Recently, a laser displacement sensor is widely used for the manufacturing automation. The sensor is generally composed of a diode laser and a light receiving device. The diode laser emits a laser beam and the receiving device detects the light reflected from the measured object. The object position is obtained based upon triangulation method. As a light receiving device, a PSD is usually utilized since its structure is very simple and rugged and has a high accuracy. Although the theoretical relationship for this sensor had been developed, the characteristics of the sensor have not been much experimentally studied. In this paper, several experimental results will presented. The measurement accuracy is affected by the surface conditions such as the reflectance characteristics, the angle of the object's surface and the laser intensity. In addition, it is found that the PSD and the signal processing circuit have nonlinearities and showed that those nonlinearities can be reduced by controlling the emitting laser intensity.

Herein, we propose a LoRaWAN-based small draft system that can measure the ocean current flow (speed, direction, and distance) in real time at the request of the Coast Guard to develop a device that can promptly find survivors at sea. This system has been implemented and verified in the early stages of rescue after maritime vessel accidents, which are frequent. GPS signals often transmit considerable errors, so correction algorithms using the improved triangulation method algorithm are required to accurately indicate the direction of currents in real time. This paper is structured in the following manner. The introduction section elucidates rescue activities in the case of a maritime accident. Chapter 2 explains the characteristics and main parameters of the GPS surveying technique and LoRaWAN communication, which are related studies. It explains and expands on the critical distance error correction algorithm for GPS signals and its improvement. Chapter 3 discusses the design and analysis of small draft buoys. Chapter 4 presents the testing and validation of the implemented system in both onshore and offshore environments. Finally, Section 5 concludes the study with the expected impact and effects in the future.

This paper deals with the construction of system for correct location determination of fixed tag. We adapted to construct the above method. Also we adapted the several filtering method. This system was constructed through using of several filtering methods to decrease the location determination error and fingerprint method which is composed of training phase and positioning phase. We constructed this system using Labview 2010 and MS-SQL 2000 as database. This system results in less location determination error than least square method, triangulation positioning method, and other fingerprint methods.

Triangulation method, conoscopic holography method and interferometry method are analyzed for effective measurement of micro burr geometry, which is formed in micro drilling. To select proper sensor, the cross section of a cylinder with 0.5mm diameter is measured and the result shows that conoscopic holography method is effective for measuring highly inclined surface in cylinder. Burrs with 1.0mm and 30${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ height are measured by three suggested methods. As a result, the conoscopic holography method is proved to be most proper in measuring burr geometry. Burr measurement system is developed, which consists of conoscopic laser sensor, X-Y table, controller and burr measurement program. Burrs can be measured automatically and the result is displayed in 3D shape

This paper presents a performance evaluation of various feature-initialization algorithms for forward-viewing mono-camera based simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), specifically in indoor environments. For mono-camera based SLAM, the position of feature points cannot be known from a single view; therefore, it should be estimated from a feature initialization method using multiple viewpoint measurements. The accuracy of the feature initialization method directly affects the accuracy of the SLAM system. In this study, four different feature initialization algorithms are evaluated in simulations, including linear triangulation; depth parameterized, linear triangulation; weighted nearest point triangulation; and particle filter based depth estimation algorithms. In the simulation, the virtual feature positions are estimated when the virtual robot, containing a virtual forward-viewing mono-camera, moves forward. The results show that the linear triangulation method provides the best results in terms of feature-position estimation accuracy and computational speed.

국가기준점은 국토에 관한 각종 개발 및 이용 계획 등의 입안을 위한 지도 제작 또는 건설, 토목 공사용의 도면 작성을 위한 기준으로써 매우 중요하다. 우리나라는 1910년대 이후로 국가 기준점인 삼각점과 수준점을 설치하여 관리하여 왔으며, 현재는 국가기준점 정보를 국토정보플랫폼을 통하여 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 우리나라의 국가기준점은 시대적인 사건과 환경에 의해 망실이나 재설, 이설 등의 과정을 거쳐 변화해 왔으며, 이러한 변화를 거친 국가기준점들을 시계열적으로 연계하여 정보를 제공하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 삼각점을 시대별로 조선총독부 자료, 미군 YUCCA 사업 자료, 국립건설연구소 자료, 국립지리원 구 성과표 자료, 현재 자료로 구분하고, 각 시대별 동일 삼각점을 시계열적으로 연계하는 방안을 제시하였다. 최종적으로 제천시를 대상으로 시계열적 동일 삼각점을 정합하고, 삼각점의 시계열적 연계 가능성을 평가하였다.

Terrain surfaces have to be modeled in very detail and wheel-surface contacting geometry must be well defined in order to obtain proper ground-reaction and friction forces fur realistic simulation of off-road vehicles. Delaunay triangulation is one of the most widely used methods in modeling 3-dimensional terrain surfaces, and the T-search is a relevant algorithm for searching resulting triangular polygons. The T-search method searches polygons in a successive order and may not allow real-time computation of off-road vehicle dynamics if the terrain is modeled with many polygons, depending on the computer performance used in the simulation. The dynamic T-search, which is proposed in this paper, combines conventional T-search and the concept of the dynmaic-window search which uses reduced searching windows or sets of triangular surface polygons at each frame by taking advantage of the information regarding dynamic charactereistics of a simulated vehicle. Numerical tests show improvement of searching speeds by about 5% for randomly distributed triangles. For continuous search following a vehicle path, which occurs in actual vehicle simulation, the searching speed becomes 4 times faster.

Modern distance sensing methods employ various measurement principles, including triangulation, time-of-flight, confocal, interferometric and frequency comb. Among them, the triangulation method, with a laser light source and an image sensor, is widely used in low-cost applications. We developed an omnidirectional two-dimensional (2D) distance sensor based on the triangulation principle for indoor floor mapping applications. The sensor has a range of 150-1500 mm with a relative resolution better than 4% over the range and 1% at 1 meter distance. It rotationally scans a compact one-dimensional (1D) distance sensor, composed of a near infrared (NIR) laser diode, a folding mirror, an imaging lens, and an image detector. We designed the sensor layout and configuration to satisfy the required measurement range and resolution, selecting easily available components in a special effort to reduce cost. We built a prototype and tested it with seven representative indoor wall specimens (white wallpaper, gray wallpaper, black wallpaper, furniture wood, black leather, brown leather, and white plastic) in a typical indoor illuminated condition, 200 lux, on a floor under ceiling mounted fluorescent lamps. We confirmed the proposed sensor provided reliable distance reading of all the specimens over the required measurement range (150-1500 mm) with a measurement resolution of 4% overall and 1% at 1 meter, regardless of illumination conditions.

Location information of individual nodes is useful for routing and some other functions in wireless sensor networks. Each node can use GPS to know its position. However, the GPS service can not be practical to use due to cost efficiency, power, and computing capability. This paper proposes the localization method to make nodes know their location in case of a few nodes knows their position information. The proposed method is named as VALT (Virtual Anchor based Localization using Triangulation method). It uses the virtual anchor concept and calculates the location of individual nodes by means of the triangulation method. This method helps all nodes to determine their position with low cost and high scalability.
