Various types of SW education are being operated by universities for non-major undergraduates. And most of them focus on educating computational thinking. Following this computing education, there is a need for an educational method that implements and evaluates creative computing outcomes for each student. In this paper, we propose a method to realize SW education based on creative computing artifacts. To do this, we propose an educational method for students to implement digital logic circuit devices creatively and design SW algorithms that implement the functions of their devices. The proposed training method teaches a simple LED logic circuit using an Arduino board as an example. Students creatively design and implement two pairs of two input logic circuit devices, and design algorithms that represent patterns of implemented devices in various forms. And they design the functional extension and extended algorithm using the input device. By applying the proposed method, non-major students can gain the concept and necessity of algorithm design through creative computing artifacts.

기존 신호등은 보행자를 위한 별도의 안전장치가 없다. 이는 어린아이는 물론 성인들까지 차량의 위협으로부터 안전을 보장받을 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 어린이보호구역에서 사고 발생률을 감소시키는 것을 전제로 아두이노 액추에이터와 스위치를 이용한 전자제어 신호등을 적용하고자 한다. 현재의 신호등 시스템은 단순히 시간의 흐름에 따라 보행자 신호등과 차량용 신호등의 led가 자동으로 변화하여 차량과 보행자를 통제한다. 이러한 시스템은 어린아이들의 돌발행동과 운전자의 미숙한 작동으로 인한 사고를 방지하지 못한다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제점들을 개선하기 위해 기존의 신호등 시스템 대신 스위치와 액추에이터, 초음파 센서, 블루투스 모듈을 적용한 어린이용 보호 전자제어 신호등 기술을 제안한다. 기존의 신호등 시스템과는 다르게 보행자의 직접적인 개입을 통해 시스템을 제어하고, 원활한 교통환경을 만들 수 있다.

소방청 국정감사에서 2020년 전국 자동화재속보설비 화재신고 32,764건 가운데 32,685건이 오작동으로 출동해 소방서 출동의 99.8%가 헛걸음이었다. 그리고 화재가 발생할 경우 화재경보장치와 대피경로를 안내하는 비상등이 미흡하고, 화재 연기가 제거되지 않아 대피가 힘들어질 뿐만 아니라 미처 대피 못한 인원을 파악하는 등의 신속한 대처가 힘들다. 본 논문은 화재 상황에서 피해를 최소화하기 위한 '스마트 화재 안전 시스템' 기술을 제안한다. 화재가 발생할 경우, 대피 경로를 안내하는 유도등 작동 및 경보음과 LED의 작동으로 화재발생을 경고하여 신속한 대처를 할 수 있게 도와주고, 문과 창문의 자동 개방 및 환기팬 작동으로 인한 유해가스를 환기시켜 준다. 그리고 스프링클러 작동과 소화제를 자동 분사하여 화재의 번짐 등 2차 피해를 예방하여 준다. 또한, 자동 신고 기능으로 더욱 빠르게 화재를 진압할 수 있게 도와주기 때문에 피해를 최소화할 것이다.

The Internet of Things (IoT) and Visible Light Communication (VLC) is opening up new services in lighting industry by integrating sensory network features in addition to standard illumination functionality. In this progressive developments, the next generation lighting devices for smart homes are capable to sense the environmental conditions and transfer the captured data through lights to gateway controller to access remotely. The smart home environmental sensor information's are few kbps only so VLC systems need to built-in with low rate light connectivity to transfer data to the gateway. To provide error free communication, the quality of a received light signal is important to be considered when designing an VLC receiver. Therefore, this paper proposes the design of robust low rate IoL receiver design using NCP302 voltage detector for micro controller to adapt the IoT/IoL front end module for system integration. To evaluate the proposed system performance, the Arduino UNO based IoT/IoL controller designed with lighting, sensors and lights connectivity interfaces. The experimental result shows that the robust interference rejection is feasible on proposed VOL receiver and possible to have an error-free communication up to 10 kbps at a low SNR using OOK modulation.

The aim of this study is to explores the possibility of applying new aquaponics using guppies, a tropical fish breeding as companion fish at home, different from the aquaponics system using fish species such as loach, carp, and catfish for commercial purposes. To facilitate the application of Aquaponics at home, a system was established by connecting a water tank, water plants, hydroponic pots, plant growth LEDs, and Arduino sensors using Internet of Things(IoT) technology. As a hydroponic crops, lettuce that can be easily obtained and consumed at home was selected. In order to confirm the applicability of aquaponics using tropical fish, the growth rates of hydroponic crops in the same environment were compared as a control. The growth rate of aquaponics crops using tropical fish was about 77.4% of that of hydroponic crops. This will produce the same effect as hydroponic cultivation if conditions correspond with enough fish quantity to feed plant and appropriate pH control for growth are met. It can be seen that, and in the future, it can be used to develop an Aquaphonics standard system applicable at home.

Wearable devices come in a variety of shapes and sizes in numerous fields in numerous fields and are available in various forms. They can be integrated into clothing, gloves, hats, glasses, and bags and used in healthcare, the medical field, and machine interfaces. These devices keep track individuals' biological and behavioral data to help with health communication and are often used for injury prevention. Those with hearing loss or impaired vision find it more difficult to recognize an approaching person or object; these sensing devices are particularly useful for such individuals, as they assist them with injury prevention by alerting them to the presence of people or objects in their immediate vicinity. Despite these obvious preventive benefits to developing Internet of Things based devices for the disabled, the development of these devices has been sluggish thus far. In particular, when compared with people without disabilities, people with hearing impairment have a much higher probability of averting danger when they are able to notice it in advance. However, research and development remain severely underfunded. In this study, we incorporated a wearable detection system, which uses an infrared proximity sensor, into a backpack. This system helps its users recognize when someone is approaching from behind through visual and tactile notification, even if they have difficulty hearing or seeing the objects in their surroundings. Furthermore, this backpack could help prevent accidents for all users, particularly those with visual or hearing impairments.

기존의 전동휠체어를 사용하는 약자 또는 중증 장애인 등 지체(肢體)가 불편한 사람들이 휠체어 사용 시 생기는 문제점을 해소할 목적으로 시작되었다. 이는 전동휠체어가 보행 기구임에도 자동차에 준하는 교통사고에 대해 무방비하게 노출되고, 중증 장애인에 대한 이동권 보장이 아직 미흡하여 생기는 문제이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제로 인한 불편함을 해소하고자 아이트래킹을 이용한 스마트 전동휠체어 기술을 적용하고자 한다. 루게릭병 등으로 인해 지체(肢體)의 움직임에 제한이 있는 사람들에게 보호자가 밀어주는 휠체어에 의존하는 것이 아닌 Eye-Tracker를 이용한 시선 추적(Eye-Tracking) 기술로 휠체어 동작이 가능하다. Web-Cam과 라즈베리 파이를 통해 얻은 전·후·좌·우의 영상정보를 디스플레이 화면에 송출한다. 그 후 Eye-Tracking 기술을 이용해 디스플레이 화면에 표시된 전·후·좌·우 이동에 관한 UI(User Interface)룰 사용자가 송출된 영상을 보면서 눈의 움직임만으로 선택해 휠체어의 방향을 제어한다. 또한 전동휠체어의 조작 실수로 다른 행인 또는 장애물과 충돌하는 문제점을 초음파 센서를 이용하여 일정 거리 내에 사물이나 사람이 있을 경우 디스플레이 화면에 경고표시 및 경고음, 각 초음파 센서 위치에 맞는 LED작동으로 사용자들에게 추돌 위험경고와 함께 장애물의 위치파악이 가능하도록 한다. 따라서 스마트 전동휠체어를 통하여 수동적인 움직임이 아닌 능동적이고, 초음파 센서로 인해 안전한 이동이 가능하게 한다.

This study evaluates a program developed for a high school-university linked class. The program combines maker education and smart clothing technology, which has great potential. First, in the preparation stage, the dyeing design course incorporates the contents of previous studies on smart clothing and maker education. Second, in the development stage, a program was developed to make emotional eco-bags by applying the transfer dyeing technique using transfer paper for inkjet printers and smart clothing technology using conductivity thread and LED bulbs. Third, in the implementation stage, the class was offered to 17 high school students who want to major in clothing and textiles. Lastly, the class was evaluated. The program had a 4.95 satisfaction level as measures on a five-point scale. Furthermore, this paper suggested an advanced program with Lilypad Arduino. In conclusion, through this study, it was confirmed that the emotional eco-bag development program applied with conductive yarn and transfer dye could more easily produce smart clothing technology, thereby expanding the thinking of high school students regarding the clothing major.
