In photovoltaic(PV) system, for obtaining maximum efficiency of solar power systems, the solar tracking system must be controlled to match position of the sun. In this paper, we design the solar tracking system to track movement of the sun using CdS sensor modules and to determine direction of the sun under shadow of directions. In addition, for an intelligent computation in tracking of the sun, a fuzzy controller is allocated to space avaliable for splitting area of fuzzy part for the fuzzy input space(grid-type fuzzy partition) in which a fuzzy grid partition divides fuzzy rules bases. As well, a simple model of solar tracking system is designed by two-axis motor control systems and the 8-direction sensor module that can measure shadow from CdS sensor modules by matching of axis of CdS modules and PV panels. We demonstrate this systems is effective for fixed location and moving vessels and our fuzzy controller can track the satisfactorily.

영상감시기술은 공공장소의 사랑 행동패턴 분석을 통한 범죄 예측, 실내 환경에서의 사람의 출입여부 확인, 다중 카메라에서의 특정 이동객체 추적 등 다양하게 이용되고 있다. 또한 유비쿼터스 환경에서 영상센서로 사용 될 수 있다. 영상감시기술에서는 입력된 영상을 여러 과정을 통하여 분석 하게 된다. 여러 과정 중 이동 객체의 정확한 분석을 위해서는 효과적인 이동객체 검출 방법이 필요하게 된다. 어떤 감시카메라는 객체가 감지되었을 때 감지된 영상을 자동으로 보정한다. 이와 같이 자동보정 카메라에 입력된 영상을 분석할 경우 보정된 정도에 따른 영상처리가 필요하게 된다. 이동객체 검출 단계는 배경영상 모델링, 이동객체 검출, 그림자 제거 단계로 나눌 수 있다. 이 같은 과정 중에 감지된 영상의 자동보정 정도를 측정하고 영상 분석시 측정값을 적용하게 된다. 보정 정도를 적용한 방법과 하지 않은 방법 중에 적용한 방법이 더욱 정확한 검출 정도를 나타냈으며, 검출된 이진 이미지의 개선을 위한 과정 중 Reconstruction의 형태학적 영상처리 방법을 적용하여 기존의 검출 방법보다 향상된 결과 영상을 획득할 수 있었다. 이렇게 검출된 이동객체의 분석을 통해 보다 향상된 분석을 할 수 있게 되며, 차후 유비쿼터스 환경에서의 영상 센서로 사용 될 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose a vision-based robust vehicle detection and inter-vehicle distance estimation algorithm for driving assistance system. We use the haar-like features of car rear-shadows, as well as the edge features for detecting of vehicles. The use of additional vehicle edge features greatly reduces the false-positive errors in the vehicle detection. And, after analyzing the conventional two inter-vehicle distance estimation methods: the location-based and the vehicle width-based, an improved inter-vehicle distance estimation algorithm which has the advantage of both method is proposed. Several experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

It is throwing the spotlight on the cultivation crops about high quality crops and productivity improvement per unit area because of rapid climate change caused by global warming. Therefore, we propose a water culture management of circulation nutrient method control system applies to solar tracking method not using traditional method of deep flow technique and artificial light source. We design it in the form of the circulation nutrient method in waterway of a certain amount of nutrient solution and water flowed into the way of circular. In addition, we design a multistage structure in pyramid shape which be possible continuous photosynthesis action to crops of water culture bottom part. Also, solar tracking method is designed five sensor method of center hole sensor method for tracking shadow of solar light not using traditional two hole, four hole sensor method. Finally, through the water culture device applies to solar light tracking method was not introduced in existing study yet, we can reduce growth speed of crops which be possible continuous photosynthesis action to crops. Moreover, We can expect high productivity of per unit area which be possible all crops can be offered growth environment of same type by using form of pyramid shape of multistage structure without top or bottom part.
