The weld seam tracking system for arc welding process uses various kinds of sensors such as arc sensor, vision sensor, laser displacement and so on. Among the variety of sensors available, electro-magnetic sensor is one of the most useful methods especially in sheet metal butt-joint arc welding, primarily because it is hardly affected by the intense arc light and fume generated during the welding process, and also by the surface condition of weldments. In this study, a dual-electromagnetic sensor, which utilizes the induced current variation in the sensing coil due to the eddy current variation of the metal near the sensor, was developed for arc welding of sheet metal butt-joints. The dual-electromagnetic sensor thus detects the offset displacement of weld line from the center of sensor head even though there's no clearance in the joint. A set of design variables of the sensor were determined for the maximum sensing capability through the repeated experiments. Seam tracking is performed by correcting the position of sensor to the amount of offset displacement every sampling period. From the experimental results, the developed sensor showed the excellent capability of weld seam detection when the sensor to workpiece distance is near less than 5 mm, and it was revealed that the system has excellent seam tracking ability for the butt-joint of sheet metal.

In this paper, High Frequency PD measuring system using directional coupler sensors(DCS) is introduced. Especially the principles of the DCS and characteristics of the system are introduced. Evaluation of this system was carried by an adoption to the test circuit of 345kV XLPE $2000mm^2$ cable and EB-A, EB-G, PIJ, PNJ. In the test a PD measurement was carried out without shieldroom and under the on-line state and in the high frequency range at the remote site from the test object. The test result was satisfactory and this is due to the use of DCS and using a high frequency range and specific filter for radio and TV signal and low pass. This system can be used to the test of a new construction of cable and accessories and measuring of long-term deterioration of cable and accessories. And this will bring us the reliability of a power transmission.

The aerial support air sculptures currently exhibited in indoor spaces are similar to simple ad balloons, using multiple rope strands. Users now want more advanced unfixed sculptures, and hope these will develop into buoyant sculptures that can maintain the attitudes that users want on their own. This study investigated an attitude control system for unfixed levitation sculptures that can levitate with no rope and continuously maintain a certain attitude at a height specified by the user. To facilitate levitation, the exterior part of the sculpture was made of lightweight fibers, and the interior part was filled with helium gas. The controller was composed of a microprocessor of the dsPIC30F line from microchip, gyro, acceleration, and earth magnetic field sensors, and a highly efficient brushless DC (BLDC) electric motor. The attitude and position control system requires scheduling considering the trajectories of the sculpture and the control system, because the roles of the overall components are more important than those of a single controller. Furthermore, the system was designed like a fusion system that is expanded and controlled as a total controller, because it is interconnected with various sensors. The attitude control system of buoyant sculptures was implemented in this study, such that it can actively cope with the position, direction, stopping, and time aspects. The system performance was then evaluated.

This paper presents characteristics of surface acoustic wave (SAW) gas sensor for detecting volatile gases such as ethanol gas by measuring the phase shift of output signal. A delay-line with a center frequency of 400 MHz was fabricated on $128^{\circ}$ Y-Z $LiNbO_{3}$ substrates. Experimental results, which showed the phase change of the output signal under the absorption of volatile gas on sensor surface, were presented. The sensitivities of SAW delay lines coated with polyurethane films were greatly increased compared to those for uncoated devices. This SAW gas sensor system may be well suited for a high sensitivity electronic nose system.

Twenty four types of thermopile for micro spectrometer infrared sensors were fabricated on low-stress Si3N4 membranes with $l.2{\mu}m-thickness$ using MEMS technology. Thermopile were designed and fabricated for optimum conditions by five parameters of thermocouple numbers $(16\sim48)$, thermocouple line widths $(10{\mu}m-25{\mu}m)$, thermocouple lengths $(100{\mu}m-500{\mu}m)$, membrane areas $(12mm2\sim2.52mm2)$ and junction areas $(150{\mu}m2\sim750{\mu}m2)$, respectively. It was thought that measurement results could be used for thermopile infrared sensors optimum structure for micro spectrometers.

We propose the optical sensor network using optical CDMA with bipolar receiver and modified Pseudorandom Noise codes which are widely used in the wireless communication network. We numerically analyze the performances in the optical sensor network. In the proposed network, multiple access interferences between two sensors are suppressed by performing synchronization between the optical encoder and the optical decoder and adjusting the delay times of optical delay lines. Numerical simulations confirm that the performance can be acquired by suppressing the beat noise among optical signals as the number of sensors increases.
