This paper presents an experimental study of the factors modulating the urgency perception of voice alarm generated by concatenative synthesizers. Four experiments were conducted using psycho-physical approach in which 112 participants made magnitude estimation for urgency perception of various voice alarm stimuli. Experiment 1 identified 6 acoustic and non-acoustic factors modulating the perceived urgency of synthesized voice alarm. Experiment 2, 3 and 4 quantified the relations between the objective changes in each of the quantifiable parameters and the subjective changes in urgency perception. This research has implications for the design and implementation of synthesized voice alarm systems where urgency mapping is required.

A lane departure warning system (LDWS) is an effective technology-based countermeasure for preventing traffic crashes as it provides warning information to drivers. Understanding the characteristics of perception and satisfaction levels on LDWS is fundamental for deriving better performance and functionality enhancements of the system. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the user satisfaction of LDWS. A survey to collect user perception and user preference data was conducted. Both cross-tabulation analysis and binary logistic regression technique were adopted to identify the factors affecting user satisfaction for LDWS. The results revealed that the accuracy and timeliness of warning information was significant for evaluating the effectiveness of LDWS. In particular, the warning accuracy at a curve segment on the road was the most dominant factor affecting user satisfaction. The outcome of this study would be valuable in evaluating and designing LDWS functionalities.

In this paper, improvement measures were studied for false alarm (abnormal lighting) of emergency hydraulic warning light due to RF radiation signals in aircraft. When the warning lamp of the emergency hydraulic system is lit during flight due to electromagnetic interference caused by RF radiation signals, it affects flight mission and safety which can result in efficiency degradation and maintenance of flight mission. For false alarm of emergency hydraulic warning light, root cause analysis and troubleshooting were carried out. By shielding a composite strip under fuselage of the aircraft located in the path of the RF radiation signal, the RF radiation signal flowing into the emergency hydraulic indicator was blocked. Results of applying the improvement method through ground and flight monitoring were also described.

Recently, the warning system to aid drivers for safe driving is being developed. The system estimates the distance between the driver's car and the car before it and informs him of safety distance. In this paper, we designed and implemented the collision warning system which detects the car in front on the actual road situation and measures the distance between the cars in order to detect the risk situation for collision and inform the driver of the risk of collision. First of all, using the forward-looking camera, it extracts the interest area corresponding to the road and the cars from the image photographed from the road. From the interest area, it extracts the object of the car in front through the analysis on the critical value of the shadow of the car in front and then alerts the driver about the risk of collision by calculating the distance from the car in front. Based on the results of detecting driving cars and measuring the distance between cars, the collision warning system was designed and realized. According to the result of applying it in the actual road situation and testing it, it showed very high accuracy; thus, it has been verified that it can cope with safe driving.

Fighter pilots are taking 'Advanced Pilot Training' courses to perform their missions perfectly even under adverse conditions. However, there are accidents that fall due to problems with the human body's equilibrium in the acceleration of flight, falling into the 'Vertigo, Spatial disorientation' phenomenon. As such, accidents that fighters fall due to spatial disorientation frequently occur not only in Korea but also abroad. In this study, we implemented the 'Vertigo' warning function in the fighter. First, we analyzed the aircraft's mission computer and the currently implemented warning functions. And we studied the coordinate system to utilize the aircraft attitude information. Based on this, we wanted to provide a visual warning to the HUD when the fighter flies over a certain time in the inverted flight position. Implementing this feature is expected to improve pilot flight safety. In addition, based on the results of this study, we propose a method to implement warning functions through linkage with other subsystems.

현재 국내 외 제조 산업은 기업 시스템의 노후화 등의 많은 문제들이 발생하고 있다. 현재의 자동차 부품공장에서의 불량품에 대한 처리방법은 제품의 생산이 완료된 후 테스트 단계를 거쳐 양품과 불량품을 분류하고 불량품이 발생하면 생산을 중단하고 생산라인의 상태를 점검하는 방식이다. 본 연구에서는 자동차 부품공장의 생산라인에서 불량품 생산을 줄이고 생산라인 가동시간의 지연을 줄이기 위한 불량 예방 모니터링 시스템에 대해 제안한다. 불량 예방 모니터링 시스템은 제품 조립의 각 단계 마다 테스트를 통해 데이터를 수집하고, 수집한 데이터에서 불량이 예상되면 알람 기능을 이용해서 경고를 하도록 설계하였다. 경고 메시지를 통해 불량이 예상되는 곳에 대해 조기에 조치하여 불량품이 나올 확률을 최소한으로 하고 제품의 생산지연 시간을 줄이는 것을 목표로 한다.

우리나라의 과학 교육은 원리에 대한 정확한 이해 없이 암기 위주의 지식만을 강조하였기 때문에, 학생들의 과학에 대한 관심도는 점점 떨어지고 학년이 높아갈수록 과학은 어렵고 딱딱한 과목이라는 생각을 흔히 하게 된다. 이러한 현실을 반영하여 과학교구는 단순 암기 위주의 지식을 전달하는 것이 아니라 학생 스스로 과학의 높은 수준까지도 무리 없이 학습하기 위해 필요한 관찰력, 이해력, 분석 능력을 기르게 해 준다.(중략)

The objective of this paper is to understand value of active safety features on the customer perspective. In this study, 30 participants who don't have experience with active safety features were recruited and asked for preference, usefulness and consideration of each active safety feature after driving evaluation by them. Through this research, the preference of active safety features were analyzed and which of active safety features were the most useful and the most considered by customer when they purchase new vehicle. As a result, adaptive cruise control and side blind zone alert were the most strongly preferred and considered features by respondents and it means that respondents wanted comfort environment while driving and seemed to value features that compensated for limited visibility. On the other hand, active safety features that warned driver without control of the vehicle was deemed generally less desirable such as lane departure warning and forward collision alert. But autonomous emergency braking was higher than the other active safety features with only warning even if they did not have experience for it while this test. They thought it will be helpful in case of front-end collision situation even they just listened description before the test.
