In this Paper, the resistance performances of twin hull forms, which are simplified as two-dimensional wedge shape, are experimentally investigated in low and middle speed ranges to find out the effect of distance between two hulls and fore-body shape for the future hull form development of catamaran type sweeping vessel. The model tests are performed for seven different cases for three models in the circulating water channel(CWC) of Inha Technical College. The free surface flows are observed together to investigate the relation between resistance performance and free surface characteristics. A conceptual design for the modification of bow hull form is presented and the efficiency is discussed.

The recent trend in home network system includes intelligent home environments that remote monitoring and control service is achieved without restrictions by device types, time, and place. Also the use of a vacuum robot in homes is gradually generalized on account of the convenience of the use. In this paper, we proposed and realized new home-monitoring system with the employment of an self-movement robot as one trial for realizing an intelligent home under home network environment. The proposed system can freely monitor every where in home, because the system effectively overcame the surveillance limitations of the existing monitoring system by attaching a Wireless Router and WebCam to a commercial vacuum robot. The outdoor users of this system can readily monitor any place which they want to supervise by controlling a vacuum robot with mobile telecommunication devices such as PDA. The wireless router installed with Linux operation system "OpenWrt" made it possible for the system users to transmit images and to control a vacuum robot with RS-232 communication.

Recently, many cleaning robots have been made with various algorithms for efficient cleaning. One of them is a DmaxCoverage algorithm which efficiently clean for the situation when the robot has a time limit. This algorithm uses Rectangle Tiling method for finding the biggest rectangle that doesn't have any obstacle. When the robot uses grid map, Rectangle Tiling method can find the optimal value. Rectangle Tiling method is to find all of the rectangles in the grid map. But when the grid map is big, it has a problem that spends a lot of times because of the large numbers of rectangles. In this paper, we propose Four Direction Rectangle Scanning(FDRS) method that has similar accuracy but faster than Rectangle Tiling method. FDRS method is not to find all of the rectangle, but to search the obstacle's all directions. We will show the FDRS method's performance by comparing of FDRS and Rectangle Tiling methods.

The disadvantage of the general robot cleaner is that it works only on the designated route, so it is impossible to clean the place outside the designated route. Therefore, in this study, the direction control methodology for searching the place other than the designated route based on the finger recognition technology was studied to compensate for the shortcomings of the existing cleaner. Raspberry Pi was used as the main controller and Open CV program was used to recognize the number of fingers. To verify the validity of the proposed methodology, a finger recognition algorithm was implemented using Python language, and as a result of adopting the Logitech C922, the success rate was 100% at 90cm and 70% at 110cm, respectively.

Air ducts installed for ventilation inside buildings accumulate contaminants during their service life. Robots are installed to clean the air duct at low cost, but they are still not fully automated and depend on manpower. In this study, an intersection detection algorithm for autonomous driving was applied to an air duct cleaning robot. Autonomous driving of the robot was achieved by calculating the distance and angle between the extracted point and the center point through the intersection detection algorithm from the camera image mounted on the robot. The training data consisted of CAD images of the duct interior as well as the cross-point coordinates and angles between the two boundary lines. The deep learning-based CNN model was applied as a detection algorithm. For training, the cross-point coordinates were obtained from CAD images. The accuracy was determined based on the differences in the actual and predicted areas and distances. A cleaning robot prototype was designed, consisting of a frame, a Raspberry Pi computer, a control unit and a drive unit. The algorithm was validated by video imagery of the robot in operation. The algorithm can be applied to vehicles operating in similar environments.
