In nuclear power plants, workers are reluctant of works in steam generator because of the high radiation environment and limited working space. It is strongly recommended that the examination and maintenance works be done by an automatic system for the protection of the operator from the radiation exposure. In this paper, it is proposed a new approach to the development of the automatic vision system to examine and repair the steam generator tubes at remote distance. Digital signal processors are used in implementing real time recognition and examination of steam generator holes in the proposed vision system. Performance of proposed digital vision system is illustrated by experiment for similar steam generator model.

최근에 지능형 로봇분야에서 주위 카메라를 기반으로 실시간으로 환경인식 및 물체 추적 등 다양한 분야에서 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 환경인식 및 물체 추적은 결국 배경과 관심물체를 분리하는 것이라고 볼 수 있는 데, 차 연산을 이용하여 물체의 움직임만을 배경으로 분리하는 방법과 물체인식을 통해 배경으로부터 분리하여 추적하는 방법에 대한 연구가 지속적으로 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 배경과 물체 사이에서 변화하는 색상의 변화를 퍼지기법을 이용하여 물체를 배경과 분리하여 실시간으로 물체를 추적하고자 한다. 실시간 물체 추적을 위해 전체영상에 대한 전역적 탐색을 통해 여러 후보 물체 중 관심물체를 배경에서 추출 후, 추출된 물체의 크기에 따른 지역탐색을 통하여 물체를 추적하는 방법이다. 그리고 본 논문에서는 ARM프로세서를 이용한 카메라시스템을 제작하여 실시간으로 영상분활을 실험하였다.

This paper proposes an architecture of a real-time EtherCAT master library called RtEML. The controls EtherCAT slaves under EtherCAT protocol in real-time. It provides a simple programming interface which is useful in developing robot application in C/C++ or C#. To achieve deterministic, hard real-time control in Microsoft Windows environment without additional hardware, INtime is used. Since INtime is designed specifically to take advantage of the powerful capabilities of the x86 processor architecture, the proposed RtEML achieves microseconds of real-time performance.

FPGA는 ASIC설계의 시험을 위한 테스트용으로 많이 사용되었으나 최근에는 비약적인 성능 향상으로 그 자체로 기능을 구현하고 있다 퍼지 제어기의 구현은 일반적으로 범용 마이크로 프로세서를 이용하거나 DSP 프로세서를 이용하였다. 본 논문에서는 여러 퍼지 시스템 중에서 적은 규칙수로도 효과적인 성능을 나타내고 프로세서화가 용이한 TSK 퍼지 시스템을 구현한다. 대상 FPGA는 Xilinx사의 FPGA를 이용하고 Schematic과 VHDL을 혼용하여 설계한다 또한 구현된 프로세서의 범용성을 유지하기 위해 외부 ROM에서 연산에 필요한 계수를 취하는 방식을 채택 한다.

As increasing gastrointestinal pathologies, general and thoracic surgeries using circular staplers have been dramatically increased. Because of convenience for surgical procedure, recently, various circular staplers for anastomosis have been used widely. Since the circular staplers conventional have used the displacement control method, however, the anastomosis could have various biomechanical conditions. To do that, biomechanical system of gastrointestinal soft tissue should be examined to control the anastomotic condition. In this study, a new intelligent robot used in circular anastomosis. The intelligent robot driven by a stepper motor and controlled by a digital signal processor.

This paper proposes a confronting feedback control structure and controllers for positive output elementary super lift Luo converters (POESLLCs) working in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The POESLLC offers the merits like high voltage transfer gain, good efficiency, and minimized coil current and capacitor voltage ripples. The POESLLC working in DCM holds the value of not having right half pole zero (RHPZ) in their control to output transfer function unlike continuous conduction mode (CCM). Also the DCM bestows superlative dynamic response, eliminates the reverse recovery troubles of diode and retains the stability. The proposed control structure involves two controllers respectively to control the voltage (outer) loop and the current (inner) loop to confront the time-varying ON/OFF characteristics of variable structured systems (VSSs) like POESLLC. This study involves two different combination of feedback controllers viz. the proportional integral controller (PIC) plus sliding mode controller (SMC) and the fuzzy logic controller (FLC) plus SMC. The state space averaging modeling of POESLLC in DCM is reviewed first, then design of PIC, FLC and SMC are detailed. The performance of developed controller combinations is studied at different working states of the POESLLC system by MATLAB-Simulink implementation. Further the experimental corroboration is done through implementation of the developed controllers in PIC 16F877A processor. The prototype uses IRF250 MOSFET, IR2110 driver and UF5408 diodes. The results reassured the proficiency of designed FLC plus SMC combination over its counterpart PIC plus SMC.

In this thesis, to accurately measure 3D face information using the spatial encoding patterns, the new algorithm to segment the pattern images from initial face pattern image is proposed. If the obtained images is non-homogeneous texture and ambiguous boundary pattern, the pattern segmentation is very difficult. Furthermore. the non-encoded areas by accumulated error are occurred. In this thesis, the FCM(fuzzy c-means) clustering method is proposed to enhance the robust encoding and segmentation rate under non-homogeneous texture and ambiguous boundary pattern. The initial parameters for experiment such as clustering class number, maximum repetition number, and error tolerance are set with 2, 100, 0.0001 respectively. The proposed pattern segmentation method increased 8-20% segmentation rate with conventional binary segmentation methods.

근래의 프로세서는 하나의 다이 위에 여러 개의 코어를 배치한 멀티코어 형태를 띠고 있다. 최근에는 프로세서의 에너지 소비량을 줄이기 위해 비대칭 멀티코어를 활용하여 동일한 성능을 유지하며 소비전력을 낮추는 방법에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 비대칭 멀티코어의 장점을 최대한 활용하기 위해서는 대칭형 멀티코어와는 달리 실행해야 할 프로세스와 상이한 코어간의 작동 특성을 고려해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 전력 소비 효율 향상을 위해 프로세스 스케줄링 알고리즘에 하이브리드 인공지능 기술인 Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS)를 적용하여 각 프로세스에 적합한 코어를 찾아 할당하는 방법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과 제안하는 프로세스 스케줄러는 리눅스의 CFS 대비 평균 35.4% 낮은 Energy Delay Product (EDP)를 보였으며 이를 통해 하이브리드 인공지능을 적용한 프로세스 스케줄링 알고리즘의 유효성을 입증하였다.
