Photo-plethysmography (PPG), which measures changes in the peripheral blood flow of a human body using difference in absorption rate of light, is a measurement method that is studied and used in clinical and various applications due to its simple circuit configuration and measurement convenience. Magneto-plethysmography (MPG), which is newly developed by our team, is a method of measuring changes in the conductivity of biological tissues by using a eddy current induced by a time-varying magnetic field, and is not subject to optical interference. In this study, we investigated the detection characteristics of MPG according to the change of the conductivity of the object and fluid to be measured by simultaneously measuring PPG and MPG. In order to control the speed of fluid known in advance, a blood flow simulator was implemented and used. The fluid used in the experiment was general mineral water and physiological saline (0.9% NaCl) solution. Experimental results show that the amplitude change of the measured PPG was 0.3% in normal water and saline solution, and that of MPG was 77.3%. Therefore, it is considered that the magneto-plethysmography (MPG) has a strong correlation with the conductivity of the fluid.

Recently, amid active research on domestic shipbuilding industry and IT convergence technology, with the development of satellite detection technology for ship safety operation, ships monitored the movement of ships with the mandatory long-range identification & tracking of vessels and automatic identification system. It is possible to help safe navigation, but it is necessary to develop safety device that alert the marine officer who rely on radar to correct conditions in case of weightlessness. Therefore, an ocean fog alarm system was developed to detect and inform using photo sensors. The fabricated ocean fog detect and alarm system consists of a small, low-power optical sensor transceiver and data sensing processing module. Through experiment, it is confirmed that the fabricated ocean fog detect and alarm system measure the corresponding concentration of ocean fog for fogless circumstance and fogbound circumstance, respectively. Furthermore, the fabricated system can control RPM of ship engine according to the concentration of ocean fog, and consequently, the fabricated system can be applied to assistant device for ship safety operation.

This paper proposed a new solid State Relay(SSR) structure that can replace the conventional SSR as a power IC. The photodiode arrays, the main part of this structure, were designed and integrated in the same power It chip with the output parts, LDMOSFET and BJT, on a SOI substrate. The fabrication of this input part shared the same output LDMOSFET fabrication processs, except the additional deposition of Silicon nitride($Si_3N_4$) for the photo-detection part. According to LED illumination intensites and photo detecting areas, we could obtain voltage of 0.49V ${\~}$0.52V and current of 5.5uA ${\~}$ 108uA respectively from the fabricated unit photodiode. The maximum value of the voltage and the current we could obtain from the photodiode array were 3.58V and 24.4uA respectively, and the voltage was enough to operate the output LDMOSFET

The jumping ring apparatus described in this study is used to demonstrate and educate the effects of electromagnetic induction. Placing an aluminum ring over the core and switching on AC source causes the ring to jump in the air due to induced currents in the ring producing a magnetic field opposed to that produced in the core. This force is a function of flux density, ac current of ring and levitated height of the ring. Using photo sensor arrays, detect the ring position and represent the position of the ring to analog voltage for an education performance. This paper presents modelling of the jumping ring system and shows how does control signal generate in order to follow desired position.

Due to recent improvements in computer processing speed and image processing technology, researches are being actively carried out to combine information from a camera with existing GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) and dead reckoning. In this study, the mathematical model based on SPR (Single Photo Resection) is derived for image-based assistant algorithm for vehicle positioning. Simulation test is performed to analyze factors affecting SPR. In addition, GNSS/on-board vehicle sensor/image based positioning algorithm is developed by combining image-based positioning algorithm with existing positioning algorithm. The performance of the integrated algorithm is evaluated by the actual driving test and landmark's position data, which is required to perform SPR, based on simulation. The precision of the horizontal position error is 1.79m in the case of the existing positioning algorithm, and that of the integrated positioning algorithm is 0.12m at the points where SPR is performed. In future research, it is necessary to develop an optimized algorithm based on the actual landmark's position data.

Microdrilling is one of the most difficult operations because of the poor chip discharge and the weakness of tool. This study is concerned about the development of a microdrilling monitoring system that is useful for minimizing the tool breakage and enhancing the machinability in the air spindle based microdrilling. The system is composed of a drilling state detection unit and an adaptive step-feed control unit that controls the micro-stepping motor driven spindle axis. Drilling states such as overload, tood breakage are recognized by the change of the air spindle speed which is measured via the reflective photo sensor. Based on the monitoring results, the adaptive step-feed control algorithm adjusts the step increment to keep the decrease of spindle speed within a specified range. The results of evaluation tests have shown that the developed system is very effective to prevent the breakage of microdrill and improves the productivity in comparison with the conventional microdrilling.

The major movement blocks of the container are the range between the apron and the designation points on yard in container terminals. The yard tractor drived by operator takes charge of it's movement in conventional container terminals. In automated container terminal, AGV(automatic guided vehicle) takes charge of a yard tractor's role and information of navigation path are ordered from upper control system. The automated container terminal facilities must have the docking system that guides landing zinc to execute high speed travelling and precision positioning. This paper describes the new docking method with the rotating LSB(laser slit beam) generator and two pair of photo receiver. The LSB generator is installed on the fixed ground and the photo receiver is implemented on the moving vehicle such as AGV. The proposed docking system is implemented to confirm it's function and accuracy. The accuracy of measured moving position is represented in ±5mm at 1 data sampling.
