Non-contacting capacitive sensor, based on principle of the cross capacitor, for measuring of $\mu\textrm{m}$-order displacements have been fabricated and characterized. To overcome disadvantages of the existed capacitive sensors of parallel type with 2-electrodes and 3-electrodes, the developed new sensor was designed to have 4-electrodes, two of them used high and low electrode the other two used as guard electrodes, on a sapphire plate with diameter 17 mm and thickness 0.7 mm, and are symmetrically situated with a constant gap of 0.2 mm between the electrodes. This sensor can be used for measuring the distance between sensor and target not only the metallic but also non-metallic target without ground connection.

In order to introduce the touch to engineering and industries, it must be preceded to dstablish a quantitative barometer of the feeling. for this purpose, we developed a tactile measuring system to measure physical properties of texture, such as surface roughness, friction coefficient and compliance. The tactile measuring system uses a LASER type displacement sensor, which is a non-contacting system, in measuring the surface roughness. By considering that human tactile system is a contacting mechanism, this non-contacting method needs to be modified. As a precedent research of that, we compared the contacting and non-contacting method in this paper. Surface roughness of ten cloths were measured by using the measuring system, then compared to the test results using the Kawabata evaluation system(KES), which uses a contacting method in measuring the surface roughness.

Non-contacting capacitive sensor based on Thompson-Lampard theorem have been fabricated and characterized for measuring of 때 order displacements. To overcome disadvantages of the existed capacitive sensors of parallel plate type with 2-electrodes and 3-electrodes, the developed new sensor was designed to have 4-electrodes with a constant gap of 0.2mm between the electrodes. Two of the electrodes were used as a high potential electrode and a low one, the other two electrodes were used as guard electrodes. These electrodes were made from copper using RF sputtering system on a sapphire plate with diameter 17 mm and thickness 0.7 mm. This sensor can be used for measuring the distance not only between the sensor and metallic target connected to ground potential but also non-metallic target without ground connection.

Non-contacting capacitive sensors, based on principle of the cross capacitor, for measuring small displacement less than 1.95$\pm$0.5 mm have been fabricated and characterized. To overcome disadvantages of the existed capacitive sensors, the new sensor is consisted of 4-electrodes which are formed 2 active electrodes and 2 guard electrodes on a sapphire plate with diameter 17mm and thickness 0.7 mm, and are symmetrically situated with constant gap of 0.2 mm among the electrodes. The sensor is evaluated to be correlation coefficient of 0.9987 for the range of 1.95$\pm$0.5 mm and that of 0.9995 for 1.95$\pm$0.25 mm range. This sensor can be used for in situ measurements in the mechanical mirror polishing with precision less than $\pm$1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

An industrial product is designed and fabricated, followed by the inspection process in order to check whether it is dimensionally tolerable or not. The machining process produces a part such as a mold or die, in which the three-dimensional coordinate might be measured by a CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) for assessment of its dimension. It is not ignorable, however, that a CMM measurement requires a lot of operating time and cost, which has led to many studies on the OMM system. The OMM system can be categorized into contact and non-contact types, and each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. Non-contacting types generally utilize structured lights, sounds or magnetic fields. Though they show rather poor performance in positional accuracy, the measuring speed is faster than the contacting probes. This paper presents the development of an OMM system based on a non-contacting laser displacement sensing apparatus and CAD model. The system is composed of software modules of center-aligning and measuring, which has been operated and verified on a NC machining center on a shop floor.

To establish the national standard of capacitance, four main electrodes of the cross capacitor which were evaluated to linearity and roundness less the $\pm 1 \mu m$ respectively have to be adjusted symmetrically in an inner cylinder. Four LM shafts with diameter of 5 mm were installed between main electrodes of the cross capacitor, and the electrodes were adjusted, as the first step, by means of the measured capacitance. In the second step, the symmetrical adjustment up to $\pm 1.2\mu m$ was performed by using a ball sensor, ball-type movable sensor, non-contacting capacitive sensor and upper guard sensor which were developed in this project.

In addition, because it uses preheating to dissolve an alloy in general, it is hard to regulate the appropriate melting temperature of the alloy and brewing time and shows the defect of the supplementation thing due to the super-heating. Once the alloy is molten and then most of the casting by attaching a sight glass or non-contact temperature sensor is suitable casting temperature the operator pressing a button to generate a centrifugal force to inject the molten alloy into a crucible in the casting ring. These results, and most of the cast temperature is too high or too low to generate a lot of casting defects do not get into a uniform cast body. In this paper, we developed a dental casting machine for high frequency using a single temperature sensor which can measure the actual temperature of the alloy than the temperature of the external non-contact measurement using a temperature sensor.

In reverse engineering, data acquisition methodology can generally be categorized into contacting and non-contacting types. Recently, researches on hybrid or sensor fusion of the two types have been increasing. In addition, efficient construction of a geometric model from the measurement data is required, where considerable amount of user interaction to classify and localize regions of interest is inevitable. Our research focuses on the classification of each bounded region into a pre-defined feature shape fer a hybrid measuring scheme, where the overall procedures are described as fellows. Firstly, the physical model is digitized by a non-contacting laser scanner which rapidly provides cloud-of-points data. Secondly, the overall digitized data are approximated to a z-map model. Each bounding curve of a region of interest (featured area) can be 1.aced out based on our previous research. Then each confined area is systematically classified into one of the pre-defined feature types such as floor, wall, strip or volume, followed by a more accurate measuring step via a contacting probe. Assigned to each feature is a specific digitizing path topology which may reflect its own geometric character. The research can play an important role in minimizing user interaction at the stage of digitizing path planning.

Now normally using a contact method of vehicle Inhibitor Switch that is use direct voltage level signal. This method is good solution for signal deliverly. but The contacted method have a short lifetime because of deterioration of contact surface. so we suggest to non-contacted method using magnetic sensor. The magnetic sensor is used to non-contacted method that is solution for problem of contacted method. In this paper using that of magnetic sensor feature, so we applied to Vehicle Transmitter switch that of non-contacting method. Sensor voltage outputs have variable electric potential that normally 0 mV to 150 mV, and it is depend on Switch Angle. we used two differential sin wave for switching of 5 state signal.
