As information technology fusion is accelerated, the researches to improve the quality and productivity of crops inside a plant factory actively progress. Advanced growth environment management technology that can provide thermal environment and air flow suited to the growth of crops and considering the characteristics inside a facility is necessary to maximize productivity inside a plant factory. Currently running plant factories are designed to rely on experience or personal judgment; hence, design and operation technology specific to plant factories are not established, inherently producing problems such as uneven crop production due to the deviation of temperature and air flow and additional increases in energy consumption after prolonged cultivation. The optimization process has to be set up in advance for the arrangement of air flow devices and operation technology using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) during the design stage of a facility for plant factories to resolve the problems. In this study, the optimum arrangement and air flow of air circulation fans were investigated to save energy while minimizing temperature deviation at each point inside a plant factory using CFD. The condition for simulation was categorized into a total of 12 types according to installation location, quantity, and air flow changes in air circulation fans. Also, the variables of boundary conditions for simulation were set in the same level. The analysis results for each case showed that an average temperature of 296.33K matching with a set temperature and average air flow velocity of 0.51m/s suiting plant growth were well-maintained under Case 4 condition wherein two sets of air circulation fans were installed at the upper part of plant cultivation beds. Further, control of air circulation fan set under Case D yielded the most excellent results from Case D-3 conditions wherein air velocity at the outlet was adjusted to 2.9m/s.

스테레오 물체추적 시스템은 스테레오 비젼 시스템의 입체 영상에서 나타나는 스테레오 시차를 없애 주는 주시각 제어와 이동 물체를 영상의 중앙에 위치시키기 위한 팬/틸트 제어를 통해 이동 물체를 추적하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 스테레오 물체추적 시스템의 새로운 접근방법으로 적응적 물체 추적이 가능한 광 JTC를 이용해 이동 물체를 추적하는 스테레오 물체추적 시뮬레이터를 구현하였다. 이를 이용하여 여러 종류의 입력 영상에 따른 광 JTC 의 추적 결과를 분석하여 실험 결과를 예측할 수 있었으며, 이를 광학적으로 구현할 경우 배경 잡음에 강하고 실 시간적 물체 추적이 가능한 스테레오 물체추적 시스템을 구현할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

국내의 축사는 윈치커튼의 위치를 조절하여 줌으로써 내부의 기류를 교환하는 개방형 축사가 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 개방형 축사의 환기는 외기풍속의 영향에의해 내부 기류의 흐름이 형성되어 바람이 없는 고온기에는 내부의 기류혼합이 잘 되지 않기 때문에 고온으로 인한 내부의 환경이 열악하다. 따라서 자연환기 축사에 배기팬 또는 입기팬을 설치하는 조합형 환기 축사가 주를 이를 것으로 판단된다. (중략)

주방환기의 계획에 있어서 조리시 발생하는 오염물질을 적절히 배기시키는 것이 가장 중요하다. 기구의 배치와 발열량을 평가하고 후드의 위치와 종류 그리고 덕트직경과 경로를 결정하며 적정한 풍량을 제거하기 위한 배기팬을 선정한다. 그러나 일반적인 실내 공기밸런스 계획을 시행함에도 불구하고 배기된 체적에 해당하는 풍량을 보충 공급하는 방식에 대한 고려는 현재 상대적으로 부족한 상태이다.

This research was carried out to test and analyze capacity of the long distance sprayer fan in large livestock farmhouses. Long distance sprayer was manufactured to be able to spray a lot of water, which was a solvent for agricultural chemicals and black dye with the maximum spraying distance of 140 m and the effective spraying distance of 100 m. The spraying quantity and the distance were measured the intensity values of images within A4 papers, which absorbed the agricultural chemicals by spraying by binary image processing. These A4 papers were fixed upon the height of 1 m from soil ground at regular 10 m interval. After the A4 papers were collected and analyzed the intensity values of gray level. Gray level was ranged from 0 to 255, where 0 was black and 255 was white. A4 paper was fallen down from the stick at 10 m distance, because there were too large amount of sprayed water with black dye. Also, the paper showed low gray level at distance 30 m because of dropping lots of black water. The intensity value of gray level was showed almost less than 200 on the A4 papers between the distance 20 m and 100 m, which meant equality of spraying quantity. Additionally, it was possible to spay agricultural chemicals of until 180 m. Throughout this research, long distance sprayer could apply for preventing hoof-and-mouth disease in large livestock farmhouses.

This paper focused on the development of sports robot that detects a human player and shots a serve ball automatically. When robot technologies apply to the sports machine, the domain problems occurs such as outdoor environments and playing condition to recognize the visual and the vocal modalities. Gaussian mixture model and Kalman filter are used to detect the player's position in the left, right, and depth direction and to avoid the noises caused by the player's posture variation around the net. The sports robot is designed by the pan-tilt structure to shot a serve ball by pneumatic control under the multi layered software architecture. Finally, the proposed tracking and the machine performance are discussed by experimental results.

The research and development for autonomous mobile robots has widely been reported. This paper describes a fuzzy logic based visual servoing system for an autonomous mobile robot. An existing system always needs to keep a moving object in overall image. This makes difficult to move the autonomous mobile robot spontaneously. In this paper we first explain an autonomous mobile robot and fuzzy logic system. And then we design a fuzzy logic based visual servoing system. We extract some features of the object from an overall image and then design a fuzzy logic system for controlling the visual servoing system to an exact position. We here introduce a shooting robot that can track an object and hit it. We show that the proposed system presents a desirable performance by a computer simulation and some experiments.

The mock-ups of ventilation system, which has been widely adopted for the bathroom with the area of 100 $m^2$ apartment housing, were established and tested to design mechanical ventilation for apartment housing bathroom where air supply exhaust are relatively important. These ventilation mock-ups were capable of controlling intake and exhaust, which has the size of supply openings as 40cm${\times}$1cm, 40cm${\times}$3cm, 40cm${\times}$5cm. They were established at five locations, spaced 40cm from each other at a height of 25cm from the floor. The exhaust fans were located at four corners and center of the ceiling. The results this ventilation effect measurement by different condition are showing that when the size of air supply is bigger and the location is lower, the effect of ventilation was relatively higher. In addition, as the distance between exhaust fan and air supply was farther, the ventilation effect were getting highly efficient.

In this study, jet fans are installed with 4 cases in the straight long tunnel; inlet-side setup, middle-side setup, outlet-side setup, and dispersion setup. A bus is selected as fired car, of which fire size is 20MW. And fired car locates at 100m, 700m, 1500m position from tunnel inlet, respectively. FLUENT, commercial finite-volume code, is used to analyze the performance. The velocity profile, $CO_2$ concentration, temperature distribution are examined for analysis. Performance of smoke control is compared by the backlayering length. Consequently, inlet-side setup of jet fans is a little more efficient than other cases considering the fire occurrence frequency in tunnel.

In this study, the ventilation characteristics is investigated numerically of the longitudinal ventilation method in the curved long road tunnel. Numerical work has been conducted for the jet fan location by utilizing the commercial finite-volume code, FLUENT. Configuration of the tunnel is three-lane, 1600 m long, $120m^2$ in area, 3000 m curvature radius. The velocity profile, distribution of mono-dioxide carbon and flow rate of air are examined in the tunnel. Through the analysis, it is found that the difference of ventilation flow rate Is a little by the jet fan location, but tunnel outlet setup (CASEIII) of jet fans is the most efficient concerned with CO concentration.
