Tangible interface can be understood as a newly defined concept, which can provide an effective and seamless interaction between the human as a subjective existence and the cyberspace as an objective existence. Tactile sensation is essential for many exploration and manipulation tasks in the tangible space. In this paper, we suggest the design of an integrated tactile sensor-display system that provides both of sensing and feedback with kinesthetic force, pressure distribution, vibration and slip/stretch. A new tactile sensor with PDVF strips and display system with bimorph actuators has been developed and integrated by developed signal processing algorithm. In the scenario of haptic navigation in the tangible space, tactile feedback system is successfully experimented.

In this paper, presented is a feedback control performance of vibratory gyroscope at various vacuum levels. Micro gyroscope, whose operation is based on the vibrating motion at the vacuum conditions, is highly influenced by the vacuum level of the operating circumstances. In general, we apply the feedback control scheme to the gyroscope in order to improve the performances of the sensor. And control performances of the gyroscope are related to those vacuum levels. So we need investigate the performances of the closed loop control at various vacuum conditions comparing with those of the open loop. The experimental results show that the sensitivity of the closed loop is less than that of the open loop especially in low vacuum conditions. Therefore, there should be trade-off between sensitivity and other sensor performances such as linearity, bandwidth when we apply feedback control to the gyroscope.

This paper presents a wide dynamic range complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor with column capacitor and feedback structure. The designed circuit has been fabricated by using $0.18{\mu}m$ 1-poly 6-metal standard CMOS technology. This sensor has dual mode operation using combination of active pixel sensor (APS) and passive pixel sensor (PPS) structure. The proposed pixel operates in the APS mode for high-sensitivity in normal light intensity, while it operates in the PPS mode for low-sensitivity in high light intensity. The proposed PPS structure is consisted of a conventional PPS with column capacitor and feedback structure. The capacitance of column capacitor is changed by controlling the reference voltage using feedback structure. By using the proposed structure, it is possible to store more electric charge, which results in a wider dynamic range. The simulation and measurement results demonstrate wide dynamic range feature of the proposed PPS.

네트워크 분야에서 데이터 압축은 네트워크 트래픽을 줄이기 위한 전통적이고 효과적인 방법 중 하나이다. 센서 네트워크의 데이터는 시/공간적인 연관성을 가지고 있으며, 이러한 특성을 이용한 데이터 압축 기법들이 많이 연구되고 있다. 센서 노드는 제한된 범위내의 통신이 가능하며, 자신의 통신 반경내의 데이터만을 활용한다. 만약 네트워크의 전체 데이터 분포 특성을 활용할 수 있다면, 데이터 압축의 효율을 증가시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크 전체 데이터 분포 특성을 활용하기 위한 새로운 접근의 피드백 배포 기법을 통한 데이터 압축 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 기지국 혹은 슈퍼 노드에 의해 수집된 데이터의 빈도를 이용하여 허프만 코드를 생성하고, 배포함으로써 네트워크 전체의 데이터 압축을 용이하게 한다. 본 논문의 우수성을 보이기 위해서 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능 평가를 수행하였으며 그 결과 네트워크의 수명이 약 30% 증가하였다.

In this paper, we propose an output feedback controller for a chain of integrators system compensating measurement noise of feedback sensor. Measurement noise makes feedback signals distorted, and results in performance degradation or even system failure. Therefore, we need to design a robust controller to accommodate the possible measurement noise in the feedback information. Our controller is equipped with a gain-scaling factor to reject or minimize the effect of measurement noise in output feedback information. We give a theoretical analysis of the controlled system and illustrate the improved control performance via an example.

A micro positioning system using piezoelectric actuators have very wide application region such as ultra-precision machine tool optical device measurement system. In order to keep a high precision displacement resolution it to useful to take a position sensor and feedback of the error. From the practical point of view high-resolution displacement sensor systems are very expensive and it is difficult to make such a sensitive sensor work properly in a poor operational environment of industry. In this study a piezo-electric micro-depth control system which does not require position sensor but piezoelectric voltage feedback has been developed. It is driven by hysteresis-considering reference input voltage calculated in advance and actuator/sensor characteristics of piezoelectric materials. From the result of experiments a fast and stable response of micro-depth control system has been achieved and an efficient technique to control the piezoelectric actuator suggested.

In this paper, a wide dynamic range active pixel sensor(APS) with output voltage feedback structure has been designed by a 2-poly 4-metal 0.35 $\mu$m standard CMOS technology. We presented a novel APS with output voltage feedback, which exhibits a wide dynamic range. The dynamic range increases at the cost of an additional diode and an additional MOSFET. The output voltage feedback structure enables the control of the output voltage level by itself, as incident light power varies. It is confirmed that the light level which the output voltage level of proposed APS is saturated is about 120,000 lux, which is higher than that of a conventional 3-transistor APS.

In this paper, modal control with direct output feedback is formulated in a systematic manner for easy implementation. Its application to the seismic protection of structural systems is verified by a shaking table test, which involves a full-scale building model and an active bracing system as the control device. Two modal control cases, namely, one full-state feedback and one direct output feedback control were tested and compared. The experimental result shows that in mitigating the seismic response of building structures, modal control with direct output feedback can be as effective and efficient as that with full-state feedback control. For practical concerns, the control performance of the proposed method in the presence of sensor noise and stiffness modeling error was also investigated. The numerical result shows that although the control force may be increased, the maximum floor displacements of the controlled structure are very insensitive to sensor noise and modeling error.

This paper presents a new approach to the AFR (Air-to-Fuel Ratio) control problem, which is based on the wide-band oxygen sensor output. The dedicated nonlinear controller is based on the feedback lineaization technique. It is well known that the feedback linearizing control technique requires an exact model of the plant for the cancellation of plant nonlinearities. A sliding mode control scheme is applied which can effectively compensate the modeling uncertainties. The measurement time delay of an oxygen sensor limits the gain of the feedback controller. Hence, time delay compensation procedure is necessary for the improvement of control performance. The Smith predictor is adopted to compensate the effects of time delay. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed controllers can effectively reduce the transient peaks of AFR in spite of fast tip-in and tip-out maneuvers of the throttle.

In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant controller for compensating measurement noise of feedback sensor. Because control systems operate via feedback sensor's signal, the measurement noise in sensor's signal results in performance degradation or even system failure. Therefore, control systems often demand on compensating measurement noise. Our controller is equipped with a compensator in order to reject or reduce the effect of measurement noise in feedback information. Our proposed method is verified via simulation and experiment for a Ball and Beam system.
