최근 자전거의 활용범위가 출퇴근뿐만 아니라, 친환경 헬스케어 부각으로 자전거 타는 것에 많이 이용되고 있는 실정이다. 근래 몇 년 사이에 정부에서도 자전거 전용도로를 도시외각뿐만 아니라 자전거로 출퇴근 이용자들을 위해 안전하게 운행할 수 있도록 자전거 전용도로를 전국에 확대설치 하여 자전거 보급을 확대 하고 있다. 하지만 현재 국내에 많이 보급되어 있는 자전거는 대부분이 외국에서 반제품이 수입되어 국내에서 완제품으로 조림하여 판매되는 제품들이 주를 이루고 있으며, 자전거 부품 중에도 최근 외국에서 개발이 진행되고 있는 전자변속기 또한 외국의 기술들이 도입되어 제품들이 출시되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 외국의 기술적 우위로 인하여 한국의 자전거 산업발전에 어려움이 많은 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 리니어모터를 이용하여 디지털 전동 변속기를 개발 하여, 변속의 신속성, 정확성을 확보하면서, 동시에 외국의 기술적 장벽을 넘고자 한다. 현행 자전거 뒤 변속기의 정확한 변위위치 확보하기 위하여 자전거 핸들에 장착되어 있는 변속레버를 디지털화 하여, 변속을 제어하게 되면 뒤쪽에 설치되어 있는 리니어모터를 위치 제어함으로써 가이드 샤프트 피치에 의하여 변속위치가 정밀하게 제어 할 수 있는 전동 변속기 제어시스템을 제안하고자 한다.

As part of recent sustainable transport, bike has come into the spotlight as a green transport at close range to link between walking and public transit and also alterative to solve problems of existing vehicle travel. Some arguments on promotion of using bicycles have already been made in Europe, the U.S and other developed countries. To be sure, much has been written extensively in description of utilization of bike oriented by supplier, for examples, Level of Service with bike path, infrastructure such as bicycle racks and lounge etc. Therefore, our study has been differentiated in development of new evaluation model focused on level of bike user's satisfaction, comprehensively considering suitability for bikeway installation, connectivity of the public transportation system and stability in Incheon City. ANP(Analytic Network Process) analysis which is able to allow consideration of the interdependence of criteria has been hired due to multi-collinearity instead of AHP used in multi-criteria decision analysis. Last but not least, we drew bike route on a case-by-case for maintenance and improvement of its facility in Namdong-gu and Bupyeong-gu. To conclude, suggested finding has dem onstrated the validity of evaluation scheme for bikeways which is appropriate for type and purpose and ultimately this can be used to establish policy decision making for improvement of bikeway.

Recently, as more and more cyclists ride bicycles for their health and more people commute by bicycle, the number of cyclists has increased. However, as the number of users increases, many accidents occur, and the handling of bicycle accidents is unstable. It is inadequate to prepare for accidents in other ways except for safety equipment. Therefore, there is a need for a safe and convenient way for modern adults to ride. Unlike other apps, in this study, by adding a safety function, you can shoot a black box while riding, and a function to inform you that it is an accident-prone area is implemented. In addition, a function that can detect an accident using the Android built-in sensor and automatically make emergency contact is added. Cyclists can secure safety and convenience in one app without the need to use additional apps. Furthermore it develops an app system that allows you to talk about riding and share your route through the Riding Community bulletin board.

Bicycle users were surpassed a million recently as bicycle riding will be a key element of daily life. As users increase, we can expect that the user is more exposed to the risk of an unexpected accident. Therefore, we need to establish several preventive measures for a safe riding environment. In this paper, we developed mobile application by using the acquired GPS-based location information that provide safety services for the bike riding as a LBS service. In detail, we have been able to provide a bicycle safety navigation service by using the bluetooth transmission and reception method between Android and Arduino-based devices. As a future work, the safety could be improved if we expand various forms of Arduino sensors. As a result, a service developed in this study will be able to converge ahead to connect into several personalized mobile IoT services.
