In this paper, a minimum rotation radius was designed and fabricated to overcome the threshold so that elderly or disabled people who have difficulty moving can move and transfer safely and conveniently in a narrow room. In the indoor environment, where the sedentary culture develops, this study aimed to provide convenience for passengers with fracture diseases, geriatric diseases, and other knee and waist diseases. First, links, seats, armrests, covers, motors, batteries, chargers, controllers, etc. were attached to the frame so that they could be moved and lifted indoors. The product design and structure were designed considering the user's environment and physical characteristics, and IoT functions were added. A driving experiment was performed to confirm the operating performance of the manufactured indoor moving and lifting wheelchair. The performance tests, such as continuous running time, turning radius, maximum actuator load, maximum lift height, sound pressure level, minimum sensing distance of the driving aid sensor, interworking of server and app programs, device compatibility, and duty cycle error rate, were performed. As a result of the test, the built-in wheelchair could achieve the performance test target of each item and operate successfully.

With the advent of the 4th industrial revolution, various technologies have received much attention. Technologies related to the 4th industry include the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, artificial intelligence, virtual reality (VR), 3D printers, and robotics, and these technologies are often converged. In particular, the robotics field is combined with technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, VR, and digital twins. Accordingly, much research using robotics is being conducted, which is applied to distribution, airports, hotels, restaurants, and transportation fields. In the given situation, research on human-robot interaction is attracting attention, but it has not yet reached the level of user satisfaction. However, research on robots capable of perfect communication is steadily being conducted, and it is expected that it will be able to replace human emotional labor. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss whether the current human-robot interaction technology can be applied to business. To this end, this study first examines the trend of human-robot interaction technology. Second, we compare LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) topic modeling and BERTopic topic modeling methods. As a result, we found that the concept of human-robot interaction and basic interaction was discussed in the studies from 1992 to 2002. From 2003 to 2012, many studies on social expression were conducted, and studies related to judgment such as face detection and recognition were conducted. In the studies from 2013 to 2022, service topics such as elderly nursing, education, and autism treatment appeared, and research on social expression continued. However, it seems that it has not yet reached the level that can be applied to business. As a result of comparing LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) topic modeling and the BERTopic topic modeling method, it was confirmed that BERTopic is a superior method to LDA.

This paper proposes an IoT-based indoor autonomous driving system that applies SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) and Navigation techniques in a ROS (Robot Operating System) environment based on TurtleBot3. The proposed autonomous driving system can be applied to indoor autonomous wheelchairs and robots. In this study, the operation was verified by applying it to an indoor self-driving wheelchair. The proposed autonomous driving system provides two functions. First, indoor environment information is collected and stored, which allows the wheelchair to recognize obstacles. By performing navigation using the map created through this, the rider can move to the desired location through autonomous driving of the wheelchair. Second, it provides the ability to track and move a specific logo through image recognition using OpenCV. Through this, information services can be received from guides wearing uniforms with the organization's unique logo. The proposed system is expected to provide convenience to passengers by improving mobility, safety, and usability over existing wheelchairs.

디지털 트윈이란 현실 세계의 물리적인 사물을 컴퓨터 상에 동일하게 가상화 시키는 기술을 의미하는 것으로, 물리적 사물이나 시스템을 모델링하거나 IoT 기술에 접목되어 활용되고 있는 기술이다. 디지털 트윈 기술은 가상의 모델을 무한정 시뮬레이션을 통해 동작을 튜닝하고 환경변화에 대한 대응을 미리 실험하여 리스크를 최소화할 수 있는 장점을 지닌다. 최근 인공지능이나 기계학습에 관련된 기술들이 주목받기 시작하면서, 이와 같은 물리적인 사물의 모델링 작업을 데이터 기반으로 수행하려는 시도가 증가하고 있다. 특히, 산업현장에서 많이 활용되는 인더스트리 4.0 공장 자동화의 핵심인 협력 로봇의 디지털 트윈을 구축하기 위해서는 로봇의 동작을 인지하는 과정이 필수적으로 요구된다. 그러나 현재 협력 로봇의 동작을 인지하기 위한 시도는 미비하며, 센서 데이터를 기반으로 동작을 역으로 예측하는 기술은 더욱 그렇다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 로봇의 동작을 인지하기 위해 가정용 협력 로봇에서 전류 및 관성 데이터를 수집하기 위한 실험 환경을 구축하고, 수집한 센서 데이터를 기반으로 한 동작 예측 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 제안하는 방식은 로봇의 동작 명령어를 조인트 위치 기반으로 분류하고 전류와 위치 센서 값을 사용하여 학습을 통해 예측하는 방식이다. SVM 을 이용하여 학습한 결과, 모델의 성능은 평균적으로 정확도, 정밀도, 및 재현율이 모두 96%로 평가되었다.

'4th Industrial Revolution' is accelerating as a core part of creating new growth engines and enhancing competitiveness of businesses. The fourth industrial revolution means the transformation of society and industries that are brought by IoT (Internet of Things), big data analysis, AI (Artificial Intelligence), and robot technology. Information and Communication Technology (ICT), which is a major factor, is affecting production and manufacturing systems and as ICT technologies become more advanced, intelligent information technology is generally utilized in all areas of society, leading to hyper-connected society where new values are created and developed. ICT technology is not just about connecting devices and systems and making smart, it is about constantly converging and harmonizing new technologies in a number of fields and driving innovation and change. It is no exception to the agro-fisheries trade. In particular, ICT technology is applied to the agricultural sector, reducing labor, providing optimal environment for crops, and increasing productivity. Due to the nature of agriculture, which is a labor-intensive industry, it is predicted that the ripple effects of ICT technologies will become bigger. We are expected to use the Smart Concentration using ICT convergence technology as a useful resource for changing smart farms, and to help develop new service markets.

In this paper, we first intend to develop and introduce a smart laundry drying system for verandas that controls the drying rack by actively responding to climate change. The developed smart laundry drying system receives laundry location information through the app, then detects climate change in real time through data from the Korea Meteorological Administration such as temperature and humidity according to the location information, and automatically controls the laundry on the drying rack in case of rain. It acquires weather information through the Arduino humidity sensor and the Korea Meteorological Administration Open-API, which is used to control the switch bot by the Raspberry Pi. The user interface uses Blynk, and the switch bot controls the laundry. Our proposed system can detect bad weather and automatically control the laundry at a remote location to prevent damage to the laundry.
