In this study, a real-time surveillance system using Internet of Things technology is proposed for vaccine cold chains. This system fully visualizes vaccine transport and storage. It comprises a 4G gateway module, lowpower and low-cost wireless temperature and humidity collection module (WTHCM), cloud service software platform, and phone app. The WTHCM is installed in freezers or truck-mounted cold chain cabinets to collect the temperature and humidity information of the vaccine storage environment. It then transmits the collected data to a gateway module in the radiofrequency_physical layer (RF_PHY). The RF_PHY is an interface for calling the bottom 2.4-GHz transceiver, which can realize a more flexible communication mode. The gateway module can simultaneously receive data from multiple acquisition terminals, process the received data depending on the protocol, and transmit the collated data to the cloud server platform via 4G or Wi-Fi. The cloud server platform primarily provides data storage, chart views, short-message warnings, and other functions. The phone app is designed to help users view and print temperature and humidity data concerning the transportation and storage of vaccines anytime and anywhere. Thus, this system provides a new vaccine management model for ensuring the safety and reliability of vaccines to a greater extent.

This paper presents the design procedure for soccer-playing rovots based on the centralized approach. Using a fast vision system, we obtain the configuration of each robot and then the host computer computes the desired motion and commands each robot directly via RF communication. The robot soccer game has a lot of problems such as obstacle avoidance, coordination between robots, dribbling the ball, and so on. To implement such motions, we think that the centralized approach seems to be more powerful than the distributed approach. We describe the technical tips for developing the robots in detail here and explain our strategy for getting the scores.

Generally RF AGC (Roll Force Automatic Gauge Control) controls the roll gap using the variation of rolling force caused by the roll eccentricity and the entry thickness of material, but RE AGC takes the bad effect of the roll eccentricity. The Feed-forward (FF) AGC method, which controls the next stand roll gap by the estimation of the thickness variation due to skid mark is needed to supplement the shortage of RF AGC. In this paper, an adaptive filtering method which takes account of the kind of material, the final objective thickness and the rolling speed is proposed to predict skid mark thickness variation. In addition, an improved estimation method of control point using a speedometer and looper angle is suggested. Via on line test, the performance improvement of the suggested FF AGC method is verified.

In the hot rolling process, the RF AGC (Roll Force Auto Gauge Control) is used to control the roll gap to reduce the variation of rolling force caused by the roll eccentricity and the variation of material thickness. However the effect of the roll eccentricity cannot be distinguished. To eliminate the effect of the roll eccentricity, the roll eccentricity estimation is needed to supplement some drawbacks of RF AGC. In this paper, an ALE(Adaptive Line Enhancer) that extracts the rolling force variation due to the roll eccentricity is suggested. We also provide an algorithm that enhances the convergence time of roll eccentricity estimation. The performance improvement of the Suggested algorithm is shown via simulations.

Several falling-sensing terminals have been developed which are able to detect the fall/upset accident of the elderly and transmit the collapsing signals to the administrative server via RF communication using 400MHz bandwidth. Supposing there might be no communication problem within a sanatorium, just single terminal without relay function had been made as a prototype in the first stage of development. However some communication problems have discovered at the coner of the floor apart from the other floor diagonally in the same building. Same kind of problems have been happened in the area behind a steel fence or a car. To solve these kinds of communication problems, we have developed several terminals and added up relay function to them. In this paper we represented that the success ratio of the communication has been improved by using relay function among several terminals.

Titanium oxide films and powders are attached onto carbon cloths via RF reactive sputtering and an epoxy resin mixture, respectively. $TiO_2$/carbon composite materials were used to investigate the photoelectrochemical degradation of perchlorate ions in water. The energy band gaps of the RF-sputtered $TiO_2$ thin films ranged from 3.35-3.44 eV. A photocurrent of the powdered $TiO_2$ as illuminated by ultra-violet light for 30 min. was $2.79\;mA/cm^2$. Perchlorate ions in water were shown to be degradable by a UV-illuminated $TiO_2$ powder/carbon/Nafion/carbon composite.

An autonomous stair robot recognizing the stair, and climbing up and down the stair by utilizing a robot vision, photo sensors, and appropriate climbing algorithm is introduced. Four arms associated with four wheels make the robot climb up and down more safely and faster than a simple track typed robot. The robot can adjust wheel base according to the stair width, hence it can adopt to a variable width stair with different algorithms in climbing up and down. The command and image data acquired from the robot are transferred to the main computer through RF wireless modules, and the data are delivered to a remote computer via a network communication through a proper data compression, thus, the real time image monitoring is implemented effectively.

We sputtered $TiN_x$ (titanium nitride) thin films on silicon substrates using ultra high vacuum RF magnetron sputtering method, and measured spectra of ellipsometry angles ${\Delta}$ and ${\Psi}$ in the photon-energy range of 1.5-5.0 eV using a variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometer. The optical constants, refractive index and extinction coefficient of the $TiN_x$ films were determined via the dispersion parameters extracted from the curve-fitting process based on Drude+Lorentz oscillator dispersion function. The reliability of determined optical constants were verified through the comparison of between simulated reflectance and reflectance spectra measured using a spectrophotometer.
