본 논문은 실내 공간에서 RFID와 센서를 이용하여 이동로봇이 자기 위치를 파악하고 목표 물체를 인식할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. RFID를 지면과 목표물체에 설치하고 로봇은 리더기와 다양한 센서를 갖춤으로써 이동시 자기 위치를 파악하고 물체로부터도 고유정보를 얻을 수 있게 구성하였다. 초음파 센서 신호의 귀환시간을 활용하여 전방 물체의 거리를 추출하며 바닥의 RFID로부터 이미 획득한 자기 위치를 활용하여 물체의 절대 위치를 구한다. 이는 로봇을 중심으로한 경로지도를 실시간으로 작성하는 것이 가능하며, 실내의 구조 및 목표 물체의 위치등을 포함한 전체적인 지도를 작성할 수 있다. 최종적으로는 최적의 경로 계획을 세워 로봇이 목표 위치로 이동하거나 자율적 탐색이 가능하도록 한다.

본 논문에서는 GPS 기반의 자율주행 군사로봇에 사용된 각종 센서들의 융합(Sensor Fusion)에 대하여 다루고 있다. GPS 를 통한 자율주행의 경우 GPS 의 성능에 따라 정확도 차이는 있으나 특별한 지형지물 없이 로봇의 현재 위치를 파악할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 하지만 GPS 만 이용하여 자율주행 알고리즘을 구성하는 경우 로봇의 진행 방향을 특정하지 못한다는 문제점이 발생한다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 RTK GPS 와 Lidar, IMU 센서를 ROS 환경에서 Robot_Localization 과 EKF(Extended Kalman Filter)를 이용하여 융합하는 방법에 대하여 다루었다.

자율주행 및 robot navigation 시스템에서 물체 인식 성능향상을 위해 대부분 MSF(Multi-Sensor Fusion) 기반 설계를 한다. 따라서 각 센서로부터 들어온 정보를 정합하는 것은 정확한 MSF 알고리즘을 위한 필요조건이다. 다양한 선행 연구에서 2D 데이터에 대한 공격을 진행했다. 자율주행에서는 3D 데이터를 다루어야 하므로 선행 연구에서 하지 않았던 3D 데이터 공격을 진행했다. 본 연구에서는 스케일링 공격 기반 카메라-라이다 센서 간 정합 모델의 정확도를 저하시키는 공격 방법을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 입력 라이다의 포인트 클라우드에 스케일링 공격을 적용하여 다운스케일링 단계에서 공격하고자 한다. 실험 결과, 입력 데이터에 공격하였을 때 공격 전보다 평균제곱 이동오류는 56% 이상, 평균 사원수 각도 오류는 98% 이상 증가했음을 보였다. 다운스케일링 크기 별, 알고리즘별 공격을 적용했을 때, 10×20 크기로 다운스케일링 하고 lanczos4 알고리즘을 적용했을 때 가장 효과적으로 공격할 수 있음을 확인했다.

With the development of sensor and satellite technology, numerous high-resolution and multi-spectral satellite images have been available. Due to their wavelength-dependent reflection, transmission, and scattering characteristics, multi-spectral satellite images can provide complementary information for earth observation. In particular, the short-wave infrared (SWIR) band can penetrate certain types of atmospheric aerosols from the benefit of the reduced Rayleigh scattering effect, which allows for a clearer view and more detailed information to be captured from hazed surfaces compared to the visible band. In this study, we proposed a multi-resolution transform-based image fusion method to combine visible and SWIR satellite images. The purpose of the fusion method is to generate a single integrated image that incorporates complementary information such as detailed background information from the visible band and land cover information in the haze region from the SWIR band. For this purpose, this study applied the Laplacian pyramid-based multi-resolution transform method, which is a representative image decomposition approach for image fusion. Additionally, we modified the multiresolution fusion method by combining a haze-guided weight map based on the prior knowledge that SWIR bands contain more information in pixels from the haze region. The proposed method was validated using very high-resolution satellite images from Worldview-3, containing multi-spectral visible and SWIR bands. The experimental data including hazed areas with limited visibility caused by smoke from wildfires was utilized to validate the penetration properties of the proposed fusion method. Both quantitative and visual evaluations were conducted using image quality assessment indices. The results showed that the bright features from the SWIR bands in the hazed areas were successfully fused into the integrated feature maps without any loss of detailed information from the visible bands.

Recently, the prevalence of remotely managed patient care systems in medical institutions is increasing due to COVID-19. In particular, in the case of fluid monitoring, hospitals are considering introducing it as a system that can reduce patient safety and nurses' work. There are two products under development: a load cell method that measures weight and a method that detects drops of sap by infrared sensing. Although each product has differences in operation principle, sensor type, size, usage, and price, medical institutions are highly interested in the accuracy of the data obtained.In this study, two prototypes with different sensor methods were manufactured and the total amount of infusion per hour was measured to test the accuracy, which is the core of the infusion monitoring device. In addition, when there was an external movement, the change in the measured value of the sap was tested to evaluate the accuracy according to the measurement method. As a result of the experiment, there was a difference of less than 5% in the measurement value error of the two devices, and the load cell method showed a difference in the low-capacity measurement value and the infrared method in the high-capacity measurement value. As a result of this experiment, there was little difference in accuracy according to the sensor method of the infusion monitoring device, and it is considered that there is no problem in accuracy when used in a medical institution.

In recent years the monitoring of structural behavior through acquisition of vibrational data has become common practice. In addition, recent advances in sensor development have made the collection of diverse dynamic information feasible. Other than the commonly collected acceleration information, Global Position System (GPS) receivers and non-contact, optical techniques have also allowed for the synchronous collection of highly accurate displacement data. The fusion of this heterogeneous information is crucial for the successful monitoring and control of structural systems especially when aiming at real-time estimation. This task is not a straightforward one as measurements are inevitably corrupted with some percentage of noise, often leading to imprecise estimation. Quite commonly, the presence of noise in acceleration signals results in drifting estimates of displacement states, as a result of numerical integration. In this study, a new approach based on a time domain identification method, namely the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF), is proposed for correcting the "drift effect" in displacement or rotation estimates in an online manner, i.e., on the fly as data is attained. The method relies on the introduction of artificial white noise (WN) observations into the filter equations, which is shown to achieve an online correction of the drift issue, thus yielding highly accurate motion data. The proposed approach is demonstrated for two cases; firstly, the illustrative example of a single degree of freedom linear oscillator is examined, where availability of acceleration measurements is exclusively assumed. Secondly, a field inspired implementation is presented for the torsional identification of a tall tower structure, where acceleration measurements are obtained at a high sampling rate and non-collocated GPS displacement measurements are assumed available at a lower sampling rate. A multi-rate Kalman Filter is incorporated into the analysis in order to successfully fuse data sampled at different rates.

The paper presents a new short-term dynamic displacement estimation method based on an acceleration and a geophone sensor. The proposed method combines acceleration and velocity measurements through a real time data fusion algorithm based on Kalman filter. The proposed method can estimate the displacement of a structure without displacement sensors, which is typically difficult to be applied to earthquake or fire sites due to their requirement of a fixed rigid support. The proposed method double-integrates the acceleration measurement recursively, and corrects an accumulated integration error based on the velocity measurement, The performance of the proposed method was verified by a lab-scale test, in which displacement estimated by the proposed method are compared to a reference displacement measured by laser doppler vibrometer (LDV).

The Image sensor of digital still camera has a limited dynamic range. In high dynamic range scenes, a picture often turns out to be underexposed or overexposed. Retinex algorithm based on the theory of the human visual perception is known to be effective contrast enhancement technique. However, it happens the unbalanced contrast enhancement which is the global contrast increased, and the local contrast decreased in the high dynamic range scenes. In this paper, to enhance the both global and local contrast, we propose the weight mapping retinex algorithm. Weight map is composed of the edge and exposure data which are extracted in the each retinex image, and merged with the retinex images in the fusion processing. According to the output picture comparing and numerical analysis, the proposed algorithm gives the better output image with the increased global and local contrast.
