  • An apparatus for detecting remote real-time uranium concentration using an optrode was developed. An optrode to detect uranium fluorescence as remote real-time control was designed. Fluorescence intensity at time 2ero was derived by the fluorescence signal processing and the algorithm to exclude the quenching effect of various quenchers and temperature fluctuations. This apparatus employing the above deriving method and the optrode has an error range within 6% in spite of serious fluorescence lifetime changes due to the quenching effect and temperature fluctuations. The detection limit is 0.06 ppm and the linearity is excellent between 0.06 ppm and 2 ppm on the aqueous uranium solution.

  • The frequency and risk of disasters are increasing due to environmental and social factors. In order to respond effectively to disasters that occur unexpectedly, it is very important to quickly obtain up-to-date information about target area. It is possible to intuitively judge the situation about the area through the image-map generated at high speed, so that it can cope with disaster quickly and effectively. In this study, we propose an image-map generation and visualization system from UAV images for real-time disaster monitoring. The proposed system consists of aerial segment and ground segment. In the aerial segment, the UAV system acquires the sensory data from digital camera and GPS/IMU sensor. Communication module transmits it to the ground server in real time. In the ground segment, the transmitted sensor data are processed to generate image-maps and the image-maps are visualized on the geo-portal. We conducted experiment to check the accuracy of the image-map using the system. Check points were obtained through ground survey in the data acquisition area. When calculating the difference between adjacent image maps, the relative accuracy was 1.58 m. We confirmed the absolute accuracy of the image map for the position measured from the individual image map. It is confirmed that the map is matched to the existing map with an absolute accuracy of 0.75 m. We confirmed the processing time of each step until the visualization of the image-map. When the image-map was generated with GSD 10 cm, it took 1.67 seconds to visualize. It is expected that the proposed system can be applied to real - time monitoring for disaster response.

Korean Jouranl of Sport Biomechanics, Vol. 18, No. 2, pp. 59-64, 2008. This study was conducted to study the real-time sports activity classification and monitoring using single waist mounted tri-axial accelerometer. This monitoring system detects events of sports activities such as walking, running, cycling, transitions between movements, resting and emergency event of falls. Accelerometer module was developed small and easily attachable on waist using wireless communication system which does not constrain sports activities. The sensor signal was transferred to PC and each movement pattern was classified using the developed algorithm in real-time environment. To evaluate proposed algorithm, experiment was performed with several sports activities such as walking, running, cycling movement for 100sec each and falls, transition movements(sit to stand, lie to stand, stand to sit, lie to sit, stand to lie and sit to lie) for 20 times each with 5 healthy subjects. The results showed that successful detection rate of the system for all activities was 95.4%. In this study, through sports activity monitoring. it was possible to classify accurate sports activities and to notify emergency event such as falls. For further study, the accurate energy consumption algorithm for each sports activity is under development.

  • This paper discusses system for real-time monitoring of patient waiting time in hospitals based on open-source platform. It is necessary to make use of open-source projects to develop a high-performance stream processing system, which analyzes and processes stream data in real time, with less cost. The Hadoop ecosystem is a well-known big data processing platform consisting of numerous open-source subprojects. This paper first defines several requirements for the monitoring system, and selects a few projects from the Hadoop ecosystem that are suited to meet the requirements. Then, the paper proposes system architecture and a detailed module design using Apache Spark, Apache Kafka, and so on. The proposed system can reduce development costs by using open-source projects and by acquiring data from legacy hospital information system. High-performance and fault-tolerance of the system can also be achieved through distributed processing.

  • In this paper, The monitoring system for TV advertisement is implemented using video watermark. The functions of the advertisement monitoring system are monitoring the time, length, and index of the on-air advertisement, saving the log data, and reporting the monitoring result. The performance of the video watermark used in this paper is tested for TV advertisement monitoring. This test includes LAB test and field test. LAB test is done in laboratory environment and field test in actually broadcasting environment. LAB test includes PSNR, distortion measure in image, and the watermark detection rate in the various attack environment such as AD/DA(analog to digital and digital to analog) conversion, noise addition, and MPEG compression. The result of LAB test is good for the TV advertisement monitoring. KOBACO and SBS are participated in the field test. The watermark detection rate is 100% in both the real-time processing and the saved the processing. The average deviation of the watermark detection time is 0.2 second, which is good because the permissible average error is 0.5 second.
