In this research, we presented a data integration, which integrates ultra high resolution images and complementary data for 3D building reconstruction. In our method, as the ultra high resolution image, Three Line Sensor (TLS) images are used in combination with 2D digital maps, DSMs and both of them. Reconstructed 3D buildings, correctness rate and the accuracy of results were presented. As a result, optimized combination scheme of data sets , sensors and methods was proposed.

A CMOS x-ray line scan sensor which is used in both medical imaging and non-destructive diagnosis is designed. It has a pixel array of 512 columns ${\times}$ 4 rows and a built-in DC-DC converter. The pixel circuit is newly proposed to have three binning modes such as no binning, $2{\times}2$ binning, and $4{\times}4$ binning in order to select one of pixel sizes of $100{\mu}m$, $200{\mu}m$, and $400{\mu}m$. It is designed to output a fully differential image signal which is insensitive to power supply and input common mode noises. The layout size of the designed line scan sensor with a $0.18{\mu}m$ x-ray CMOS image sensor process is $51,304{\mu}m{\times}5,945{\mu}m$.

This paper is studied, as basic research for measuring the accurate fuel amount of the CNG tank by using the transmit-receive ultrasonic sensor, the receiving sensitivity according to changed the pressure inside the tank and the contact surface of the ultrasonic sensor is analyzed. Measurement was carried out while changing the contact surface of the tank and the sensor to three shapes of Point, Line, and Surface and charging the pressure in the tank at an interval of 1 bar from 0 bar to 5 bar. Experiment results, as the pressure in the tank increased the tendency of the received signal value of the ultrasonic sensor to decrease was confirmed. As the contact area between the tank and the sensor increased, the value of the received signal increased, but the noise also increased. The results of experiment, it is judged that accuracy can be improved by changing the contact surface of the sensor.

The robot systems are widely used in the welding manufacturing. The essential tasks to operate the welding robot are the acquisition of the position and/or shape of the parent metal. For the seam tracking or the robot automation, many kinds of contact and non-contact of the system which monitors the shape of the welding part is described. This system uses the line-type structured laser diode and the visual sensor. It includes the correction of radial distortion which is often found in the image from the camera with short focal length. Direct Linear Transformation (DLT) is used for the camera calibration. The three dimensional shape of the parent metal is obtained after simple linear transformation. Therefore, the system operates in real time. Some experiments are carried out to evaluate the performance of the developed system.

We introduce a new method of time-division visible light communication (VLC) using LED lamp light for the generation of synchronizing pulses. The LED lamp, driven by an AC 220-V power line, radiates light that has a 120-Hz frequency component. The pulse generator in each VLC system receives the LED lamp light and generates the synchronizing pulses that are required for time-division transmission of multiple VLC channels. The pulse period is subdivided into several time slots for VLC channels. In experiments, 120-Hz synchronizing pulses were generated using LED lamp light, and three VLC channels were transmitted independently without interfering with each other in a condition where the VLC signals overlapped in space. This configuration is useful in constructing multiple wireless sensor networks that are safe and without interference in locations where LED lamps are used for illumination.

Conventionally, air-cored Rogowski coil was designed for use as high alternating and transient current sensor without saturation caused by ferromagnetic material in its core. This paper investigated that Rogowski coil can be applied to low current measurement in 60Hz power line. Measured parameters R, L of coil were compared with theoretically calculated values. Output voltages crossed by Rogowski coil have shown some linearity according to input current(tens to thousands of amperes) passing through it. And also shielding effect for external noises was investigated for three cases.

The automation of agricultural machines is an irreversible trend considering the demand for improved productivity and lack of labor in handling agricultural tasks. Unstructured working environments and weather often inhibit a seemingly simple task from being fully autonomously performed. In this context, we propose a remote driving system (RDS) to aid agricultural machines designed to operate autonomously. Particularly, we modify a commercial speed sprayer for orchard environments into a robotic speed sprayer to evaluate the proposed RDS's usability and test three sensor configurations in terms of human performance. Furthermore, we propose a confidence error ellipsebased task performance measure to evaluate human performance. In addition, we present field experimental results describing how the sensor configurations affect human performance. We find that a combination of a semiautonomous line tracking device and a wide-angle camera is the most effective for spraying. Finally, we discuss how to improve the proposed RDS in terms of usability and obtain a more accurate measure of human performance.

In this paper, sub-microwave oscillator sensor is proposed to non-invasively monitor the glucose concentration level of the human biological tissue by oscillation frequency variation. Inductive slot in the ground plane of the microstrip line is combined with the biological tissue, to realize the resonator as a part of the oscillator sensor. The phantom box mimicking the human tissue is introduced for simulation of the resonator which resonance frequency correspondingly shifts up on three step glucose concentration levels(0, 400, 800 mg/dL). Oscillator sensor circuit is fabricated as a prototype. Pig tissues instead of human is used. Oscillation frequency shift of about 14 MHz per glucose level of 400 mg/dL has been successfully measured around 1,100 MHz. This proves that the proposed sensor is applicable to a blood glucose sensor.

Three-dimensional (3D) multilayered Pt electrodes were fabricated to develop a porous electrode using a pattern-transfer printing process. The Pt thin films were deposited using a transferred sputtering pattern having a 250 nm line width on the substrate, and the uniform line patterns were efficiently transferred using our proposed method. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) analyses were used to evaluate the porosity of the electrodes. It was possible to distinguish between two resolved maxima at 168 and 227 ℃, which could be described in terms of desorption reactions on the Pt (111) planes. The results of the TPD analysis of the 3D and multilayered Pt electrodes prepared through transfer printing were compared to those of an electrode fabricated through screen printing using a commercial Pt-carbon paste commonly used as porous electrodes. It was confirmed that the 3D multilayered electrodes exhibited a desorption concentration approximately 100 times higher than that of the Pt-carbon composite electrode, and the desorption concentration increased by approximately 0.02 mg/mol per layer. The 3D multilayered electrode effectively functions as a porous electrode and a catalyst.

This paper deals with a fault detection and isolation scheme for a DC motor driven centrifugal pump system. The emphasis is placed on the design and implementation of the residual generatorm, based on parity relation, that provides decision logic unit with residuals that will be further processed to detect and isolate three important faults in the system;brush fault, impeller fault, and the speed sensor fault. Two process faults are modelled as multiplicative type faults, while the sensor fault as an additive one. With multiplicative fault, the implementation of the residual generator needs the time varying transformation matrix that must be computed on-line. Typical implementation methods lack in generality because only a numerical approximation around the assumed fault levels is employed. In this paper, a new implementation method using well tranined neural network is proposed to improve the generality of the residual generator. Application results show that the fault detection and isolation scheme with the proposed residual generator effectively isolates three major faults in the centrifugal pump system even with a wide range of fault magnitude.
