  • It has been only a few years since drones have been introduced to Korea, and as the use of drones has increased in industrial sites as well as in hobby activities, accidents such as workers' body parts coming into contact with rotating propellers have been occurring since 2016. Industrial accident cases are being filed. In the case of a remote control vehicle, if you release the remote controller in the event of an abnormal situation, it stops in place and no further danger occurs but in case of drones flying over the sky is different. Sudden motor stops during flight, uncontrolled changes in flight posture, loss of radio waves, loose propeller, etc, numerous factors can lead to accidents due to unintentional movements. Therefore, drone operators need safety knowledge as well as high knowledge about drones. However, drones with a weight of less than 12 kg can fly without a pilot's certification, and therefore, a minimum accident prevention measure is required. 10 accidents approved as industrial accidents since 2016, 23 accidents surveyed by general drone operator, 40 accidents surveyed by the Korean Consumer Resources Unfortunately for the purpose of writing this paper, drones are a new species and do not have many parameters for analysis but my experience has shown that the type of disaster does not deviate significantly. In addition, there is no paper that analyzes drone related industrial accidents not only in Korea but also in other countries. However, even if you watch an overseas drone accident video through YouTube, it is not much different from the case that occurs in Korea. I hope that this study will be of little help to all the drone pilots as well as the work safety of industrial drones used in industrial sites.

  • A drone which was developed first for military purpose has been expanded to various civil areas, with its technological development. Of the drones developed for such diverse purposes, a drone for photography has a camera installed and is actively applied to a variety of image contents making, beyond filming and broadcasting. A drone for photography makes it possible to shoot present and dynamic images which were hard to be photographed with conventional photography technology. This study made a view finder which helps a drone operator to control a drone and directly view an object to shoot with the drone camera. The view finder for drones is a type of glasses. It was developed in the way of printing out the data modelled with 3D MAX in a 3D printer and installing a ultra-small LCD monitor. The view finder for drones makes it possible to fly a drone safely and achieve accurate framing of an object to shoot.

  • Recently, with a great deal of attention and utilization to the UAV like a drone, many application cases using UAV in various fields have been proliferated rapidly. These UAV, however, has many risks like balance deviation and drone crash due to the external environmental factors. The attitude control algorithm for UAV is the most important portion in order to maintain the safe management of UAV, and the best solution is PID control algorithm which is generously used and almost perfect attitude control technology nowadays. In this paper, we propose the smart attitude control algorithm using fuzzy logic in order to provide safe and continuous attitude control against external environmental factors, and compare the performance through simulation study between PID and our algorithm.

  • Drone technology has been used in various fields including personal hobby, pesticide application and shipping etc. However, only few drone technologies are used in restricted fields such as transportation of alimony goods and utilization of video because of the limited utilization aspect of disaster management field. Especially, disaster specialists' the lack of understanding of the drones seems to increase the difficulty of activating drone technology in disaster management. The theme of the thesis aims to share outline of drones' control method and education plan. This project also analysis the reasons why drone has not been used in disaster management with the fact that drone can be a vital part of emergency management. We propose improved application plan to use drone technology and future development direction in disaster management by deriving problems in terms of institutional aspects(regulation and education) and sensor-based application problems camera, thermal camera, infrared sensor, RFID.

  • In this paper, I propose a system development methodology that accepts images taken by camera attached to drone in real time while controlling mini drone and recognize and confirm the face of certain person. For the development of this system, OpenCV, Python related libraries and the drone SDK are used. To increase face recognition ratio of certain person from real-time drone images, it uses Deep Learning-based facial recognition algorithm and uses the principle of Triples in particular. To check the performance of the system, the results of 30 experiments for face recognition based on the author's face showed a recognition rate of about 95% or higher. It is believed that research results of this paper can be used to quickly find specific person through drone at tourist sites and festival venues.

  • This study was prevent the decrease in crop output by insect pests and spraying by application uniformity. A flight level 4 m height and 4-5 m/sec. speed are difficult to maintain with a agricultural drone for aerial application, which has been affected by the methods or environmental factors, such as changes in the wind. Therefore, which can allow a controlled application width and spray rate automatically and verified experimentally using drone. The sprayed particles began to decrease from about 3.75 m on the left and right sides of the spray nozzle. According to the number of particles, the effective spraying width was observed to be about 7.5 m, and it was verified that the proposed spraying system was effective in uniform control system.

  • On December 26, 2022, North Korea's drone provocation resumed for the first time in eight years. The threat covered not only the Seoul metropolitan area but also the no-fly zone for the presidential office's security, and the South Korean military's response to it is not appropriate, which is a major controversy. In the midst of this, problems caused by the prohibition of small drones' flight and illegal intrusion into restricted areas are increasing in Korea, and the threat is becoming a reality, such as being used for terrorist attacks abroad. In this paper, the concept of "Counter-Drone" and related technologies were considered for these drone threats, and implications were derived through domestic and overseas small drone threats, and the direction of development of the Counter-Drone system was presented. North Korea's drone threat is expected to be more diversified, massified, and advanced, resulting in bolder attacks and provocations. Therefore, the South Korean military should push for early powering of the integrated control system and the conter drone system, joint and military cooperation in response to the threat of small drones, and the ability to carry out joint operations between South Korea and the U.S.

  • Recently, as the amount of data collected by drones has rapidly increased, it is necessary to support cloud computing technology that can securely and efficiently store and process data. However, various security threats such as stealing, leaking, or tampering with data communicated by drones can occur due to attackers. Therefore, there is a need for security technology to provide secure communication of data collected from drones. Among various security technologies, the KP-ABE scheme, which is attribute-based encryption, is a security technology that satisfies two characteristics: data encryption and user access control. This paper researched the KP-ABE scheme and proposed a secure data access control scheme to the drone environment. This proposed scheme provides confidentiality and integrity of data communicated in a drone environment and secure access control and availability. In addition, it provides a fast ciphertext search and constant size ciphertext among the requirements to be provided in the KP-ABE scheme.
