An autonomous lan vehicle for agriculture(ALVA-II) was developed. A prototype vehicle was made by modifying a commercial tractor. A Navigation sensor system with a geo-magnetic sensor performed the autonomous operations of ALVA-II, such as rotary tilling with headland turnings. A navigation sensor system with a machine vision system was also investigated to control ALVA-II following a work boudnary.

The need for position information in agriculture is gradually increasing for precise control farm vehicle and effective manage farm land. Though geomagnetic sensor has a lot of merits in estimating heading angle of vehicle because of low costs and sensing ability of magnetic north, it is easy that sensor outputs are distorted in electro magnetic field environment. This study was conducted to develop geomagnetic compass which could be available in measuring relative position from reference point correcting output distorted by external electro magnetic field in a small scale field. Magnetic inducing sensor (PNI's Vector2X) which wound enamel coated copper coil on ferrite core in order to measure and correct earth magnetic field. Magnetic azimuth was corrected using the algorithm which estimated amount of magnetic distortion from the difference between each outputs of magnetic sensors that located on the cross shaped base. Developed auto-tuning magnetic sensor was showed less then 5% as bearing accuracy in the strong magnetic field.

This study was conducted to develop a robust navigator which could be in positioning for precision farming through developing a plural GPS receiver with 4 sets of GPS antenna. In order to improve positioning accuracy by integrating GPS signals received simultaneously, the algorithm for processing plural GPS signal effectively was designed. Performance of the algorithm was tested using a simulation program and a fixed point on WGS 84 coordinates. Results of this study are aummarized as followings. 1. 4 sets of lower grade GPS receiver and signals were integrated by kalman filter algorithm and geometric algorithm to increase positioning accuracy of the data. 2. Prototype was composed of 4 sets of GPS receiver and INS components. All Star which manufactured by CMC, gyro compass made by KVH, ground speed sensor and integration S/W based on RTOS(Real Time Operating System)were used. 3. Integration algorithm was simulated by developed program which could generate random position error less then 10 m and tested with the prototype at a fixed position. 4. When navigation data was integrated by geometrical correction and kalman filter algorithm, estimated positioning erros were less then 0.6 m and 1.0 m respectively in simulation and fixed position tests.

본 논문에서는 농작물 다중 분광 이미지에 대해 특징 융합 기법을 이용하여 의미론적 분할 성능을 향상시키기 위한 프레임워크를 제안한다. 스마트팜 분야에서 연구 중인 딥러닝 기술 중 의미론적 분할 모델 대부분은 RGB(red-green-blue)로 학습을 진행하고 있고 성능을 높이기 위해 모델의 깊이와 복잡성을 증가시키는 데에 집중하고 있다. 본 연구는 기존 방식과 달리 다중 분광과 어텐션 메커니즘을 통해 모델을 최적화하여 설계한다. 제안하는 방식은 RGB 단일 이미지와 함께 UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle)에서 수집된 여러 채널의 특징을 융합하여 특징 추출 성능을 높이고 상호보완적인 특징을 인식하여 학습 효과를 증대시킨다. 특징 융합에 집중할 수 있도록 모델 구조를 개선하고, 작물 이미지에 유리한 채널 및 조합을 실험하여 다른 모델과의 성능을 비교한다. 실험 결과 RGB와 NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index)가 융합된 모델이 다른 채널과의 조합보다 성능이 우수함을 보였다.
