As the world supply of fossil fuel sources decreases, the need for efficient energy consevation and develping green energy technologies becomes critical. Because of the high cost of the foundation for large turbines and optional high wind speed (over 12 m/s), it is very difficult to be located at inland city. For the solution above mentioned problem, we have been experimented about that not only using the adaption of wind power system on buildings for improving turbine efficiency, but also applying a wound rotor type induction generator for a small wind turbine.In this research, we try to find out the wind direction and wind speed those were measured every 1 min., during operation period, using the anemometers which consist of horizontally spinning cups on a vertical post. Performance testing for small wind turbine generating system was carried out by using the induction motor and invertor. Finally, we measured the power of 1 kW wind turbine system with the clamp meter and a voltmeter.

This paper presents the design of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) for electric air conditioning compressors which are applied to hybrid electric vehicles (EVs). The motor for driving air conditioning compressor which is recently used on EV(electric vehicle) / HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) is PMSM(permanent magnet synchronous motor) or BLDCM(brushless DC motor). However disadvantage of motors that uses permanent magnets are vulnerable to high temperatures because of the demagnetization by the high temperature and the permanent magnet is expensive because of the high price of rare earth materials from China's monopoly. Therefore, in the automotive insustry is interested in the non-rare-earth motors. SRM has many advantages. it's resistant to high temperatures, price is cheaper, because there are no permanent magnets and winding in the rotor. Also it's high relability and efficiency, suitable for high-speed operation because of structure is simple. In this paper, the SRM, non-rare-earth motor, are designed, analyzed and experimented drive to replace an existing electric compressor drive motor.

This paper describes a new face detection method that is a pre-processing algorithm for on-line face recognition. To complement the weakness of using only edge or rotor features from previous face detection method, we propose the two types of face detection method. The one is a combined method with edge and color features and the other is a center area color sampling method. To prevent connecting the people's face area and the background area, which have same colors, we propose a new adaptive edge detection algorithm firstly. The adaptive edge detection algorithm is robust to illumination variance so that it extracts lots of edges and breakouts edges steadily in border between background and face areas. Because of strong edge detection, face area appears one or multi regions. We can merge these isolated regions using color information and get the final face area as a MBR (Minimum Bounding Rectangle) form. If the size of final face area is under or upper threshold, color sampling method in center area from input image is used to detect new face area. To evaluate the proposed method, we have experimented with 2,100 face images. A high face detection rate of 96.3% has been obtained.

The development of computer technology and the advancement of the technology of information and communications spread the technology of multimedia and increased the use of multimedia data with large capacity. Users can grasp the overall video data and they are able to play wanted video back. To grasp the overall video data it is necessary to offer the list of summarized video data information. In order to search video efficiently an index process of video data is essential and it is also indispensable skill. Therefore, this thesis suggested the effective method about the cut detection of frames which will become a basis of an index based on contents of video image data. This suggested method was detected as the unchanging pixel rotor intelligence value, classified into diagonal direction. Pixel value of color detected in each frame of video data is stored as A(i, i) matrix - i is the number of frames, i is an image height of frame. By using the stored pixel value as the method of UE(Mean Square Error) I calculated a specified value difference between frames and detected cut quickly and exactly in case it is bigger than threshold value set in advance. To carry out an experiment on the cut detection of lames comprehensively, 1 experimented on many kinds of video, analyzing and comparing efficiency of the cut detection system.
