In order to obtain the principal design data for developing the Autonomous Robot Vehicle(ARV), Sensitivity analysis on the trajectory error and friction force with respect to the dynamic parameters is performed. In the straight motion, the trajectory error has been proved to be much affected by the mass variance of the ARV while the lateral friction force is much affected by the location of the mass center. In the curved motion, the effect of mass and moment of inertia is considered importantly. In addition, the lateral offset gives more effect than the geometric dimension of the ARV on the trajectory errors and friction force.

We propose a new technique for real-time controller design of a autonomous cruise mobile robot with three drive wheels. The proposed control scheme uses a Gaussian function as a unit function in the fuzzy neural network, and a back propagation algorithm to train the fuzzy neural network controller in the framework of the specialized learning architecture. It is proposed a learning controller consisting of two neural network-fuzzy based on independent reasoning and a connection net with fixed weights to simply the neural networks-fuzzy. The control performance of the proposed controller is illustrated by performing the computer simulation for trajectory tracking of the speed and azimuth of a autonomous cruise mobile robot driven by three independent wheels.

This paper proposes a method of a touch-based remote control and sensor information acquisition of a mobile robot using a smart phone. An application in a smart phone processes the acquired sensor information and conducts autonomous navigation. By touching the screen of the smart phone, a series of points obtained from designated curve traces are analyzed and provide control of a robot. This study develops a mobile application that acquires and handles data from a mobile robot and sends appropriate action commands through remote control using Bluetooth communication with a smart phone. The utility and performance of the proposed control scheme have been successfully verified through experimental tasks using an actual smart phone and a mobile robot.

최근 텔레매틱스 기술은 운전자와 차량, 차량과 외부의 정보들을 이용하여 다른 산업과의 융합이 급속히 진행되고 있으며, 다양한 서비스에 대한 요구 역시 점차 증가하는 추세이다. 최근에는 차량의 위치 및 궤적 데이터 정보 서비스뿐만 아니라 차량을 통한 차별화된 고객별 영업, 마케팅 및 서비스 제공에 대한 VRM(Vehicle Relationship Management)이 대두되고 있다. VRM은 차량의 주행 정보, 과거 이동정보, 운전자의 정보 등과 같은 차량에 관련된 다양한 정보에서 특정 규칙과 패턴을 추출한 후에 그것에 알맞게 영업, 서비스 생산, 마케팅 전략을 수립 및 적용할 수 있도록 해주는 것으로 CRM과 유사하다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 CRM의 성공 요인에 대한 선행 연구를 검토해 VRM의 전략적 관점에서 프로세스에 준거하여 고객자산가치관리와 VRM의 핵심기능인 고객자산가치 관리역량을 통해 차량의 주행정보, 차량 정검 정보, 운전자의 정보 등과 같은 차량에 관련된 모든 정보를 VRM 프레임워크가 갖추어야 할 요소를 도출하고 차량 기반 고객관계 프레임워크 모델을 제시해보고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose a mobile robot navigation algorithm using data fusion of a monocular camera and ultrasonic sensors. Threshold values for binary image processing are generated by a fuzzy inference method using image data and data of ultrasonic sensors. Threshold value variations improve obstacle detection for mobile robot to move to the goal under poor illumination environments. Obstacles detected by data fusion of camera and ultrasonic sensors are expressed on the grid map and avoided using the circular planning algorithm. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by experiments on the Pioneer 2-DX mobile robot in the indoor room with poor lights and a narrow corridor.

An innovative feature of this study is to propose a methodology for evaluating safety performance in real time based on vehicle trajectory data extracted from video images. The essence of evaluating safety performance is to capture unsafe car-following and lane-changing events generated by individual vehicles traveling within video surveillance area. The proposed methodology derived three indices including real-time safety index(RSI) based on the concept of safe stopping distance, time-to-collision(TTC), and the collision energy based on the conservation of momentum. It is believed that outcomes would be greatly utilized in developing a new generation of video images processing(VIP) based traffic detection systems capable of producing safety performance measurements. Relevant technical challenges for such detection systems are also discussed.

Traffic management centers (TMC) collect real-time traffic data from the field and have powerful databases for analysing, recording, and archiving the data. Recent advanced sensor and communication technologies have been widely applied to intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Regarding sensors, various in-vehicle sensors, in addition to global positioning system (GPS) receiver, are capable of providing high resolution data representing vehicle maneuverings. Regarding communication technologies, advanced wireless communication technologies including vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-vehicle infrastructure (V2I), which are generally referred to as V2X, have been widely used for traffic information and operations (references). The V2X environment considers the transportation system as a network in which each element, such as the vehicles, infrastructure, and drivers, communicates and reacts systematically to acquire information without any time and/or place restrictions. This study is motivated by needs of exploiting aforementioned cutting-edge technologies for developing smarter transportation services. The proposed system has been implemented in the field and discussed in this study. The proposed system is expected to be used effectively to support the development of various traffic information control strategies for the purpose of enhancing traffic safety on highways.

Bikes have recently emerged as an alternative to carbon neutrality. To understand the demand for public bikes, we endeavored to estimate travel frequency of public bike by considering the intermediate stops. Using the GPS trajectory data of 'Ttareungyi', a public bike service in Seoul, we identified a stay point and estimated travel frequency reflecting population, land use, and physical characteristics. Application of map matching and a stay point detection algorithm revealed that stay point appeared in about 12.1% of the total trips. Compared to a trip without stay point, the trip with stay point has a longer average travel distance and travel time and a higher occurrence rate during off-peak hours. According to visualization analysis, the stay points are mainly found in parks, leisure facilities, and business facilities. To consider the stay point, the unit of analysis was set as a hexagonal grid rather than the existing rental station base. Travel frequency considering the stay point were analyzed using the Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial (ZINB) model. Results of our analysis revealed that the travel frequency were higher in bike infrastructure where the safety of bike users was secured, such as 'Bikepath' and 'Bike and pedestrian path'. Also, public bikes play a role as first & last mile means of access to public transportation. The measure of travel frequency was also observed to increase in life and employment centers. Considering the results of this analysis, securing safety facilities and space for users should be given priority when planning any additional expansion of bike infrastructure. Moreover, there is a necessity to establish a plan to supply bike infrastructure facilities linked to public transportation, especially the subway.
