Polishing a die that has free-form surfaces is a time-consuming and tedious job, and requires a considerable amount of high-precision skill. In order to reduce the polishing time and cope with the shortage of skilled workers, an automatic polishing robot system was developed. The polishing robot system is composed of two subsystems, a three-axis machining center and a two-axis polishing head. The machining center is controlled by a FANUC controller, and the polishing head by DSP controller. The system has five degrees of freedom and is able to keep the polishing tool normal to the die surface during operation. To easily operate the developed polishing robot system, this study developed an integrated operating program in the Windows environment. The program consists of five modules: a polishing data generation module, a code separation module, a polishing module, a graphic simulator module, and a teaching module. Also, the automatic teaching system was developed to easily obtain teaching data and it consists of a three dimensional joystick and a proximity sensor. Also, to evaluate the performance of the integrated operating program and the polishing robot system, polishing experiments of a die of shadow mask were carried out.

To detect electrical faults of a TFT (Thin Film Transistor) panel for the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), techniques of converting electric field to an image are used One of them is the PDLC (polymer-dispersed liquid crystal) modulator which changes light transmittance under electric field. The advantage of PDLC modulator in the electric field detection is that it can be used without physically contacting the TFT panel surface. Specific pattern signals are applied to the data and gate electrodes of the panel to charge the pixel electrodes and the image sensor detects the change of transmittance of PDLC positioned in proximity distance above the pixel electrodes. The image represents the status of electric field reflected on the PDLC so that the characteristic of the PDLC itself plays an important role to accurately quantify the defects of TFT panel. In this paper, the image of the PDLC modulator caused by the change of electric field of the pixel electrodes on the TFT panel is acquired and how the characteristics of PDLC reflect the change of electric field to the image is analyzed. When the holding time of PDLC is short, better contrast of electric field image can be obtained by changing the instance of applying the driving voltage to the PDLC.

We are developing a sensitive gamma ray spectrometer based on superconducting transition edge sensors. The detector consists of a small piece of high purity Sn as an absorber and a Ti/Au bilayer as a temperature sensor. It is designed to measure the thermal signal caused by absorption of gamma rays. The mechanical support and the thermal contact between the absorber and the thermometer were made with Stycast epoxy. The bilayer was formed by e-beam evaporation and patterned by wet etching on top of a $SiN_X$ membrane. A sharp superconducting transition of the film was measured near 100 mK. When the film was biased to the edge of the transition, signals were observed due to single photon absorption emitted from an $^{241}Am$ source. The measured spectrum showed several characteristic peaks of the source including 59.5 keV gamma line. The full with at half maximum was about 900 eV for the 59.5 keV gamma line. The background was low enough to resolve low energy lines. Considerations to improve the energy resolution of the gamma ray spectrometer are also discussed.

In present study, Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) was employed to carry out the dynamic and vibration analysis of the threshing unit of the combine harvester thresher as a mechanical component. The main study is to find the causes of vibration and to decrease it to enhance the lifetime and efficiency of the threshing unit. By utilizing OMA, structural modal parameters such as mode shapes, natural frequencies, and damping ratio was calculated. The combine harvester was excited by engine to vibrate different parts and accelerometer sensor collected acceleration signals at different speeds, and OMA was utilized by nonparametric and frequency analysis methods to obtain modal parameters while vibrating in real working conditions. Afterwards, finite element model was designed from the thresher and updated using the data obtained from the modal analysis. Using the conducted analyses, it was specified that proximity of the thresher pass frequency to one of the natural frequencies (16.64 Hz) was the most important effect of vibration in the thresher. Modification process of the structure was carried out by increasing mass required for changing the natural frequency location of the first mode to 12.4 Hz in order to reduce resonance and vibration of the thresher.

In this study, a pyrene-core single molecule with amino (-NH₂) functional group material was hybridized using ZnO quantum dots (QDs). The suppressed performance of the 1-aminopyrene (1-PyNH₂) single molecule as an emissive layer (EML) in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) was exploited by adopting the ZnO@1-PyNH₂ core-shell structure. Unlike pristine 1-PyNH₂ molecules, the ZnO@1-PyNH₂ hybrid QDs formed energy proximity levels that enabled charge transfer. This result can be interpreted as an improvement in surface roughness. The uniform and homogeneous EML alleviates dark-spot degradation. Moreover, LEDs with the ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TFB/EML/TPBi/LiF/Al configuration were fabricated to evaluate the performance of two emissive materials, where pristine-1-PyNH₂ molecules and ZnO@1-PyNH₂ QDs were used as the EML materials to verify the improvement in electrical characteristics. The ZnO@1-PyNH₂ LEDs exhibited blue luminescence at 443 nm (FWHM = 49 nm), with a turn-on voltage of 4 V, maximum luminance of 1500 cd/m², maximum luminous efficiency of 0.66 cd/A, and power efficiency of 0.41 lm/W.

Safety and security are the topmost priority in every environment. With the aid of Artificial Intelligence (AI), many objects are becoming more intelligent, conscious, and curious of their surroundings. The recent scientific breakthroughs in autonomous vehicular designs and development; powered by AI, network of sensors and the rapid increase of Internet of Things (IoTs) could be utilized in maintaining safety and security in our environments. AI based on deep learning architectures and models, such as Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), is being applied worldwide in the automotive design fields like computer vision, natural language processing, sensor fusion, object recognition and autonomous driving projects. These features are well known for their identification, detective and tracking abilities. With the embedment of sensors, cameras, GPS, RADAR, LIDAR, and on-board computers in many of these autonomous vehicles being developed, these vehicles can properly map their positions and proximity to everything around them. In this paper, we explored in detail several ways in which these enormous features embedded in these autonomous vehicles, such as the network of sensors fusion, computer vision and natural image processing, natural language processing, and activity aware capabilities of these automobiles, could be tapped and utilized in safeguarding our lives and environment.

본 논문에서는 인공위성 근접운용을 위한 단일 영상 기반 상대항법에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 추적 위성은 하나의 카메라 센서만을 이용하여 표적 위성을 관측하고 영상추적을 통해 표적 위성의 위치 정보를 얻게 된다. 그러나 단일 영상만을 이용할 경우, 표적과의 상대 거리에 해당하는 깊이 정보를 얻기 힘들다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 능동 윤곽 기법을 영상 추적에 적용하였다. 능동 윤곽 기법을 통해 표적의 이미지 크기를 얻을 수 있고 이러한 형상 정보를 바탕으로 상대 거리를 간접적으로 계산할 수 있다. 두 인공 위성이 상대 운동을 하는 우주환경을 구현하고 가상의 카메라 영상을 생성하기 위해 3차원 가상현실이 이용되었다. 추적 위성은 UKF를 이용하여 표적 위성에 대한 상대위치를 추정하면서 글라이드슬로프 접근 기법을 이용하여 표적 위성에 근접한다. 상대항법의 성능을 분석하기 위해서 폐 루프 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다.

일반적인 기계나 자동차 등의 제조업 조립공정은 공정별 흐름에 근접센서, 바코더, RFID, ZigBee, Bluetooth, 무선 센서 네트워크 등의 유무선 정보 수집 장치를 활용하여 실시간으로 공정 진행 정보를 네트워크를 통하여 상위의 제조 실행 시스템 MES(Manufacturing Execution System) 서버로 수집하는 방식으로서 공정의 흐름을 파악하고 생산량을 점검하기에 적합하나 개별 작업자의 해당 작업장 내에서의 작업 누락이나 동선 파악을 위한 실시간 위치 추적은 어려운 실정이다. 이를 극복하기 위하여, 작업자 공구의 실시간 위치 추적시스템 도입을 통해 공구의 위치 및 궤적을 실시간으로 분석하여 작업자에게 일관된 작업 순서를 지시하고 작업의 누락 및 가감을 체크한다면, 비숙련공이나 실수에 의해서 조립공정에서 발생할 수 있는 조립불량을 작업자에게 실시간으로 알려주거나 사전에 차단하여 생산성 및 품질향상을 이룰 수 있다. 이를 위하여, 전동공구의 기계적인 진동 및 무선통신 노이즈를 제거하고 측정신호의 정밀도 향상을 위하여 칼만필터를 적용한 UWB(Ultra Wide Band) 삼변측량 기반의 실시간 공구 위치 추적 센서시스템을 개발하였고 이동평균필터에 비해 약 21%의 무선측정 성능개선을 통하여 그 효용성을 증명하였다.
