  • As times develop, information becomes more diverse and methods of obtaining it become more diverse. About 80% of the amount of information gained in life is acquired through the visual sense. However, visually impaired people have limited ability to interpret visual materials. That's why Braille, a text for the blind, appeared. However, the Braille decoding rate of the blind is only 5%, and as the demand of the blind who want various forms of platforms or materials increases over time, development and product production for the blind are taking place. An example of product production is braille books, which seem to have more disadvantages than advantages, and unlike non-disabled people, it is true that access to information is still very difficult. In this paper, we designed a CNN-based Braille conversion and voice output device to make it easier for visually impaired people to obtain information than conventional methods. The device aims to improve the quality of life by allowing books, text images, or handwritten images that are not made in Braille to be converted into Braille through camera recognition, and designing a function that can be converted into voice according to the needs of the blind.

  • Recently increasing usage of smartphones makes the Internet of Things (IoT) a leading technology that can collect and share data through sensor networks and wireless communication such as low-power Bluetooth (BLE). BLE-based application can provide operators more precise information on Automatic Door system by remotely diagnosing the system faults through wireless sensor networks and sensors around the Automatic Door. In this paper, a smart device with extended BLE module is implemented which can monitor and Control the system states and faults remotely without on-site diagnostic. while maintaining system integrity so that increase efficiency of time and costs for system management. We can use the results of this research as a basis in evaluating reliability of data between devices, extending communication module in Controller of obsolete Door systems, and establishing centralized monitoring systems in near future with multi-channel Door Controls.

  • Today's payment systems are becoming unmanned and changing to a way of paying with kiosks. This has the advantage of convenient payment because consumers can select a menu and specify the number of products to be purchased with just a touch of the screen. However, from the point of view of system security, the actual kiosk system has various vulnerabilities. This can hijack the administrator account, gain system privileges, and perform malicious actions. In addition, it is exposed to a number of security threats, such as the possibility of wasting unnecessary resources by abnormally increasing the number of payments, and causing the device to fail to operate normally. Therefore, in this paper, if any node of a participant in the solana blockchain approves an incorrect fork, the stake of the voting nodes is deleted. Also, since all participants can see the transaction history due to the nature of the block chain, I intend to write a thesis on a system that improves the vulnerability of kiosk payments by separating the access rights through the private blockchain.

  • Recently the massive amount of data has been generated because of the number of edge devices increases. And especially, the number of raw unstructured HTML documents has been increased. Therefore, MRC(Machine Reading Comprehension) in which a natural language processing model finds the important information within an HTML document is becoming more important. In this paper, we propose HTDE(HTML Tag Depth Embedding Method), which allows the BERT to train the depth of the HTML document structure. HTDE makes a tag stack from the HTML document for each input token in the BERT and then extracts the depth information. After that, we add a HTML embedding layer that takes the depth of the token as input to the step of input embedding of BERT. Since tokenization using HTDE identifies the HTML document structures through the relationship of surrounding tokens, HTDE improves the accuracy of BERT for HTML documents. Finally, we demonstrated that the proposed idea showing the higher accuracy compared than the accuracy using the conventional embedding of BERT.

  • Users may experience a sub-type of motion sickness, called cybersickness, when interacting with virtual reality (VR) applications in the state of wearing head mounted display (HMD) devices. Although the root cause of cybersickness is still unclear, it is believed to result from a sensory mismatch between visual and vestibular systems. However, there is a lack of studies developing data collection and analysis systems to measure cybersickness. In this paper, therefore, a system is designed that collects electroencephalography (EEG) and physiological data from a user wearing a VR HMD device through an internet of things (IoT) platform and decides whether a user experiences a symptom of cybersickness, namely dizziness, or not by using a decision threshold. Experimental results showed that the proposed system achieved about 92% accuracy of a dizziness detection when considering 14 participants.

  • A side-channel attack is a method of attacking a cipher based on physical information of a cryptographic device. The masking method, which is a typical method overcoming this attack, is a method of calculating an arbitrary masking value at the round intermediate value through rounds. Thus, it is difficult to guess the intermediate value by the side-channel attack, but if the masking operation is applied to all rounds of the encryption algorithm, the encryption process may become overloaded. Therefore, it is practical to use a reduced-round masking technique that applies a masking technique to only a part of the cipher for lightweight equipment such as Internet of Things(IoT) and wearable devices. In this paper, we describe a Hamming weight filtering for SIMON family with reduced-round masking technique and it is shown that first round key recovery is possible through actual programming.

  • The paper proposed the method of calculating the latest approach angle that can reliably recognize multiple laser images even with the change in separation distance between screen and laser launch device. This method recognizes the angle of the laser pattern angle by using the distance of the laser pattern angle, and the angle extraction of the laser detects the laser image from the acquired image using the labeling algorithm, and performs the huff conversion to extract the angle of the straight line. The distance of the reference angle and angle of the laser image extracted using Euclidean distance among similarity scales is calculated, and the furnace is recognized using the calculated distance result value. Experiments with changing the separation distance to "200 cm to 400 cm" showed 100% recognition of individual strands at all separation distances. The experiment confirmed the reliability of the proposed method.
