  • A QRT(Quad-Rotor Type) hovering robot system is developed for quick detection and observation of the circumstances under calamity environment such as indoor fire spots. The UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is equipped with four propellers driven by each electric motor, an embedded controller using a DSP, INS(Inertial Navigation System) using 3-axis rate gyros, a CCD camera with wireless communication transmitter for observation, and an ultrasonic range sensor for height control. The developed hovering robot shows stable flying performances under the adoption of RIC(Robust Internal-loop Compensator) based disturbance compensation and the vision based localization method. The UAV can also avoid obstacles using eight IR and four ultrasonic range sensors. The VTOL(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) flying object flies into indoor fire spots and sends the images captured by the CCD camera to the operator. This kind of small-sized UAV can be widely used in various calamity observation fields without danger of human beings under harmful environment.

  • In Korea, u-City has been constructed as IT-based new city with introduction of the ubiquitous concept. However, most currently provided u-services are just monitoring services based on the USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology, so spatial analysis is insufficient. Especially, buildings have been rapidly constructed and expanded in multi-levels, and people spend a lot of time in indoor space, so indoor spatial analysis is necessary. Therefore, connectivity relationship in indoor space is analyzed using the topological data model. Topological relationships could be redefined due to the dynamic changes of environment in indoor space, and changes could have an effect on analysis results. In this paper, the algorithms of finding isolated zones is developed by analyzing connectivity relationship between space objects in built-environments after changes of environment in indoor space due to specific situation such as fire. And the system that visualizes isolated zones as well as three-dimensional data structure of indoor space is developed to get the analysis result by using the analysis algorithms.

  • Wireless sensor networks(WSN), which are mainly used for indoor positioning, rely on the accuracy of RSSI. This RSSI is sensitive to several factors that cause interference, and there are foreign studies showing that temperature has a large effect on RSSI in indoor/outdoor environment among several factors. The temperature of the indoor space is uneven due to heat sources or air cooling systems indoors, and temperature changes frequently occur at certain locations. In particular, in case of an indoor fire, the accurate positioning system is required to guide an evacuation route, but a high temperature is locally formed due to a fire around the receiver, so the RSSI value could be influenced. In this paper, the effect on RSSI is studied by analyzing the correlation between SoC internal/local temperature and RSSI.

  • This paper describes the ubiquitous home network (uHome-net) testbed and LonRF intelligent devices based on LonWorks technology. These devices consist of Neuron Chip, RF transceiver, sensor, and other peripheral components. Using LonRF devices, a home control network can be simplified and most devices can be operated on LonWorks control network. Also, Indoor Positioning System (IPS) that can serve various location based services was implemented in uHome-net. Smart Badge of IPS, that is a special LonRF device, can measure the 3D location of objects in the indoor environment. In the uHome-net testbed, remote control service, cooking help service, wireless remote metering service, baby monitoring service and security & fire prevention service were realized. This research shows the vision of the ubiquitous home network that will be emerged in the near future.

  • Since a chilled beam system can reduce the conveyance energy for air conditioning and has many advantages in terms of constructability and indoor environment, its supply has been rapidly expanding mainly in Europe. For this chilled beam system to be effectively available in Korea, a product suitable for the domestic climatic environment and HVAC system operating conditions needs to be developed. Also, domestic products need to have an edge in cost competitiveness compared to overseas products. In this study, the induction structure of a chilled beam is deduced and an analysis on the induction performance is carried out while the chilled beam system that meets domestic situations is in the process of development.

  • Purpose: Ministry of Environment statistics reveals more than 132 fire·explosion accidents in South Korea between 2014 and 2023. Among them, fire and/or explosion accidents are very impactive in their scale and consequence. This study aims to suggest a new method of reasonable way to calculate the ventilation rate of indoor facility handling hazardous chemicals based on their inflammability. Method: A new method to calculate the ventilation rate is based on the physicochemical properties of the chemicals handled, which is more reasonable compared with the current regulation based only on the floor area of the facility. Result: Considering the physicochemical properties, 178 chemicals based on their inflammability were studied and 168(94%) met the criteria for the current regulation. Some materials have been shown to require too much or too little ventilation rate. Conclusion: Through this study, a reasonable method of calculating the required ventilation rate was proposed. This should be applied to ensure the safety of workers to deal chemicals.

  • It was described the measured friction loss depending on pressure used and changes in water flow rates for a fire hose used at a fire scene on this study. As a result of actual measurement based on the result obtained by analyzing the use situation of a fire hose such as the kind, quantity, pressure used, etc. of a fire hose, the friction loss in a fire hose under the condition of using by a fire officer at a fire scene was measured as up to 56.8 %. This is much different from the equivalent length of a fire hose used to calculate the pump head in an indoor and outdoor fire-fighting facility. There is no related restrictive regulation on friction loss, there are even no data on friction loss measured by fire hose makers, and spreading a fire hose without considering friction loss at a fire scene can result in an increased length of hose used and a high-pressure water discharge from a fire engine, so this study aims to establish a standard for an equivalent length to friction loss in a fire hose and to propose a spreading method considering friction loss in a fire hose at a fire scene.

  • The increase in single-person households and the development of Home IoT technology make it important to improve the convenience of the residential environment. In addition, the increase in indoor activities caused by COVID-19 calls for the development of products to make life more convenient for single-person households. This trend of increased indoor activity has made it easier to interact with the current residential environment than before, and as a result, the need to develop technology for Home IoT is emerging. Therefore, the Home IoT system will be developed to monitor the information needed to maintain an ideal indoor environment such as temperature, humidity, and fine dust. The system will also interact with users, and propose a system that improves safety in indoor activities by equipping the home with IoT sensors for preventing safety accidents such as gas leakage and fire.
