In this paper, presents an efficient education method for training specialized edutainment SW education instructors and drone realistic media creators, not just training to acquire certificates through drone manipulation training. To this end, the NCS-based curriculum was derived. The developed curriculum includes the edutainment drone curriculum and the realistic media creator curriculum. Among them, core responsibilities were defined for the drone control curriculum and core tasks, knowledge, and attitudes were described for each. After that, a detailed curriculum for drone control was derived. In the realistic media creator curriculum, pilot education was conducted to actually produce advertisement videos to foster experts who can work directly in the industrial field. Finally, through holding an online conference in a metaverse environment, a virtual conference was operated to share and discuss media videos produced by trainees. After the end of education, the efficiency of this curriculum was proved through education satisfaction analysis for 46 education graduates. This paper presented a method to achieve internalization of SW education in non-face-to-face online education that our society must solve after post-COVID-19. In addition, an efficient educational method in a realistic media environment was suggested by showing a realistic media creator training curriculum, pilot programs, and metaverse conference management cases.

In the case of fixed CCTV, there is a problem in that a shadow area occurs, even if the visible range is maximized by utilizing the pan-tilt and zoom functions. The representative solution for that problem is that a plurality of fixed CCTVs are used. This requires a large amount of additional equipment (e.g., wires, facilities, monitors, etc.) proportional to the number of the CCTVs. Another solution is to use drones that are equipped with cameras and fly. However, Drone's operation time is much short. In order to extend the time, we can use multiple drones and can fly one by one. In this case, drones that need to recharge their batteries re-enter into a ready state at the drone port for next operation. In this paper, we propose a system for precised positioning and stable landing on the drone port by utilizing a small drone equipped with a fixed forward-facing monocular camera. For our conclusion, we implement our proposed system, operate, and finally verify our feasibility.

In modern society drones are actively utilized in the fields of security, defense, agriculture, communication and so on. Smart technology and artificial intelligence software have been developed with convergence, and the field of use is expected to expand further. On the point of the excellent performance of drones one of the essential technologies is the wireless communication that make the ground facility receive the video streaming obtained by the drones in the air. In the research the concept of communication region is proposed to cover the both the low altitude region for Wi-Fi communication and the high altitude region for LTE communication for the sake of video transmission. Also the hybrid communication structure is designed along the proposed concept and the proposed system is implemented as a communication system in the small size which can be mounted in a small size of drone. It is confirmed that the proposed system contains the effectiveness by showing the ability to successfully transmit HD video streaming in the range of 500 meters and the transfer time between two different communication systems is measured in 200msec by the experiments.

PURPOSES : Most of the traffic surveys are carried out by an inspection method by the manpower. In some cases, the video equipment is used only in some regions when the traffic volume is surveyed. In this case, there is environmental restriction that the road equipment to fix the video equipment should exist. Also, in areas where information such as digital maps and satellite photographs is old or not provided, they are forced to rely on manpower research, but it is difficult to put huge amounts of time and money into the research in places where labor supply and demand is difficult. This difficulty is particularly pronounced in overseas business. METHODS : The purpose of this study is to improve the efficiency of business by using the drones in the traffic investigation through analysis of the cost reduction effect between the existing method and the proposed method in the overseas business traffic survey. The scope of the research is limited to the scope of research, and based on the case of overseas projects, the method of using drone for each research sector is suggested. RESULTS : In the traffic condition survey section, we propose the use of drone for traffic survey and queue length survey, and it is confirmed that there is a cost saving effect of 16% ~ 27% compared with the existing method. In the road condition survey, we propose the use of drones for road surface linear survey, geometry survey, and obstacle survey, and it was confirmed that the cost reduction effect is 39% ~ 93% compared to the existing method. CONCLUSIONS : In addition to overseas business, it is expected that it will have a positive effect on research time and cost reduction by using drone in traffic survey in domestic area where labor supply is not easy or basic data is insufficient.

This study focuses on utilizing drones for performance evaluation of ITS detectors and analyzing economic feasibility when performance evaluation is conducted by the traffic management center's own personnel using drones. The study sites were selected from DSRC, video detector, and radar detector locations and drone filming was conducted to obtain travel speed, queue length, and delay time and compare with the detector data. It was shown that drones can be very effectively used to evaluate performance of major ITS detectors such as DSRC and video detectors. In addition, it was analyzed that a drone operated by the traffic management center's own personnel provides very economic solution for ITS detector performance evaluation when compared to consignment by external agencies.

Drone refers to an unmanned flying system according to the remote control. That is a remote control systems on the ground or a system that automatically or semi auto-piloted system without pilot on board. Drones have been used and developed before for military purposes. However there are currently utilized in a variety of areas such as logistics and distribution of relief supplies disaster areas, wireless Internet connection, TV, video shooting and disaster observation, tracking criminals etc. Especially it can be actively used in activities such as search or the structure of the disaster site, and may be able to detect the movement of people and an attacker using an infrared camera at night. Drones are very effective for private security.

Recently, as the use of drones increases, the risk of drone accidents and third-party property damage is also increasing. In Korea, due to the recent increase in drone use, accidents have been frequently reported in the media. The number of reports from citizens, and military and police calls regarding illegal or inappropriate drone use has also been increasing. Drone operators may be responsible for paying damages to third parties due to drone accidents, and are liable for paying settlements due to illegal video recording. Therefore, it is necessary to study the idea of providing drone insurance, which can mitigate the liability and risk caused by drone accidents. In the US, comprehensive housing insurance covers damages caused by recreational drones around the property. In the UK, when a drone accident occurs, the drone owner or operator bears strict liability. Also, in the UK, drone insurance joining obligation depends on the weight of the drones and their intended use. In Germany, in the event of personal or material damage, drone owner bears strict liability as long as their drone is registered as an aircraft. Germany also requires by law that all drone owners carry liability insurance. In Korea, insurance is required only for "ultra-light aircraft use businesses, airplane rental companies and leisure sports businesses," where the aircraft is "paid for according to the demand of others." Therefore, it can be difficult to file claims for third party damages caused by unmanned aerial vehicles in personal use. Foreign insurance companies are selling drone insurance that covers a variety of damages that can occur during drone accidents. Some insurance companies in Korea also have developed and sell drone insurance. However, the premiums are very high. In addition, drone insurance that addresses specific problems related to drone accidents is also lacking. In order for drone insurance to be viable, it is first necessary to reduce the insurance premiums or rates. In order to trim the excess cost of drone insurance premiums, drone flight data should be accessible to the insurance company, possibly provided by the drone pilot project. Finally, in order to facilitate claims by third parties, it is necessary to study how to establish specific policy language that addresses drone weight, location, and flight frequency.

Recently, As the interest of the drone has increased the fields such as broadcasting, disaster site and leisure which uses the drone has been constantly expanded. However, an invasion of a person's privacy and a threat of hacking attack also have increased as population of drone. High-resolution cameras mounted on drones can take a photo or real-time video anytime and anywhere. It causes the invasion of privacy from private houses, buildings, and hotels. In this paper, we perform a security vulnerability assessment tests on the camera's from common commercial drones and we propose the countermeasures to protect the drones against unauthorized attacker who attempts to access the drone's camera from internal or external. Through this research, we expect the Aviation Act and legislation accept the concept of security and provide the polices such as drones equipped with security devices from the production stage to promote drone industry.

Recently, the use of drone has been increasing rapidly in many ways. A drone can capture remote objects efficiently so it is suitable for surveillance and security systems. This paper discusses three methods for detecting moving vehicles using a drone. We compare three target detection methods using a background frame, preceding frames, or moving average frames. They are subtracted from a current frame. After the frame subtraction, morphological filters are applied to increase the detection rate and reduce the false alarm rate. In addition, the false alarm region is removed based on the true size of targets. In the experiments, three moving vehicles were captured by a drone, and the detection rate and the false alarm rate were obtained by three different methods and the results are compared.
