본 연구의 목적은 DGPS와 자이로 센서를 장착하여 무인으로 콤바인을 직선주행, 선회 및 곡선주행, 직진주행 중 1 m 오프셋(offset) 주행시켰을 때, 무인 자율주행의 성능을 분석하고 개선하는데 있다. 콤바인의 무인자율주행 시스템은 콤바인의 현재위치를 인식하고, 주행하고 있는 콤바인의 주행방향을 감지하여 미리 설정된 경로를 따라 자율적으로 주행하며, 주행 중에 장애물이 검출되면 정지할 수 있도록 개발하였다. 콤바인의 무인 자율주행시스템은 DGPS의 입력 신호로부터 콤바인의 현재위치를 결정하고, 자이로 센서의 입력신호로부터 주행방향을 알 수 있다. 또한 장애물의 감지를 위한 초음파 센서, 콤바인의 주행방향을 조정하는 유압 작동부, 좌.우의 조향레버를 조정하는 서보모터 시스템, 마이크로 컴퓨터로 구성된 제어기와 입출력 인터페이스로 구성되어 있다. 콤바인 자율주행시스템의 프로그램은 DGPS 신호, 자이로 센서 등을 수신하는 수신 프로그램, DGPS 신호등으로부터 관련 변수들을 분석하여 콤바인의 조향수준을 결정하고, 유압실린더 등을 제어하는 제어 프로그램과 콤바인의 이동경로를 저장하는 저장 프로그램으로 구성되어 있다. 콤바인의 무인주행 실험결과 RMS 오차는 50 m 직선주행에서 7.52 cm, 20 m 직선주행 후 1 m 오프셋 된 30 m의 직선주행에서 21.85 cm, 20 m 직선주행 후 90$^{\circ}$선회하여 25 m 직선주행에서 7.55 cm, 반지름 23 m의 원주 사분면 곡선주행에서는 25.98 cm로 각각 나타났다. 소 구획의 포장에서 벼는 가로 방향으로 25~30 cm, 세로 방향으로 15~20 cm의 간격으로 심어져 있다. DGPS 신호에 의한 위치 결정을 할 때 자체 오차 10 cm를 고려하여도 콤바인이 직선구간 및 선회구간을 주행하며 수확작업이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 곡선구간에서는 최대오차가 65.5 cm로 매우 크게 나타나, 콤바인을 무인 자율주행으로 수확하기에는 어려움이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 실제 포장은 이론적인 완전한 직선보다는 작은 굴곡이 있는 곡선의 형태가 이루어져 있으므로 주행 오차를 감소하기 위해서는 기계시각을 이용하면 보다 정밀한 조향을 이룰 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 포장에서 DGPS 신호, 자이로 센서 등을 이용한 콤바인의 무인주행 장치는 무인 수확작업을 위한 가능성을 보여주었고, 일부의 센서의 기능을 개선하면 만족한 성능을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study aims to establish a foundation for autonomous driving on campus and communication of abundant university information in the HCI environment in a VR environment where college freshmen can freely travel around campus facilities. The purpose of this study is to develop a three-dimensional VR-style campus tour system to establish a media environment to provide abundant university information guidance services to freshmen in non-face-to-face situations. This study designed a three-dimensional virtual reality campus tour system to solve the problem of discontinuity in which VR360 filming space does not lead to space like reality, and to solve many problems of expertise in VR technology by constructing an integrated production environment of tour system. We aim to solve the problem of inefficiency, which requires a large amount of momentum in virtual space, by constructing a GUI that utilizes the motion of the field of view focus. The campus environment was designed as a three-dimensional virtual reality using a three-dimensional graphic design. In non-face-to-face situations, college freshmen freely transformed the HMD VR device, smartphone, FPS operation mode of the gyroscope sensor.

More affordable and available cutting-edge technologies (e.g., wireless vehicle communication) are regarded as a possible alternative to the fixed infrastructure-based traffic information system requiring the expensive infrastructure investments and mostly implemented in the uninterrupted freeway network with limited spatial system expansion. This paper develops an advanced decentralized traveler information System (ATIS) using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication system whose performance (drivers' travel time savings) are enhanced by three complementary functions (autonomous automatic incident detection algorithm, reliable sample size function, and driver behavior model) and evaluates it in the typical $6{\times}6$ urban grid network with non-recurrent traffic state (traffic incident) with the varying key parameters (traffic flow, communication radio range, and penetration ratio), employing the off-the-shelf microscopic simulation model (VISSIM) under the ideal vehicle communication environment. Simulation outputs indicate that as the three key parameters are increased more participating vehicles are involved for traffic data propagation in the less communication groups at the faster data dissemination speed. Also, participating vehicles saved their travel time by dynamically updating the up-to-date traffic states and searching for the new route. Focusing on the travel time difference of (instant) re-routing vehicles, lower traffic flow cases saved more time than higher traffic flow ones. This is because a relatively small number of vehicles in 300vph case re-route during the most system-efficient time period (the early time of the traffic incident) but more vehicles in 514vph case re-route during less system-efficient time period, even after the incident is resolved. Also, normally re-routings on the network-entering links saved more travel time than any other places inside the network except the case where the direct effect of traffic incident triggers vehicle re-routings during the effective incident time period and the location and direction of the incident link determines the spatial distribution of re-routing vehicles.

This note provides technical guide on three issues associated with establishing and automatically running regional ocean forecasting systems: (1) a strategy for continuous production of hourly-interval three-day ocean forecast data, (2) the daily download of ocean and atmospheric forecasting data (i.e., HYCOM and NOAA/NCEP GFS data), which are provided by outside institutions and used as initial condition, surface forcing, and boundary data for regional ocean models, and (3) error notifications to numerical model managers through the Short Message Service (SMS). Guidance on dealing with these three issues is illustrated via solutions implemented by the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency, since in embarking on this project we found that this procedural information was not readily available elsewhere. This technical guide is based on our experiences and lessons learned during the process of establishing and operating regional ocean forecasting systems for the East Sea and the Yellow and East China Seas over the 5 year period of 2012-2016. The fundamental approach and techniques outlined in this guide are of use to anyone wanting to establish an automatic regional and coastal ocean forecasting system.

At present, megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) is the only method used to correct the position of tomotherapy patients. MVCT produces extra radiation, in addition to the radiation used for treatment, and repositioning also takes up much of the total treatment time. To address these issues, we suggest the use of a video image-guided setup (VIGS) system for correcting the position of tomotherapy patients. We developed an in-house program to correct the exact position of patients using two orthogonal images obtained from two video cameras installed at $90^{\circ}$ and fastened inside the tomotherapy gantry. The system is programmed to make automatic registration possible with the use of edge detection of the user-defined region of interest (ROI). A head-and-neck patient is then simulated using a humanoid phantom. After taking the computed tomography (CT) image, tomotherapy planning is performed. To mimic a clinical treatment course, we used an immobilization device to position the phantom on the tomotherapy couch and, using MVCT, corrected its position to match the one captured when the treatment was planned. Video images of the corrected position were used as reference images for the VIGS system. First, the position was repeatedly corrected 10 times using MVCT, and based on the saved reference video image, the patient position was then corrected 10 times using the VIGS method. Thereafter, the results of the two correction methods were compared. The results demonstrated that patient positioning using a video-imaging method ($41.7{\pm}11.2$ seconds) significantly reduces the overall time of the MVCT method ($420{\pm}6$ seconds) (p<0.05). However, there was no meaningful difference in accuracy between the two methods (x=0.11 mm, y=0.27 mm, z=0.58 mm, p>0.05). Because VIGS provides a more accurate result and reduces the required time, compared with the MVCT method, it is expected to manage the overall tomotherapy treatment process more efficiently.
