Every object emits some energy from its surface. The emission energy forms surface heat distribution which we can capture by using an infrared thermal imager. The infrared thermal image may include valuable information regarding to the subsurface anomaly of the object. Since a thermal image reflects surface clutter and subsurface anomaly, we have difficulty in extracting the information on the subsurface anomaly only with thermal images taken under a wavelength. Thus, we use visible wavelength images of the object surface to remove exterior clutter. We, therefore in this paper, visualize the infrared image for overlaying it with a visible wavelength image. First, we make an interpolated image from two ordinary images taken from both sides of an infrared sensor. Next, we overlay the intermediate image with an infrared image taken from the infrared camera. The technique suggested in this paper can be utilized for analyzing the infrared images on non-destructive inspection against disaster and for safety.

This paper proposes a method to improve the performance of low cost infrared distance sensor. Infrared distance sensor measures the intensity of reflected light and converts it into distance. The proposed method improves the sensing distance of the sensor and makes it operate robustly in various lighting environments. This is achieved by extracting the characteristic curves of the sensor and applying the HDR (High Dynamic Range) technique. The output value of the sensor was obtained by varying the intensity of the infrared input and the exposure time, and the characteristic curve of the sensor was extracted from it.

In this paper, we design and implement an advanced cattle shed management system using a infrared wireless sensor nodes and surveillance camera. Our system provides three main capabilities, such as 24-hours cattle shed monitoring, trespassing detection, automatic control of cattle shed. For this, our system can monitor cattle shed as well as the condition of cows/bulls for 24 hours per day by using surveillance cameras. Our system also can detect intruders inside the cattle shed by using infrared wireless sensor nodes. In addition, our system can control the power of electric equipments in the cattle shed by using a power controller. Finally, we combine the three components into a system by using a smartphone application program and verify the effectiveness of our system by a testbed.

This paper presents development of meander monitoring system base reliable detection at conveyer belt used for materials transport line of steel company. Conventional detection method is losed the confidence, because of the place with bad surroundings of measurement so much that materials production line are completely exposed to dust, moisture and vibration. For the solution of this problem, we developed infrared meander detection system using the infrared sensor array and one chip microprocessor which is available for bad surroundings and inexpensive. The reliability of the system was estimated by experiment.

적외선 센서는 빛의 유무에 관계없이 물체 또는 인체에서 발산하는 적외선을 감지한다. 이러한 센서를 전자 및 디스플레이 시스템과 연동하면 열영상 시스템이 되는데, 이는 전방 감시, 플랜트 감시, 보안, 방범용으로 많이 사용되며, 특히 자동차 야간 운전자 보조용으로 사용되어 최첨단, 고부가가치를 지니고 있는 핵심부품이다. 비냉각형 적외선 센서인 마이크로볼로미터는 상온에서 작동하므로 극저온 Cooler가 불필요하며, 무게와 부피가 작아 각종 시스템에 부착가능하다. 특히 볼로미터형 적외선 센서는 용량이 적은 TE cooler로 상온으로 안정화를 시키며, 진공으로 유지되는 금속 또는 세라믹 패키지를 사용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 마이크로 볼로미터용 진공패키지를 제작하여 패키지 조립 및 측정기술에 대해 조사하였다. 패키지는 금속재질인 kovar를 사용하여 제작되었고, 내부에 TE Cooler와 장수명 진공유지를 위한 getter, 그리고 온도센서 및 볼로미터 센서 칩을 장착하여 조립하였다. 패키지 Cap ass'y와 base envelop의 솔더링 공정은 약 $200^{\circ}C$에서 수행하였으며, evacuation system을 이용하여 5일 동안 패키지 bake-out 공정을 수행하였다. 이 후 getter를 활성화시키고, seal-off 공정으로 진공 기밀을 유지하였다. 진공 패키지의 기밀성은 $6{\times}10^{-9}\;std.cm^3/sec$로 기밀성을 유지하였다. 볼로미터 센서의 반응도는 $10^2\;V/W$ 이상을 나타내었으며, 탐지도는 $2{\times}10^8\;cm-Hz^{1/2}/W$를 나타내었다.

In this paper, we studied the voice recognition system kiosk for convenience, thinking that the kiosk widely used in modern society should compensate for the inconvenience of using by the visually impaired. Using ultrasonic sensor and PIR(Passive Infrared), it recognizes the visually impaired within the range of 80cm-40cm, introduces the kiosk through the MP3 module and induces them to come closer. Also, when the visually impaired within 40cm is recognized, the product description and order are guided through the MP3 module. A recording-based data voice recognition system and a kiosk that outputs desired items through servo motors were studied. A kiosk for the convenience of the visually impaired was manufactured through operation and optimization experiments of PIR, ultrasonic, voice recognition, and shock sensor for the manufactured voice recognition kiosk. Finally, it was confirmed that security can be strengthened by using shock sensors and emergency bells to enhance security.

Infrared sensors with one or two dimensional arrays are usually bonded via indium bumps to Si CMOS read out circuits. Therefore, both sensing of infrared beams and processing of signals are performed at the focal plane. This gives us a benefit of reducing noise as well as size of infrared detectors. We have developed a way of boding indium bumps with keeping sensor and ROIC parallel to each other. The flip chip bonder developed has a very simple structure and is easy to operate. So we expect that reliability will be improved very much.
