This study was carried out to develop a microcomputer-based data acquisition system for engine performance test. A low-cost data acquisition system was developed utilizing an "APPLE II PLUS" microcomputer. The developed system consists of microcomputer, RPM counter included frequency-to-voltage converter, preamplifier for two load cells and 8-bit analog-to-digital converter with 16 chnnels. The system simultaneously measures engine speed by means of photointerrupter, torque and fuel consumption by means of load cells with variable sample numbers, sampling intervals and repetitions. The system collects, processes and provides data for storing on the $4{\frac{1}{4}}$ inch floppy disk as well as for writing out on the printer.

To implement a high-precision lightning tracking system utilizing TDOA measurements, high-speed data acquisition and precise timing synchronization between ground sensors should be achieved. At the same time, considering the size of digitizer's memory, the data memory needs to be managed so that only the sampled data around the occurrence of stepped leader pulse is stored. This paper presents a detection-and-acquisition system for lightning signals that is the main equipment of ground sensor in lightning tracking system. GPS clock module is used to get precise timing synchronization and the 500MHz high speed digitizer is employed. In order to detect the leading edge of the lightning pulse and save the sampled data and its timing, lightning detection module is implemented and multi-record method is employed in the proposed system. Field experiment results show that the proposed system can detect and save the lightning signal efficiently.

In previous paper, we introduced 3d acquisition system with CCD cameras, but it was not distinguished from other 3d acquisition system with PSD camera. In this paper, we introduce the 3d data acquisition system using by stereo method with two cameras, show the calibration method of two cameras, and present 3d acquisition methods. we tried to improve the accuracy of 3d data acquisition and implemented the proposed methods. According to the result, we found that the proposed algorithms can boost the accuracy highly against the previous works. The proposed methods are to remove distortion on input images and adjust z axis. We describes the performance in the result.

The performance of real-time systems depends upon how well the tasks are scheduled within a cycle time and how fastly the response is made according to the occurrence of an external event. This paper presents the design of an effective real-time data acquisition system in order to gather the data from an automobile engine. This paper investigates an estimation and a restriction method of execution for aperiodic data. Also, the guarantee problem of real-time constraint is presented for periodic data. Through the experiments, the hard real-time guarantee problem of periodic data is studied and the damage problem of periodic data according to the increase of aperiodic tasks is analyzed.

3kW grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system and data acquisition system are constructed for performance analysis of PV system at field demonstration test center of Gwang-Ju in Korea. As climatic and irradiation conditions are varied, operation characteristics of the PV system are collected and analyzed in data acquisition system. From these results, the performances of PV system have simulated and evaluated using simulation tool in comparison with actual value of data acquisition system of field demonstration test center. Furthermore, performance of total PV system e.g. electric power and loss factor at the site are reviewed.

To develop reliable 3D face recognition system, many researchers also have focused on 3D face data acquisition system. Previous many 3D face acquisition systems use visible patterns to solve corresponding problem, and this pattern made anyone who wants to be verified uncomfortable. In this paper, we propose a new invisible infrared line-laser pattern for 3D face data acquisition.

Even though official G/T for KOMPSAT-2 X-Band downlink acquisition was 32dB/K, KARI performed the data acquisition experiment using 2Am X-Band antenna to check if popular 2Am MODIS receiving antenna can receive KOMPSAT-2 MSC data within acceptable quality level. Through several acquisition tests, it was shown that G/T value of 24dB/K can provide the reliable data BER quality, 10-6 for the above the elevation angle of 10 degree. Some plots for Eb/No versus elevation angle are provided.

Nowadays, Internet is so popular that we can easily access the remote site to search information and to communicate remote site and users. People who want to make a collaborate working environment can use JAVA, CORBA, and other internet programming tools like a Perl/XML. The mechanist are try to make the environment fur collaboration within design/manufacturing, simulation, remote sensing through TCP/IP And many industries and research institutions are working towards the agile manufacturing. This paper describes an internet-based real-Time remote monitoring system. The system consists of a hardware setup and a software interface. The hardware setup consists of a machine and its data acquisition hardware, while the software interface incorporates the data acquisition software, the server program, and the client program. The server program acts as the main interface between the data acquisition system and the internet technology. The client program is to be distributed to the remote users who want to monitor the machining status. The system has been demonstrated and verified for an industrial High-Speed Machine (HSM) especially measuring cutting force and acoustic emission. To share the signal, we make the WWW server and display its value. The system has been found to be highly efficient, reliable and accurate.

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is one of the important components to form a smart-gird, which is an advanced power system by combining the power system with the communication systems. This AMI makes it possible to exchange information between operators and consumers for the efficient and reliable operation of the power system through a smart meter or a In-Home Display. However, according to the increase of the demanded information such as the power quality, the accurate load-profile, and the billing data to help customers manage their power consumption, it is necessary to gather more accurate analytical data from each house appliances and transfer it to the smart meter for synthesizing the information and controlling each loads. In this paper, the development of the wireless data acquisition device for the individual load data metering, which is connected with the smart meter for advanced functions, is proposed. AVR, a kind of microcontroller, and Bluetooth are used and integrated into the proposed the wireless data acquisition device to transmit the detailed power data (voltage and current) to the smart meter. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed system, a hardware experiment is carried out including the confirmation of the possibility for providing the more various information by applying analysis algorithms to the obtained data. Also, the application structure of the wireless data acquisition device to gather the data from the various house appliances is presented.

Recently, application areas based on M2M (Machine-to-Machine communications) and IoT (Internet of Things) technologies are expanding rapidly. Accordingly, water flow and water quality management improvements are being pursued by applying this technology to water and sewage facilities. Especially, water management will collect and store accurate data based on various ICT technologies, and then will expand its service range to remote meter-reading service using smart metering system. For this, the error in flow rate data transmitting should be minimized to obtain credibility on related additional service system such as real time water flow rate analysis and billing. In this study, we have identified the structural problems in transmitting process and protocol to minimize errors in flow rate data transmission and its handling process which is essential to water supply pipeline management. The result confirmed that data acquisition via communication system is better than via analogue current values and pulse, and for communication method case, applying the industrial standard protocol is better for minimizing errors during data acquisition versus applying user assigned method.
