This paper proposes a music recommendation system for a driver in vehicle. The proposed system provides (selects and plays) a music to a driver in vehicle in real-time manner by inferring his preference based on physical, environmental, and personal information. Pulse data as physical information, age and biorhythm as personal information, and time as environmental information are used to infer a driver's and thus recommend a music. Experimental results showed that the proposed system could provide better satisfaction to a driver on the recommended music compared to the conventional approach.

In this paper, SOA Current and Temperature Driver which consisted of LabVIEW programming part capable of current and temperature transient response pattern design, DAQ module for analog voltage in&out, and voltage to current converting chips has realized. The output current(possible to 3A) from the Driver to SOA was clearly constant without ripple and also showed no variance until 1mA unit for a long time operation. The temperature of TEC took several seconds to reach a set temperature, and were maintained stably within ${\pm}^0.1{\circ}C$ for several hours. The proposed Driver can replace the previous high cost SOA Drivers for wavelength swept lasers fully and provides the convenience of transient response design capability for current and temperature.

In this paper, the low cost SOA Dimming Driver which consisted of LabVIEW programming part capable of current pattern design, DAQ module for analog voltage output, and voltage to current converter has realized. The output current(possible to 3A) from the Driver was clearly constant without ripple and also showed no variance until 1mA unit for a long time operation. The proposed low cost Driver can replace the previous high cost SOA Drivers for wavelength swept lasers fully and provide the convenience and safety of auto-supplying a designed current pattern.

CNS (Car Navigation System) is the most compatible candidate among various in-vehicle information systems as a provider of ITS (Intelligence Transport Systems) information. It generally consists of remote controller, display, CD-changer, GPS receiver and so on. Among them, display is the most important and critical element of the HMI (Human-Machine Interface) suggesting the digital map to the driver. Therefore, it is certain that the display gives cognitive, physical, mental and visual workloads to the driver which are directly related with the driver's and road safety with the success of ITS. Until now, various human factors techniques have been developed and applied to estimate the driver's workload and to collect the driver's requirements of the CNS digital map, for example, mental workload assessment, visual activity analysis, cognitive analysis and so on. In addition to these kinds of techniques, this research performed the human sensibility ergonomics approach to directly investigate and evaluate the driver's requirements and sensibilities of the real products.

A device driver is the core construction providing connectable rules between a hardware and an operating system in Embedded softwares. It provides consistent interface for the control and mutual interactions so that an application program can use hardware's functionalities. However, the device driver is suffered to develop as it is related to both hardware and software and it is also wasted to newly develop whenever hardware platform changed. Therefore, this paper researches the method to provide high portability in heterogenous hardware and finally suggests efficient device driver development.

The distributed power conversion LED driver circuit using parasitic inductance is proposed in this paper. while the conventional LED driver circuit is composed of the large size devices and heatsinks, the proposed circuit can be realized with the small sized no heatsink based. since the processing power can be effectively distributed. Also by using the wire parasitic inductance of the LED string, the proposed circuit can be implemented without external magnetic device. As a result, the proposed circuit which features the small size and volume con be realized even without LED driver module(LDM) board. since, all the device can be attached to the existing LED array Module(LAM) board. Therefore, it features that cost savings and volume reduction of circuit. To confirm the validity of the proposed circuit, theoretical analysis and experimental results from a distributed power conversion LED driver circuit prototype are presented.

A fast switching gate driver suitable for high performance self resonant electronic ballasts is presented. The proposed gate driver has negligible switching loss and driving loss owing to pnpn structure and zero voltage switching( ZVS ); moreover, the gate driver has frequency control capability. Therefore, a self resonant inverter using proposed gate driver can operate as external exciting resonant inverters. The experiments confirm that the proposed gate driver perform the desired operations over full power control range for 40W fluorescent lamp electronic ballast.

Automative system and robot are operated by motor. Recently, automative system and robot need correct operation and control for precise task. Therefore they need precise motor control technology. In present, controller needs precise motor control technology in automative system and robot. Usual step motor driver that has 200 steps per revolution is not proper. So we need micro step motor driver that is more precise then usual step motor driver. In this paper, micro step motor driver is used for precise control of step motor. The goal is precise operation and location control. This micro step motor driver is A3972SB that is made in Alloegro Company. It has serial port that receives two 6-bits linear DAC value. Almost all systems generate DAC value with micro processer and ...

Ergonomic vehicle design is very important for driver's safety and sensibility. Many studies have emphasized the physical factors of human operator and usability of control devices. However, driver's cognitive factors such as the shape of cognitive map have not been well documented. The aim of this research is to find the relationship between the shape of Instrument Pane (IP) in driver's cognitive map and the real vehicle. To do this, Sketch Map Method (SMM), that is an extraction method of cognitive map, was employed to extract the shape of middle-aged driver's cognitive map. In this study, SMM was modified to formulate driver's cognitive map because this process is not being in the existing SMM. Next, correlation was analyzed between individual cognitive map and the shape of real vehicle's IP. The result showed that the position of volume control switch and cigar jack was similar between these but the position of others wasn't.

This paper proposes a sense amplifier with non-volatile memory in order to improve the image quality of LCD by enhancing the matching of the driving voltages between the panel and driver. The sense amplifier having a wide sensing margin and fast response adjusts LCD driver voltage of display driver. The CSTN-LCD with the sense amplifier results improved image quality than that with conventional 6 bit column driver without it.
