The black box model is a relatively new option for nonlinear dynamic system identification. It can be used for prediction problems just based on analyzing the input and output data without considering the changes of the internal structure. In this paper, a black box model was presented to solve unconstrained overlying strata movement problems in coal mine production. Based on the black box theory, the overlying strata regional system was viewed as a "black box", and the black box model on overburden strata movement was established. Then, the rock mechanical properties and the mining thickness and mined-out section area were selected as the subject and object respectively, and the influences of coal mining on the overburden regional system were discussed. Finally, a corrected method for height prediction of the fractured zone was obtained. According to actual mine geological conditions, the measured geological data were introduced into the black box model of overlying strata movement for height calculation, and the fractured zone height was determined as 40.36 m, which was comparable to the actual height value (43.91 m) of the fractured zone detected by Double-block Leak Hunting in Drill. By comparing the calculation result and actual surface subsidence value, it can be concluded that the proposed model is adaptable for height prediction of the fractured zone.

According to the National Fire Data System (NFDS), more than 5,000 vehicle fires have occurred every year for the last 10 years. Vehicle fires are primarily caused by mechanical (breaking system and engine), electrical (wiring and battery), and chemical (oil and fuel gas leakage) problems. The electrical factor has increased with the installation of driver convenience equipment. For example, today, the black box is widely used to provide video data recording of motor vehicle accidents. The black box consists of a front camera, rear camera, and wires. The black box wires are directly connected to the junction box or fuse box from the start battery that operates to provide normal on power supplying for engine stop. It is extremely dangerous when the wires short circuit due to insulation aging, mechanical and electrical stress, etc. In this study, the black box wiring fire risk have been analyzed and investigated when the steady state and abnormal operations, and under the following conditions: wiring arrangements with a high temperature condition, insulation aging, poor contact, and short circuits. The results showed that black box wiring short circuits had a higher fire risk than the other fire hazard elements. To prevent fire hazards caused by black box wiring, the black boxes must be installed by qualified service personnel. Do not modify the wiring, remove the fuse and secure the wiring using cable ties or insulation tape.

To overcome the problems of the existing black box which is exposed to the risk of blind spots in the imaging of a fixed front and rear views of an object, this paper suggests a new intelligent black box that can detect and shoot side views of an object. This paper proposes an algorithm of the intelligent black box with a rotating function in order to compensate for the side blind spot of the vehicle. This intelligent black box with rotating screen adopts the infrared distance sensor to sense an object which approaches to the vehicle and rotates automatically towards the object.

An automobile black box can provide sufficient and accurate information for investigating the causes of vehicle accidents as well as preventing them in the future. The database of accident information from stored data in the black box can provide a variety of services to the general public when it is accessed in a reasonable manner. minimizing intrusion into drivers' privacy. Therefore, the black box could become the main intelligent automobile Part, with extensive benefits for all associated industries as well as government agencies and insurance companies. While the introduction and spread of the black box are imminent in Korea, this paper reviews technology and product trends of the black box. In particular, this paper presents findings on the investigation of black box-related patent applications and an in-depth study of core patents from several leading counties, including the United States. In addition, this paper describes trends of standardization and legislation in leading countries and presents methods of standardization with suggestions for some development topics related to black box technology.

This paper proposes a method for expensive black box optimization using radial basis functions (RBFs). The proposed algorithm is a computational strategy that uses a RBF model approximating the expensive black box function to predict an optimum. First, a RBF-based approximation technique is introduced and a sampling plan for estimation of the black box function is described. Then the proposed algorithm is explained, which presents the pseudo-codes for implementation and the detailed description of each step performed in the optimization process. In addition, numerical experiments will be given to analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm, by investigating computation accuracy, number of function evaluations, and convergence history. Finally, geometric distance problem as application example will be also presented for showing the algorithm applicability to different engineering problems.

This paper presents design concepts, specifications and performances of a newly developed Black Box, the reconstruction analysis tool with the records, and results of validation tests. The Black Box can detect crash accidents automatically, and record the vehicle's motion and driver's maneuvers during a pre-defined time period before and after the accident. The items of the Black Box included the acceleration, yaw-rate, vehicle speed, engine RPM, braking application, steering and several digital inputs for recording driver's maneuvers. To detect the accident-related-crash, it is important to understand characteristics of the crash signal, which are much different from those of normal driving. Therefore, analytical considerations should be taken in designing pre-filtering circuits and selecting appropriate parameters for identifying crash accidents. And, it is necessary to select proper combination of motion sensors and design proper pre-filtering circuits in order to describe the vehicle's motion. The analysis algorithms were developed and implemented which can perform accurate detection of crash accidents, simulating pre-crash trajectories, and calculating parameters for reconstruction analysis of crash accidents. The developed Black Box was installed on passenger cars and several types of validation tests were conducted. Through the tests, the accuracy of the recorded data and usefulness of the analysis tool for reconstruction have been validated.

Due to vehicle personal injury accident does not, and to analyze the cause and prevention of a variety of devices and technologies are coming out. Among other things, representative of the black box, and rear camera. Despite these advances in technology, and vehicle human injuries continue to occur. The reason for this is that the children, the negligence of the driver or the vehicle is in reverse when a person suddenly passed the back of the vehicle, or the rear of the existing detection system is properly detected was unable to. Therefore, In this paper, we want to design a black box to reveal the cause of the accident, using Kinect to prevent accidents, rear-view camera and rear integrated black box system.
