상체 지원 외골격 로봇은 크게 인간의 근력을 보조하는 형태와 인간의 근력을 증강하는 형태가 있다. 여기서는 인간의 근력을 증강하는 외골격 로봇을 중심으로 기술하고자 한다. 이러한 외골격 로봇은 팔의 EMG (Electromyograph;근전도) 신호를 측정하는 방법보다는 손의 힘을 직접 감지하는 방법을 통한 팔꿈치와 어깨의 엑추에이터를 구동하는 방식을 취하는 경향이 있다. 본 논문에서도 후자의 방식을 이용하여 손에 작용하는 힘을 분석하여 외골격 로봇을 움직이는 방식을 취하였다. 손의 힘 중에서도 인간을 중심으로 볼 때 위방향과 전진방향의 힘을 분석하기 위하여 2개의 F/T(Force/Torque) 센서를 사용하였으며 팔을 벌리는 동작은 엑추에이터 없이 자유롭게 동작이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 이러한 위방향 및 전진방향 힘의 크기를 팔꿈치와 어깨의 엑추에이터의 동작으로 바꾸어 인간의 동작을 도울 수 있고 힘을 증폭할 수 있는 외골격 로봇을 설계 제작하였다. F/T 센서는 손의 힘을 전기적 신호로 바꾸어주는 로드셀로 이루어지며 손의 힘을 최대한 잘 반영하기 위한 구조를 고안하였다. F/T 센서의 전기신호는 증폭기를 거쳐서 잡음을 제거한 후에 A/D 변환하여 processor에서 처리되어진다.

In airframe structural tests, a control system which has many control channels and a data acquisition system which has many data acquisition channels are used. The more it is used many channels in airframe structural test, the more hardware resources are added in test system. Before test load is applied in test article, test engineer must check test system and components. Therefore, many problems which be likely to happen to system can be minimized. The checking method of test system and components is calibration verification. In this paper, it is described that calibration verification concept and method in relation to airframe structural test controller components.(MTS Aero90 Multifunction Input Output Processor and 497.22 Dual DC Conditioner)

In this Paper, we have Improved the Manufacturing Process of Liquid Aluminum Sulfate using the Design of Automated Measurement Systems. The Manufacturing Process of Liquid Aluminum Sulfate uses a Large Weight. The Quality of a Product Depends Highly on the Proportion of the Raw Material Input in the Production Process. Therefore, it is Very Important to Accurately Measure the Amount of Raw Material. For Automation Design, Load Cell Sensor which can Measure Large Weight Accurately and PLC Technology which is most used in Automation Process are Applied. The Content of Aluminum Oxide in the Aluminum Sulfate Produced before the Automation Design Varies from 8.023% to 8.250%. However, after Automation Design, the Amount of Change from 8.09% to 8.19% was Greatly Reduced. As a Result, we could Reduce the Quality Defect rate Due to Weighing Errors and Reduce Safety Accidents by Applying Automation System.

In this study, a driving load measuring method has developed without utilizing WFT. To measure the driving load, we developed a three-axis load cell with a strain gage. A method to verify the performance of load cells was developed. A system to measure the input load was proposed, and it was verified by evaluation. The measurement error of the impact road surface was found to be less than 20％. However, except under impact road surface conditions, the proposed system can be applied for actual vehicle input load measurement. The influence of tire evaluation tests were carried out through the handling verification evaluation. The input load measurement methods proposed in the present study make performance verification possible without using WFT.

In this paper we present the system we produced to help workers at logistic centers and prevent accidents, in which they could get hurt. As a base we use the main control device, named Arduino uno, which measures the weight by using load cells. When operating with the system, by placing object on it, the system measures the weight of the object and keeps the highest point at the same height by lowering its board. This improves the convenience while placing and removing objects from the board. If the weight of the placed object is exceeding the set value the board will also lower itself to secure the safety. By using a line tracer system, the objects are being moved only on a set route with the goal to make it even more comfortable to use.

Dryers becoming commercially available for experimental and industrial use are classified to general drying oven, hot-air dryer, vacuum dryer, freezing dryer, etc. and kinds of them are various from the function, size and volume, etc. But the moisture measurement is not applied although it is important factor for the quality control and the performance improvement of products, and then now is very passive because the weight is weighed arbitrarily after dry-end. Generally the method for measuring moisture is divided by a direct measurement method and a indirect measurement method, and the former such as the change of weight or volume on the front and rear of separation of moisture, etc. is mainly used. Relatively a indirect measurement is very limited to apply due to utilize measurement apparatuses using temperature conductivity and micro-wave etc. In this research, we easily designed the moisture measurement system using the open-source based Arduino, and monitored moisture fluctuations and weight profiles in the real-time without the effect of external environment. Concretely the temperature-humidity and load cell sensors were packaged into a drying oven and the various change values were measured, and their sensors capable to operate 60℃ and 80℃ were selected to suitable for the moisture sensitive materials and the food dry. And also the performance safety using the organic samples of banana, pear, sawdust could be secured because the changes of evaporation rate as the dry time and temperature, and the measurement values of load cell appeared stable response characteristics through repeated experiments. Hereafter we judge that the reliability can be improved increasingly through the expansion of temperature-humidity range and the comparative analysis with CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) program.

This paper describes on the fabrication and characteristics of a ceramic thin-film pressure sensor based on Ta-N strain-gauges for harsh environment applications. The Ta-N thin-film strain-gauges are sputter-deposited onto a micromachined Si diaphragms with buried cavity for overpressure protectors. The proposed device takes advantages of the good mechanical properties of single-crystalline Si as diaphragms fabricated by SDB and electrochemical etch-stop technology, and in order to extend the operating temperature range, it incorporates relatively the high resistance, stability and gauge factor of Ta-N thin-films. The fabricated pressure sensor presents a low temperature coefficient of resistance, high-sensitivity, low non-linearity and excellent temperature stability. The sensitivity is $1.097-1.21\;mV/V{\codt}kgf/cm^2$ in the temperature range of $25-200^{\circ}C$ and the maximum non-linearity is 0.43%FS.
