This paper presents the results of study for improving the reliability of quadrotor attitude control by applying a multi-sensor along with a data fusion algorithm. First, a mathematical model of the quadrotor dynamics was developed. Then, using the quadrotor mathematical model, simulations were performed using the improved reliability multi-sensor data as the inputs. From the simulation results, we designed a Gimbal-equipped quadrotor system. With the quadrotor in a hover state, we performed experiments according to the angle change of the user's specifications. We then calculated the attitude control data from the actual experimental data. Furthermore, with additional simulations, we verified the performance of the designed quadrotor attitude control system with multiple sensors.

TIn this paper, Hemiplegic patients have gait characteristics different from normal persons. This paper presents a posture measuring and display system reflecting their characteristics. Patients wear 3 sensor modules on thigh, calf and foot. To enhance measuring precision of each sensor module, 3D accelerometer and 3D gyroscope are combined. Gait posture is displayed in 3D by modeling thigh, calf and foot as connected 3D objects based on data of the sensor modules. For convenience in inspecting unusual gait posture of hemiplegic patients, any view angle of the 3D display can be selected. In addition, the current gait phase of RLA(Rancho Los Amigos) gait cycle is determined and displayed in real-time by utilizing the posture information, The phase sequence and duration of each phase can be used in evaluating gait quality of patients.

Recently Recently, the incidence of spinal diseases due to poor posture among students and office workers is increasing, and various studies have been conducted to help maintain correct posture. In previous studies, a membrane sensor or a pressure sensor was placed on the seat cushion to see the weight bias, or a sensor that restrained the user was attached to measure the position change. In our previous study, we developed a sensor device which can be easily attached to the body with an adhesive gel sheet and that measures and outputs the user's posture and body position in real time, but it has a limitation in the accuracy of the sensor value. In this study, a study was conducted to improve the performance of the position conversion sensor device and quantitatively evaluate the accuracy of the angle conversion measurement value, and a high accuracy with 2.53% of error rate was confirmed. In future research, it is considered that additional research targeting actual users is needed by diversifying posture correction training contents with multimedia elements added.

Hand gesture recognition is an essential technology for the people who have difficulties using spoken language to communicate. Electromyogram (EMG), which is often utilized for hand gesture recognition, is expected to have difficulties in hand gesture recognition because its people's movements varies depending on prior postures, but the study on this subject is rare. In this study, we conducted tests to confirm if the prior postures affect on the accuracy of gesture recognition. Data were recorded from 20 subjects with different prior postures. We achieved average accuracies of 89.6% and 52.65% when the prior states between the training and test data were unique and different, respectively. The accuracy was increased when both prior states were considered, which confirmed the need to consider a variety of prior states in hand gesture recognition with EMG.

In this work, the effect of attitude angle variation on drag coefficients of hemisphere in a Mach 6 flow has been investigated. Experiments were conducted in a shock tunnel and a free-falling technique was used to minimize flow disturbance by a sting. For attitude and drag coefficient measurements of a free-falling hemisphere, a free-falling technique based on a releasing mechanism with a stair-typed module and an electromagnet was developed. A shadowgraph technique was used for flow visualization using a high-speed camera.

We have developed an attitude sensing S/W system, one of modules of Mission Analysis System(MAS), which simulates attitude sensing data as almost the same as the real sensor of a satellite in orbit. When attitude elements($alpha,delta$) of a satellite and positions of Earth, Moon, and Sun are given, the S/W system calculates look angles and dihedral angles of each celestial bodies relative to the rotations axis of the satellite. It consists of two sub-modules : One is ephemeris service module which consider the perturbations of four planets(Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) for positions of Sun and Moon and 4 $\times$4 earth gravitational potential terms for a satellite's position. The other is attitude simulation module which generates attitude sensing data. Varying the rotational axis of a satellite and it's orbital elements, we simulated the generating attitude sensing data with this S/W system and discussed their results.

우수한 용접부 품질 때문에 TIG를 이용한 오비탈 용접은 파이프 용접에 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 루트갭이 없고 루트페이스가 큰 맞대기 오비탈 용접의 위보기 및 경사상진자세에서는 오목한 이면비드가 형성되기 쉽지만, 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위한 연구는 희박한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 위보기 및 경사상진자세에서 볼록한 이면비드의 형성을 연구하기위해서 용융지의 제어 방법을 적극적으로 검토하였다. 4mm 두께의 SS400 시편을 위보기 및 경사상진자세에서 각각 Bead-on-plate 용접하고, 이 때 비드성형기의 사용에 따른 비드 형상 변화를 관찰하였다. 텅스텐 전극과 비드 성형기간의 거리(Tip To Former Distance, 이하 TTFD)를 4.5mm에서 7.5mm로 1mm단위로 변경시켜 실험하였으며, TTFD가 증가할수록 위보기 및 경사상진자세에서 이면비드 높이가 감소하였으며 표면비드의 처짐이 증가하였다.

본 논문에서는 항공기 비행 자세를 직관적으로 이해하고 동작의 원리를 시각화 할 수 있는 비행 자세 시뮬레이터를 구현하였다. 항적 정보의 변화에 따라 6축 모션 플랫폼을 동작시키고, 자이로 센서로 부터 전달 받은 비행 자세를 시뮬레이터에 전달하여 시스템을 구성한다. 항공기의 자세를 분석하기 위하여 자이로 센서와 가속도 센서를 같이 사용하는데 자이로 센서는 적분과정의 누적오차가 발생하고 가속도 센서는 짧은 순간의 진동에 따른 노이즈가 심하여 상보 필터를 이용한 보정작업을 하였다. 산출된 센서 정보를 이용하여 6축 모터에 전달할 각도를 계산하여 모션 플랫폼을 동작시키게 되며 시각화 결과는 OpenGL을 이용하여 구현하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후, 항공관련 학생들의 교육 기자재로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

이족 로봇(A biped robot)의 안정된 보행과 움직임을 구현하기 위해서는 정밀 센서의 접목이 필수 사항이다. 센서의 정보를 종합한 다음 보행 및 움직임에 적용함으로써 로봇은 향상된 독립성과 자율성을 가지게 되고 그로 인해 지능형 로봇에 한층 더 접근할 수 있게된다. 본 논문에서는 이족로봇의 안정된 보행을 위해 기본이 되는 자세 기울어짐을 측정할 수 있는 가속도 센서를 이용한 이족로봇의 제어 방법을 다루고자 한다. 본 논문의 로봇은 소형 R/C servo motor를 사용하여 설계, 제작 하였으며, 하드웨어 시스템은 메인 CPU로 인텔사의 80C296SA50을 사용, 가속도 측정센서로는 Analog Device 사의 Accelerometer ADXL210를 사용하였다. 이와 같이 가속도 센서를 사용한 시스템은 로봇의 자세를 측정, 판단을 가능케 하여 실시간으로 로봇의 자세를 안정되게 보정 할 수 있어 외부의 변화되는 힘에 자율적으로 대처할 수 있다. 이 때문에 더욱 안정된 지능형 이족로봇을 구현할 수 있다.
