Embedded system is used a lot in electric home appliances and home network equipment. However, this system is designed to operate by the system operator directly at home and operator could find out them only when he pays attention to the system in case event happens. In this paper, to improve above things, it designed to remote-control system anywhere in which internet access is possible as well as at home, and also it designed SMS(short message service) information transmission system to inform the errors to the operator when they happen. To design the system, development board(be included the Strong Arm), CDMA module, and electric door lock are used as hardware, and web browser, CGI(common gateway interface) programming, and C-language are used for implementation of software in embedded-linux platform.

This paper focuses on the stability and operability of a man-machine system considering a human operator. Some papers' main interest has been the stability only, but the operability such as fatigue is also the other main interest. In a man-machine system, feelings such as motional, visual, and kinesthetic are important since those enable operators to work easily or fatigue operators. A model of a man-machine system has been developed. Motional, visual, and kinesthetic feelings may be considered as feedbacked sensor signals. We also have quantified the degree of fatigue with respect to reference operation. This is a performance index to be optimized. Several methods are presented to optimize the degree of fatigue and the stability of the integrated system. Examples are presented to show that the usefulness of the proposed modeling method and fatigue mitigating algorithm.

A hand controller in teleoperation is a man-machine interface device that provides real-time interaction between a human operator at control site and a slave manipulator at remote site. In this paper, we examine the design issure related to various types of hand controllers in use. Emphasis is placed on bilateral hand controllers and their design parameters. We describe the design of a new 6 degree-of-freedom universal force-reflecting hand controller to control a remote Schilling Titan manipulator. This hand controller allows the operstor to maintain spatial corresponence in remote manipulative operation and fell a sense of contact with the environment. Finally, we demonstrate the graphic simulation of the hand controller to verify its design characteristics.

We propose a haptic interface algorithm for joystick operators working in remote control systems of unmanned vehicles. The haptic interface algorithm is implemented using a force-feedback joystick, which is equipped with low price DC motors without encoders. Generating specific amounts of forces on the joystick pole according to the distance between a remote controlled vehicle and obstacles, the haptic interface enables the operator to perceive the distance information by the sense of touch. For the case of no joystick operation or no obstacles in the working area, we propose an origin control algorithm, which positions the joystick pole at the origin. The origin control algorithm prevents the false movement of the remote vehicles and provides the operator with a realistic force resisting the joystick pole's movement. The experiment results obtained under various scenarios exemplify the validity of the proposed haptic interface algorithm and the origin control algorithm.

The objective of this study is to analyze the degree of correspondences among corners found in building facade imagery when the projective transformation parameters are applied to. Additionally, an appropriate corner detection operator is determined through experiments. Modeling of the shape of a building has been studied in numerous approaches using various type of data such as aerial imagery, aerial lidar scanner imagery, terrestrial imagery, and terrestrial lidar imagery. This study compared the Harris operator with FAST operator and found that the Harris operator is superior in extracting major corner points. After extracting corners using the Harris operator and assessing the degree of correspondence among corners in difference images, real corresponding corners were found to be located in the closest distance. The experiment of the projective transformation with varying corners shows that more corner control points with a good distribution enhances the accuracy of the correspondences.

The MX-13 digital multiplexer for leased line is one of the main facilities, so it is periodically monitored by the operator. Operators connect dummy terminal to the MX-13 digital multiplexer manually, and execute preventing inspection. When alarms occurred, they are manually checked by the operator. But, in order to get mere efficiency of accident prevention and monitoring facilities with rapid response to the accident symptom, and to get higher reliability from the companies who lease communication lines, we need to construct this system which is adequate to monitor IvlX-13 digital multiplexer in almost real time. We construct remote monitoring system for MX-13 digital multiplxer to meet those requirement. After constructing the system, it's possible that the local operator can manage local monitoring system to check the status of MX-13 digital multiplexers. Also, Center operator can monitor the facility which has problems, and located in the specific local areas with the use of Center monitoring system.

This paper presents a method to evaluate the performance of subpixel localization operators using target image data. Subpixel localization of edges is important to extract the precise shape of objects from images. In this study, each target image was designed to provide reference lines and edges to which the localization operators can be applied. We selected two types of moment-based operators: Gray-level Moment (GM) operator and Spatial Moment (SM) operator for comparison. The original edge localization operators with kernel size 5 are tested and their extended versions with kernel size 7 are also tested. Target images were collected with varying Camera-to-Object Distance (COD). From the target images, reference lines are estimated and edge profiles along the estimated reference lines are accumulated. Then, evaluation of the performance of edge localization operators was performed by comparing the locations calculated by each operator and by superimposing them on edge profiles. Also, enhancement of edge localization by increasing the kernel size was also quantified. The experimental result shows that the SM operator whose kernel size is 7 provides higher accuracy than other operators implemented in this study.

Failure situations occur frequently in the industry, and the existing 2D-based manual for this purpose is not intuitive to understand and it is difficult to immediately interact with maintenance experts. In this paper, we propose a technology that enables workers to perform maintenance in real time with the help of experts without restrictions in time and place based on augmented reality when a failure situation occurs at a remote location. A local virtual human-based expert diagnoses a failure situation based on an adapted panoramic image of a remote failure situation while wearing an HMD headset, and gives instructions to a remote operator. In addition, in an augmented reality (AR) environment in a remote location, for the interaction between the operator and the expert, the HMD's microphone is used to create the expert's hand as well as verbal communication. You can use to point or draw a picture. If this technology is used, it is possible to overcome the limitations of the existing 2D-based manual, and to provide assistance in performing maintenance smoothly remotely even if an expert does not directly visit a remote location.

Recently, immersive VR/AR contents have actively increased, and various services related to VR/AR allow users to experience remote places. For example, if failure situations occur frequently in factory of the remote site, mixed reality (MR) with a synthetic virtual human expert in reconstructed remote location can help immediate maintenance task with interaction between the operator and the virtual expert. In this paper, we present a technique for synthesizing the virtual human after capturing a 360-degree panorama of a remote environment, and analyze the effects to apply a method of guiding virtual human by interaction types. According to this paper, it was shown that co-presence level significantly increased when verbal, facial expression, and non-verbal animation of the virtual human was all expressed.
