The mine-detection system, which is one of the various mission equipments for Ground Vehicle System, detects mine under the ground. The mine detection sensors comprised of Metal Detection(MD) sensor and Ground Penetration Radar(GPR) are attached on the end of the multi-DOF manipulator. The manipulator moves the sensor to sweep mine areas keeping the pre-determined distance between the sensor and ground to enhance mine detection performance. The detection system can be operated automatically, semi-automatically and manually. When the detection system is operated automatically, the sensor should avoid collisions with unexpected obstacles which may exist on the ground. Two types of ultra-sonic sensors were developed for the mine detection sensor system to keep the appropriate gap between sensor and the ground to avoid the obstacles. Also, mine place marking device was developed.

This paper shows an effective scanning trajectory for a mine detection device that is one of the mission equipments of unmanned ground vehicle. The mine detection device is composed of a mine-detection sensor, and a 4 DOF manipulator enabling sensor position control. There are three modes that manage the mine detection device: passive, semi-automatic, and automatic. The automatic mode is used the most. This paper suggests a scanning method that makes shape of 8. This method prevents missing target area and enhances scanning speed when the mine detection device scans the ground surface in automatic mode. The suggested method is verified by simulations and experiments.

The vehicle-mounted mine detection system with large detection sensor modules can search wide areas with a fast detection speed. To mount the heavy mine detectors on a manned or unmanned vehicle, it is necessary to design the detector driving mechanism and control system based on the considerations driven from the characteristic analysis and the operation requirements of the detection system. Furthermore, while operating the mine detector mounted on a mobile vehicle, it is significant to keep the height from the ground to sensors within a certain distance in order to get a qualified detection performance. As the mine detection sensor, we used ground penetrating radar widely used to geotechnical exploration, mine detection and etc. In this paper, we introduce a driving mechanism through analyzing the characteristics of the vehicle-mounted mine detection system. We also suggest a method to automatically control the distance between the ground and GPR by utilizing the GPR output values, used to detect mines at the same time.

현재 군에서 운용하고 있는 지뢰탐지 방법은 다양하나 통상 야전에서는 육안탐지, 탐침에 의한 탐지, 탐지기에 의한 탐지, 기타탐지 방법 등으로 지뢰를 탐지하며, 탐지기에 의한 탐지방법은 GPR센서를 이용한 탐지기로 금속탐지는 가능하나 비금속탐지가 곤란하며, 탐지를 실시한 곳과 실시하지 않은 지역을 구분할 수 없고, 많은 인력과 시간이 낭비되는 문제점이 있으며, 사용자가 센서를 일정한 속도로 움직이지 않거나, 너무 빨리 움직이는 경우 지뢰를 정확히 탐지하기가 곤란하다. 따라서 이러한 단방향 초음파 센싱 신호를 이용한 지뢰탐지 오류의 문제점을 개선하고자 Human Body 안테나부, 메인마이크로프로세서 유닛부, 스마트안경부, 바디장착형 LCD모니터부, 무선데이터 송수신부, 벨트형 전원공급부, 블랙박스 카메라부, 보안통신 헤드셋부로 구성한 스마트 웨어러블 지뢰탐지 장치를 연구하였다. 이 연구결과를 토대로 IoT(Internet of Things) 기반으로도 지하에 있는 지뢰를 탐지할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하기 위해 실험을 진행하고자 한다. 본 논문은 서론, 실험환경 구성, 시뮬레이션 분석, 결론 순으로 구성 하였으며, 서론에서는 지뢰, 지뢰 탐지기, 연구진행 등 연구내용을 소개 하고, 실험 환경 구성은 야전과 동일한 환경과 매설방법을 기초로 M14폭풍형 대인지뢰, M16A1파편형 대인지뢰, M15 및 M19대전차 지뢰, 지뢰와 유사한 플라스틱 병, 알루미늄 캔으로 구성하였으며, 시뮬레이션 분석은 지뢰탐지 장치 구현 성능을 분석하기 위해 매트랩을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 진행하여, IoT 신호를 생성 및 전송하고, 각각의 수신된 신호를 분석하여 지뢰의 탐지 성능을 확인한 후 IoT 기반 지뢰탐지 알고리즘 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 검증하여 지하에 있는 지뢰를 탐지할 수 있는 가능성을 IoT기반으로 입증하려고 한다.

In this study, two important requirements for the home production of a robot to detect and remove improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are presented in terms of the total cost for robot system development and the performance improvement of the mine detection technology. Firstly, cost analyses were performed in order to provide a reasonable solution following an engineering estimate method. As a result, the total cost for a mass production system without the mine detection system was estimated to be approximately 396 million won. For the case including the mine detection system, the total cost was estimated to be approximately 411 million won, in which labor costs and overhead charges were slightly increased and the material costs for the mine detection system were negligible. Secondly, a method for fabricating the carbon nanotube (CNT) based gas detection sensor was studied. The detection electrodes were formed by a photolithography process using a photosensitive CNT paste. As a result, this method was shown to be a scalable and expandable technology for producing excellent mine detection sensors. In particular, it was found that surface treatments by using adhesive taping or ion beam bombardment methods are effective for exposing the CNTs to the ambient air environment. Fowler-Nordheim (F-N) plots were obtained from the electron-emission characteristics of the surface treated CNT paste. The F-N plot suggests that sufficient electrons are available for transport between CNT surfaces and chemical molecules, which will make an effective chemiresistive sensor for the advanced IED detection system.

While the United Nations UN) agencies work to restrict the manufacture, sale, and use of land-mines worldwide, a massive clean-up effort is needed to find and destroy the estimated 100 million land-mines still buried around the world. Land-mines left behind from wars worldwide are one of the past century＇s main unsolved problems of war and remain the focus of humanitarian land-mine detection and removal primarily in Europe, Africa, Asia and Central and South America. For example, approximately 1 million anti-personnel mines and other various kinds which have been buried in the 249.4 km (155 miles) demilitarized zone (DMZ) of the Korean peninsular should be completely removed in historical process of the peaceful unification between South and North Korea. In this regard, the current trends of technologies linked to land-mine detection systems are surveyed.

The wire rope is an indispensable production machinery in coal mines. It is the main force-bearing equipment of the underground traction system. Accurate detection of wire rope defects and positions exerts an exceedingly crucial role in safe production. The existing defect detection solutions exhibit some deficiencies pertaining to the flexibility, accuracy and real-time performance of wire rope defect detection. To solve the aforementioned problems, this study utilizes the camera to sample the wire rope before the well entry, and proposes an object based on YOLOv5. The surface small-defect detection model realizes the accurate detection of small defects outside the wire rope. The transfer learning method is also introduced to enhance the model accuracy of small sample training. Herein, the enhanced YOLOv5 algorithm effectively enhances the accuracy of target detection and solves the defect detection problem of wire rope utilized in mine, and somewhat avoids accidents occasioned by wire rope damage. After a large number of experiments, it is revealed that in the task of wire rope defect detection, the average correctness rate and the average accuracy rate of the model are significantly enhanced with those before the modification, and that the detection speed can be maintained at a real-time level.

본 연구에서는 광산안전관리를 위한 충돌방지시스템의 개발 현황과 적용사례를 분석하였다. 광업 선진국인 미국과 호주에서 사용하는 충돌방지시스템의 용어를 정의하고 이용되는 센서 기술들을 비교하였다. 또한 해외의 광산 회사들이 개발한 충돌방지시스템인 $MineAlert^{TM}$ Collision Awareness System, Cat $MineStar^{TM}$, Intelligent Proximity Detection 기술 등에 대해 소개하였다. 국내 광업 분야에서는 충돌방지시스템을 개발한 사례가 없었으며 건설과 철도 분야에서 이와 유사한 개념의 시스템을 확인할 수 있었다. 충돌방지시스템을 도입하면 광산에서 발생할 수 있는 충돌사고를 방지하여 작업자의 안전을 개선시킬 수 있을 것이며, 해외의 개발 사례를 통해 국내 광산 환경에 적합한 센서 기술을 개발하고 적용하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
