This study was conducted to develop an non-contact ultrasonic transducer for measurement of fruit firmness. The center frequency of non-contact ultrasonic transducer was 500 kHz. As an active element of non-contact ultrasonic transducer, the 1-3 piezoelectric composite material was selected. That material has high piezoelectric properties such as electro-mechanical coupling factor, $k_t$ and piezoelectric voltage constant, $d_{33}$ and also that material has low acoustical impedance which enables to matching the acoustical impedances between piezoelectric material and air. As a front matching material between 1-3 piezoelectric composite material and air, various kinds of paper with different thickness were tested. To control the dead-zone of the fabricated non-contact ultrasonic transducer, the backing material composed of epoxy resin and tungsten powder were made and evaluated. The fabricated non-contact ultrasonic transducer for fruit showed that the cneter frequency, bandwidth and beamwidth were approximately 480 kHz, 30 % and 12 mm, respectively. It was concluded that non-contact measurement of apple firmness would be possible by using the fabricated non-contact ultrasonic transducer.

This paper presents the experimental study of the non-contact temperature measurement for the shadow mask of cathode ray tube using InSb sensor. At present, High resolution of CRT(Cathode Ray Tube) is needed broadly; therefore, the measurement of temperature distribution of shadow mask in CRT during operation is important to analyze the thermal deformation of shadow mask. Most of the studies could not measure the temperature distribution of shadow mask precisely. We studied the temperature dis- tribution of shadow mask using InSb photo sensor for 17" cathode ray tube (CRT). Experiments using ther- mocouple are performed to validate the results of non-contact measurement. The results agree well with those results of non-contact method using InSb sensor.nsor.

This paper presents a non-contact inspection system for automatically measuring the thickness of an aircraft wing rip product. In order to conduct the inspection of the wing rib thickness automatically, a non-contact laser displacement sensor, end-effector, and a robot were selected for use. The non-contact type inspection system was evaluated by measuring the measurement deviation of the rotation direction of a C-type yoke end-effector and the transfer direction of a V-slim end-effector. In addition, the non-contact inspection system for wing rib thickness measurements was validated through thickness measurements of a web, flange, and stiffener.

본 논문은 USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) 기술 기반의 적외선 센서를 사용한 비접촉식 식물 생장 측정 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 식물 생장을 측정할 때 식물의 생장 피해를 줄이기 위하여 비접촉 센서를 사용하였다. 이 시스템은 직경, 단면적, 비대 형상과 같은 식물 생장 요소를 실시간 비접촉 방식으로 측정할 수 있다. 측정된 데이터는 센서 네트워크 기술을 사용하여 원격 서버까지 전송되고, 서버에서 저장 및 분석되며, 최종적으로 분석된 데이터는 사용자에게 제공될 수 있도록 구성하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 식물 생장 측정시스템은 측정 방식과 장치에 비접촉 적외선 센서를 사용하여 설계 및 구현을 하였다. 그리고 시스템의 성능은 필드에서 측정 실험을 통하여 검증해 보았다.

코로나19가 전 세계를 강타하면서 2021년 무관중 도쿄올림픽을 개최했다. 일부 방송사는 TV로 현장의 생생함을 전하고자 영상처리 기반 비접촉식 측정을 활용하여 실시간으로 선수들의 심박수를 보여주었다. 그러나 비접촉식 모델은 혈액순환에 따른 선수들의 얼굴 피부색 변화를 파라미터로 이용하기 때문에 자연광이나 안경 등과 같은 방해 요소로 인해 부정확할 가능성이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비접촉식 심박수 측정 모델과 접촉식 심박수 측정 모델을 방해 요소 유무에 따른 환경에서 실험하고 그에 따른 정확도를 분석한다.

Purpose : A person infected by SARS-CoV2 may present various symptoms such as fever, pain in lower respiratory tract, and pneumonia. Measuring body temperature is a simple method to screen patients. However, changes in the surrounding environment may cause errors in infrared measurement. Hence, a non-contact thermometer controls this error by setting a correction value, but it is difficult to correct it for all environments. Therefore, we investigate device error values according to changes in the surrounding environment (temperature and humidity) and propose guidelines for reliable patient detection. Methods : For this study, the temperature was measured using three types of non-contact thermometers. For accurate temperature measurement, we used a water bath kept at a constant temperature. During temperature measurement, we ensured that the temperature and humidity were maintained using a thermo-hygrometer. The conditions of the surrounding environment were changed by an air conditioner, humidifier, warmer, and dehumidifier. Results : The temperature of the water bath was measured using a non-contact thermometer kept at various distances ranging from 3~10 cm. The value measured by the non-contact thermometer was then verified using a mercury thermometer, and the difference between the measured temperatures was compared. It was observed that at normal surrounding temperature (24 ℃), there was no difference between the values when the non-contact thermometer was kept at 3 cm. However, as the distance of the non-contact thermometer was increased from the water bath, the recorded temperature was significantly different compared with that of mercury thermometer. Moreover, temperature measurements were conducted at different surrounding temperatures and the results obtained significantly varied from when the thermometer was kept at 3 cm. Additionally, it was observed that the effect on temperature decreases with an increase in humidity Conclusion : In conclusion, non-contact thermometers are lower in lower temperature and dry weather in winter.

In this paper, measurement techniques are presented to test the performance of insulation without interruption if it is difficult to measure insulation resistance. Especially, non-contact voltage phase detection techniques have been developed that can be applied in environments where it is difficult to find voltage measurement locations such as component receptors. The performance verification of the non-interrupting insulation resistance measuring devices has been tested against existing products using standard calibration equipment and test jigs. The validation confirmed performance within 2 % for direct contact type and within 10 % for non-contact type. In addition, the procedure to make continuous insulation test using the equipment was proposed.

This paper deals wi th the establishment of the method of non-contact surface roughness measurement by developed system. One of the most Important factor of determinating quality of a produced manufacture is surface roughness The tendency of manufacturing method is changing from small amount manufactures / high-volume production to large amount manufactures / low volume production, and the study of reducing time for surface roughness measurement has been actively investigated The non-contact surface roughness method by using laser which is different from contact method has been only used to the polished surface, so new surface roughness measurement method was adopted by virtue of Fraunhofer diffraction in the periodic surface for on-the-machine. in this paper, we establish the method of non-contact surface roughness measurement which can reduce measuring time in the periodic surface

A quantitative non-contact multi-point measurement system is proposed to the measurement of three-dimensional movement of floating vessels by using digital image processing. The instantaneous three-dimensional movement of a floating structure which is floating in a small water tank is measured by this system and its three-dimensional movement is reconstructed by the measurement results. The validity of this system is verified by position identification for spatially distributed known positional values of basic landmarks set for the camera calibration. It is expected that this system is applicable to the non-contact measurement for an unsteady physical phenomenon especially for the measurement of three-dimensional movement of floating vessels in the laboratory model test.

Conventional measurement methods for non-destructive testing(NDT) in nuclear power plants and other industrial plants have been performed as the methods of contact with objects to be inspect, but those methods have been taken relatively much time to be inspected. Holographic interferometry which is a non-contact optical measurement method using a coherent light can overcome these demerit, and also has an advantage that the quantitative measurement of small deformation for large areas can be accomplished at a time with high precision. In this paper the comparisons of the experimental results form holographic interferometry with those from the finite element method(FEM) and the analytical solutions of the elastic equation are discussed.
