We propose laser scanner sensor system based walking pattern and tracking method of multiple human. This system uses laser scanners sensors and is applicable to wide and crowded area such as hospital and medical care center. The primary objective of this research is to promote the development of robust, repeatable and transferable software for security system that can automatically detect, track and follow people in public area. We developed the method of human identification for this system. Our method is following: 1. Best-walking pattern data are obtained by the help of human position and direction data obtained by laser scanners. 2. Human identification is conducted by calculating the correlation between the step length of walking human. It becomes possible to conduct human identification even in crowded scenes by estimating the movements of waling human' feet are periodic. In the experiment in the station, some effectiveness of this method became clear.

To detect targets for autonomous navigation of unmanned ground vehicle, mounted sensors are required to work all-weather condition. In this point of view, the FMCW radar is quietly appropriate. In this paper, we present development results of target signal simulator for multi-beam type FMCW radar. A target signal simulator make pseudo target signals which simulates multiple moving targets. And we describe how to make hit information for each target in multi-beam type radar. The developed methods are utilized for target tracking device. Moreover it can be applied to similar target signal simulator.

Diesel engines have the advantages of good fuel efficiency and low emissions. Therefore, car makers have been developed various kinds of diesel engine management system to clean up emissions while improving fuel efficiency. One of them is the common rail system. In the common rail system, diesel fuel is injected into the combustion chamber at ultra high pressures up to 1,800 bar to ensure more complete combustion for cleaner exhaust gas, and highly precise multiple injection reduces NOx emission, combustion noise and vibration. Generally speaking, common rail system consists of booster pump, high pressure pump, common rail, injectors, control valves, and sensors. The high pressure pump receives low pressure fuel from the booster pump and supply high pressure fuel to injectors through the high pressure common injection rail. Therefore, high pressure pump has an important role in common rail system. In this paper, we have investigated the performance of high pressure pump of common rail system.

In this paper, we newly developed an omnidirectional receiver for visible light communication (VLC). The omnidirectional receiver was composed of a flexible solar cell attached on a cylindrical surface with its axis in vertical direction. The solar cell surface was symmetrical and showed an almost uniform receiving pattern in a horizontal plane. The maximum difference in a receiving pattern was within 7% of its peak value in a horizontal plane. This configuration is very easy to fabricate and useful in constructing wireless sensor networks in which one receiver needs to detect multiple LED signals in different directions.

The human-following is one of the significant procedure in human-friendly navigation of mobile robots. There are many approaches of human-following technology. Many approaches have adopted various multiple sensors such as vision system and Laser Range Finder (LRF). In this paper, we propose detection and tracking approaches for human legs by the use of a single LRF. We extract four simple attributes of human legs. To define the boundary of extracted attributes mathematically, we used a Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) scheme. We establish an efficient leg-tracking scheme by exploiting a human walking model to achieve robust tracking under occlusions. The proposed approaches were successfully verified through various experiments.

This paper presents a design of an optimized implantable biotelemetry system and the fabrication of custom CMOS LSI for implementing this system. The internal circuits of this system are fabricated on a single silicon chip with a size of $4{\times}5mm^2$. This LSI is designed and fabricated not only to get as small size and low power dissipation as possible, but also to have multiple function. Its main functions are to select one of implanted sensors and to accomplish ON - OFF power switching of an implanted battery by receiving appropriate Command signals and control signals fran external circuits. The internal system which was assembled on a bread-board using fabricated LSI chip is confirmed to work as designed. The total power dissipation of this interal system was $10.12{\mu}W$.

This paper introduces the development of a range sensor based integrated navigation system for a multi-functional indoor service robot, called PSR (Public Service Robot System). The proposed navigation system includes hardware integration for sensors and actuators, the development of crucial navigation algorithms like mapping, localization, and path planning, and planning scheme such as error/fault handling. Major advantages of the proposed system are as follows: 1) A range sensor based generalized navigation system. 2) No need for the modification of environments. 3) Intelligent navigation-related components. 4) Framework supporting the selection of multiple behaviors and error/fault handling schemes. Experimental results are presented in order to show the feasibility of the proposed navigation system. The result of this research has been successfully applied to our three service robots in a variety of task domains including a delivery, a patrol, a guide, and a floor cleaning task.

Bender element is made of connecting two piezoelectric elements which have different polarities from each other, and is a kind of sensors which can be used either way as a source making elastic wave or a receiver. Elastic waves generated by stimulating the bender elements can be decomposed to P-wave and S-wave propagation. Numerical and expeimental studies are conducted, and results show that multiple measurements are recommended to determine wave arrivals from the received signals.

Advances in sensors, actuators, and computers and developments In information systems offer unprecedented opportunities to implement highly ambitious automation, control and decision strategies. There are also new challenges and demands for control and automation in modern industrial practices. There is a growing need for an active participation from the information systems in industrial, manufacturing and process industry environments because currently there are many control problems. This paper provides pattern recognition to the monitoring system for solvent manufacturing process and shows performance in real-time response with multiple input signals. Data is teamed by a multilayer feedforward network trained by error-backpropagation. The two kinds of test results show that the trained network has the ability to show the current system status with different input data sets.

In this paper, as an ideal test bed for studies on multi-agent system, the multiple micro robot soccer playing system is introduced at first. The construction of such experimental system has involved lots of kinds of challenges such as sensors fusing, robot designing, vision processing, motion controlling, and especially the cooperation planning of those robots. So in this paper we want to stress emphasis on how to evolve the system automatically based on the model of behavior-based learning in multi-agent domain. At first we present such model in common sense and then apply it to the realistic experimental system . At last we will give some results showing that the proposed approach is feasi...
