최근 개발되고 있는 전자자기 컴퍼스를 이용한 소형어선의 항행자동화시스템을 구축하기 위한 기초 연구로서, 부두에 계류된 선박에서 각종 장비의 가동 시켰을 때 나타나는 컴퍼스 오차 변화를 측정하여 비교 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 목선에서 85kW의 집어등을 점등하였을 때, 조타용 자기컴퍼스는 7$^{\circ}$편서되었고, 전자자기 컴퍼스는 13$^{\circ}$~16$^{\circ}$ 까지 편서되는 것으로 나타났다. 2. FRP 어선에서 13OkW의 집어등을 점등하였을때, 전자자기 컴퍼스는 19$^{\circ}$~23$^{\circ}$ 까지 편동되는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 강선에서 225kW의 전력으로 각종 장비를 가동 시킬 때, 가동전과 비교하여 컴퍼스 오차의 차분은 조타용 자기 컴퍼스에서는 13$^{\circ}$ 편서되고, 전자자기 컴퍼스는 상갑판에서는 68$^{\circ}$ 편서되었고, 선수루 갑판과 조타실 및 컴퍼스갑판에서는 각각 16$^{\circ}$, 32$^{\circ}$, 20$^{\circ}$ 편동되어 나타났다. 4. 소형어선의 항행자동화시스템에 전자자기 컴퍼스를 활용하기 위해서는 선박내에서 사용하는 각종 장비에 의해 발생하는 컴퍼스 오차를 측정하여 적절하게 수정하여 사용해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

Objective: The aim of this study was to develop the adaptive device for severe physical disabilities using smart device in the driving simulator and its performance evaluation. Development of appropriate driving adaptive device for the people with serious physical limitation could contribute to maintain their community mobility. Background: There is lack of adaptive driving devices for the people with disabilities in Korea. However, if smart device systems like iPod and iPhone are used for driving a car, the people with serious physical limitations can improve their community mobility. Method: Both gyroscope and accelerometer from iPod were used to measure the tilted angle of the smart device for driving. Customized Labview program was also used to control three axis motors for steering wheel, accelerator and brake pedals. Thirteen subjects were involved in the experiment for performance evaluation of smart device in simulator. Five subjects had driver licenses. Another four subjects did not have driver licenses. Others were people with disabilities. Results: Average driving score of the normal group with driver license in the simulator increased 46.6% compared with the normal group without driver license and increased 30.4% compared with the disabled group(p<0.01). There was no significant difference in the average driving score between normal group without driver license and disabled group(p>0.05). Conclusion: The normal group with driver license showed significantly higher driving score than other groups. The normal group without driver license and disabled group could improve their driving skills with training in simulator. Application: If follow-up studies would be continued and applied in adapted vehicle for on road environment, many people with more severe disabilities could drive and improve the quality of life.

In this paper, a Smart Home Service Robot, McBot II, which performs mess-cleanup function etc. in house, is designed much more optimally than other service robots. It is newly developed in much more practical system than McBot I which we had developed two years ago. One characteristic attribute of mobile platforms equipped with a set of dependent wheels is their omni- directionality and the ability to realize complex translational and rotational trajectories for agile navigation in door. An accurate coordination of steering angle and spinning rate of each wheel is necessary for a consistent motion. This paper develops trajectory controller of 3-wheels omni-directional mobile robot using fuzzy azimuth estimator. A specialized anthropomorphic robot manipulator which can be attached to the housemaid robot McBot II, is developed in this paper. This built-in type manipulator consists of both arms with 4 DOF (Degree of Freedom) each and both hands with 3 DOF each. The robotic arm is optimally designed to satisfy both the minimum mechanical size and the maximum workspace. Minimum mass and length are required for the built-in cooperated-arms system. But that makes the workspace so small. This paper proposes optimal design method to overcome the problem by using neck joint to move the arms horizontally forward/backward and waist joint to move them vertically up/down. The robotic hand, which has two fingers and a thumb, is also optimally designed in task-based concept. Finally, the good performance of the developed McBot II is confirmed through live tests of the mess-cleanup task.

디스플레이 기술은 비약적으로 발전되었다. 특히 플렉서블 디스플레이에 대한 연구를 관련 기업들이 앞다투어 진행하고 있다. 현재 시장에는 플렉서블 디스플레이의 초기 단계인 커브드 디스플레이를 사용한 스마트폰, TV 등이 출시되어 있고, 데스크탑용 커브드 모니터 역시 최근에 출시되어 사무용 또는 엔터테인먼트용으로 이용되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 엔터테인먼트용으로 50" 멀티 모니터를 사용시 모니터의 곡률이 사용 자세 제어에 미치는 영향에 관한 것이다. 실험에는 두 종류의 곡률 (평면, 곡률반경 600mm)이 사용되었다. 총 10명의 근골격계질환이 없고, 양안 시력이 모두 0.8이상이고, 색맹 또는 색약이 아닌 평균 (SD) 20.9 (1.5)세의 대학생들이 실험에 참여하였다. 피험자들은 일반적인 VDT 환경의 실험실에서 각 곡률당 30분씩 핸들과 페달을 사용해 운전 게임을 하였다. 각 피험자가 운전 게임을 하는 동안 의자 위에 놓여진 압력 매트를 통해 이들의 COP (Center of Pressure)가 측정되었다. 자세 제어 분석을 위하여, 총 4개의 COP 측정치, Mean Velocity, Median Power Frequency, Root-Mean-Square (RMS) Distance, 그리고 95% Confidence Ellipse Area를 사용하였다. 실험 결과, 곡면대비 평면 디스플레이에서 전후 방향 (Anterior-Posterior; AP)의 RMS distance값이 더 큰 경향을 보였다. 이 결과를 통해 평면 디스플레이를 사용하여 운전 게임을 하는 동안 피험자의 전후 방향으로 몸을 더 많이 움직였다고 할 수 있다. 이는 평면 디스플레이가 곡면 디스플레이보다 화면의 가로방향으로 시거리 차이가 더 크기 때문에, 초점의 이동시간이 더 길어지는 것과 관련이 있을 수 있다. 또한, 평면 디스플레이 대비 곡면 디스플레이에서 더 높은 몰입감을 느끼거나, 더 집중할 수 있는 것과 관련이 있을 수 있다. 디스플레이 곡률에 따른 이런 행동상의 차이가 근골격계 질환에 미치는 영향에 대한 추가 연구가 필요하다.

Power tiller is a major unit of agricultural machinery being used on farms in Korea. About 180.000 units are introduced by 1977 and the demand for power tiller is continuously increasing as the farm mechanization progress. Major farming operations done by power tiller are the tillage, pumping, spraying, threshing, and hauling by exchanging the corresponding implements. In addition to their use on a relatively mild slope ground at present, it is also expected that many of power tillers could be operated on much inclined land to be developed by upland enlargement programmed. Therefore, research should be undertaken to solve many problems related to an effective untilization of power tillers on slope ground. The major objective of this study was to find out the travelling and tractive characteristics of power tillers being operated on general slope ground.In order to find out the critical travelling velocity and stability limit of slope ground for the side sliding and the dynamic side overturn of the tiller and tiller-trailer system, the mathematical model was developed based on a simplified physical model. The results analyzed through the model may be summarized as follows; (1) In case of no collision with an obstacle on ground, the equation of the dynamic side overturn developed was: $$\sum_n^{i=1}W_ia_s(cos\alpha cos\phi-{\frac {C_1V^2sin\phi}{gRcos\beta})-I_{AB}\frac {v^2}{Rr}}=0$$ In case of collision with an obstacle on ground, the equation was: $$\sum_n^{i=1}W_ia_s\{cos\alpha(1-sin\phi_1)-{\frac {C_1V^2sin\phi}{gRcos\beta}\}-\frac {1}{2}I_{TP} \( {\frac {2kV_2} {d_1+d_2}\)-I_{AB}{\frac{V^2}{Rr}} \( \frac {\pi}{2}-\frac {\pi}{180}\phi_2 \} = 0 $$ (2) As the angle of steering direction was increased, the critical travelling veloc\ulcornerities of side sliding and dynamic side overturn were decreased. (3) The critical travelling velocity was influenced by both the side slope angle .and the direct angle. In case of no collision with an obstacle, the critical velocity $V_c$ was 2.76-4.83m/sec at $\alpha=0^\circ$, $\beta=20^\circ$ ; and in case of collision with an obstacle, the critical velocity $V_{cc}$ was 1.39-1.5m/sec at $\alpha=0^\circ$, $\beta=20^\circ$ (4) In case of no collision with an obstacle, the dynamic side overturn was stimu\ulcornerlated by the carrying load but in case of collision with an obstacle, the danger of the dynamic side overturn was decreased by the carrying load. (5) When the system travels downward with the first set of high speed the limit {)f slope angle of side sliding was $\beta=5^\circ-10^\circ$ and when travels upward with the first set of high speed, the limit of angle of side sliding was $\beta=10^\circ-17.4^\circ$ (6) In case of running downward with the first set of high speed and collision with an obstacle, the limit of slope angle of the dynamic side overturn was = $12^\circ-17^\circ$ and in case of running upward with the first set of high speed and collision <>f upper wheels with an obstacle, the limit of slope angle of dynamic side overturn collision of upper wheels against an obstacle was $\beta=22^\circ-33^\circ$ at $\alpha=0^\circ -17.4^\circ$, respectively. (7) In case of running up and downward with the first set of high speed and no collision with an obstacle, the limit of slope angle of dynamic side overturn was $\beta=30^\circ-35^\circ$ (8) When the power tiller without implement attached travels up and down on the general slope ground with first set of high speed, the limit of slope angle of dynamic side overturn was $\beta=32^\circ-39^\circ$ in case of no collision with an obstacle, and $\beta=11^\circ-22^\circ$ in case of collision with an obstacle, respectively.
