This study intended to develop a motorcycle safe vest that can be prepared against accidents by mounting a smart module (with built-in sensor) on the safe vest in order to emphasize safety among functional aspects of the motorcycle clothing. The research method investigated professional books, prior research, and Internet data to examine the characteristics of motorcycle wear and the theoretical examination of smart wear, and analyzed the functional characteristics of the design by reviewing smart jacket and vest design cases for motorcycles currently on the market. As a results of study an interface device sensor, which contains a sensor with IMU(Intertial Measurement Unit) and CPU(Central Processing Unit), was inserted into a motorcycle top in order to draw attention to the safety of motorcycle riders. The IMU sensor attached to the vest detected the tilting motion of the rider to either left or right side to obtain data on left or right direction, sudden stop, and so forth and displayed left or right turn signal and sudden stop sign on the backplate (back) through the LED module. As for charging the device to operate LEDs, a generator, which is designed to convert the heat energy in the exhaust into electric energy, was used to efficiently self-produce the power required to operate LEDs of the top while riding.

대표적인 수면장애로 수면 무호흡증과 코골이가 있다. 하지만 기존에는 수면장애 측정과 진단만 이루어지고 그 원인을 파악하는 연구는 미비하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이를 보완하기 위해 멀티센서를 기반으로 한 수면장애 개선 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 시스템을 설계하기 위해 전체 시스템의 구성을 파악하고 데이터의 흐름을 설계하였다. 설계한 시스템을 구현하기 위해 사용자 인터페이스 및 모바일 애플리케이션은 안드로이드 기반으로 구현하였다. 본 논문에서 설계 및 구현한 시스템의 결과의 정확도를 테스트하기 위해 테스트 시나리오를 작성하였다. 테스트 시나리오에 따른 수면 장애 요인 값을 변화시키며 추론 결과의 정확도를 테스트 한 결과 제안한 수면장애 개선 시스템이 정확하게 동작함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, modeling of a gate/body-tied (GBT) PMOSFET photodetector with built-in transfer gate is performed. It can control the photocurrent with a high-sensitivity. The GBT photodetector is a hybrid device consisted of a MOSFET, a lateral BJT, and a vertical BJT. This device allows for amplifying the photocurrent gain by $10^3$ due to the GBT structure. However, the operating parameters of this photodetector, including its photocurrent and transfer characteristics, were not known because modeling has not yet been performed. The sophisticated model of GBT photodetector using a process simulator is not compatible with circuit simulator. For this reason, we have performed SPICE modeling of the photodetector with reduced complexity using Cadence's Spectre program. The proposed modeling has been demonstrated by measuring fabricated chip by using 0.35 im 2-poly 4-metal standard CMOS technology.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) gradually becomes a technique for ensuring the health and safety of civil infrastructures and is also an important approach for the research of the damage accumulation and disaster evolving characteristics of civil infrastructures. It is attracting prodigious research interests and the active development interests of scientists and engineers because a great number of civil infrastructures are planned and built every year in mainland China. In a SHM system the sheer number of accompanying wires, fiber optic cables, and other physical transmission medium is usually prohibitive, particularly for such structures as offshore platforms and long-span structures. Fortunately, with recent advances in technologies in sensing, wireless communication, and micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS), wireless sensor technique has been developing rapidly and is being used gradually in the SHM of civil engineering structures. In this paper, some recent advances in the research, development, and implementation of wireless sensors for the SHM of civil infrastructures in mainland China, especially in Dalian University of Technology (DUT) and Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), are introduced. Firstly, a kind of wireless digital acceleration sensors for structural global monitoring is designed and validated in an offshore structure model. Secondly, wireless inclination sensor systems based on Frequency-hopping techniques are developed and applied successfully to swing monitoring of large-scale hook structures. Thirdly, wireless acquisition systems integrating with different sensing materials, such as Polyvinylidene Fluoride(PVDF), strain gauge, piezoresistive stress/strain sensors fabricated by using the nickel powder-filled cement-based composite, are proposed for structural local monitoring, and validating the characteristics of the above materials. Finally, solutions to the key problem of finite energy for wireless sensors networks are discussed, with future works also being introduced, for example, the wireless sensor networks powered by corrosion signal for corrosion monitoring and rapid diagnosis for large structures.

Most diagnosis methods for servo valves requires installing spool displacement sensor or flow sensor as well as pressure sensor. The measurement of flow is hard to implement and many kinds of servovalves or proportional direction valves do not have a built-in spool displacement sensor. In this study, static performances of servovalve or proportional-direction-valve are studied theoretically and a diagnosis technique, which uses only load pressure and input current signal, is assessed. An experimental setup was made based upon a personal computer and the LabVIEW graphical language. A series of diagnosis tests were performed and the analysis results showed it possible to measure the pressure gain, hysteresis and null bias in a relatively simple methodology.

스마트폰을 이용한 실내 위치 추적 기술에 관한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히 스마트폰의 이동 경로를 지도에 표시하기 위해서는 대부분의 스마트폰에 내장되어 있는 지자기 센서를 이용하여 방위각을 추정해야 하는데, 주변의 쇠구조물에 의한 자기장의 왜곡과 스마트폰의 기울어짐 때문에 방위각 추정 오차가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 정지 상태에서의 지자기 센서의 보정 방법과 스마트폰의 기울어짐에 대한 보정 방법을 제시한다. 또한 스마트폰에서 자북과 도북의 차이에 의한 방위각 오차를 보정하는 방법을 제안한다.

4차 산업혁명에 있어 무선 센서 네트워크(Wireless Sensor Networks; WSNs)는 사람의 개입 없이 다양한 환경에서 데이터를 수집하고 분석하는 중요한 요소이다. 센서 네트워크는 토폴로지와 라우팅 프로토콜에 따라 네트워크 수명에 크게 영향을 받는데, 그중 라우팅 프로토콜은 일단 한 번 구축되면 운영 중에 변경하기 위해 많은 자원(에너지 등)이 소모된다. 네트워크 구축 전 동작과 성능을 예측하기 위해 다양한 시뮬레이터들이 제안되었음에도 불구하고, 라우팅 프로토콜들에 초점을 맞춰 시뮬레이션할 수 있는 도구는 부족한 현실이다. 본 논문은 DEVS(discrete event system specification)를 사용하여 다수의 라우팅 프로토콜을 시뮬레이션할 수 있는 WSN 모델을 제안한다. DEVS 기반의 제안 모델은 코디네이터 모델에 라우팅 프로토콜의 알고리즘을 구현하게 되면 모델의 구조와 변경 없이 다양한 상황에 대하여 시뮬레이션할 수 있다. 제안 모델의 정상적인 동작 확인을 위해 WSN의 대표적인 프로토콜인 LEACH와 Dijkstra를 사용하여 보고서 전달 수와 네트워크의 에너지 소모를 비교하였다. 그 결과 제안 모델은 두 라우팅 프로토콜에서 정상적으로 동작함을 확인하였다.

A number of plating companies have been exposed to the risk of fire due to unexpected temperature increasing of water or other reasons in a plating bath. Since the companies are not able to forecast the unexpected temperature increasing of plating bath and most of raw materials in the bath have low ignition temperature, it is easy to be exposed to the risk of fire. Thus, in previous study, we tried to monitor and notice the dangerous change of temperature of water immediately to prevent the risk of fire from plating process. However, unfortunately previous studies were not able to shut out the fundamental cause of fire since bath temperature sensor can detect air temperature when the level sensor was malfunctioned. In this paper we developed the Teflon heater which contains a built in temperature sensor and improved plating equipment system. Teflon heater is improved using Pt $100{\Omega}$ sensor which can detect until $600^{\circ}C$. When the bath temperature sensor detects over $60^{\circ}C$ or the Teflon heater sensor detects over $240^{\circ}C$ they temporarily shut down the heater to control temperature. Also relay completely shuts down main power when detects instant temperature is detected over 5% of $240^{\circ}C$ by the heater sensor to prevent teflon melting down and fire spreads. Developed plating equipment system can monitor a real time temperature in the teflon tube and bath water. Therefore we think the proposed plating equipment can eliminate the possibility of fire in plating processes fundamentally.

This paper introduces development of location estimation and navigation system of mobile robots using USN and LEGO Mindstorms NXT. Developed system includes location estimation, location and navigation information display and navigation control parts. It used ZigBee based USN which was built with CC2431 chip to locate blind node and implemented fuzzy model to improve ability of calculation of distances from reference nodes and location of mobile robots. This paper proposed combination method of location estimation using USN and encoder which is built in motors of mobile robots. Experimental results showed proposed method is superior to the method which used USN only in location estimation and navigating robots. Developed system can locate current position of mobile robots and monitor information from sensor nodes like temperature, humidity and send control signal to mobile robot to move.
