This study was conducted to investigate the optimum environment for leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var. crispa) in a plant factory to increase mass-production efficiency of quality leaf lettuce. Transpiration rate and $CO_2$ assimilation rate were increased with increasing the photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD). The highest fresh weight and dry weight were observed at the PPFD of 200 and 300 U moi $m^{-2}$ $s^{-l}$, respectively. The optimum aerial environment for the growth and quality of leaf lettuce in the plant factory was determined to be over 200 $\mu$mol $m^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$ for PPFB. Although the interaction between light intensity and nutrient level was not significant, the lettuce growth was the best under electrical conductivity (EC) of 1.8 mS $cm^{-1}$ / at high light intensity (250 $\mu$mol $m^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$ ) and EC of 2.4 mS cm-1 at low light level (150 $\mu$mol $m^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$ ) respectively.y.

The subjects of this study are to examine and to apply the methods of making 1 : 10,000 scale digital maps using Russian's 2 m resolution satellite images of Alternative and 8 m resolution stereo satellite images of MK-4 for the Kyoha area of Paju-city where aerial-photo surveying is not possible. A digital elevation model (DEM) was calculated from MK-4 images. With this DEM, the Alternative images were orthorectified. Ground control points (GCP) were acquired from GPS surveyings and were used to perform geometric corrections on Alternative images. From field investigation, thematic attributes are digitized on the monitor. RMS errors of the planar and vertical positions are estimated to ${\pm}0.4$ m and ${\pm}15$ m, respectively. The planar accuracy is better than an accuracy required by NGIS (national GIS) programs. Local information from field investigation was added and the resulting maps should be good as base maps for, such as, regional and urban plannings.

This paper is to study the development of three dimensional Digital Surface Model (DSM) using photogrammetry technique based on self-developed Drone (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)). To develop DSM, we selected a study area in Jeju island and took 24 pictures from the drone. The three dimensional coordinates of the photos were made by Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) surveying with 10 ground control points (GCP). From the calculated three dimensional coordinates, we produced orthographic image and DSM. The accuracy of DSM was calculated using three GCPs. The average accuracy of X and Y was from 8.8 to 14.7 cm, and the accuracy of Z was 0.8 to 12.4 cm. The accuracy was less than the reference accuracy of 1/1,000 digital map provided by National Geographic Information Institute (NGII). From the results, we found that the self-developed drone and the photogrammetry technique are a useful tool to make DSM and digital map of Jeju.

Oak mushroom (Lentinus edodes) is cultivated by using oak logs and sawdust medium. Green mold (Trichoderma) infection on these media severely suppresses the growth of oak mushroom. Usages of antibiotics and chemicals are not generally allowed to control of green mold since the mushroom is a fresh food. Tolaasin and its analogues, peptide toxins secreted by Pseudomonas tolaasii, have the antifungal activity and they have been successful to control the green mold disease. When the green mold, Trichoderma harzianum H1, was cultured in the presence of these toxins, the growth of fungus was effectively suppressed. In sawdust media, when the bacterial culture supernatants were sprayed on the aerial hyphae of green molds, the fungal growth was completely suppressed. Particularly, the antifungal activity was greatly increased by the combined culture extracts of P. tolaasii 6264 and HK11 strains. Therefore, these bacterial strains and their peptide toxins were able to suppress the growth of green molds and these can be good candidates to prevent from Trichoderma disease in oak mushroom cultivation.

When new inertial navigation systems for an unmanned aerial vehicles are being developed and tested, construction of a fault-tolerant system is required because of various types of hazards caused by S/W and H/W faults. In this paper, a new fault-tolerant flight system that can be deployed into one or more FCCs (Flight Control Computers) is introduced, based on a partition scheme wherein each OFP (Operational Flight Program) partition uses an independent CPU and memory slot. The new fault-tolerant navigation system utilizes one or two FCCs, and executes a primary navigation OFP under development and a stable shadow OFP partition on each node. The fault-tolerant navigation system based on a single FCC can be used for UAVs with small payloads. For larger UAVs, an additional FCC with two OFP partitions can be used to provide both H/W and S/W fault-tolerance. The developed fault-tolerant navigation system significantly removes various hazards in testing new navigation S/Ws for UAVs.

In order to complete missions in a complicated terrain or highly dangerous area, an unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) needs a fine controller to precisely follow the desired path. A PID controller used for the path following feeds forward path curvature information to the control input to improve the path following performance. High gain for PID controller is necessary to follow path tightly. However the high gain could cause instability or performance degradation when the vehicle has slow dynamics. We present PID controller design method which considers response delay of vehicle as well as path curvature. In order to obtain path curvature the desired path is described as a 3rd order polynomial by applying cubic spline interpolation. We apply the proposed controller to the path following of a UAV which is operated in high altitude and has very slow lateral dynamics. The lateral dynamics are modelled as a first order delayed system in the controller design. Nonlinear simulation shows the UAV with proposed controller follows an arbitrary path very tightly.

The changes of technology and the size of markets for unmaned aerial vehicle are getting bigger presently. Damage happens because of user's poor operation since accesses to the drones are easy. To minimize the damage, drone's stabilized flight skills are required, and controlling the motor to balanced speed is also needed. Thus, the essay shows that we use Arduino as a main control device for controlling a drone, and used acceleration sensor and gyro sensor for the drone stabilization. Also, we made it able to hover at a certain height by using a sonar sensor. We also controlled a drone by using an Android application, and made the drone hover stably at 0~2 meters.

We developed a micro UAV based rapid mapping system that provides geospatial information of target areas in a rapid and automatic way. Users can operate the system easily although they are inexperienced in UAV operation and photogrammetric processes. For the aerial data acquisition, we constructed a micro UAV system mounted with a digital camera, a GPS/IMU, and a control board for the sensor integration and synchronization. We also developed a flight planning software and data processing software for the generation of geo-spatial information. The processing software operates automatically with a high speed to perform data quality control, image matching, georeferencing, and orthoimage generation. With the system, we have generated individual ortho-images within 30 minutes from 57 images of 3cm resolution acquired from a target area of $400m{\times}300m$.

The thrust vector control technique is essential for high maneuverability of unmanned aerial vehicles. In the present study, a multi-component balance was developed to quantitatively evaluate the thrust-vectoring performance of a supersonic rectangular nozzle based on the Coanda coflowing effect. Precise calibration and detailed data analysis were performed during the development. It was found that the cross-talk errors between load cells in the balance were less than 5%, and that the unwanted errors due to high-pressure supply tubes were almost negligible, which contributed to the high accuracy of the present balance design. Some preliminary test results of the thrust-vectoring performance of the present nozzle design were also obtained and analyzed.
