This paper describes the development of a 3-DOF laparoscopic assistant robot system with motor-controlled bending and zooming mechanisms using the voice command motion control and auto-tracking control. The system is designed with two major criteria: safety and adaptability. To satisfy the safety criteria we designed the robot with optimized range of motion. For adaptability, the robot is designed with compact size to minimize interference with the staffs in the operating room. The required external motions were replaced by the bending mechanism within the abdomen using flexible laparoscope. The zooming of the robot is achieved through in and out motion at the port where the laparoscope is inserted. The robot is attachable to the bedside using a conventional laparoscope holder with multiple DOF joints and is compact enough for hand-carry. The voice-controlled command input and auto-tracking control is expected to enhance the overall performance of the system while reducing the control load imposed on the surgeon during a laparoscopic surgery. The proposed system is expected to have sufficient safety features and an easy-to-use interface to enhance the overall performance of current laparoscopy.

Nowaday the natural ventilation rate decreases because the apartment housing is being air-tight. Therefore, Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and indoor environment grow worse. Especially, Formaldehyde (HCHO), Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) which is emitted from the building materials and coating material etc. occur Sick House Syndrome that cause negative impact on resident's respiratory system and body. Therefore in construction field, it will be a important issues that development of a ventilation system with high effectiveness which can exhaust the contaminant out of the building quickly. In this research we evaluated 'wall attachable duct-less Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) system with air cleaning function'. We executed a synthetic evaluation about indoor air environment under various operating condition installing the system in real scale apartment house that is built in Anyang city. HRV system with air cleaning function showed good performance by removing HCHO, VOCs with less ventilation energy.

This article proposes an ultrahigh frequency band radio frequency identification (RFID) tag antenna for drug runout management that can be used in hospitals. The RFID tag antenna is designed to function as a sensor that alerts drug runout when a drug inside a drip chamber is completely consumed but does not work when a drug remains inside a drop chamber. A previously proposed 915 MHz dipole antenna, is too large to be attached to the drip chamber of a feeding bag. Moreover, the length of the dipole (L) should be increased for conjugate matching with an RFID chip. Therefore, the dipole antenna is downsized so that it can be attached to the drip chamber through a fine meander line structure coupling with a corrugate meander line. A transparent cover is added to enhance the grip force between the designed antenna and the drip chamber and to enable detachment. The dimensions of the completed antenna structure attachable to a drip chamber are 32.59 mm (height) and 13.5 mm (width). The gain reduction due to the decreased antenna length is enhanced. The fabricated antenna shows an average omni-directional read range of 10.65 m on a horizontal plane and has the function of sensing the presence of a drug.

Currently smart textile market is rapidly expanding and the demand is increasing integration of an electronic fiber circuit. The garments are an attractive platform for wearable device. This is one of the integration techniques, which consists of is the selective introduction of conductive yarns into the fabric through knitting, weaving or embroidering. The aim of this work is to develop a golf bend driven prototype design for an attachable Arduino that can be used to assess elbow motion. The process begins with the development of a wearable device technique that uses conductive yarn and flex sensor for measurement of elbow bending movements. Also this paper describes and discusses resistance value of zigzag embroidery of the conductive yarns on the tensile properties of the fabrics. Furthermore, by forming a circuit using an Arduino and flex sensor the prototype was created with an assistance band for golf posture training. This study provides valuable information to those interested in the future directions of the smart fashion industry.

수면 중 돌연사는 급성 심근경색 등의 이유로 노인 뿐 만 아니라 영아나 20~40대와 같은 비교적 젊은 층에서도 종종 발생하고 있다. 수면 중 돌연사는 미리 예측하기 어려우므로 이를 방지하기 위해서는 수면 모니터링이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 별도의 센서 부착 없이도 수면 중 돌연사 감지를 할 수 있는 새로운 비디오 분석 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 비디오 분석 방법에서는 호흡에 의한 미세 움직임을 감지하기 위해 모션 증폭 기법을 적용한다. 모션 증폭을 적용했는데도 프레임 간 차이가 거의 없는 경우, 모션이 존재하지 않아 돌연사 가능성이 있는 것으로 판단한다. 수면 중인 아기를 촬영한 비디오 두 편에 대해 모션 증폭을 적용한 결과, 호흡에 의한 미세 모션을 정확하게 감지하였고, 이는 수면 상태와 돌연사를 구분하는데 유용할 것으로 판단되었다. 제안하는 비디오 분석 방법은 신체에 센서 부착을 필요로 하지 않으므로 아기를 키우는 가정이나 독신 가정에서 편리하게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study designed to develop a mower which can reach to side of a tractor or inclined road side and operate weeding. The prototype consists of 4 parts; the base and turning equipment, the boom, the arm, the weeder. The hydraulic actuators were divided into two operations, weeding and operation of boom and they were controlled by electrical equipment. Weeding was very effective when pressure set up at $15{\ell}/min$ using weeding, as $2.27kg{\cdot}m$, 2,210rpm. Weeding range of flail mower was 1.1 to 2.6m from the center of turning equipment at a flat. In case of disk mower, it was 1.5 to 2m. As a result of operation test, flail mower was appropriate for weeding at fence and short weeds, disk mower was appropriate for long weeds.

In order to reduce lean-time and cost, recently the technology of Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing(PR/M) has been used widely. So various RP/M methods have been developed and these systems commercialized several years ago. The machining process is one of these methods. It also offers advantages such as precision and versatility. But there are some considerations during machining. The most important problem among them is the fixturing. So we have to overcome the limitation because the fixturing time is depend on the complexity of geometry to be machined. In this paper, we have developed the fixturing technique using filling process that can be widely useful for rapid products within a short time. So we have carried out some kinds of rapid products such as plastic knob and metal fan using our fixturing process. In fixturing step, the filling material might chosen a resin or a alloy according to wether the work material is plastic or metal respectively. Also we developed the set-up equipment attachable on the table of the milling machine that provided practicable quality during a series of machining operations, named by two step milling process.

Despite both domestic and overseas markets are depressed due to the global financial crisis - the apparel industry is no exception, the market for the outdoor wears including the hiking ones has been recording a high growth rate, making the outdoor wear a high growth industry. The purpose of this study was to provide some basic data useful to our outdoor businesses to help them respond to consumers' needs in the rapidly growing outdoor markets. For silhouettes, the point was given primarily to the oblique cutting to have it follow the human body curves and thereby, look natural and slim. Another point was given to the color schemes along the cutting lines, so that an effect of optical illusion could be created to make the wears look slim making use of lines and colors. On the other hand, in consideration of the rapidly changing weather conditions during hiking, the details were designed practically by setting appropriate hip lengths, using attachable/detachable hoods as well as applying the Velcro & rubber band-type set-in sleeves for the tail edges. As discussed above, the researcher analyzed the design elements for the outdoor wears and developed some sensuous designs meeting consumers' needs to help our outdoor wear businesses to expand their target base, while awakening them of the importance of the outdoor fashion.
