Now that the development of autonomous driving is progressing, LiDAR has become an indispensable element. However, LiDAR is a device that uses lasers, and laser side effects may occur. One of them is the much-talked-about eye-safety, and developers have been satisfying this through laser characteristics and operation methods. But eye-safety is just one of the problems lasers pose. For example, irradiating a laser with a specific energy level or higher in a dusty environment can cause deterioration of the dust particles, leading to a sudden explosion. For this reason, the dust ignition proof regulations clearly state that "a source with a pulse period of less than 5 seconds is considered a continuous light source, and the average energy does not exceed 5 mJ/mm 2 or 35 mW" [2]. Energy of output optical power is limited by the law. In this way, the manufacturer cannot define the usage environment of the LiDAR, and the development of a LiDAR that can be used in such an environment can increase the ripple effect in terms of use in application fields using the LiDAR. In this paper, we develop a LiDAR with low optical power that can be used in environments where high power lasers can cause problems, evaluate its performance. Also, we discuss and present one of the directions for the development of LiDAR with laser power limited by dust ignition proof regulations.

Minor mergers leave behind long lived, but extremely faint and extended tidal features including tails, streams, loops and plumes. These act as a fossil record for the host galaxy's past interactions, allowing us to infer recent accretion histories and place constraints on the properties and nature of a galaxy's dark matter halo. However, shallow imaging or small homogeneous samples of past surveys have resulted in weak observational constraints on the role of galaxy mergers and interactions in galaxy assembly. The Rubin Observatory, which is optimised to deliver fast, wide field-of-view imaging, will enable deep and unbiased observations over the 18,000 square degrees of the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), resulting in samples of potentially of millions of objects undergoing tidal interactions. Using realistic mock images produced with state-of-the-art cosmological simulations we perform a comprehensive theoretical investigation of the extended diffuse light around galaxies and galaxy groups down to low stellar mass densities. We consider the nature, frequency and visibility of tidal features and debris across a range of environments and stellar masses as well as their reliability as an indicator of galaxy accretion histories. We consider how observational biases such as projection effects, the point-spread-function and survey depth may effect the proper characterisation and measurement of tidal features, finding that LSST will be capable of recovering much of the flux found in the outskirts of L* galaxies at redshifts beyond local volume. In our simulated sample, tidal features are ubiquitous In L* galaxies and remain common even at significantly lower masses (M*>10^10 Msun). The fraction of stellar mass found in tidal features increases towards higher masses, rising to 5-10% for the most massive objects in our sample (M*~10^11.5 Msun). Such objects frequently exhibit many distinct tidal features often with complex morphologies, becoming increasingly numerous with increased depth. The interpretation and characterisation of such features can vary significantly with orientation and imaging depth. Our findings demonstrate the importance of accounting for the biases that arise from projection effects and surface-brightness limits and suggest that, even after the LSST is complete, much of the discovery space in low surface-brightness Universe will remain to be explored.

미약한 광원 및 조명이 존재하는 환경에서 획득된 저조도 영상에는 많은 색 왜곡이 발생한다. 이러한 색 왜곡은 해당 비전 시스템의 성능 저하를 발생시킬 수 있는 원인이 된다. 따라서 저조도 영상의 원래 색을 찾는 과정은 비전 시스템의 성능 향상을 위한 중요한 과정이다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 저조도 영상을 대상으로 한 이색도 반사 모델 기반의 색 복원 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 이색도 반사 모델을 기반으로 저조도 영상을 확산 반사와 정반사의 영향을 받는 영역으로 구분한다. 이후 각 영역에 미치는 조명 효과를 제거하기 위하여 grey world 기법과 MSRCR 기법을 적용한다. 마지막으로, 두 기법을 적용하여 생성된 결과 영상에 대해 위치별 가중치를 이용하여 두 영상을 조합하여 최종 결과 영상을 생성한다. 본 논문에서는 성능 평가를 위하여 저조도 합성 영상을 사용하였고, 유클리드 거리 및 각 오차를 성능 평가 요소로 활용하였다. 또한 기존에 연구되었던 다양한 기법과의 성능 비교를 수행하여 성능 평가의 객관성을 확보하였다. 다양한 영상 셋을 이용한 실험에서 제안한 기법은 기존의 기법들에 비해 두 성능 평가요소 관점에서 GTD 영상에 가까운 색 복원이 가능함을 보였다.

Emergency lights and exit signs are an indispensable part of safety precautions for effective evacuation in case of emergency in public buildings. These emergency sign indicates safe escape routes and emergency doors, using an internationally recognizable sign. However visibility of those signs drops drastically in case of emergency situations like fire smoke, etc. and loss of visibility causes serious problems for safety evacuation. This paper propose a novel emergency light and exit sign built-in with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Beacon to assist the emergency self-guiding evacuation using devices for crisis and emergency management to avoid panic condition inside the buildings. In this approach, the emergency light and exit sign with the BLE beacons deployed in the indoor environments and the smart devices detect their indoor positions, direction to move, and next exit sign position from beacon messages and interact with map server in the Internet / Intranet over the available LTE and/or Wi-Fi network connectivity. The map server generate an optimal emergency exit path according to the nearest emergency exit based on a novel graph generation method for less route computation for each smart device. All emergency exit path data interfaces among three system components, the emergency exit signs, map server, and smart devices, have been defined for modular implementation of our emergency evacuation system. The proposed exit sign experimental system has been deployed and evaluated in real-time building environment thoroughly and gives a good evidence that the modular design of the proposed exit sign system and a novel approach to compute emergency exit path route based on the BLE beacon message, map server, and smart devices is competitive and viable.

국경 GOP(General Out Post)나 해안선 지역에 설치되어 운용되는 국방용 감시카메라는 급변하는 기상 및 조명환경에 의해 영상의 화질이 왜곡되고 열화되는 현상이 빈번하게 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기상 및 조명환경 변화에 적응적인 화질개선 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존 화질개선 알고리즘은 급변하는 환경조건에서 영상에 따라 극심한 성능편차를 보이는 문제점이 있는데, 이를 해결하기 위해 레티넥스(Retinex) 모델을 근간으로 환경변화에 적응적인 보정곡선을 이용하여 안개 및 저조도 환경에서 영상의 가시성을 향상시켜 높은 대비와 색상을 자연스럽게 재현하였고 실시간 환경변화에 적응토록 하였다. 또한, HSV 색모델을 가중 혼합하여 색 항상성 (Color Constancy)을 유지시켰으며, 개선과정 중 잡음(Noise)을 제거하여 보다 선명한 영상을 출력토록 하였다. 제안 알고리즘은 실험을 통해 기존 알고리즘 대비 주관적 평가인 MOS 1단계 향상효과 및 객관적 평가인 PSNR 15% 성능향상의 우수성을 입증하였다. 향후 국방감시 카메라 및 시스템에 적용되어 GOP나 해안선 지역의 열악한 기상조건으로부터 열화된 영상을 개선하여 적 침투 및 경계감시 식별에 도움을 주어 시스템의 신뢰성 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

상용의 전자기 가속도 센서에 비해 신호의 안정성 면에서 우수하고 가격이 저렴하며 제작이 비교적 용이한 필름 격자를 이용한 광세기 방식의 새로운 가속도 센서를 제안하고 이를 제작하였다. 외부의 진동에 반응하는 외팔보(cantilever beam)에 서로 주기가 어긋난 2장의 진폭 변조용 필름 격자가 나란히 부착되어 이 필름격자를 지나가는 출력광이 외부진동에 따라 서로 다른 위상으로 변조된다. 이 두 필름격자에 의한 출력의 위상각을 이용하여 출력광 신호의 위상을 구하고, 위상 연속화 과정을 거쳐 외팔보의 변위를 계산하여 가속도 환산 관계식을 통해 가속도를 측정하였다. 본 논문의 필름 격자를 이용한 광섬유 가속도 센서는 대형 구조물 및 토목 구조물의 모니터링에 알맞은 7 Hz 이하의 저주파 대역에서 사용 가능하도록 설계하였다. 이 광섬유 가속도 센서는 광섬유를 이용하였으므로 전자기적 노이즈가 예상되는 곳에서도 구조물의 진동 측정에 적합하다.

In order to understand the vegetative role of Glycine soja, we studied the basic physiological characteristics between Glycine soja and Glycine max. For this study, the light intensity (μmol m^-2 s^-1) on leaf surface, leaf temperature (℃), transpiration rate (mmol m^-2 s^-1), photosynthetic rate (μmol m^-2 s^-1), substomatal CO₂ partial pressure (vpm) of Glycine soja and Glycine max were measured, and the quantum yield, photosynthesis rate per substomatal CO₂ partial pressure were calculated. In the results of simple regression analysis, the increasing quantum yield decreases leaf temperature both of Glycine soja and Glycine max and the increasing leaf temperature decreases transpiration rate in case of Glycine soja. However, in case of Glycine max, the increasing leaf temperature decreases substomatal CO₂ partial pressure, photosynthetic rate, and photosynthetic rate per substomatal CO₂ partial pressure as well as transpiration rate. Also, increasing transpiration rate increases substomatal CO₂ partial pressure while decreases photosynthetic rate per substomatal CO₂ partial pressure. Thus, Glycine soja is relatively more easily adaptable to severe environments with low soil nutrients and high light levels. Compared to Glycine max susceptible to water loss due to a water-poor terrestrial habitat, the physiological traits of Glycine soja has a high average transpiration rate and are less susceptible to water loss will act as a factor that limits the habitat according to soil moisture.

Indium (In) is widely used for transparent electrodes of photovoltaics as a form of indium tin oxide (ITO) due to its superior characteristics of environmental stability, relatively low electrical resistivity and high transparency to visible light. However, In has been worn off in proportion to growth the In related market, and it leads to raise of price. Although In is obtained from ITO target scarps, much harmful elements are used for the recycling process. To decrease of harmful elements, ITO swarf particles obtained from target scraps was characterized whether it is feasible to transparent conductive oxide (TCO). The ITO swarf was crushed with milling process, and it was mixed with new ITO nanoparticles. The mixed particles were well dispersed into ink solvent to make-up an ink, and it was well coated onto glass substrate. After heat-treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ under $N_2$ rich environments, optical transmittance at 550 nm and sheet resistance of the ITO ink coated layer was 71.6% and $524.67{\Omega}/{\square}$, respectively. Therefore, it was concluded that the ITO swarf was feasible to TCO of touch screen panel.

This paper presented a design and control of a biped walking RGO(robotic gait orthosis) and its simulation. The biped walking RGO was distinguished from the other one by which had a very light-weight and a new RGO system will be made of 12-servo motors and 12-controllers. The vibration evaluation of the dynamic PLS(posterior leaf splint) on the biped walking RGO was used to access by the 3-axis accelerometer with a low frequency vibration of less than 30 Hz. The galt of the biped walking RGO depends on the constrains of mechanical kinematics and the initial posture. The stability of dynamic walking was investigated by analyzing the ZMP (zero moment point) of the biped walking RGO. It was designed according to the human wear type and was able to accomodate itself to the environments of S.C.I. Patients. The Joints of each leg were adopted with a good kinematic characteristics. To analyse joint kinematic properties. we made the strain stress analysis of the dynamic PLS and the analysis study of FEM with a dynamic PLS.
