친환경 저에너지 중점의 건축설계의 중요성이 점점 커져가고 있다. 또 한편으로는 좀 더 미시적인 관점의 에너지 절약 설계 기법이 요구되고 있다. 이러한 분위기 속에서 에너지 시뮬레이션의 필요성이 점차 증가하고 있으며, 특히 BIM 기반의 에너지 시뮬레이션은 높은 효율성으로 인해 주목받고 있다. 하지만 BIM의 데이터는 아직까지는 미시적인 에너지와 관련된 파라메터가 적용되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구는 조도 센서에 의한 조명 제어 시뮬레이션을 통해 센서 조명 파라메터의 생성 필요성에 대해서 연구하고자 한다. 연구는 BIM을 통해 생성된 데이터를 바탕으로 조도 센서를 설치하고 조도 시뮬레이션을 통해 센서등의 스케줄 데이터를 생성하였다. 그리고 이렇게 생성된 스케줄 데이터를 바탕으로 에너지 시뮬레이션을 실시하여 소비전력의 감소율을 확인하였다. 연구에 따르면 조명에 따른 열부하량과 소비전력량이 각각 20%이상 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 센서 조명 파라메터는 미시적인 에너지 절약 설계를 위해서 BIM 데이터 내에 생성될 필요가 있다고 판단된다. 본 연구는 센서 조명 파라메터의 생성에 국한된 것이 아니라, 이와 같이 미시적인 변인들을 검토하고 BIM 데이터 내에 적용할 필요가 있음을 밝히기 위해 수행되었다.

This paper shows an implementation and management result of wireless networks based security light control system, which performs a great role in protection of pedestrians and prevention of crime. Conventional security light units have severe limits in confirmation and inspection of security light unit failure, like wilful damage by someone or failure by influence of other equipment or failure by spontaneous heat-increase, and so on. In addition, local government offices are responsible for maintenance of security light units and as a matter of fact, most of civil complaints are about security light units. It is an obvious that the existing security light maintenance system reaches the limit and the security light maintenance problem is a difficulty of local government. Therefore, efficient security light control system is needed, which enables central control and intelligent maintenance. Moreover, the system has to be easy to control and has to be stable. In this study, wireless sensor network based security light control system is implemented, which is independent of programming language and platform, and which is simple to control and extend the system. The proven protocols, HTTP and SOAP, are utilized in order to improve the system reliability. This paper shows the excellence of our proposed system by implementing and operating it in real environment.

In this paper, a wide dynamic range complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor with the adjustable sensitivity by using cascode metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) and inverter is proposed. The characteristics of the CMOS image sensor were analyzed through experimental results. The proposed active pixel sensor consists of eight transistors operated under various light intensity conditions. The cascode MOSFET is operated as the constant current source. The current generated from the cascode MOSFET varies with the light intensity. The proposed CMOS image sensor has wide dynamic range under the high illumination owing to logarithmic response to the light intensity. In the proposed active pixel sensor, a CMOS inverter is added. The role of the CMOS inverter is to determine either the conventional mode or the wide dynamic range mode. The cascode MOSFET let the current flow the current if the CMOS inverter is turned on. The number of pixels is $140(H){\times}180(V)$ and the CMOS image sensor architecture is composed of a pixel array, multiplexer (MUX), shift registers, and biasing circuits. The sensor was fabricated using $0.35{\mu}m$ 2-poly 4-metal CMOS standard process.

We introduce a new visible light communication (VLC) method in which three-level return-to-zero (RZ) modulation is used for flicker-free transmission. In the VLC transmitter, the three-level RZ modulation ensures that the average optical power is constant; thus, a flicker-free light-emitting diode (LED) light is achieved. In the VLC receiver, a resistor-capacitor high-pass filter is used for generating spike signals, which are used for data recovery while eliminating the 120 Hz optical noise from adjacent lighting lamps. In transmission experiments, we applied this method for wireless transmission of an air quality sensor message using the visible light of an LED array. This configuration is useful for the construction of indoor wireless sensor networks for air pollution monitoring using LED lights.

Planar PIN photodiode is compatible with LTPS process, and its fabrication requires no additional manufacturing process. In this study we design the optimum dimension of PIN diodes with two nitride layers to improve the efficiency of PIN diodes. The PIN photo sensor shows very good sensitivity to ambient light illuminance.

A fiber-optic pressure sensor is fabricated with a photoelastic glass material. To remove the influence of external pertubation along the optical fiber, a new referencing technique is proposed by using two light sources. LED with 870nm wavelength is used as light source for reference signal, and LED with 660nm wavelength is used as light source for modulation signal. The fiber-optic pressure sensor system shows good linearity within the pressure range of 0 to 5 $kg/cm^2$.

We present a novel non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) $CO_2$ gas sensor with a light source emitting collimated light. Using this thermopile, we also have successfully developed a small, sensitive NDIR $CO_2$ detector module for accurate air quality monitoring systems in energy-saving building and automotive applications. The novel sample cavity comprising specular reflectors around the light bulb is configured to uniformly emit collimated light into the entrance aperture of the cavity in order to enhance the sensitivity of NDIR $CO_2$ detector.

This paper presents an external light evasion method that rectifies the problem of misrecognition due to external lighting. The fundamental concept underlying the proposed method involves recognition of the differences between two images and elimination of the desynchronized external light by synchronizing the image sensor and inner light source of the optical touch screen. A range of artificial indoor light sources and natural sunlight are assessed. The proposed system synchronizes with a Vertical Synchronization (VSYNC) signal and the light source drive signal of the image sensor. Therefore, it can display synchronized light of the acquired image through the image sensor and remove external light that is not from the light source. A subtraction operation is used to find the differences and the absolute value of the result is utilized; hence, the order is irrelevant. The resulting image, which displays only a touched blob on the touchscreen, was created after image processing for coordination recognition and was then supplied to a coordination extraction algorithm.

Recently, a laser displacement sensor is widely used for the manufacturing automation. The sensor is generally composed of a diode laser and a light receiving device. The diode laser emits a laser beam and the receiving device detects the light reflected from the measured object. The object position is obtained based upon triangulation method. As a light receiving device, a PSD is usually utilized since its structure is very simple and rugged and has a high accuracy. Although the theoretical relationship for this sensor had been developed, the characteristics of the sensor have not been much experimentally studied. In this paper, several experimental results will presented. The measurement accuracy is affected by the surface conditions such as the reflectance characteristics, the angle of the object's surface and the laser intensity. In addition, it is found that the PSD and the signal processing circuit have nonlinearities and showed that those nonlinearities can be reduced by controlling the emitting laser intensity.

노트북, 테블릿 PC 및 스마트폰 등의 휴대 기기를 위한 디스플레이의 전력소모를 낮추기 위해, 주변 밝기에 따라서 디스플레이의 밝기를 조정할 수 있는 광 센서 시스템을 연구하였다. 또한, 휴대 기기의 복잡도와 비용에 크게 영향을 주지 않도록, 광 센서 시스템을 디스플레이 패널에 일체형으로 구현하고자 했으며, 이를 위해서 저온 다결정 실리콘 박막트렌지스터를 이용하여 패널에 광 센서와 신호취득 회로를 집적하고자 했다. 주변 밝기를 감지하는 광 센서의 패널 간 편차를 별도의 공정 설비없이 신뢰성 있게 보정할 수 있도록, 새로운 보정 방식을 제안하였다. 이와 더불어 최종 데이터를 디지털화하기 위한 아날로그-디지털 변환기를 포함한 신호취득 회로를 제안하고 검증하였다. 제안하는 회로는 집적하기에 적합하도록 간단한 구동 신호로 동작되며, 인식 가능한 입력 밝기는 10에서 10,000 lux까지이다. 제안하는 신호취득 회로의 신호취득 주파수는 100Hz이며, 20개의 출력 레벨에 대한 최대 차등 불균일 오차는 0.5 LSB 이하이다.
