We propose a remote controlled robot manipulator using force feedback joystick. User can control easily 5 d.o.f robot manipulator in 3 demensional space using general joystick. A force sensor attached in developed gripper sends signal to main robot controller so as to know gripper grasp the object. The signal also sent to user through force feedback joystick. We designed a dexterous 5 d.o.f robot manipulator analysis the kinematics and inverse kinematics. The robot was simply developed using serial RC motor. As a main robot controller, we use 32bit MPU(AT91SAM7256) and micro C/OS. To show the validity of our developed robot, a several experiments were demonstrated.

Voltammetric characterization of hydrophilic anion transfer processes across a 66 microhole array interface between the water and polyvinylchloride-2-nitrophenyloctylether gel layer is demonstrated. Since the transfer of hydrophilic anions including $Br^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $I^-$, $SCN^-$ and $ClO_4{^-}$ across the liquid/gel interface usually sets the potential window within a negative potential region, a highly hydrophobic organic electrolyte, tetraoctylammonium tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate, providing a wider potential window was incorporated into the gel phase. The transfer reaction of perchlorate anions across the microhole-water/gel interface was first studied using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The full voltammetric response of perchlorate anion transfer was then used as a reference for evaluating the half-wave transfer potentials, the formal transfer potentials and the formal Gibbs transfer energies of more hydrophilic anions such as $Br^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $I^-$, and $SCN^-$. The current response associated with the perchlorate anion transfer across the micro-water/gel interface versus the perchlorate concentration was also demonstrated for sensing applications.

Nowadays, the increasing demands upon mobile devices such as wireless sensor networks and the recent advent of low power electrical devices such as MEMS make such renewable power sources attractive. A vibration-driven MEMS lead zirconate titanate $Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3$ (PZT) cantilever device is developed for energy harvesting application. This paper presents a piezoelectric based energy harvester which is suitable for power generating from conventional vibration and has in providing energy for low power electron ic devices. The PZT cantilever is used d33 mode to get the electrical power. The PZT cantilever based energy harvester with the dimension of 7 mm${\times}$3 mm${\times}$0.03 mm is fabricated using micromachining technologies. This PZT cantilever has the mechanical resonance frequency with a 900 Hz. With these conditions, we get experimentally the 37 uW output power from this device with the application of 1g acceleration using the 900 Hz vibration. From this study, we show the feasibility of one of energy harvesting candidates using PZT based structure. This PZT energy harvester could be used for various applications such a batteryless micro sensors and micro power generators.

The utilization of micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) gyros and accelerometers in low-level inertial measurement unit (IMU) influences cost effectiveness in a positive way under the condition that device error characteristics are fully calibrated. The conventional calibration process utilizes a rate table; however, this paper proposes a new method for achieving reference calibration data from the natural motion of pendulum to which the IMU undergoing calibration is attached. This concept was validated with experimental data. The pendulum angle measurements correlate extremely well with the solutions acquired from the pendulum equation of motion. The calibration data were computed using the regression method. The whole process was validated by comparing the measurement from the 6 sensor components with the measurements reconstructed using the identified calibration data.

This paper reports a new technology to implement complex PDMS microchannels, which are simply constructed using three-dimensional photoresist structures as mold for PDMS replica process. The process utilizes LOR resist as a sacrificial layer to levitate the structural photoresist and multi-step exposure to control the thicknesses of photoresist structures. Various shapes of photoresist structures were successfully fabricated. Using the PDMS replica method, the three-dimensional photoresist structures are demonstrated to be applicable for implementing complex microchannels in PDMS. In addition, more complex multilevel microchannels are constructed by bonding two PDMS layers with just single PDMS alignment.

본 연구는 토마토의 풋마름병 감염 여부를 더 빠르게 예측하고 객관적으로 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 식물 생체정보 센서를 이용하여 풋마름 병원균을 접종한 토마토에서 풋마름병에 감염되어 증상을 보이기까지의 식물체의 양수분 이동 속도를 측정하였다. 토마토의 양수분 이동 속도를 측정했을 때 육안으로 보이는 풋마름 증상이 나타나기 약 2 내지 3일 전부터 풋마름병에 감염된 토마토의 양수분 이동 속도가 감염되지 않은 토마토에 비해 감소하는 것을 볼 수 있었고 이 결과는 생물검정과 생육조사 결과와도 일치하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 따라서 이상의 결과를 볼 때 식물 생체정보 센서를 이용하여 식물의 양수분 이동 속도를 측정함으로써 풋마름병을 조기 진단할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

X-ray용 CMOS 영상 센서의 대조 해상도는 신호처리부 첫 단의 sample-and-hold 회로에서 단일 MOS 스위치를 사용하거나 이를 개선한 bootstrapped clock circuit을 스위치로 사용할 경우에도 높은 신호에서 제한되는 문제를 가지고 있다. Bootstrapped clock circuit을 이용하는 sample-and-hold 회로가 charge injection 현상으로 인해 sample 신호의 왜곡을 일으키기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 계산을 통해 필요로 하는 범위의 L(Inductor)값 구현을 위해 표준 CMOS 공정에서 구현 가능한 micro-inductor를 3차원 구조로 설계하였고, 이를 이용하여 센서의 대조 해상도 혹은 ENOB(Effective number of bit)값이 향상된 sample-and-hold 회로를 제안하였다. 0.35 um CMOS 공정에서 BCC를 이용해 설계된 sample-and-hold 회로에 최적화된 L 값을 갖는 micro-inductor를 추가하여 ENOB가 17.64 bit에서 18.34 bit로 약 0.7 bit의 해상도 상승을 시뮬레이션으로 검증하였다. 제안된 micro-inductor 방법은 고해상도를 필요로 하는 mammography의 경우 환자가 받는 방사선량을 줄이는 효과가 있을 것으로 기대한다.

In this paper, we investigate the characteristics of a piezoresistive AFM cantilever in the range of $0\~30{\mu}N$ by using nano force calibrator (NFC), which consists of a high precision balance with resolution of 1 nN and 1-D fine positioning stage. Brief modeling of the cantilever is presented and then, the calibration results are shown. Tests revealed a linear relationship between the probing force and sensor output (resistance change), and the force vs. deflection. From this relationship, the force constant of the cantilever was calculated to 3.45 N/m with a standard deviation of 0.01 N/m. It shows that there is a big difference between measured and nominal spring constant of 1 N/m provided by the manufacturer s specifications.

A novel stick-shaped portable sensing device featuring a microhole array interface between the polyvinylchloride-2-nitrophenyloctylether (PVC-NPOE) gel and water phase was developed for in-situ sensing of perchlorate ions in real water samples. Perchlorate sensitive sensing responses were obtained based on measuring the current changes with respect to the assisted transfer reaction of perchlorate ions by a perchlorate selective ligand namely, bis(dibenzoylmethanato)Ni(II) (Ni(DBM)2) across the polarized microhole array interface. Cyclic voltammetry was used to characterize the assisted transfer reaction of perchlorate ions by the $Ni(DBM)_2$ ligand when using the portable sensing device. The current response for the transfer of perchlorate anions by $Ni(DBM)_2$ across the micro-water/gel interface linearly increased as a function of the perchlorate ion concentration. The technique of differential pulse stripping voltammetry was also utilized to improve the sensitivity of the perchlorate anion detection down to 10 ppb. This was acquired by preconcentrating perchlorate anions in the gel layer by means of holding the ion transfer potential at 0 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl) for 30 s followed by stripping the complexed perchlorate ion with the ligand. The effect of various potential interfering anions on the perchlorate sensor was also investigated and showed an excellent selectivity over $Br^-$, $NO_2{^-}$, $NO_3{^-}$, $CO{_3}^{2^-}$, $CH_3COO^-$ and $SO{_4}^{2^-}$ ions. As a final demonstration, some regional water samples from the Sincheon river in Daegu city were analyzed and the data was verified with that of ion chromatography (IC) analysis from one of the Korean-certified water quality evaluation centers.

거친 표면을 가진 물체의 미소변위를 1차원 CCD소자와 레이저 스펙클(laser speckle) 방법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 거친 표면에서 산란된 레이저 광이 이루는 스펙클 무늬를 물체의 이동 전후에 얻고, 그것의 상호상관함수(cross-correlation)를 계산하여 스펙클 변위를 계산한다. 1차원 CCD소자를 이용하여 물체이동 전후의 스펙클 무늬를 측정하고, 레이저 스펙클 변위값을 386 PC로 인터페이스하여 PC에서 계산한다. 사용한 CCD 소자의 화소 간격은 $15\mu\textrm{m}$이고, 화소의 개수는 1728개이다. 스펙클 변위와 물체의 이동거리와는 비는 레이저 빔의 파면의 곡률에따라 1.03으로부터 5.20까지 변화한다. CCD 픽셀의 간격이 $15\mu\textrm{m}$이므로 물체의 $3\mu\textrm{m}$ 이동을 감지해 낼 수 있다.
