Recent research into wireless sensor network (WSN)-related technology that senses various data has recognized the need for spatio-temporal queries for searching necessary data from wireless sensor nodes. Answers to the queries are transmitted from sensor nodes, and for the efficient transmission of the sensed data to the application server, research on index processing methods that increase accuracy while reducing the energy consumption in the node and minimizing query delays has been conducted extensively. Previous research has emphasized the importance of accuracy and energy efficiency of the sensor node's routing process. In this study, we propose an itinerary-based R-tree (IR-tree) to solve the existing problems of spatial query processing methods such as efficient processing and expansion of the query to the spatio-temporal domain.

The attitude knowledge error model is formulated for specifically KOMPSAT attitude determination system using the Lefferts/Markley/Shuster method, and the attitude determination(AD) error analysis is performed so as to investgate the on-board attitude determination capability of KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite(KOMPSAT) using the covariance analysis method. Analysis results show there is almost no initial value effect on Attitude Determination (AD) error and the sensor noise effects on AD error are drastically decreased as is predicted because of the inherent characteristic of Kalman filter structure. However, it shows that the earth radiance effect of IR-sensor(earth sensor) and the bias effects of both IR-sensor and fine sun sensor are the dominant factors degrading AD error and gyro rate bias estimate error in AD system. Analysis results show that the attitude determination errors of roll, pitch and yaw axes are 0.056, 0.092 and 0.093 degrees, respectively. These numbers are smaller than the required values for the normal mission of KOMPSAT. Also, the selected on-orbit data of KOMPSAT is presented to demonstrate the designed AD system.

Recently, residential spaces in urban areas have changed into multi - family residential spaces. There is a feature that smoke is charged when a fire occurs here. Also, the evacuation route and the direction of the outflow of smoke are the same, and the possibility of inhaling the smoke of the evacuees is very high. When fighting fire in a narrow residential space such as a dwelling in a downtown area, exploration is the most important. For this purpose, we implement EO / IR sensor which can be mounted on firefighter 's helmet and can be used for fire detection. By using the EO / IR operation test, we can derive the results that can be used for research and development of the fire search sensor.

This paper proposes a hand posture recognition with pattern-matching method, embedding a simple paradigm using an Infrared sensor array. Our pattern-matching based hand posture recognition is specification supports fun and the user experience when communicating between humans and telecommunication devices, including robots. Our non-contact type input device (IR-Sensor Array) transmits commands to control mobile robots. It can also control Google Earth’s map searching programs, and other applications.

A new registration method for IR image and EO image is proposed in this paper. IR sensor is applicable to many area because it absorbs thermal radiation energy unlike EO sensor does. However, IR sensor has difficulty to extract and match features due to low contrast compared to EO image. In order to register both images, we used modified SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform) and block processing to increase feature distinctiveness. To remove outlier, we applied RANSAC(RANdom SAample Concensus) for each block. Finally, we unified matching features into single coordinate system and remove outlier again. We used 3~5um range IR image, and our experiment result showed good robustness in registration with IR image.

Muzzle flash based on gunnery is the target that has huge energy. So, gunnery target in a long range over xx km is distinguishable in the IR(infrared) images, on the other hand, is not distinguishable in the CCD images. In this paper, we propose the classification method of gunnery targets in a infrared images and in a long range. The energy from gunnery have an effect on varous pixel values in infrared images as a property of infrared image sensor, distance, and atmosphere, etc. For this reason, it is difficult to classify gunnery targets using pixel values in infrared images. In proposed method, we take the profile of pixel values using high performance infrared sensor, and classify gunnery targets using modeling GMM and shape of profile. we experiment on the proposed method with infrared images in the ground and aviation. In experimental result, the proposed method provides about 93% classification rate.

The IR signal entering into a sensor is composed of the following components: the self-emitted component directly from the object surface, the reflected components of the solar and sky irradiance at the object surface, and the scattered component by the atmosphere without reference to any object surfaces. The self-emitted and reflected components from the object can be lowered by the atmospheric layer between the object and the IR sensor. The principle factors influencing the atmospheric transmittance are the air temperature, the relative humidity and the observation distance. Previous studies on IR signal transmission through the atmosphere are focused on uniform atmospheric conditions and the non-uniform nature of the atmosphere was not properly treated in modeling. In this study, we use the local atmospheric transmittance to simulate the non-uniform atmosphere in analyzing the IR signal from the object surface. The results show that the nonuniform analysis of the atmosphere becomes more important as the wavelength of IR signal increases.

In this study, we have fabricated a fiber-optic radiation sensor using an organic scintillator and plastic optical fiber for brachytherapy dosimetry. Also, we have measured relative depth dose rates of Ir-192 source using a fiber-optic sensor and compared them with the results obtained using a conventional EBT film. Cerenkov lights which can be a noise in measuring scintillating light with a fiber-optic sensor are measured and eliminated by using of a background optical fiber. It is expected that a fiber-optic radiation sensor can be used in brachytherapy dosimetry due to its advantages such as a low cost, simple usage and a small volume.

An infrared temperature sensor module developed for the detection of defects in a plate was modified to use in a cylinder. A set of optical fiber leads and a mechanism maintaining sensor-object distance constant were utilized for the modification of the IR sensor module. The detection performance was experimentally investigated, and the measured temperature was also compared with computed temperature distribution. The experimental outcome indicates that the detection of a simulated defect is readily available. The temperature distribution is better for defect detection than that with the previous device. In addition, the measured distribution is comparable to the calculated one using a heat conduction equation. The developed device of defect detection is suitable to be utilized in chemical processes where most of vessels and piping systems are in the shape of a cylinder.
