In the outdoor advertising and industrial sites, are trying to implement the LED electric bulletin board system that is based on image processing in order to express a variety of intention in real time. Recently, in various field, rather than simple text representation, the importance of intuitive communication using images is increasing. Thus, instead of outputting the simple input information for communication, a system that can output a real-time information being sought. Therefore, the system is directed to overcoming by converting the problem of mapping an image on a variety of conventional LED display that can not be output images, the possible image output formats. Using an LED of low power, it has developed to output the efficient messages and images within a limited resources. This paper provides a system capable of managing the LED display on the wireless network. Atmega2560, Wi-Fi module, using the server and Android applications client, rather than printing a text only, it is a system to reduce the load generated image output character output in to the conversion process as can be managed by the server.

In this paper, we implemented the sign board system that displays user's image, user's sentence, the information from DARC an[1 information based position by GPS module for vehicle. The existing sign board is displaying only user's image and sentence. Or other existing sign board is displaying the information via CDMA network. However, our system is also able to display the user's message like other system and gain the information more cheap by DARC. This system consists of 6 parts. The DARC control part classes the DARC information - news, weather, stock and time. The GPS control part gains moment and item to display with calculating the information of global position, direction, speed and satellite. The LED control part has two buffers to store and handle the image. The buffers help the system display various effected images on LED board. An external memory card includes the location based data, the option file and the displayed data files. The data files are stored by FAT 16 with the folder structure on external memory card. The USB controls the communication with PC. PC programs can control and monitor this system. This system is using G72l voice file format, for casting the information. This system was established at the vehicle and we monitored this system. The system displayed the DARC data , user's data and the location based data on the LED board, successfully.

The provision of traffic information plays an important role in increasing social benefit not only by saving travel time for individuals but also by improving the efficiency of road operation. VMS(Variable Message Sign) helps on-wheel drivers easily understand the road situation, and also provides real-time traffic information to people on the streets. However, it has not been sufficiently studied on how traffic information based on VMS influences on the drivers' selection of route. This study investigated how drivers use VMS traffic information and how they are satisfied with it. Then, the model of drivers' route selection was specified with the types of traffic information and the expected travel time to examine the influence on the selection of drivers' route. The model was estimated and analyzed in three types according to the condition of detour roads, and the rate of route change and the degree of sensitivity was calculated from the estimation. The results of analysis are as follows. the $1^{st}$ type model showed the 10% of route change for the travel time saving of 5minutes, and the 81.6% of route change for the travel time saving of 20minutes. The $2^{nd}$ type led to the range of route change from 14.2% to 92.7% over the 5 through 20 minutes of travel time saving. The $3^{rd}$ model resulted in the 99.1% of route change. The sensitivity of route change showed the highest for the travel time saving of 11 minutes with the $1^{st}$ type model, 9 minutes with the $2^{nd}$ type model, and 5 minutes with the $3^{rd}$ type model respectively.

Real-time oceanographic information system was developed using platforms of aquaculture farms to examine causes of mass mortality of hatchery fishes, and to reduce the damage of mass mortality which has been occurred frequently off coast by abnormal change of ocean conditions. The system had the advantages of direct data distribution to fishermen at the farm and instant maintenance of equipments due to easy access to the farms and residents at the farms in comparison with offshore mooring buoy system. To avoid discontinued measurement of the system, repairs caused by malfunction of equipments, bimonthly preventive maintenances and daily monitoring of measured data were systematized. Confidence intervals calculated by a statistical method using accumulated data were applied to data management. Such activities could minimize discontinuance of measurement and keep information more trustful. In addition, the system has various ways of data distribution. Through homepage and e-mail in the internet, information was provided to public. Display units which were connected to equipments at the farm gave the measured data directly to fishermen, which guided them to run their farm scientifically. Finally large display unit was installed at a fish market and showed the measured data at the nearest station with tide and weather information. Proper region for aquaculture and wintering region were studied using temperature data obtained by the system in 2006. The system will contribute to reduce economic damage of coastal fishery and to understand coastal marine environment.

In this paper, we propose a study on the development of deep learning structure for defective pixel detection of next-generation smart LED display board using imaging device. In this research, a technique utilizing imaging devices and deep learning is introduced to automatically detect defects in outdoor LED billboards. Through this approach, the effective management of LED billboards and the resolution of various errors and issues are aimed. The research process consists of three stages. Firstly, the planarized image data of the billboard is processed through calibration to completely remove the background and undergo necessary preprocessing to generate a training dataset. Secondly, the generated dataset is employed to train an object recognition network. This network is composed of a Backbone and a Head. The Backbone employs CSP-Darknet to extract feature maps, while the Head utilizes extracted feature maps as the basis for object detection. Throughout this process, the network is adjusted to align the Confidence score and Intersection over Union (IoU) error, sustaining continuous learning. In the third stage, the created model is employed to automatically detect defective pixels on actual outdoor LED billboards. The proposed method, applied in this paper, yielded results from accredited measurement experiments that achieved 100% detection of defective pixels on real LED billboards. This confirms the improved efficiency in managing and maintaining LED billboards. Such research findings are anticipated to bring about a revolutionary advancement in the management of LED billboards.

A visual prosthesis for the blind based upon electrical stimulation of the visual cortex requires the development of an array of electrodes. To establish design specifications for such an electrode array, we have conducted psychophysical experiments with normally sighted subjects wearing a portable 'phosphene' simulator. The simulator consists of a small video camera, a monitor masked by an opaque perforated film, and optical lenses. The visual angle subtended by the masked monitor is $1.7^{\circ}$ or less. We measured visual acuity and reading rate as a function of the number of pixels and their spacing. Our results indicate that a phosphene image produced by 600 electrodes implanted in a $1\;cm^2$, area near the foveal projection on the visual cortex should provide a limited but useful visual sense for the profoundly blind.

안개가 교통사고를 유발시키는 원인을 살펴보면 운전자의 시거와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 짙은 안개가 발생하게 되면 돌발상황이 발생하였을 때 도로를 주행하던 차량이 안전하게 정지하기 위해서 필요한 최소 정지거리가 증가하게 되나 안개로 인한 시정이 나빠지게 되어서 사고발생확률이 높은 것이다. 또한 안전한 시거가 확보되지 않기 때문에 단독사고 발생 후 뒤따르던 차량이 전방을 확인하지 못한 상황에서 연쇄 충돌하게 되어 사고가 대형화된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 IT기술인 RFID와 USN을 이용하여 안개로 인한 시정거리에 따라 도로에 있는 과속카메라가 도로주행 한계속도를 자기 스스로 판단하여 자동조절하게 만들고 변경된 한계속도를 그 도로를 이용하는 차량운전자 휴대폰에 문자로 전송해주고 도로전광판에서도 정확하게 주행속도정보를 볼 수 있게 한다. 그리하여 도로주행 한계속도를 어기는 차량에는 범칙금을 부과하게 만든다. 본 연구를 통해 안개에 대한 교통사고의 위험을 줄이고 사회적 경제적으로 이익이 되도록 하기위해 기상상태 변화에 따른 USN 기반의 도로주행 한계속도 지능적 조정 관리시스템을 제안하고자 한다.
