This paper proposes a new device for a portable braille device using Atmega128 and solenoid magnets. This braille device is composed of three panels, and each panel has six solenoid dots. This device aims to help the disabled people who cannot communicate with others. As an application example, when a disabled people approach a traffic light, it sends a message via Bluetooth to the proposed device letting people recognize a dangerous area. The message converted from the database is based on standard braille chart.

The process of railway traffic planning is composed of several steps such as long - term, mid - term, short - term, and real - time plan. The planning of vehicle and manpower resources is a main research topic in tactical short - term planning step Railway vehicle is usually consisted of a power car, passenger/freight cars and human resource is composed of engine driver, cabin crew, ground personnel. So far , power car was main research target in railway vehicle scheduling problem. Recently according as the light electric railway or high - speed railway is introduced, the operational planning of train set vehicles become important . In this paper , we introduce the conceptional model for trainset restoring problem and developed heuristic algorithm.

우리나라의 자동차의 수는 1990년부터 계속 증가하고 있다. 계속되는 자동차수의 증가로 인해 휴일, 출퇴근 시간에 교통이 혼잡 또는 마비되는 문제가 발생한다. 하지만 기존의 신호등 체계는 통계적인 수치에 의해 결정되기 때문에 항상 일정하지 않은 차량의 수를 제어하기에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실시간으로 변하는 차량의 수와 점유시간에 따라 퍼지 제어 기법을 이용하여 신호를 제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 교통 신호 제어 방법은 교차로에 대기하는 차량의 수와 점유 시간을 퍼지 제어 기법에 적용하여 차량의 진행 신호에 대한 우선순위를 부여한다. 가장 높은 우선 순위를 가지는 현시에 대해 진행 신호를 부여하고 나머지는 대기하게 된다. 그리고 진행 신호의 시간을 교차로에 대기하는 모든 차량의 수와 차량의 비율, 진행 신호를 부여받은 차량의 수를 이용하여 계산한다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 펴지 신호 제어 기법과 정적인 신호 제어 기법에 대해 시뮬레이션을 통해 실험한 결과 차량 혼잡도와 상관없이 제안된 차량 신호 제어 기법이 동일한 시간에 더 많은 차량이 원활하게 소통되는 것을 확인하였다.

Energy efficiency is the most challenging issue in wireless sensor network to prolong the life time of the network, as the sensors has to be unattended. Cluster based communication can reduce the traffic on the network and gives the opportunity to other sensors for periodic sleep and thus save energy. Passive clustering (PC) can perform a significant role to minimize the network load as it is less computational and light weight. First declaration wins method of PC without any priority generates severe collision in the network and forms the clusters very dense with large amount of overlapping region. We have proposed several modifications for the existing passive clustering algorithm to prolong the life time of the network with better cluster formation.

$8{\sim}12$인치의 원형(또는 사각) PCB 기판에 수백 개의 고휘도 반도체 발광 다이오드(Light Emitting Diode. LED)와 구동 회로로 구성되는 LED 교통 신호등은 특정 파장대의 단색광을 발광하므로, 기존의 백열전구식 신호등에 비해 시인성이 좋고, 80 % 이상의 에너지 절약이 가능하다. 그러나 LED는 주위 온도에 따라 밝기가 변화하는 특성이 있다. 신호등은 기능상 외부 온도의 영향 없이 항상 일정한 광도를 유지해야 하므로, 본 논문에서는 외부 온도의 변화에 관계없이 일정한 광출력을 유지할 수 있는 LED 구동회로를 설계한다 이를 위해 정전압 및 정전류로 구동되는 LED의 온도에 따른 광출력 특성 실험이 수행되고, 이러한 데이터들을 바탕으로 정광출력 LED 신호등 구동회로가 설계되고 그 성능을 평가한다.

Spatially referenced mobile mapping (MM) images contain rich information of man-made objects , e.g. road centerlines, buildings, light poles, traffic signs ,billboards and line trees etc. Therefore, the applications in transportation, urban 3D reconstruction, utility management are implemented increasingly. It’s a fundamental issue lies in MM image process that how to orient this image in the object space including interior orientation of camera and the exterior orientation of image. In this paper, the algorithm of automatic acquirement of DC (Digital Camera) parameters based on MM images is illustrated. And then, the mapping between image space and object space for MM images is described.

Normally, the government or a local autonomous entity selects urban railway(subway, light rail transits etc.) system after investigating logicality about a route and announcing officially for people's convenience if the system is decided, suppliers of equipment(train, transformer, trolly wire, signal, communication, PSD, AFC etc.) are selected and ordering go forward. Stabilization of a total system is need for smooth train operation before opening to traffic by design, installation, total trial operation So, a measure against interface disharmony between each equipment is need. This treatise deals with the systematic method of management and items for interface plan from system design to opening on the evidence of experience of Gwangju subway total interface.

How can a train move? While a car is driven by a driver who gets the traffic information and takes the road, a train is operated on the designated(or predetermined) track by the operator or the control center. There have been a great deal of changes and evolutions in the railroad environment. Along with these transitions, there have been also a considerable amount of changes in the control center. There has been no detailed analysis for the control center even though its importance has been recognized. It goes without saying that CCC(Central Control Center)'s importance as the core of the train driving system. Such an importance is true for the automated driving system such as the light rail system. Therefore this paper analyzes the CCC of AREX(Airport Express) from the various aspects, i.e., organization, personnel assignment, the way of working, qualification and job analysis for the operator.

The nature of wireless transmission has made wireless sensor networks defenseless against various attacks. This paper presents warning message counter method (WMC) to detect blackhole attack, grayhole attack and sinkhole attack in wireless sensor networks. The objective of these attackers are, to draw the nearby network traffic by false routing information and disrupt the network operation through dropping all the received packets (blackhole attack), selectively dropping the received packets (grayhole and sinkhole attack) and modifying the content of the packet (sinkhole attack). We have also attempted light weighted symmetric key cryptography to find data modification by the sinkhole node. Simulation results shows that, WMC detects sinkhole attack, blackhole attack and grayhole attack with less false positive 8% and less false negative 6%.

As the number of visually impaired people steadily increases, interest in independent walking is also increasing. However, there are various inconveniences in the independent walking of the visually impaired at present, reducing the quality of life of the visually impaired. The white cane, which is an existing walking aid for the visually impaired, has difficulty in recognizing upper obstacles and obstacles outside the effective distance. In addition, it is inconvenient to cross the street because the sound signal to help the visually impaired cross the crosswalk is lacking or damaged. These factors make it difficult for the visually impaired to walk independently. Therefore, we propose the design of an embedded system that provides traffic light recognition through object recognition technology, voice guidance using TTS, and upper obstacle recognition through ultrasonic sensors so that blind people can realize safe and high-quality independent walking.
