To make a robust object tracking and identifying system for an intelligent robot and/or home system, heterogeneous sensor fusion between visible ray system and infrared ray system is proposed. The proposed system separates the object by combining the ROI (Region of Interest) estimated from two different images based on a heterogeneous sensor that consolidates the ordinary CCD camera and the IR (Infrared) camera. Human's body and face are detected in both images by using different algorithms, such as histogram, optical-flow, skin-color model and Haar model. Also the pose of human body is estimated from the result of body detection in IR image by using PCA algorithm along with AdaBoost algorithm. Then, the results from each detection algorithm are fused to extract the best detection result. To verify the heterogeneous sensor fusion system, few experiments were done in various environments. From the experimental results, the system seems to have good tracking and identification performance regardless of the environmental changes. The application area of the proposed system is not limited to robot or home system but the surveillance system and military system.

Infrared guided weapons act as threats that greatly degrade the survivability of combat aircraft. Infrared weapons detect and track the target aircraft by sensing the infrared signature radiated from the aircraft fuselage. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the infrared signature and susceptibility of supersonic aircraft according to omni-directional detection angle. Through the numerical analysis, we derived the surface temperature distribution of fuselage and omni-directional infrared signature. Then, we calculated the detection range according to detection angle in consideration of IR sensor's parameters. Using in-house code, the lethal range was calculated by considering the relative velocity between aircraft and IR missile. As a result, the elevational susceptibility is larger than the azimuthal susceptibility, and it means that the aircraft can be attacked in wider area at the elevational situation.

It is very important for a mobile robot to recognize and model its environments for navigation. However, the grid map constructed by sonar sensors cannot accurately represent the environment, especially the narrow environment, due to the angular uncertainty of sonar data. Therefore, we propose a map building scheme which combines sonar sensors and IR sensors. The maps built by sonar sensors and IR sensors are combined with different weights which are determined by the degree of translational and rotational motion of a robot. To increase the effectiveness of sensor fusion, we also propose optimal sensor arrangement through various experiments. The experimental results show that the proposed method can represent the environment such as narrow corridor and open door more accurately than conventional sonar sensor-based map building methods.

The $CO_2$ measuring system using infrared sensor has the variance according to the temperature change. Therefore, the temperature compensation should be needed to obtain a reliable measurement. In this study, the sensor module consist of infrared $CO_2$ Sensor, IR Source, pipe and the heater and measuring system has amplifier, A/D converter and microprocessor. And we suggest a method to reduce the error by using the PID temperature control. We use optimum parameters setting of Ziegler & Nichols as well as PID temperature control algorithm for the temperature compensation. In this method, PID optimum parameter is set from dummy time(L) and maximum slope(R). As a result of using this PID temperature control, it is founded that it has the fast response and low steady state error. Therefore, it is certainly proved that this is very suitable algorithm to correct the error on measurement.

We have tested the performance of the Proto-model of Space Infrared Cryogenic System (PSICS), which is a small infrared camera, developed by Korea Astronomy and Space science Institute (KASI), Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI), Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM), and i3system co., as a cooperation project. The purpose of PSICS is to ensure a technology of small infrared cryogenic system for future development of space infrared (IR) cameras. PSICS consists of cryogenic part, IR sensor and electronics part, and optical part. The performance test of each part and the integrated system has been completed successfully. PSICS will be used as a guiding camera for ground-based IR telescopes and a test system for developing a space-borne instrument.

In this study, the thermal and optical proper-ties of multicomponent oxide glass fiber for IR sensor by adding heavy metal oxide Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$ were investigated. The fiber samples were made by rod-in tube method. The optical loss of fiber was measured in 0.3-1.8/M wavelength region. As Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$ increased up to 12wt%, the transition and softening temperature of bulk glass were increased from 495.deg. C to 564.deg. C and from 548.deg. C to 612.deg. C respectively. Whereas the thermal expansion coefficient was decreased from 102 to 88.2*10$^{-7}$ /.deg. C. The refractive index was increased from 1.621 to 1.662, and IR cut-off wavelength was enlarged from 4.64.mu.m to 5.22.mu.m. The optical loss of fiber was decreased and more remarkably decreased in 1.146.mu.m-1.8.mu.m wavelength region.
