This article describes the analysis of stable grasping for multi-fingered robot. An analysis method of stable grasping, which is based on the three-dimensional acceleration convex polytope, is proposed. This method is derived from combining dynamic equations governing object motion and robot motion, force relationship and acceleration relationship between robot fingers and object's gravity center through contact condition, and constraint equations for satisfying no-slip conditions at every contact points. After mapping no-slip condition to torque space, we derived intersected region of given torque bounds and the mapped region in torque space so that the intersected region in torque space guarantees no excessive torque as well as no-slip at the contact points. The intersected region in torque space is mapped to an acceleration convex polytope corresponding to the maximum acceleration boundaries which can be exerted by the robot fingers under the given individual bounds of each joints torque and without causing slip at the contacts. As will be shown through the analysis and examples, the stable grasping depends on the joint driving torque limits, the posture and the mass of robot fingers, the configuration and the mass of an object, the grasp position, the friction coefficients between the object surface and finger end-effectors.

멀티터치 기술은 IT 기술의 발전과 함께 다양한 형태의 인식기술로 자리매김하고 있는 기술 중에 하나이다. 컴퓨터와 인간이 상화작용을 하는데 있어 필요한 기술이면서 자연스러운 인터페이스를 설계하는데도 영향을 준다. 최대한 인간과 컴퓨터가 상호작용을 통해 직관적으로 다가갈 수 있게 됨으로써 많은 사용자들이 배우지 않아도 감각적으로 기능을 구현하고, 사용할 수 있다면 편리할 것이다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 테이블 환경의 인터페이스를 설계하는데 있어 기존의 투터치 기반이 아닌 실질적인 멀티터치를 통해 모든 손가락을 사용할 수 있도록 하는데 목적을 한다. 나날이 발전하는 유비쿼터스 환경을 통해 전자칠판, 전자책상 등 가구와 IT가 접목한 산업도 활발히 이뤄지고 있기 때문에 멀티터치 기반의 인터페이스 설계는 중요할 것으로 예측된다. 멀지 않은 미래에는 교육 환경에 새로운 방식으로 첨단화를 접목시킴으로써 회의를 하기 위한 스마트 테이블뿐만이 아닌 다양한 IoT 환경에서도 영향을 미칠 것으로 기대해 본다.

The smart product market is growing year by year and is being used in many areas. There are various ways of interacting with smart products and users by inputting voice recognition, touch and finger movements. It is most important to detect an accurate hand region as a whole step to recognize hand movement. In this paper, we propose a method to detect accurate hand region in real time in various environments. A conventional method of detecting a hand region includes a method using depth information of a multi-sensor camera, a method of detecting a hand through machine learning, and a method of detecting a hand region using a color model. Among these methods, a method using a multi-sensor camera or a method using a machine learning requires a large amount of calculation and a high-performance PC is essential. Many computations are not suitable for embedded systems, and high-end PCs increase or decrease the price of smart products. The algorithm proposed in this paper detects the hand region using the color model, corrects the problems of the existing hand detection algorithm, and detects the accurate hand region based on various experimental environments.

본 논문에서는 멀티터치 추적 및 제스처 인식을 위하여 MRF기반 입자필터와 제스처 우도 측정 방법을 제안한다. 멀티터치 추적에서 자주 발생하는 문제 중 하나는 강탈 문제이며 터치 객체 추적기가 이웃 터치 객체에게 빼앗기는 현상을 가리킨다. 강탈 문제의 원인은 입자필터의 예측 입자들이 이웃 터치 객체에 가까이 갈 경우 입자의 가중치(우도)가 낮아야 하지만 이웃 객체 영향으로 높게 계산되는 오류 때문이다. 따라서 MRF를 기반으로 이웃 객체에 가까운 입자의 가중치를 낮추는 벌점함수를 정의한다. MRF가 멀티터치를 노드로 정의하고 거리가 가까운 이웃 멀티터치들을 에지로 표현한 그래프정보이므로 이웃 멀티터치들에 대한 데이터구조로 활용되기 쉽다. 또한 MRF 그래프 정보를 바탕으로 멀티터치 제스처 분석이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 MRF를 기반으로 다양한 제스처 우도를 정의할 수 있는 방법을 서술한다. 실험 결과에서는 제안 방법이 효과적으로 강탈 현상을 회피하고 멀티터치 제스처 우도를 정확히 측정할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있다.

The present study evaluated the manual dexterity and usability of conductive gloves when operating touchscreen devices in the cold. Twelve male subjects (23.3±1.5 years in age) participated in three experimental conditions: no gloves, fabric conductive and lambskin conductive gloves. Manual dexterity was tested using both Purdue Pegboard (PP) and ASTM dexterity tests at an air temperature of 5℃ and air humidity of 30%RH. Glove usability was tested through the following touchscreen tests: tap, double tap, long tab, drag, flick, and multi-touch. The results showed that manual dexterity according to the PP (2.5 mm of a pin diameter) and ASTM tests (8 mm of a stick diameter) was worse for the two glove conditions than for the no glove condition (p<.005). PP dexterity was better for the fabric glove condition than for the lambskin glove condition (p<.05); however, there was no difference in ASTM dexterity between the two glove conditions. Hand and finger skin temperatures were higher for the glove conditions than the bare hand condition (p<.05), with no differences between the two glove conditions. The touchscreen usability was the best for the no glove condition, followed by fabric gloves (p<.05). Wearing either fabric or lambskin gloves diminishes hand dexterity while maintaining hand and finger temperatures at higher levels. For improved hand dexterity in dealing with small numbers, letters on a touchscreen in cold environments, we recommend wearing fabric conductive gloves rather than lambskin conductive gloves.

In this paper, a layout-based CMOS RF model for RFIC's including the capacitance effect, the skin effect, and the proximity effect between metal lines on the Si surface is proposed for the first time for accurately predicting the RF behavior of CMOS devices. With these RF effects, the RF equivalent circuit model based on the layout of the multi-finger gate transistor is presented. The capacitances between metal lines on the Si surface are modeled with the layout. And the skin effect is modeled to the equivalent ladder circuit of metal line. The proximity effect is modeled by adding the mutual inductance between cross-coupled inductances in the ladder circuit representation. Compared to the BSIM 3v3 and other models, the proposed RF model shows better agreements with the measured data and shows well the frequency dependent behavior of devices in GHz ranges.

A radial artery pulse wave is well known as a good mans to diagnose human body condition in th field of Chinese medical science. Information about constitution as well as organs can be obtained by detecting the artery pulse wave. Recently, the information about the human body constitution may be utilized in accelerating the recovery process of the patient on the basis of comprehensive diagnosis. A radial artery pulse wave is considered as one of promising means in examining the human body constitution. Since the examination has been conducted by the feeling of finger, the diagnosis may occasionally have uncertainty or fatal error. In this paper, a new measuring system is suggested and developed to examine the pattern of a pulse wave correctly. The system is composed of four pressure vessels, pressure sensors and air supplying pumps. One of them is utilized for appropriately pressing the radial artery, three of them for detecting pressure change in several mmHg level. The detected data is shown and discussed.

In this paper, a tunable capacitor like an interdigital one is presented for low-voltage applications. In order to reduce operation voltage by enhancing fringing electric fields, two finger-patterned electrodes are vertically separated by employing a multi-layer thin film dielectric of a para-/ferro-/para-electrics without spacing between electrodes. The proposed tunable capacitor was fabricated on a quartz wafer and its characteristics are analyzed in terms of effective capacitance and tunability with a function of applied voltages, compared to the conventional interdigital capacitor (IDC). At 8V and 2 GHz, the proposed tunable capacitor shows the tunability of 18 % that is 10.3 % higher than that of the compared one.

We examined the scaling effects of a number of gate_fingers (N) and gate_widths (w) on the high-frequency characteristics of $0.1-{\mu}m$ metamorphic high-electron-mobility transistors. Functional relationships of the extracted small-signal parameters with total gate widths ($w_t$) of different N were proposed. The cut-off frequency ($f_T$) showed an almost independent relationship with $w_t$; however, the maximum frequency of oscillation ($f_{max}$) exhibited a strong functional relationship of gate-resistance ($R_g$) influenced by both N and $w_t$. A greater $w_t$ produced a higher $f_{max}$; but, to maximize $f_{max}$ at a given $w_t$, to increase N was more efficient than to increase the single gate_width.
