A windshield wiper system plays a key part in assuring the driver's safety during the rainfall. However, because the quantity of rain and snow vary irregularly according to time and the velocity of the automobile, a driver changes wiper speed and interval from time to time to secure enough visual field in the traditional windshield wiper system. Because a manual operation of windshield wiper distracts driver's sensitivity and causes inadvertent driving, this is becoming a direct cause of traffic accidents. Therefore, this paper presents the basic architecture of a vision-based smart windshield wiper system and a rain sensing algorithm that regulates speed and interval of the windshield wiper automatically according to the quantity of rain or snow. This paper also introduces a fuzzy wiper control algorithm based on human's expertise, and evaluates the performance of the suggested algorithm in an experimental simulator.

Windshield wipers play a key role in assuring the driver's safety during precipitation. The traditional wiper systems, however, requires driver's constant attention in adjusting the wiper speed and the intermittent wiper interval because the amount of precipitation on the windshield constantly varies according to time and vehicle's speed. Because the manual adjustment of the wiper distracts driver's attention, which may be a direct cause of traffic accidents, many companies have developed automatic wiper systems using some optical sensors with various levels of success. This paper presents the development of vision-based smart windshield wiper system that can automatically adjust its speed and intermittent interval according to the amount of water drops on the windshield. The system employs various image processing algorithms to detect water drops and fuzzy logic to determine the speed and the interval of the wiper.

A windshield wiper system plays a key part in assurance of driver's safety at rainfall. However, because quantity of rain and snow vary irregularly according to time and velocity of automotive, a driver changes speed and operation period of a wiper from time to time in order to secure enough visual field in the traditional windshield wiper system. Because a manual operation of wiper distracts driver's sensitivity and causes inadvertent driving, this is becoming direct cause of traffic accident. Therefore, this paper presents the basic architecture of vision-based smart wiper system and the rain sensing algorithm that regulate speed and interval of wiper automatically according to quantity of rain or snow. Also, this paper introduces the fuzzy wiper control algorithm based on human's expertise, and evaluates performance of suggested algorithm in the simulator model. Especially the vision sensor can measure wider area relatively than the optical rain sensor, hence, this grasps rainfall state more exactly in case disturbance occurs.

When raining or snowing, windshield wiper system is very important for safety of driver. However, manual wiper system frequently needed to be controlled for sufficient visibility and it was very uncomfortable. So, rain sensor which controls automatically was developed. This rain sensor technology uses optical sensing technique sensed the rainfall by receiving reflected light of rain dropped on the windshield. The technology used optical sensor was simple and easy to implement as a rain sensing system in the car. However, it is sometime shown low accuracy to measure rainfall on the windshield when affected by ambient lights from surroundings. It is also given inconvenience to the driver to control the car. To solving these problems, we propose a rain sensing system using image sensor and the fuzzy wiper control algorithm.

The research will be essential that the method for strengthening safety are safe installations in a hardware portion, a safe running ceremony of the vehicle employee (an engine driver) and the estimate of the situation which is accurate. In railway car the window wiper which is auxiliary equipment for safe operation is changed the existing manual control method with automatic correspondence precipitation used raindrops censor which can assure the vision of driving. It can be easy to safe driving as might have expected the object. We carried out studies technical review investigation which can accomplish the best suited wiping speed in maintaining an introduction existing system in the manual control system applied the existing train and corresponding to precipitation. The observation fact in the studies can be possible to ensure safety operation. That is, Manual operation method (of the driver) to add the automatic speed adjust function can operate improved window wiper drive system when it rains and, as was expected, it is able to ensure the range of a good railroad driver's vision and to concentrate in working at rainfall.

직류 모터의 생산 공정품질 확인 작업에 있어서 전체 소음레벨이 합격점에 이른다 할지라도 관능 평가시의 이음으로 인해 불량판정을 받게되는 경우가 있다. 이런 종류의 문제는 가공 또는 조립 공정상에서 발생될수 있는데 본 눈문에서는 과도기적 스펙트럴 분석 혹은 시간-주파수 분석 기법을 소음품질 문제에 적용해 보았다.Case Study로써 윈드쉴드 와이퍼 모터의 이음 발생원이 상세 분석되었으며, 결과적으로 정상적인 주파수 분석에서 발견되지 않았던 아마추어 축의 불량이 충격소음을 일으킨것으로 밝혀졌다. 이를 통해 회전체-기어 시스템의 이음 원인규명을 위한 시간-주파수 분석 기법의 효과적 활용이 잘 나타났다.

전세계적으로 기후 변화의 영향에 따른 차량 추돌 사고에 대한 위험성이 중요한 이슈로 등장하고 있다. 고속주행차량의 속도제한을 위해 다양한 형태의 속도제한 표시장치가 고려되고 있으나 현재는 대부분 고정식 속도제한 표시기를 사용하고 있다. 4계절이 뚜렷한 우리나라의 경우에는 비가 많이 오는 우기나 눈이 많이 오는 계절이나 안개가 많이 발생되는 경우에는 차량 추돌 사고를 방지하기 위한 차량 속도 감속 제한이 필요하지만 기존에 설치되어 있는 고정식 표지판으로는 사고를 미연에 방지하는 것이 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 레인 센서와 차량 와이퍼 시스템 등을 결합 시킨 기후 변화에 따른 차량 속도 제한이 가변적으로 표시되는 LED 전광판의 프로토타입 모델을 제작하였다. 내리는 비나 눈의 양에 따라 기준속도의 100%, 80%, 50%로 3단계로 가변 표시되는 속도제한 표시기는 설치되는 장소에 따라 적절한 속도를 선택 지정하여 표시할 수 있다. LED 표시장치를 이용한 시각적인 효과로 인해 운전자들이 사전에 속도를 감속하게 하여 차량 추돌 사고를 미연에 방지하는데 효과적으로 이용될 것으로 기대 된다.
