  • For expressing intention the human often use body languages as well as vocal languages. Of course the gestures using arms and hands are the representative ones among the body languages. Therefore it is very important to understand the human arm motion in human-computer interaction. In this respect we present here how to estimate 3D pose of human arms by using computer vision systems. For this we first focus on the idea that the human arm motion consists of mostly revolute joint motions, and then we present an algorithm for understanding 3D motion of a revolute joint using vision systems. Next we apply it to estimating 3D pose of human arms using vision systems. The fundamental idea for this algorithm extension is that we may apply the algorithm for a revolute joint to each of the revolute joints of hmm arms one after another. In designing the algorithms we focus on seeking closed-form solutions with high accuracy because we aim at applying them to human computer interaction for ubiquitous computing and virtual reality.

  • Network-based intelligent robot is connected with network system, provides interactions with humans, and carries out its own roles on ubiquitous computing environments. URC (Ubiquitous Robot Companion) robot has been proposed to develop network-based robot by applying distributed computing techniques. On URC robot, it is possible to save the computing power of robot client by environments, has been proposed to develop robot software using service-oriented architecture on server-client computing environments. The SOMAR client robot consists of two layers - device service layer and robot service layer. The device service controls physical devices, and the robot service abstracts robot's services, which are newly defined and generated by combining many device services. RSEL (Robot Service Executing Language) is defined in this paper to represent relations and connections between device services and robot services. A RESL document, including robot services by combining several device services, is translated to a programming language for robot client system using RSEL translator, then the translated source program is compiled and uploaded to robot client system with RPC (Remote Procedure Call) command. A SOMAR client system is easy to be applied to embedded systems of host/target architecture. Moreover it is possible to produce a light-weight URC client robot by reducing workload of RSEL processing engine.

  • In order to develop an application software for context-awareness techniques, we should program both all decisions on variable con-text-awareness and appropriate process with some program languages. These cause a loss of software production and unlimited repetition of program code. In this paper, we implement a context script language and language processor which can simplify a series of involved process acquired for context-awareness and describe them clearly. In addition, it can represent a definitions of context as standard syntax as well as accomplish them automatically. The proposed context script language provides functionality which can not only define efficiently a given context but also describe a variety of context with general purpose. Aiso, for the usefulness of the language processor, we build an application system which can provide music play service based on context-awareness.

  • Previous studies for routing In USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Networks) appear to be unreliable due to the dependence on non-spatial data and the lack of map overlay analysis. Multiple spatial parameters and radio propagation modeling techniques were integrated to derive RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) value between route nodes and produce a highly reliable path map. It was possible to identify area-wide patterns of USN route subject to many different Influences (e.g. the specific effects of radio blocking factors such as the visible area, road area, cell duplicated area, and building density), which cannot be acquired by traditional non-spatial modeling. The quantitative evidence concerning the USN route for individual cell as well as entire study area would be utilized as major tools to visualize paths in real-time and to select alternative path when failure or audition of route node occurs.

  • Ubiquitous computing environment, as a new paradigm of the digital information era, has been introduced to respond to rapid changes in society and culture. Today, technology research around the world competes for the preoccupancy of the core technology as well as the development of technology for providing context aware system more intelligent, more sophisticated. Research in recent is underway the implementation of intelligent provisioning system using the ontology. Erstwhile provisioning system did not providing a personalized service that provides the service after context aware. Accordingly, there is a need for studies of intelligent context aware provisioning technique considering environments and context necessary to user. In this paper, in order to provide a service that is optimized for the needs of the user, propose an ontology-based intelligent provisioning service method taking into account the usage patterns and the context of the user. The proposed system is recognized the status of the user and demonstrated a process of reasoning techniques for fit service. And it is possible to the expansion of intelligence.

  • Put your information in the object-based sensors and mobile networks has been developed that correlate with ubiquitous information technology as the development of IT technology. However, a security solution is to have the data stored in the server, what minimal conditions. In this paper, we propose a data management method is applied to a hash chain of the properties of the multiple techniques to the data used by the big user and the data services to ensure safe handling large amounts of data being provided in the big data services. Improves the safety of the data tied to the hash chain for the classification to classify the attributes of the data attribute information according to the type of data used for the big data services, functions and characteristics of the proposed method. Also, the distributed processing of big data by utilizing the access control information of the hash chain to connect the data attribute information to a geographically dispersed data easily accessible techniques are proposed.

  • High-rise construction sites, especially those situated in spatially constrained urban areas, have difficulties in timely delivery of materials. Modern techniques such as Just-in-time delivery, and use of information technology such as Project Management Information System (PMIS), are targeted to improve the efficiency of the logistics. Such IT-driven management techniques can be further benefited from state-of-the-art devices such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags and Ubiquitous Sensor Networks (USN), which has resulted in notable achievements in automated logistics management at the construction sites. Based on those achievements, this research develops USN hardware toolkits for construction lifts, which aims to be automated the vertical material delivery by sensing the material information and routing it automatically to the right place. The gathered information from the sensors can also be used for monitoring the overall status. The developed system will be tested in the actual high-rise construction sites to assess the system's feasibility. The proposed system is being implemented using Zigbee communication modules and RFID sensor networks which will communicate with the intelligent palette system (previously developed by the authors). To support the system, a lift-mountable intelligent toolkit is under development. Its feasibility test will be conducted by applying the implemented system to a test bed and then analyzing efficiency of the system and the toolkit. The collected test data will be provided as a basis of autonomous vertical transport equipment development. From this research, efficient management of the material lift is expected with increased accuracy, as well as better management of overall construction schedule benefited from the system. Further research will be expected to develop a smart construction lift, which will eliminate the need for human supervision, thus enabling a real 'autonomous' operation of the system.

  • Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are an emerging technology and offers economically viable monitoring solution to many challenging applications. However, deploying new technology in hostile environment, without considering security in mind has often proved to be unreasonably unsecured. Apparently, security techniques face many critical challenges in WSNs like data security and secrecy due to its hostile deployment nature. In order to resolve security in WSNs, we propose a novel and efficient secure framework called TriSec: a secure data framework for wireless sensor networks to attain high level of security. TriSec provides data confidentiality, authentication and data integrity to sensor networks. TriSec supports node-to-node encryption using PingPong-128 stream cipher based-privacy. A new PingPong-MAC (PP-MAC) is incorporated with PingPong stream cipher to make TriSec framework more secure. PingPong-128 is fast keystream generation and it is very suitable for sensor network environment. We have implemented the proposed scheme on wireless sensor platform and our result shows their feasibility.

  • Recently, with the advances in sensor techniques and net work computing, Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) has been received a lot of attentions from various communities. The sensor nodes distributed in the sensor network tend to continuously generate a large amount of data, which is called stream data. Sensor stream data arrives in an online manner so that it is characterized as high-speed, real-time and unbounded and it requires fast data processing to get the up-to-date results. The data stream has many application domains such as traffic analysis, physical distribution, U-healthcare and so on. Therefore, there is an overwhelming need of a USN middleware for processing such online stream data to provide corresponding services to diverse applications. In this paper, we propose a novel USN middleware which can provide users both context-aware service and meaningful sequential patterns. Our proposed USN middleware is mainly focused on location based applications which use stream location data. We also show the implementation of our proposed USN middleware. By using the proposed USN middleware, we can save the developing cost of providing context aware services and stream sequential patterns mainly in location based applications.
