the transpiration model as compared to the irrigation practice based on soil moisture monitoring. However, the effects were not significant in the field culture condition.

In this paper, we propose to improve conventional methods, which measure moisture level in the soil and supply proper water by a hand operation. Our system use wireless sensor network between sensor node and host PC. The measurement system measure moisture level by use moisture sensor. The control system control electronic solenoid switch and supply proper water automatically.

This paper suggests a new system based on image-processed information which is designed to control traffic light by measuring two-way traffic at the same time with a surveillance camera. With this system, the existing way of using one camera for one lane or loop coil will be improved to the more effective way of using only one camera to monitor a two-way, 8 lane roads statistically. Car images can be detected clearly even in irregular condition because of the background updating in real time. In addition, more accurate measurement is possible to users by selecting extra attention-needed regions. The automatic traffic light controlling algorithm, suggested in this paper, will prevent users and drivers from wasting their time and energy by controlling the number of traffic in advance.

To prevent accidents near the quay caused by a ship, ports are generally designed and constructed through navigation and berthing safety assessment. However, unpredictable accidents such as ship collisions with the quay or personal accidents caused by ropes still occur sometimes during the ship berthing or mooring process. Automatic mooring systems, which are equipped with an attachment mechanism composed of robotic manipulators and vacuum pads, are designed for rapid and safe mooring of ships. This paper deals with a displacement and velocity measurement system for the automatic mooring device, which is essential for the position and speed control of the vacuum pads. To design a suitable system for an automatic mooring device, we first analyze the sensor's performance and outdoor environmental characteristics. Based on the analysis results, we describe the configuration and design methods of a displacement and velocity measurement system for application in outdoor environments. Additionally, several algorithms for detecting the sensor's state and estimating a ship's velocity are developed. The proposed method is verified through some experiments for displacement and speed measurement targeted at a moving object with constant speed.

In this paper, we propose and implement the automated brightness control system using distance measuring sensor for reducing the power consumption of emotional lighting device. In order to reduce the power consumption of emotional lighting devices which express continuous color changes, the proposed device measures the distance continuously using ultrasonic sensor and by using this, it also performs PWM Dimming control. The lighting device is composed of micro controller, LED driver, ultrasonic sensor, communication module and so on. And the device performs the real time brightness control by adapting the measured distance information from ultrasonic sensor to PWM signals. From this experiment, we implement the active lighting system which minimizes unnecessary power consumption during user's absence by adapting existing energy reducing techniques.

This paper presents development of automatic image quality register optimization system using mobile TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display) driver IC and embedded software. It optimizes automatically gamma adjustment and voltage setting registers in mobile TFT-LCD driver IC to improve gamma correction error, adjusting time, flicker noise and contrast ratio. Developed algorithms and embedded software are generally applicable for most of the TFT-LCD modules. The proposed optimization system contains module-under-test (MUT, TFT-LCD module), control program, multimedia display tester for measuring luminance, flicker noise and contrast ratio, and control board for interface between PC and TFT-LCD module. The control board is designed with DSP and FPGA, and it supports various interfaces such as RGB and CPU.

현대화된 재배법은 작물의 생육을 위해 시설내부의 환경을 제어하고 실시간 센싱 정보를 저장하는 시스템을 구축하고 이를 활용하고 있으나, 작물의 생육·생장에 미치는 직접적인 영향에 대한 생육데이터 취득은 아직까지도 전문 재배사·농민이 수작업을 통해 조사되고 있다. 본 연구는 작물의 생육데이터 자동 취득을 위한 장치를 개발하고 이를 실용화하기 위한 정확도 측정 시험을 진행하였다. 실험을 위한 장치구성은 3D Depth 카메라(Intel D415)와 운용 PC이며 딥러닝 모델을 이용하여 작물의 세부기관을 자동으로 인식하는 모델을 포함한다. 장치는 다양한 재배환경의 작물 생육데이터 취득을 위하여 휴대용, 고정형, 로봇형 3가지 유형으로 개발하였고 측정 정확도 검증은 휴대용 생육측정장치를 활용하여 조사하였다. 이러한 연구를 통해 수작업이 아닌 영상에 의한 생육 데이터수집으로 작물의 생육정보(측정값+이미지)를 확보함으로써 환경데이터와 함께 객관적인 정보에 의한 작물의 생산량, 수확시기 등을 예측하는데 활용될 수 있을것으로 예상된다.
