In an effort to reduce weaknesses of existing laser displacement sensor-based system, a sensing device for distance and balance of mask-substrate gap using touch-type displacement sensor was suggested. The device suggested in this study is expected to solve the problems of prices and reflections, by means of a touch-type sensor. LCD exposure equipment stage system including suggested sensing device was realized to assess the characteristics of sensing the balance and gap between mask and substrate. It was verified that a touch-type displacement sensor-based device to adjust the balance and distance of mask-substrate gap suggested in this study can be applicable to LCD expose equipment in practice.

Under the situation of a fire, it is difficult for a rescue robot to use sensors such as vision sensor, ultrasonic sensor or laser distance sensor because of diffusion, refraction or block of light and sound by dense smoke. But, braille blocks that are installed for the visaully impaired at public places such as subway stations can be used as a map for autonomous mobile robot's localization and navigation. In this paper, we developed a laser sensor stan device which can detect braille blcoks in spite of dense smoke and integrated the device to the robot developed to carry out rescue mission in various hazardous disaster areas at KIST. We implemented MCL algorithm for robot's attitude estimation according to the scanned data and transformed a braille block map to a topological map and designed a nonlinear path tracking controller for autonomous navigation. From various simulations and experiments, we could verify that the developed laser sensor device and the proposed localization method are effective to autonomous tracking of braille blocks and the autonomous navigation robot system can be used for rescue under fire.

A sensor system has been developed that uses an ultrasonic sensor to detect the downhill slope on the side of a forest road and prevents a vehicle-type forest machine from rolling down a mountainside. A specular reflection of ultrasonic wave might cause severe issues in measuring distances to targets. By investigating the installation angle of the sensor to minimize the negative effects of specular reflection, the installation angle of lateral monitoring ultrasonic sensor could be determined based on the width of road shoulder. Obstacles such as small rocks or piece of log in a forest road may cause the forest machine to be overturned while the machine riding over due to excessive its posture change. It was determined that the laser sensor could be a part of a sensor system capable of specifying the location and size of small obstacles. Not only this sensor system including ultrasonic and laser sensors can issue a warning of dangerous sections to drivers in forest forwarders currently in use, but also it can be used as a driving safety sensor in autonomous forest machine or remote-control forest machine in the future.

본 연구는 레이저 도플러의 진동모드에 대한 분석연구이다. 도플러에서 생성되는 진동모드를 측정하여 각 성분을 분석하여 2차원 연구로부터 3차원을 예측 할 수 있는 성질들을 연구하고자 한다. 진동모드는 범위 탐지기(거리 측정 센서)에 의존하고 있다. 즉, 측정거리에 의해 결정되고 있으므로, 생성되는 변수들로부터 2차원에서부터 3차원에서의 진동모드가 어떻게 생성되는지, 어떤 특성의 패턴으로 나타나는지를 연구함과 더불어, 진동모드와 거리와의 관계도 아울러 연구한다.

A short distance laser range detector was developed on digital circuit. The circuit changed the analog circuit to digital circuit as possible as. The currently available laser range circuit one uses analog circuit mainly. But this ranger design targeted mass production with digital reporting function. So digital circuits replaced the analog circuit except amplifier and remained minor circuits those are hard to replace with digital circuit. The simulation shows that it is possible to make a reasonable distance measuring circuit on a digital circuit for very low price compare to analog circuit one.

In this study, a visual sensor system which can detect I-butt weld joint with height variation and includes a seam tracking algorithm was investigated. Three-dimensional position of an object can be acquired by using the method of distance measurement, i.e., an optical trigonometry which results from the spatial relations between the camera, the object and the structured light by a visible laser. Effects of laser intensity and iris number for the image quality as well as object material were investigated for the optical system design. For the image processing, a region of interest is defined from the whole image and a line image of laser is drew by using the gray level difference in the image. From the drew laser line, the weld joint can be recognized in searching the biggest point position calculated from the central difference method. Through a series of welding experiments, a good tracking performance was confirmed under GMA welding.

Conventionally, CCD camera and vision sensor using the projected pattern of light is generally used to inspect the weld bead defects. But with this method, a lot of time is needed for image preprocessing, stripe extraction and thinning, etc. In this study, laser vision sensor using the scanning beam of light is used to shorten the time required for image preprocessing. The software for deciding whether the weld bead is in proper shape or not in real time is developed. The criteria are based upon the classification of imperfections in metallic fusion welds(ISO 6520) and limits for imperfections(ISO 5817).

본 논문에서는 공작기계 등에서 필요로 하는 진직도 측정시스템을 가시광의 레이저와 CMOS 이미지센서를 사용하여 저가로 구현하였다. CMOS 이미지센서를 이용하여 광이미지를 검출하고 영상처리를 통해 진직도 변화를 계산하였다. 레이저와 이미지센서의 거리를 3m로 하여 실험한 진직도 측정에서 오차가 0.9%로 우수함을 확인하였으며, 제작된 진직도 시스템은 3D 프린터 등 다른 응용분야에서도 사용 할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

With the development of autonomous vehicle, there has been active research on advanced driver assistance system for road marking detection using vision sensor and 3D Laser scanner. However, vision sensor has the weak points that detection is difficult in situations involving severe illumination variance, such as at night, inside a tunnel or in a shaded area; and that processing time is long because of a large amount of data from both vision sensor and 3D Laser scanner. Accordingly, this paper proposes a road marking detection and classification method using single 2D Laser scanner. This method road marking detection and classification based on accumulation distance data and intensity data acquired through 2D Laser scanner. Experiments using a real autonomous vehicle in a real environment showed that calculation time decreased in comparison with 3D Laser scanner-based method, thus demonstrating the possibility of road marking type classification using single 2D Laser scanner.

This paper proposes a method of container position measurement using automatic landing system that is estimated by a laser range finder. In the most of container position measurement methods, CCD cameras or laser scanners have been used to get the source data. However those sensors are not only weak for disturbances, for examples, the light, fog, and rain, but also the system cost is high. When the spreader arrives at the goal position, it is still swung by inertia or by wind effect. In this paper, the spreader swung data have been used to find the container position. The laser range finder is equipped in the front side of spreader. It can measure distance and relative position between spreader and container. This laser range finder can be rotated as desired by a motor. And a tilt sensor is equipped on the spreader to measure spreader sway. The relative position information between the spreader and a container using the laser range finder and tilt sensor is estimated through the geometrical analysis.
