Throughout CGL(Continuous Galvanizing Line) in steel works, zinc-coated steel sheets are produced which are used where long-running corrosion resistivity is required. During the galvanizing process, top dross is created and floated on the zinc pot. Because the dross leaves ill patterns on the coated sheets, it is removed manually with shovel-like tools in about twenty minutes. Because, however, the working environment is very noisy, hot and harmful to human workers, a robot system is developed and implemented on a real plant to automatically remove the top dross. It consists of a robot and its carriage system, a pot level sensor, a system controller, and special tools to collect, pick up, and put the top dross into a dross waste basket. A system software is developed to monitor the system status. A series of tests were performed to verify the robot motion and adaptation to working conditions, and proved successful work.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of vibration-driven electromagnetic energy harvester without spring to use at low frequency like a human body motion. The implemented energy harvester consists of NdFeB magnets, copper coil. The optimization of induced voltage was done by the various widths of coil, number of the turns, size of fixed and moving magnets and thicknesses of the cylinder. The fabricated energy harvester is capable of producing up to 15.0 $V_{pp}$ for basic model and 28.80 $V_{pp}$ for improved model at 5.0 Hz resonance frequency and 0.75 g acceleration level. The basic model and improved model are provided a maximum power of 6.375 mWand 25.831 mW at 1 KHz of load resistance in rectifier circuit.

The service robot, with stereo vision system and dual manipulator of four degree of freedom, has been designed. A fuzzy controller has been implemented for effectively actuating the manipulator of the robot. The fuzzy controller determines operation mode(single or dual manipulators) and orientation from the information of object position and distance. Through actual experimentation, we have confirmed that the robot system with human-like movement of grabber has been executed a rapid and effective motion.

A simple efficient method of spotting and recognizing hand gestures in video is presented using a network of hidden Markov models and dynamic programming search algorithm. The description starts from designing a set of isolated trajectory models which are stochastic and robust enough to characterize highly variable patterns like human motion, handwriting, and speech. Those models are interconnected to form a single big network termed a spotting network or a spotter that models a continuous stream of gestures and non-gestures as well. The inference over the model is based on dynamic programming. The proposed model is highly efficient and can readily be extended to a variety of recurrent pattern recognition tasks. The test result without any engineering has shown the potential for practical application. At the end of the paper we add some related experimental result that has been obtained using a different model - dynamic Bayesian network - which is also a type of stochastic model.

사람들은 항상 사건들과 접하고 말소리 지각과 같은 사건을 지각하는데 별 어려움이 없다. 생물학적 운동의 지각과 마찬가지로, 말소리 지각에 대한 두 이론이 논쟁해 왔다. 이 논문의 목적은 말소리 지각에 대해 설명하고 말소리 지각에 대한 운동이론과 직접지각 이론을 비교하는 것이다. 운동이론학자들은 인간은 운동신경의 명령에 의해 말소리를 지각하고 생성해 내기 때문에 인간은 말소리 지각에 있어서 특별한 감각을 가지고 있다고 주장해 왔다. 하지만, 직접지각 이론학자들은 말소리 지각은 여느 다른 소리를 지각하는 것과 다르지 않다고 제안했다. 왜냐하면, 말소리를 지각하는 것은 다른 모든 사건을 지각하는 것과 마찬가지로 필요한 정보를 직접 탐지하면 되기 때문이다. 음성공학과의 융합에 있어서 이러한 인간의 기본적인 말소리 지각 능력을 먼저 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 이러한 말소리 지각에 대한 기본적인 이해는 인공 지능, 음성 인식 기술, 음성 인식 시스템 등에 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

For decades, simulation technique has been well validated in areas such as computer and communication systems. Recently, the technique has been much used in the area of transportation and traffic forecasting. Several methods have been proposed for investigating complex traffic flows. However, the dynamics of vehicles and diversities of driver characteristics have never been considered sufficiently in these methods, although they are considered important factors in traffic flow analysis. In this paper, we propose a traffic simulation tool called Multi-Agent for Traffic Simulation with Vehicle Dynamics Model (MATDYMO). Road transport consultants, traffic engineers and urban traffic control center managers are expected to use MATDYMO to efficiently simulate traffic flow. MATDYMO has four sub systems: the road management system, the vehicle motion control system, the driver management system, and the integration control system. The road management system simulates traffic flow for various traffic environments (e.g., multi-lane roads, nodes, virtual lanes, and signals); the vehicle motion control system constructs the vehicle agent by using various vehicle dynamic models; the driver management system constructs the driver agent capable of having different driving styles; and lastly, the integrated control system regulates the MATDYMO as a whole and observes the agents running in the system. The vehicle motion control system and driver management system are described in the companion paper. An interrupted and uninterrupted flow model were simulated, and the simulation results were verified by comparing them with the results from a commercial software, TRANSYT-7F. The simulation result of the uninterrupted flow model showed that the driver agent displayed human-like behavior ranging from slow and careful driving to fast and aggressive driving. The simulation of the interrupted flow model was implemented as two cases. The first case analyzed traffic flow as the traffic signals changed at different intervals and as the turning traffic volume changed. Second case analyzed the traffic flow as the traffic signals changed at different intervals and as the road length changed. The simulation results of the interrupted flow model showed that the close relationship between traffic state change and traffic signal interval.

In this paper, we describe a case of using robot technology in child studies to examine children's judgement and reasoning of the life phenomenon on boundary objects. In order to control the effects of the appearance of the robot, which children observe or interact directly with, on the children's judgement and reasoning of the life phenomenon, we developed a robot similar to human. Unit experimental scenarios representing biological and psychological properties were implemented based on control of robot's motion, speech, and facial expressions. Experimenters could combine these multiple unit scenarios in a cascade to implement various scenarios of the human-robot interaction. Considering that the experimenters are researchers of child studies, there was a need to develop a remote operation console that can be easily used by non-experts in the robot field. Using the developed robot platform, researchers of child studies could implement various scenarios by manipulating the biological and psychological properties of the robot based on their research hypothesis. As a result, we could clearly see the effects of robot's properties on children's understanding about boundary object like robots.

현재 진행되고 있는 대부분의 로봇 연구는 특정한 목적을 수행함에 있어서 기능적으로 안정적이고 원활한 움직임을 보이는 것과 더불어 사용자가 원하는 정보를 적절하게 전달하는 것에 초점을 맞춰 진행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 로봇의 작업수행 상태가 아닌 외부로부터 입력 값이 없는 대기상태의 행동패턴을 제시하여 보다 자연스러운 인간-로봇 상호작용을 제시하고자 하였다. 로봇의 대기상태 행동패턴을 디자인함에 있어서 비디오 판독 방법을 선택하였고, 실제 서비스업에 종사하는 10명의 사람들을 비디오로 녹화하여 사람들과 상호작용이 없는 대기상태의 반복적인 행동패턴을 관찰하였다. 각각의 비디오 데이터로부터 총 21개의 반복적 행동을 기록하였고, 비슷한 항목들을 통합하여 최종적으로 11개의 행동패턴을 추출하였다. 추출된 패턴들 가운데 6개의 대표적인 행동들을 EEEX라는 로봇에 적합하도록 인코딩 작업을 하였고, 이것들이 사람들에게 올바르게 인식되는지를 확인하기 위하여 검증실험을 수행하였다. 사람들은 대부분의 로봇 행동패턴을 실험에서 의도한 바와 같이 인식하였으나 로봇의 하드웨어 특성상 몸과 팔의 움직임에서 약간의 혼동 요소가 있었다. 추후 실험을 통해 EEEX를 대형 마트의 입구에 실제로 배치하여 대기 중에 중립행동을 보일 때와 보이지 않을 때의 손님의 관심도 차이를 조사해보고자 한다.
