Organic ferroelectric material found vast application in a verity of engineering and health technology fields. In the present study, we investigated the application of the deformable organic ferroelectric in motion measurement and improving performance in tennis players. Flexible ferroelectric material P(VDF-TrFE) could be used in wearable motion sensors in tennis player transferring velocity and acceleration data to collecting devises for analyzing the best pose and movements in tennis players to achieve best performances in terms of hitting ball and movement across the tennis court. In doing so, ferroelectric-based wearable sensors are used in four different locations on the player body to analyze the movement and also a sensor on the tennis ball to record the velocity and acceleration. In addition, poses of tennis players were analyzed to find out the best pose to achieve best acceleration and movement. The results indicated that organic ferroelectric-based sensors could be used effectively in sensing motion of tennis player which could be utilized in the optimization of posing and ball hitting in the real games.

The Microsoft Kinect is a motion sensing input device which is widely used for many motion recognition applications such as fitness, sports, and rehabilitation. Until now, most of remote rehabilitation systems with the Microsoft Kinect have allowed the user or patient to do rehabilitation or fitness by following the motion of a video screen. However in this paper we propose a smart remote rehabilitation system with the Microsoft Kinect motion sensor and a wearable ECG sensor which can allow patients to offer monitoring of the individual's performance and personalized feedback on rehabilitation exercises. The proposed noble smart remote rehabilitation is able to monitor and measure the state of the patient's condition during rehabilitation exercise, and transmits it to the prescriber. This system can give feedback to a prescriber, a doctor and a patient for improving and recovering motor performance. Thus, the efficient rehabilitation training service can be provided to patient in response to changes of patient's condition during exercise.

Biomedical mobile devices for ubiquitous healthcare consist of biomedical sensors and communication terminal. They have two types of configuration. One is the sensor-network type device using wired or wireless communication with intelligent sensors to acquire biomedical data. The other is the sensor embedded type device, where the data can be acquired directly by itself. There are many examples of sensor network type, such as, fall detection sensor, blood glucose sensor, and ECG sensors networked with commercial PDA phone and commercial phone terminal for ubiquitous healthcare. On the other hand, sensor embedded type mounts blood glucose sensor, accelerometer, and etc. on commercial phone. However, to enable true ubiquitous healthcare, motion sensing is essential, because users go around anywhere and their signals should be measured and monitored, when they are affected by the motion. Therefore, in this paper, two biomedical mobile devices with motion monitoring function were addressed. One is sensor-network type with motion monitoring function, which uses Zigbee communication to measure the ECG, PPG and acceleration. The other is sensor-embedded type with motion monitoring function, which also can measure the data and uses the built-in cellular phone network modem for remote connection. These devices are expected to be useful for ubiquitous healthcare in coming aged society in Korea.

최근에 낮은 복잡도의 부호화기를 구현하기 위해 분산 비디오 부호화 와 압축센싱을 결합한 구조로서 분산 압축 비디오 센싱기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존에 움직임 보상 블록 압축센싱 기술(MC-BCS-SPL)은 가장 간단한 표본화를 추구하면서 모든 압축센싱 프레임을 갖는 DCVS방식중의 효과적인 방안으로 다루어져 왔다. 이 방식은 키 프레임과 WZ 프레임으로 분리하여 압축센싱한다. 그러나 MC-BCS-SPL 방식은 복호화기에서 WZ 프레임을 복원할 때, 움직임이 큰 영상 시퀀스의 경우에 화질 저하가 발생시키는 단점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기존의 문제점을 극복하기 위한 개선된 MC-BCS-SPL 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방식은 연속적인 키 프레임 간 에 존재하는 높은 상관관계를 이용하여 키 프레임을 참조함으로써 초기 영상을 보정한다. GOP 예측 구조 방식에 따른 율-왜곡 성능을 비교한다. 다양한 실험 결과를 통하여 제안하는 알고리즘이 기존 알고리즘보다 더 좋은 화질을 제공함을 보여준다.

가장 간단한 샘플링을 위한 목적으로 SPL (Smoothed Projected Landweber)기법 기반의 움직임 보상 블록 압축센싱 기법이 모든 센싱 프레임들에 대해 분산 압축 비디오 센싱 기술이 적용되는 효과적인 방안으로 연구되어 오고 있다. 그러나 기존의 움직임 보상 블록기반의 압축센싱 기법은 매우 간단하여 복원된 위너-지브 프레임에서 우수한 화질을 제공하지 못하는 한계점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 움직임 보상 블록기반의 압축센싱 기법을 이용한 위너-지브 프레임에서 우수한 화질을 제공될 수 있도록 알고리즘을 변형한다. 즉, 제안된 알고리즘은 참조 프레임이 연속적인 프레임들에 있어 시간적 상관관계에 기초해서 적응적으로 선택되도록 하는 방법으로 설계된다. 다양한 실험 결과를 통하여 제안한 알고리즘은 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 우수한 화질을 제공할 수 있음을 확인한다.

해빙의 이동은 지역적 분포뿐만 아니라 해빙의 생성 및 두께에도 영향을 미치기 때문에 해빙의 변화를 평가하는 데에 중요한 정보가 된다. 이 연구에서는 북극해 해빙의 이동 특성 탐지를 위해 Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-2(KOMPSAT-2)와 Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-3(KOMPSAT-3)의 두 위성 센서로부터 다중 시기 고해상도 광학 위성 영상을 획득하고, SIFT(Scale-Invariant Feature Transform), SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features) 및 ORB(Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF)의 특징점 추적 기법을 적용하였다. 두 위성 센서에서 획득된 영상의 활용을 위해 전처리 단계에서 공간해상도와 방사해상도를 일치시킨 후 특징점 추적 기법을 적용한 결과 SIFT의 경우 영상 전반에 걸쳐 특징점의 고른 공간 분포가 나타났고, SURF의 경우 해빙과 해양의 경계 부분에 특징점이 주요하게 분포하는 경향이 관찰되었으며 이러한 경향은 ORB에서 가장 현저하게 나타났다. 특징점 추적 기법별 연산 시간 측정 결과 SIFT, SURF 및 ORB의 순서로 연산 시간이 감소하였다. ORB의 경우 SIFT 기법 대비 추적된 특징점 수가 평균 59.8%로 줄어들었지만 연산 시간은 평균 8.7%에 해당하는 시간이 소요되어 해빙 이동 특성의 고속 탐지에 적합한 기법으로 판단된다.

Nowcasting algorithms using weather radar data are mostly based on extrapolating the radar echoes. We estimate the echo motion vectors that are used to extrapolate the echo properly. Therefore, understanding the general characteristics of these motion vectors is important to improve the performance of nowcasting. General characteristics of radar-based motions are analyzed for warm season precipitation over Jeju region. Three-year summer season data (June~August, 2011~2013) from two radars (GSN, SSP) in Jeju are used to obtain echo motion vectors that are retrieved by Variational Echo Tracking (VET) method which is widely used in nowcasting. The highest frequency occurs in precipitation motion toward east-northeast with the speed of $15{\sim}16m\;s^{-1}$ during the warm season. Precipitation system moves faster and eastward in June-July while it moves slower and northeastward in August. The maximum frequency of speed appears in $10{\sim}20m\;s^{-1}$ and $5{\sim}10m\;s^{-1}$ in June~July and August respectively while average speed is about $14{\sim}15m\;s^{-1}$ in June~July and $8m\;s^{-1}$ in August. In addition, the direction of precipitation motion is highly variable in time in August. The speed of motion in Lee side of the island is smaller than that of the windward side.

We build a local minimum free motion planning for mobile robots considering dynamic environments by simple sensor fusion assuming that there are unknown obstacles which can be detected only partially at a time by proximity sensors and can be cleaned up or moved slowly (dynamic environments). Potential field is used as a basic platform for the motion planning. To clear local minimum problem, the partial information on the obstacles should be memorized and integrated effectively. Sets of linked line segments (SLLS) are proposed as the integration method. Then robot's target point is replaced by virtual target considering the integrated sensing information. As for the main proximity sensors, we use laser slit emission and simple web camera since the system gives more continuous data information. Also, we use ultrasonic sensors as the auxiliary sensors for simple sensor fusion considering the advantages in that they give exact information about the presence of any obstacle within certain range. By using this sensor fusion, the dynamic environments can be dealt easily. The performance of our algorithm is validated via simulations and experiments.

To establish of standard technique of nano-length measurement in 2D plane, new AFM system has been designed. In this system, measurement uncertainty is dominantly affected by the Abbe error of XY scanning stage. No linear stage is perfectly straight; in other words, every scanning stage is subject to tilting, pitch and yaw motion. In this paper, an AFM system with minimum offset of XY sensing is designed. And XY scanning stage is designed to minimize rotation angle because Abbe errors occur through the multiply of offset and rotation angle. To minimize the rotation angle optimal design has performed by maximizing the stiffness ratio of motion direction to the parasitic motion direction of each stage. This paper describes the design scheme of full AFM system, especially about XY stage. Full range of fabricated XY scanner is $100um\times{100um}$. And tilting, pitch and yaw motion are measured by autocollimator to evaluate the performance of XY stage. Using this AFM system, 3um pitch specimen was measured. As a result, the uncertainty of total system has been evaluated.
