In this paper, we suggest that how to improve an accuracy of mobile robot's localization by using the sensor network information which fuses the machine vision camera, encoder and IMU sensor. The heading value of IMU sensor is measured using terrestrial magnetism sensor which is based on magnetic field. However, this sensor is constantly affected by its surrounding environment. So, we isolated template of ceiling using vision camera to increase the sensor's accuracy when we use IMU sensor; we measured the angles by pattern matching algorithm; and to calibrate IMU sensor, we compared the obtained values with IMU sensor values and the offset value. The values that were used to obtain information on the robot's position which were of Encoder, IMU sensor, angle sensor of vision camera are transferred to the Host PC by wireless network. Then, the Host PC estimates the location of robot using all these values. As a result, we were able to get more accurate information on estimated positions than when using IMU sensor calibration solely.

In the contemporary world, the breakthrough of the ultra-modern technologies has been blessed with the camera. This device has become omnipresent either integrated on with other devices such as smartphones, notebooks, laptops, handheld devices and so on. In addition, digital signage, display and monitors have also become very widespread around us everywhere. These types of scenarios have made imaginable to imagine about the consuming of the unused resources. The dual use of displayed contents can make it possible to use it as an advertisement as well as a transmitter for camera based communication. In this study, a digital watermarking algorithm based communication method has been analyzed. We have introduced Binary Pattern (BP) based a new message extracting algorithm to extract message in an efficient way from the watermarked image compared to other algorithms. Besides, the previous works using camera and display have been illustrated using comparative analysis. This paper has demonstrated an advantageous overview using the experimental results which reveals that the proposed methodology significantly reduces the complexity while augmenting the advantages of the proposed scheme. Moreover, the simulation results have shown the advantages of the proposed scheme over the other schemes.

차세대 무선 통신기술로 알려져 있는 Optical Camera Communication(OCC)은 많은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 이러한 OCC 기술은 통신 환경에 의해 성능이 좌우되며 이를 개선하기 위해 다양한 전략이 연구되고 있다. 그중 가장 두각을 나타내고 있는 방법은 딥러닝 기술을 사용하여 OCC의 수신기에 CNN을 적용하는 방법이다. 하지만 대부분의 연구에서는 CNN을 단순히 송신기를 검출하는데 사용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 CNN을 송신기 검출 뿐만 아니라 Rx 복조 시스템에 적용하여 실험한다. 그리고 OCC 시스템의 데이터 이미지는 다른 이미지 데이터셋과는 다르게 비교적 분류가 간단하기 때문에 대부분의 CNN 모델에서 높은 정확도의 결과가 나타날 것이라는 가설을 세웠다. 가설을 증명하기 위해 OCC 시스템을 설계 및 구현하여 데이터를 수집하였고 12가지의 다양한 CNN 모델에 적용하여 실험했다. 실험 결과 파라미터수가 많은 고성능의 CNN 모델 뿐만 아니라 경량화 CNN 모델에서도 99% 이상의 정확도를 달성하였고 이를 통해 스마트폰과 같은 저성능 계산 장치에 OCC 시스템 적용이 가능함을 확인했다.

Ubiquitous computing is one of the key technology areas in the "Project on Development of Ubiquitous computing and network technology" promoted by the Ministry of Science and Technology as a frontier business of the $21^{st}$ century in Korea, which is based on the new concept merging physical space and computer-based cyber space. With recent advances in Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) technology, low cost and low-power consumption wireless micro sensor nodes have been available. Using these smart sensor nodes, there are many activities to monitor real world, for example, habitat monitoring, earthquake monitoring and so on. In this paper, we introduce web-based real environment monitoring system incorporating wireless sensor nodes. It collects sensing data produced by some wireless sensor nodes and stores them into a database system to analyze. Our environment monitoring system is composed of a networked camera and environmental sensor nodes, which are called Mica2 and developed by University of California at Berkeley. We have modified and ported network protocols over TinyOS and developed a monitoring application program using the MTS310 and MTS420 sensors that are able to observe temperature, relative humidity, light and accelerator. The sensed data can be accessed user-friendly because our environment monitoring system supports web-based user interface. Moreover, in this system, we can setup threshold values so the system supports a function to inform some anomalous events to administrators. Especially, the system shows two useful pre-processed data as a kind of practical uses: a discomfort index and a septicity index. To make both index values, the system restores related data from the database system and calculates them according to each equation relatively. We can do enormous works using wireless sensor technologies, but just environment monitoring. In this paper, we show just one of the plentiful applications using sensor technologies.

As an essential part of the urban transportation system, precise perception of the traffic flow parameters at the traffic signal intersection ensures traffic safety and fully improves the intersection's capacity. Traditional detection methods of road traffic flow parameter can be divided into the micro and the macro. The microscopic detection methods include geomagnetic induction coil technology, aerial detection technology based on the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and camera video detection technology based on the fixed scene. The macroscopic detection methods include floating car data analysis technology. All the above methods have their advantages and disadvantages. Recently, indoor location methods based on wireless signals have attracted wide attention due to their applicability and low cost. This paper extends the wireless signal indoor location method to the outdoor intersection scene for traffic flow parameter estimation. In this paper, the detection scene is constructed at the intersection based on the received signal strength indication (RSSI) ranging technology extracted from the wireless signal. We extracted the RSSI data from the wireless signals sent to the road side unit (RSU) by the vehicle nodes, calibrated the RSSI ranging model, and finally obtained the traffic flow parameters of the intersection entrance road. We measured the average speed of traffic flow through multiple simulation experiments, the trajectory of traffic flow, and the spatiotemporal map at a single intersection inlet. Finally, we obtained the queue length of the inlet lane at the intersection. The simulation results of the experiment show that the RSSI ranging positioning method based on wireless signals can accurately estimate the traffic flow parameters at the intersection, which also provides a foundation for accurately estimating the traffic flow state in the future era of the Internet of Vehicles.

최근 우범 지역, 어린이 보호 구역, 방범 지역 등에 인명과 재산을 보호하기 위하여 감시용 카메라가 설치되고, 그 효과가 인정되어 점점 많이 설치되고 있다. 일반적인 감시용 카메라는 한 곳만 촬영할 수 있기 때문에 다수의 장소를 상세히 감시하기 위하서는 여러 대의 카메라를 설치해야 하는 비용적인 문제가 있다. 팬, 틸트 그리고 줌 기능을 갖춘 PTZ 카메라는 내부 스케쥴 또는 원격 조정으로 카메라의 초점을 이동시켜서 여러 장소를 감시할 수 있는 장점이 있지만, 감시 이벤트가 발생한 지점을 인식할 수는 없기 때문에 이벤트가 발생한 지점으로 카메라의 초점을 자동으로 이동시킬 수 없는 단점이 있다. 본 연구는 다수의 장소를 능동적이면서 저비용으로 감시하기 위하여 각각의 감시 지역에 온도, 조도, 인체 감지 또는 가스 센서 등을 탑재한 무선 센서 노드를 설치하고, 감시지역에 설치된 무선 센서로부터 수신한 각종 센서 데이터를 분석하여 이상 징후로 판단될 경우, 사전에 설정된 위치로 PTZ 카메라의 초점을 자동으로 이동시키고 촬영한 영상을 사용자에게 전송하여 다중 지역을 효율적으로 모니터링할 수 있는 시스템을 연구하였다. 또한 야간에 적외선을 이용하여 촬영할 수 있지만, 해상도를 높이기 위하여 사용된 조명 장치의 전력 소모를 줄이기 위하여 이벤트가 발생한 경우에만 조명 장치의 전원을 공급함으로써 절전형 그린 모니터링 시스템을 구현할 수 있었다.

The measurement of contact wire uplift in electric railway is one of the most test method to accept the maximum permitted speed of new vehicles or pantographs. The contact wire uplift can be measured for shot periods when pantograph is running in monitoring station. This paper describes the development of two different methods for contact uplift measurement using vision-based system and wireless online monitoring system. Our vision-based system employs a high-speed CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) camera with gigabit ethernet LAN. The development of a real-time remote monitoring system that acquires data from any kind of sensor to be transmitted by wireless communication from overhead line and structure at 25 kV to a computer in catenary system. The proposed two kind of different measurement systems to evaluation for dynamic uplift of overhead contact wire shows promising on-field applications for high speed train such as Korea Tilting Train (TTX) and Korea Train eXpress (KTX).
