지하매설물을 탐지하는 기술에는 매설물의 송신기(transmitter)를 이용하여 전자기장을 가하여 매설물을 자화시켜 땅위의 상부에서 자속을 감지하여 매설물의 위치를 찾아내는 기술로 현재 가장 널리 사용되는 방식이다. 본 논문에서는 땅속에 일정 자계를 형성하여 그 자속 변화를 감지해 매설물 유무를 판단하는 방식과 지하매설물의 탐지시스템의 제어 및 표시 장치의 설계와 구성에 대하여 제안하였다. 또한 지하매설물의 탐지시스템의 시뮬레이션을 통하여 지하매설물의 판단 유무를 측정할 수 있음을 보였다.

As the supply of electric vehicles increases, research on wireless charging methods for convenience has been increasing. Because the electric vehicle wireless transmission device is installed on the ground and the electric vehicle battery is installed on the floor of the vehicle, the transmission and reception antennas are approximately 15-30 cm away, and thus strong magnetic fields are exposed during wireless charging. When a metallic foreign object is placed in the magnetic field area, an eddy current is induced to the metallic foreign object, and heat is generated, creating danger of fire and burns. Therefore, this study proposes a method to detect metallic foreign objects in the magnetic field area of a wireless electric vehicle charging system. An active detection-only coil array was used, and an LC resonance circuit was constructed for the frequency of the supply power signal. When a metallic foreign object is inserted into the charging zone, the characteristics of the resonance circuit are broken, and the magnitude and phase of the voltage signal at both ends of the capacitor are changed. It was confirmed that the proposed method has about 1.5 times more change than the method of comparing the voltage magnitude at one node.

Conventional handheld metal detectors use a single induction coil to detect the metallic parts of explosive objects, and the detector generates an acoustic signal from its magnetic response to a metallic object so that an operator can confirm the existence of mines. Though metal detectors have very useful detection mechanisms to find mines, it is easy to cause a high false alarm ratio due to the detection of non-explosive metallic items such as cans, nails and other pieces of metal, etc. Also, because of the physical characteristic of a metal detector it is hard to detect non-metallic objects such as mines made of wood or plastic. Furthermore, the operator must move it to the left and right slowly and repeatedly to attain enough sensor signals to confirm the existence of mines using only a monotonous acoustic signal. To resolve the disadvantages of handheld detectors, many new approaches have been attempted, such as an arrayed detector and a visualization algorithm based on metal/non-metal sensor. In this paper, we introduce a visualization algorithm with a metal/non-metal complex sensor, an arrayed metal/non-metal sensor and the their testing and evaluation.

Purpose: To assess the effects of object position in the field of view (FOV) and application of a metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm on the diagnostic accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the detection of vertical root fractures(VRFs). Materials and Methods: Sixty human single-canal premolars received root canal treatment. VRFs were induced in 30 endodontically treated teeth. The teeth were then divided into 4 groups, with 2 groups receiving metal posts and the remaining 2 only having an empty post space. The roots from different groups were mounted in a phantom made of cow rib bone, and CBCT scans were obtained for the 4 different groups. Three observers evaluated the images independently. Results: The highest frequency of correct diagnoses of VRFs was obtained with the object positioned centrally in the FOV, using the MAR algorithm. Peripheral positioning of the object without the MAR algorithm yielded the highest sensitivity for the first observer (66.7%). For the second and third observers, a central position improved sensitivity, with or without the MAR algorithm. In the presence of metal posts, central positioning of the object in the FOV significantly increased the diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy compared to peripheral positioning. Conclusion: Diagnostic accuracy was higher with central positioning than with peripheral positioning, irrespective of whether the MAR algorithm was applied. However, the effect of the MAR algorithm was more significant with central positioning than with peripheral positioning of the object in the FOV. The clinical experience and expertise of the observers may serve as a confounder in this respect.

A machine vision based industrial inspection includes defects detection and classification. Fast inspection is a fundamental problem for many applications of real-time vision systems. It requires little computation time and localizing defects robustly with high accuracy. Deep learning technique have been known not to be suitable for real-time applications. Recently a couple of fast region-based CNN algorithms for object detection are introduced, such as Faster R-CNN, and YOLOv2. We apply these methods for an industrial inspection problem. Three CNN based detection algorithms, VOV based CNN, Faster R-CNN, and YOLOv2, are experimented for defect detection on metal surface. The results for inspection time and various performance indices are compared and analysed.

This paper proposed a new magnetic field detection algorithm to detect metal pieces in food producing processes. This algorithm can detect mixed metal pieces by sensing magnetic field. Some metal pieces are passed through an over-current circuit to magnetize them. The magnetic field sensor can detect the change in the magnetic field on theconveyor belt caused by the flow of the metal pieces in the food product. However, such a method detects the output of signals that change their amplitude and phase according to the movement of the conveyor belt with the food product, in which the equilibrium of the positive signal that is created in the receiver coil loses its balance due to the magnetized material. This includes not only the signal elements resulting from the effect of the alternating magnetic fields of the mixed metals, but also the signal elements resulting from the effect of the alternating magnetic fields of the examined object itself.

FOD(Foreign Object Debris) has the potential threat to damage aircraft during critical phases of take-off and landing roll with some objects including metal on the runway. FOD can be found anywhere on an airport's air operation areas such as runway, taxiway and apron. It can lead to catastrophic loss of life and airframe, and increased maintenance and operating costs. In this paper, we defined FOD and surveyed its riskiness and necessity of automatic FOD detection system. We compared the requirements of the environment in Korea to the FAA advisory circular. Also we analyzed operation methods of FOD detection systems already installed at some airports. Based on the surveys mentioned above, we propose hybrid type of FOD detection system considering the environment in Korea which uses millimeter wave radar, optical camera and thermal imaging camera to detect FOD efficiently. In management approach, fixed type of the system should be installed for real-time monitoring, and mobile type of the system can be used additionally.

FOD (foreign object debris)는 각종 금속 및 비금속 이물질 및 항공기 운항에 잠재적 위험요소를 가진 물질을 총칭한다. 항공기 이동지역에서 사람이 직접 FOD 탐지 및 수거를 하던 방식은 효율성 및 경제성 또한 매우 낮기 때문에 국내환경에 적합한 FOD 자동 탐지 시스템 개발이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 한서대학교 태안비행장에서 EO/IR카메라 및 레이더를 이용한 고정형 이물질 자동 탐지 시스템과 이동형 이물질 자동 탐지 시스템을 이용하여 100 m이상 최적탐지시간과 90% 탐지 정확도의 복합운영을 위한 두 시스템의 성능비교 실험 결과이다. 지속적인 연구개발을 통하여 FOD를 무인력으로 수행 할 수 있을것으로 기대된다.

현재 국내에서 구축·운영 중인 문형금속탐지장비는 제조사마다 탐지감도가 다소 상이하여 항공보안 등급에 따른 단계별 적용이 어려운 실정이다. 또한 국내 항공보안 감독기관이 승인한 점검용 시험물품(FAA 3-GUN Test)은 단일 시험물품으로 문형금속탐지장비의 항공보안 등급별 운영을 위한 복수 시편으로 구성된 시험물품이 부재한 상황이다. 본 논문에서는 국내 구축 및 운영 중인 문형금속탐지장비에 대해 상용 시험물품을 적용한 탐지감도 측정시험을 실시하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 문형금속탐지장비 탐지감도 기준을 마련하였다. 또한 항공분야 특성을 고려한 한국형 표준 시험물품(OTP) 개발 방안 제시를 통해, 국내 항공보안등급별 동일 감도를 유지 할 수 있는 제도적 방안을 제시하였다.
