현재에는 과거와 달리 표면상 비춰지는 외모의 중요성이 강조되어 치아 교정을 해서 미적 욕구를 충족시키려는 사람들이 증가하고 있다. 특히나 치아를 교정할 때 사용되는 치아교정용 브라켓은 부착되는 위치가 치아 앞면이기 때문에 미관상의 중요성은 치아교정장치 중 가장 크다. 이러한 이유 때문에 미적인 부분을 고려하여 치아색과 유사한 브라켓이 개발되었는데, 이 브라켓은 레진 브라켓이다. 이는 치아 교정에 도움을 주면서 심미성이 우수한 장점이 있지만 음식을 섭취할 때 음식의 색소에 의해 브라켓의 색 변화가 일어난다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 사람들이 자주 섭취하는 음식이나 음료에 치아교정용 브라켓을 착색시켜 색이 변하는 정도의 차이를 컬러센서를 이용해 측정하였다. 이렇게 측정된 브라켓의 RGB 값은 객관적이고 정량적인 값을 나타낼 수 있다. 이는 브라켓의 변색 뿐만 아니라 치아 미백 치료에도 적용되어 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

The researches on the Internet based tole-operation have received increased attention for the past few years. In this paper, we implement the Internet based tele-operating system. In order to transmit robustly the surroundings and control information of the robot, we make a data as a packet type. Also in order to transmit a very large image data, we use PEG compressive algorithm. The central problem in the Internet based tele-operation is the data transmission latency or data-loss. For this specific problem, we introduce an autonomous mobile robot with a 2-layer fuzzy controller. Also, we implement the color detection system and the robot can perceive the object. We verify the efficacy of the 2-layer fuzzy controller by applying it to a robot that is equipped with various input sensors. Because the 2-layer fuzzy controller can control robustly the robot with various inputs and outputs and the cost of control is low, we hope it will be applied to various sectors.

The conventional educational robots, which are commonly industrial robots or toy robots, use text-based programming to teach the students. Therefore, students have difficulty in studying robotics due to the difficulties of text based language. The developed robot in this study have a camera, which have the color tracking function, and it has various sensors and actuators. It supports the open hardware and uses graphic language based programming. The developed educational robot is programmed by Scratch, which uses graphic modular language. We also present a curriculum, which is based upon the developed robot and Scratch. We applied the robot and curriculum to the primary school students. We obtained satisfactory results comparing it with the conventional robot education. Furthermore, the imagination and execution ability of students showed enhancement in learning robotics. Thus, this fact means the validity and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Real-time remote monitoring system has an important value in many surveillance situations. It allows someone to be informed of what is happening in his monitoring locations. Kinect v2 is a new kind of camera which gives computers eyes and can generate different data such as color and depth images, audio input and skeletal data. In this paper, using Kinect v2 sensor with its depth image, we present a monitoring system in a space covered by Kinect. Therefore, based on space covered by Kinect camera, we define a target area to monitor using depth range by setting minimum and maximum distances. With computer vision library (Emgu CV), if there is an object tracked in the target space, kinect camera captures the whole image color and sends it in database and user gets at the same time a notification on his mobile device wherever he is with internet access.

In this article, we suggest a new method for measuring an aerosol's extinction coefficient using a commercial camera. For a given image, we choose three pixel-points that are imaged for the same kinds of objects located in similar directions. We suggest and calculate aerosol extinction coefficients from these RGB gray levels and the different distances of the three objects. To compare our measurement results, we also measure extinction coefficients using lidar. Finally, we find that there are meaningful and sensible correlations between these two measurements, with a correlation coefficient of 0.86. We measure the aerosol extinction coefficient at three different RGB wavelengths using the same method. From these aerosol extinction coefficients at three different wavelengths, we find that the Angstrom exponent ranges from 0.7 to 1.6 over a full daytime period. We believe that these Angstrom exponents can give important information about the size of the fine particles.

DMX512 protocol is a typical protocol which controls LED lighting system. It has a strong feature and can be used to a lot of lighting system. But LED control system with cable has a few problem because they have a lot of control cables. It is very difficult to set up the complex lighting. Furthermore if it is set up it is not easy to keep and recover the system from the out of order. So it is required Wireless Lighting Control System. This paper describes the proposal, design, and implementation of a novel method which can provide versatile light effects with the increased capability of the mobility and the number of universes for Wireless Lighting system. And then we implement experiment environment to control indoor lighting system controled by ZigBee and WLAN converter not having complicating control line. Data frames are transferred to DMX512 device by encapsulation and decapsulation to control color LED. In the same time give the method to solve the data bottleneck problem which can be comes out because of speed difference between Heterogeneous network and measure performance of control system.

This paper proposes a novel framework for image fusion of satellite imagery to enhance spatial resolution of the image via structure-texture decomposition. The resolution of the satellite imagery depends on the sensors, for example, panchromatic images have high spatial resolution but only a single gray band whereas multi-spectral images have low spatial resolution but multiple bands. To enhance the spatial resolution of low-resolution images, such as multi-spectral or infrared images, the proposed framework combines the structures from the low-resolution image and the textures from the high-resolution image. To improve the spatial quality of structural edges, the structure image from the low-resolution image is guided filtered with the structure image from the high-resolution image as the guidance image. The combination step is performed by pixel-wise addition of the filtered structure image and the texture image. Quantitative and qualitative evaluation demonstrate the proposed method preserves spectral and spatial fidelity of input images.

In general, in the fields of computer vision, robotics, and augmented reality, the importance of 3D space and 3D object detection and recognition technology has emerged. In particular, since it is possible to acquire RGB images and depth images in real time through an image sensor using Microsoft Kinect method, many changes have been made to object detection, tracking and recognition studies. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the quality of 3D reconstructed images by processing images acquired through a depth-based (RGB-Depth) camera on a multi-view camera system. In this paper, a method of removing noise outside an object by applying a mask acquired from a color image and a method of applying a combined filtering operation to obtain the difference in depth information between pixels inside the object is proposed. Through each experiment result, it was confirmed that the proposed method can effectively remove noise and improve the quality of 3D reconstructed image.

Pregnant women's psychological health affects the health of the fetus. Therefore, health care for pregnant women is essential for a healthy fetus. One of the symptoms of pregnancy among many pregnant women is the depression of emotional ups and downs. One way to relieve this depression is to use light therapy and color therapy by using lighting. Adjust the color temperature of the light so that it affects the emotions through color. For example, ceiling lights in car dealerships are set up like a sun-light, or low color temperature are used to create a comfortable mood in facilities like spas. In this paper, we use image sensors to identify the psychological state and change the color temperature of the lighting in real time. The study was conducted to relieve postpartum depression by using the psychological effects of pregnant women with easily purchased lighting devices.

This study is aimed at suggesting information about technical choices for designing LED camping lights based on emotional lighting contents of integrated IOT and design areas which take a central role in creation and knowledge based industries and the procedure for materializing them. 'i-Light,' a portable LED camping light, is 'connected lighting' connecting men, space and emotion and a smart camping light based on IOT and emotional lighting contents. 'i-Light' has two functions. One is about lighting for adjusting color and color temperature naturally and the other is about safety for detecting harmful gases. 'i-Light' also has various emotional functions for experiencing interaction and taste of light. For the purpose, portable LED camping lights were designed, first of all, and then a highly color rendering/full-color lighting module, a smart sensor module and an IOT device platform were developed. In addition, efforts were made to establish detailed data about emotional lighting contents and to develop a Web application based on them. Finally, prototypes of portable LED camping lights were made to get a test bench and usability evaluation from related organizations. According to the results, all of 12 developed emotional lighting contents and three IOT safety sensors were suitable and prototypes were satisfactory. This paper will suggest a direction about actual technical choices for development of contents and products integrating artificial intelligence and big data and about the procedure for materializing them.
