In this paper, it is proposed a new approach to the development of the automatic vision system to e famine and repair the steam generator tubes at remote distance. In nuclear power plants, workers are reluctant of works in steam generator because of the high radiation environment and limited working space. It is strongly recommended that the examination and maintenance works be done by an automatic system for the protection of the operator from the radiation exposure. Digital signal processors are used it, implementing real time recognition and examination of steam generator tubes in the proposed vision system. Performance of proposed digital vision system is illustrated by experiment for similar steam generator model.

This paper describes implementation contents contents of manual/automatic complex redundancy control mothod for control of a modulation system of a Paging earth station in redundancy stracture. The existed redundancy control method usually is a automatic local control method in which the redundancy switching, including display or alarm beeping through operation of display devices or audio devices, is performed by the co-action of components or modules when the abnormal status is occurred in a modulation system. However, this method introduced in here is designed to enable use of three control modes;1) Manual mode by an operator, 2) Auto-remote mode by the Network Maagement System, through implementation of the redundancy control system composed of the redundancy control board and the redundancy switching circuit.

This paper proposes a new building segmentation method from 1m resolution imagery using an Active Contour Model, known as "Balloons". The original balloons, which was designed by Cohen(Cohen, 1991) to extract features from medical images, are modified for building segmentation. The proposed method consists of two phases. Firstly, building boundaries are extracted by balloons with a given position on buildings from an operator. Since balloons actively adjust their shapes according to the boundaries, there is no more shape limitations on detecting buildings. Secondly, buildings are segmented by connecting the corners detected from the building boundaries, because most buildings, which are man-made objects, are effectively described by polygons. The test results show that most buildings are segmented efficiently and easily. The proposed method is new and timely as 1m resolution spaceborne imagery will be available in the very near future. The proposed method can be used fur operational building segmentation from such imagery.

For protection of power system, it is a prerequisite to action characteristics of protective relay about a changing environment in power system and correcting the setting value. A substation operator always reside to correct of a relay, however there are problem of efficiency. Recently, power system operation become manless and supervision and control of incident is required anywhere, introduction of new concept as a intellectual manless protective relay is a recent trend. This paper is the web-based protective relay setting program that a manager make an analysis of operation and incident of power system through the web at a remote place corresponding recent manless of system and approach the protection relay and then can correct the error.

In this paper, we proposed an electromyography(EMG) based control method of a virtual robot arm as an adaptive human supporting system or remote control system, which consists of an shoulder control part, elbow control part, and wrist control part. The system uses four surface electrodes to acquire the EMG signal from operator. It is shown from the experiments that the EMG patterns during arm motions can be classified sufficiently by using SOM and LVQ. The interface system based on PC environment is constructed to 3-D graphic user interface(GUI) program. Experimental results show that proposed method obtains approximately 94 percent of success in classification.

The operation of RC(Rod Consolidation) technology carry out highly radiation environment. It requires remote operation and automation for efficient handling and for minimizing radiation exposure to the operator. So we investigated up and down position control of shock absorber device in RC system. To verify the research experimentally, a RC system was set up and PI control method was applied. Fuzzy control method was also tested to further improve control behavior.

Factory monitoring systems are gaining importance in wide areas of industry. Especially, there have been many efforts in implementation of vibration measurement and analysis for monitoring the status of rotating machines. In this paper, a digital signal processor (DSP) based monitoring system dedicated to the vibration monitoring and analysis on rotating machines is discussed. Vibration signals are acquired and processed for the continuous monitoring of the machine status. Time domain signals and fast Fourier transform (FFT) are used for vibration analysis. All of the signal processing procedures are done in the DSP to reduce the production and maintenance cost. The developed system could also provide remote and mobile monitoring capabilities to operator via internet connection. This paper describes the overview of the functional blocks of the implemented system. Test results based on signals from small-size single phase motors are discussed for monitoring and defect diagnosis of the machine status.

In this paper, we introduce the improved control method are communicated between a master and a slave robot in the teleoperation systems. When the master and slave robots are located in different places, time delay is unavoidable under the network environment and it is well known that the system can become unstable when even a small time delay exists in the communication channel. The time delay may cause instability in teleoperation systems especially if those systems include haptic feedback. This paper presents a control scheme based on the estimator with virtual master model in teleoperation systems over the network. As the behavior of virtual model is tracking the one of master model, the operator can control real master robot by manipulating the virtual robot. And LQG/LTR scheme was adopted for the compensation of un-modeled dynamics. The approach is based on virtual master model, which has been implemented on a robot over the network. Its performance is verified by the computer simulation and the experiment.
