In this paper, we propose a hybrid sensor calibration scheme for mobile crowdsensing applications. As the number of newly produced mobile devices containing embedded sensors continues to rise, the potential to use mobile devices as a sensor data source increases. However, because mobile device sensors are generally of a lower performance and cost than dedicated sensors, sensor calibration is crucial. To enable more accurate measurements of natural phenomena through the use of mobile device sensors, we propose a hybrid sensor calibration scheme for such sensors; the scheme makes use of mobile device sensors and existing sensing infrastructure, such as weather stations, to obtain dense data. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme supports low mean square errors. As a practical application of our proposed scheme, we built a temperature map of a city using six mobile phone sensors and six reference sensors. Thanks to the mobility of the sensors and the proposed scheme, our map presents more detailed information than infrastructure-based measurements.

Carefully designed ZnO nanowire-film hybrid nanostructure, composed of a bottom ZnO film, ZnO nanowire arrays, and a top ZnO film, was consecutively fabricated by adjusting the supersaturation conditions using a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) to utilize the vertically aligned ZnO nanowires as the oxygen sensors. The decrease of current flow through ZnO nanowire arrays increasing oxygen pressure showed the high potential for the application of the ZnO hybrid nanostructure to the oxygen sensors. In addition, it was confirmed that the oxygen sensing characteristics of this hybrid nanostructure were attributed to the defects near the surface of the nanowires.

4차 산업혁명의 도래와 함께 빠른 속도로 발전하고 있는 IoT 기술은 다양한 센서의 무선화를 가능하게 하였으며 많은 분야에서 응용연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만, 철도현장의 경우 수 km에 이르는 교량, 터널 등 계측사이트의 규모가 매우 방대한 특징으로 인해, 보편적으로 활용되는 전기식 센서의 경우 원거리 계측으로 인한 신호 잡음 문제, 전철화에 따른 고전압 환경에 기인한 전자기파 간섭 문제로 계측에 어려움이 있다. 이를 극복하고자, 전기식 센서를 대체하기 위한 광섬유 센서 연구가 많이 수행되었으나, 센서 종류의 다양성 부족 등이 현장 적용의 한계로 작용하고 있는 실정이다. 이런 현장의 상황을 토대로, 전기식 센서와 광섬유 센서를 동시에 사용할 수 있으며 IoT 기술을 통해 무선 데이터 통신이 가능한 하이브리드 계측시스템이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는, 선행연구를 통해 개발된 하이브리드 계측시스템의 다양한 계측현장 적용성을 평가하기 위해 4가지 형태의 계측환경을 모사하여 실시간 계측 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과, 전기식 및 광학식 센서 모두 높은 추종성을 보이며 원격지에서 실시간으로 계측이 가능하였으며, 본 계측시스템이 50개의 센서를 동시에 2.5kHz의 샘플링으로 계측할 경우에도 적용 가능한 수준임을 확인하였다. 향후, IoT 기반 하이브리드 계측시스템의 다양한 현장 적용을 통해 실시간 건전성 모니터링 기술 기반의 구조안전성 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

Recently, the systems using multiple sensors such as magnetic, acoustic and pressure sensor are used for detection of underwater objects or vehicles. Those systems have difficulty of maintenance and repair because they operate underwater. Thus, this paper describes a hybrid detection system with long term operating reliability. This has a multi-signal transmission structure to have a high reliability. First, a signal transmission & receiving part, which transfers data from underwater sensors to land and receive control message from land through optical cable, has 4 multi-path. Second, the nodes for signal transmission are connected dually each other with single-hop construction and sensors are connected to a couple of neighboring nodes. This enables the output signal to transmit from a node to the next node and the next but one node together. Also, the signal from a sensor can be transmitted to two nodes at the same time. Therefore, the system with this construction has high reliability in long term operation because it makes possible to transmit sensor data to another node which works normally although a transmission node or cable in system have some faults.

After introducing Hybrid Bonding technology into image sensors using stacked sensors and image processors, large quantity production became possible. As a result, it is currently used in most of the CMOS image market in smartphones and other image-based devices worldwide, and almost all stacked CIS manufacturing sites have focused on miniaturization using hybrid bonding. In this study, an upper wafer handling module for Wafer to Wafer Hybrid Bonding developed to increase the alignment and precision between wafers when wafer bonding. The module was divided two parts to reduce error of both the alignment and degree of precision during wafer bonding. Wafer handling module developed both new Tip/Tilt system controlling θx,θy of upper wafer and striker to push upper wafer. Based on this, it was confirmed through the stability evaluation that the upper wafer handling module can be controlled without any problem during W2W hybrid bonding.

Smart structural system is defined as structural system with a certain-level of autonomy relying on the embedded functions of sensors, actuators and processors, that can automatically adjust structural characteristics, in response to the change in external disturbance and environments, toward structural safety and serviceability as well as the extension of structural service life. In this study, carbon and glass hybrid fiber materials were investigated fundamentally for the applicability of self diagnosis in smart concrete structural system as embedded functions of sensors.

The accurate detection of hydrogen gas molecules is considered to be important for industrial safety. However, the selective detection of the gas using semiconductive metal oxides (SMOs)-based sensors is challenging. Here, we describe the fabrication of H₂ sensors in which a nanocellulose/graphene oxide (GO) hybrid membrane is attached to SnO₂ nanosheets (NSs). One-dimensional (1D) nanocellulose fibrils are attached to the surface of GO NSs (GONC membrane) by mixing GO and nanocellulose in a solution. The as-prepared GONC membrane is employed as a sacrificial template for SnO₂ NSs as well as a molecular sieving membrane for selective H₂ filtration. The combination of GONC membrane and SnO₂ NSs showed substantial selectivity to hydrogen gas (R_air / R_gas > 10 @ 0.8 % H₂, 100 ℃) with noise level responses to interfering gases (H₂S, CO, CH₃COCH₃, C₂H₅OH, and NO₂). These remarkable sensing results are attributed mainly to the molecular sieving effect of the GONC membrane. These results can facilitate the development of a highly selective H₂ detector using SMO sensors.

In this paper, a novel 5-axis hybrid-kinematic machine tool is introduced and the research results on accuracy improvement of the prototype machine tool are presented. The 5-axis hybrid machine tool is made up of a 3-DOF parallel manipulator and a 2-DOF serial one connected in series. The machine tool maintains high ratio of stiffness to mass due to the parallel structure and high orientation capability due to the serial-type wrist. In order to acquire high accuracy, the methodology of measuring the output shafts by additional sensors instead of using encoder outputs at the motor shafts is proposed. In the kinematic view point, the hybrid manipulator reduces to a serial one, if the passive joints in the U-P serial chain at the center of the parallel manipulator are directly measured by additional sensors. Using the method of successive screw displacements, the kinematic error model is derived. Since a ball-bar is less expensive than a full position measurement device and sufficiently accurate for calibration, the kinematic calibration method of using a ball-bar is presented. The effectiveness of the calibration method has been verified through the simulations. Finally, the calibration experiment shows that the position accuracy of the prototype machine tool has been improved from 153 to $86{\mu}m$.
