IT기술과 지능을 로봇에 융합시킴으로써, 로봇이 스스로 사용자를 인식하여 사용자가 원하는 일을 하고 원하는 정보를 검색해 주는 인간 중심적 서비스를 제공하는 것이 지능형 로봇의 궁극적인 목표이다. 사용자가 원하는 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 다양한 의사소통 채널을 통해 인간과 로봇, 두 개체간의 상호작용 및 의사소통 연결 고리를 형성하는 인간-로봇 상호작용(HRI: Human-Robot Interaction)기술 개발이 반드시 필요하다. HRI 기술에는 얼굴 인식, 음성 인식, 제스처 인식 및 감정 인식 등 로봇이 인간의 의사표시를 인식하기 위한 기술들이 있다. 본고에서는 지능형 로봇과 로봇의 시각 지능화의 가장 핵심적인 기능인 얼굴 인식의 융합 기술 동향에 대해서 응용 서비스 및 표준화 이슈를 중심으로 살펴보고자 한다.

What is the socio-cultural meaning of the 1980s' Korean robot animations? What is the periodical backgrounds making this meaning? This study has attempted to lay the foundation stone of the answer for the questions. To do that, this study selected Roboteu King(Yeong-rang Bae, 1980) and Super Titan 15(Seung-cheol Park, 1983) as the objects of the textual analysis. To grasp the periodical identity, it has examined the cold war ideology that has been the basis of the political and economic environments of Korea. Findings are as follows. Korea was vulnerable to general environments after the Korean War; accordingly, Korea took the-dependence-on-the-US strategy in terms of various aspects including national security, scientific technology, and industry economy. This kind of socio-cutural condition was represented through the narratives of the early 1980s' Korean robot animations. Their narratives including the advance of plots, the roles of Korean protagonists, the technological gap between the planets and earth, and so forth were quite dependent on extraterrestrials and contained anticommunist ideology.

Teleoperation of a robot arm working in hazardous environments has been studied in the field of defense and security. A master system is an essential part that plays an important role in the teleoperation. We developed a master system, which is an essential part in the teleoperation, so that it can operate the slave robot arm intuitively and has excellent mobility and portability compared to conventional master systems. The master system adopted a Stewart platform to minimize the size and weight, and the legs of the Stewart platform are composed of wires to improve the operation range of the system. The experimental validation of the developed master system is conducted with a commercial IMU, and the experimental results show that the proposed master system can perform reliable and dexterous teleoperation.

Recently, in the security token based authentication system, there is an increasing trend of using fingerprint for the token holder verification, instead of passwords. However, the security of the fingerprint data is particularly important as the possible compromise of the data will be permanent. In this paper, we propose an approach for secure fingerprint verification by distributing both the secret and the computation based on the fuzzy vault(a cryptographic construct which has been proposed for crypto-biometric systems). That is, a user fingerprint template which is applied to the fuzzy vault is divided into two parts, and each part is stored into a security token and a server, respectively. At distributing the fingerprint template, we consider both the security level and the verification accuracy. Then, the geometric hashing technique is applied to solve the fingerprint alignment problem, and this computation is also distributed over the combination of the security token and the server in the form of the challenge-response. Finally, the polynomial can be reconstructed from the accumulated real points from both the security token and the server. Based on the experimental results, we confirm that our proposed approach can perform the fuzzy vault-based fingerprint verification more securely on a combination of a security token and a server without significant degradation of the verification accuracy.

In crossing stereo camera system as a security equipment system, a new algorithm for the tracking method of the moving object and the measurement method of distance of the object from cameras to moving object is proposed. The stereo input images are matched by a pixel for the moving object extraction, then the moving elements obtained from an adaptive threshold's value for an error correction and the moving object area extracted by noise eliminative algorithm. In addition to, the moving object traced by control pan/tilt of cameras using a coordinate value of the moving object, and the measurement method of distance to moving object by using special features of the crossing stereo camera system is proposed. From the experimental results, the proposed algorithm was found to be able to measure of the distance and trace for moving object in a stereo security camera system. The error rate of a distance measurement be existed within 6%. Moreover in implementation the proposed algorithm, the stereo security system, the automatic moving robot system and the stereo remote control system will be applied practical application.

As IT technology advances, the need for robots in various areas has been recognized. Robots that focused on the industrial market have been extended to household robots in everyday life. In fact, cleaning robots and security robots have been developed and sold. Most home robots, in spite of high price, their functions are limited. In this paper, we propose the intelligent home robot which is based on smartphones and moving devices to provide various services and voice control.

By developing rider robot using omni wheel drive, a usability test for 6 people was conducted after finding out inconvenient factors and ways of improvement. The results of this research are as follows. First, we researched inconvenient factors captured by object of experiment using a rider robot who is living in the dormitory. It showed that the disabled showing 1.6 of satisfaction degree felt more inconvenient for normal people showing 4 of satisfaction degree. It was found that the height of seats is 10 centimeters higher, which caused inconvenience for moving. Second, each of the disabled and normal people showed 2.33 and 2.62 of satisfaction degree below the average for seats, back of a seat, armrest, footrest, security belts. However, for the revised design both of them showed 3.5 of satisfaction degree over the average. Third, most people felt this robot is quite expensive and said they would purchase it if subsidized by the government. Therefore, based on inconvenient factors and ways of improvement found in this research, further study needs to be conducted so as to improve the quality of life of the disabled.

In this research, We connect the terrestrial magnetism sensor of the Philips to a bluetooth communication system and measured 360 degree of the azimuth change the angle with an incline of 5 degrees to an order direction. The value of the azimuth to be measured sent to the Bluetooth communication system and analyzed the measuring value in the 100m as moved. Using the bluetooth, we could send the measuring value of the azimuth without the bearing error in the plain without an electric wave obstacle within a distance in straight line 100M. We got the value of the azimuth have 98% reliability to maintain at a level with the terrestrial magnetism sensor. Based on this research. We send the measuring value of the azimuth which the accuracy is improved to a mobile intelligent robot moving a land inclined equipped with this system and can track the azimuth of it.

Recently, a cryptographic construct, called fuzzy vault, has been proposed for crypto-biometric systems, and some implementations for fingerprint have been reported to protect the stored fingerprint template by hiding the fingerprint features. In this paper, we implement the fuzzy fingerprint vault, combining fingerprint verification and fuzzy vault scheme to protect fingerprint templates. To implement the fuzzy fingerprint vault as a complete system, we have to consider several practical issues such as automatic fingerprint alignment, verification accuracy, execution time, error correcting code, etc. In addition, to protect the fuzzy fingerprint vault from the correlation attack, we propose an approach to insert chaffs in a structured way such that distinguishing the fingerprint minutiae and the chaff points obtained from two applications is computationally hard. Based on the experimental results, we confirm that the proposed approach provides higher security than inserting chaffs randomly without a significant degradation of the verification accuracy, and our implementation can be used for real applications.
