In this paper, we developed an analyzing method of the motional characteristics of sperm, using image processing technology. Without the aid of a dedicated image-processor, this processing of a personal computer(PC) and a simple image processing board. The image processing board is used for acquiring images from a microscopic imaging source. The PC processes the images from the board and computes the parameters of motional characteristics of sperms. The algorithm of the site detection of sperms and the 'Match Matrix Method' is noteworthy. After comparing the results of our method with those of the manual method, and with those of the method using a dedicated image-processor, we concluded that our method is useful and reliable.

RFID System has an advantage that it need not touch an objects for identification of many objects. Because it is working through wireless communication. Also, So many objects can be identified with RFID System at once. However, although RFID System has convenience like above, it has serious privacy concern at the same time. If RFID System is working with an target object through wireless communication, other objects will respond to RFID System signal as well as a target object. Hence, RFID System can be easily exposed user privacy by attacker. In this paper, We propose RFID system authentication model in order to protecting user privacy and traking. Proposed RFID system is operating that not only server authenticate RFID reader but also RFID reader and tag authenticate mutually by using symetric cryptography that operating with tiny and simple processing.

Recently, the missing due to the heinous crimes occurred in succession has been the focus of attention, so measures for these are urgently needed. So, it is necessary that we need to check and take care the weak like children, women, the elderly with dementia and insane person to prevent these social problems. This study is location-based service that suggests the tracking system and way to guard a family and property from the various risk factors which are possible in our life. To acquire the location of the user who is in motion, a communications network technologies were integrated and the system will be able to be monitoring in real time through the website. So, it is convenient and safe because it is possible to use anywhere. Concretely, it was described around location-based service, GPS system, tracking system, process of the service solution and composition for the system. Also, the way to activate the system will be suggested. The final suggested system was verified the possibility through the placement. With this, i will offer effective measures which is more convenient to use and reliable.

This paper describes the improvements made on hardware and software of the remote controller for realistic contents. The controller can provide vibrotactile feedback which uses both of a voice-coil actuator and a vibration motor. A vision tracking system for the 3D position of the controller is optimized with respect to the marker size and the camera parameters. We also present the improvements of motion recognition due to the effective motion segmentation and the fusion of vision and acceleration data. We apply the developed controller to realistic contents and validate its usability.

Recently food problem and crop disaster have been increased continuously because of the meteorological changes. These cause rising cost for crops continuously and irregularly. Some researchers have studied straight structure of device for hydroponics and plant factory previously to solve a fundamental part of these problems. However, there are several problems such as limited crop cultivation space, providing irregular nutrients for crops, and lack of monitoring interfaces. For them, we propose an optimal growth and development crops management system using light source tracking and recirculation of nutrient solution method to supply nutrient continuously based on IoT. In order to evaluate the performance of our system, we compared and analyzed in terms of two viewpoints, the tracking analysis for natural light source measurement and the growth of crops through artificial light, LED, respectively. We confirmed that the higher the duty ratio of LED, the larger the crop's size, particularly. As well as, for about 1 month, we compared with the existing natural light growing environment and that of our system. It was confirmed that the size of the crops grown through our system is about three times larger than that of natural light natural crops.

This paper presents novel methods of recognizing license plates of passing vehicles outdo(n. In particular, the proposed method is much robust for inclined plates caused by the changes of camera placement. To acquire fine images of quickly passing vehicles under a wide range of illumination conditions, we developed a sensing system having superb characteristics. We expanded the dynamic range and eliminated the blurring of images of fast moving vehicles by synthesizing a pair of synchronized images with different intensities. furthermore, to extend the flexibility of the positioning of the TV camera, we propose a recognition algorithm that can be applied to inclined plates. The performance of the integrated system was investigated on real images of vehicles captured under various illumination conditions. The recognition rates of over 99% (conventional plates) and over 97% (highly inclined plates) shows that the developed system is effective for license plate recognition.

This paper proposes a user interface, on see-through system environment which shows the images via two different cameras, that also ordinary user can control the computer systems or other various processes easily. For that, we include an AR technology to synthesize the virtual button to the image which is captured by the camera real-time. And we were looking for the hand position in the image to judge whether the figure selects the button. And the result of judgment visualizes through changing of the button color. The user can easily interact with the system by selecting the virtual button in the screen with watching the screen and moving her fingers at the air.

In this research, a high-performance ultrasonic positioning system is proposed to track the positions of an indoor mobile object. Composed of an ultrasonic sender (mobile object) and a receiver (anchor), the system employs three ultrasonic time-off-flights (TOFs) and trilateration to estimate the positions of the object with an accuracy of sub-centimeter. On the other hand, because ultrasonic waves are interfered by temperature, wind and various obstacles obstructing the propagation while propagating in air, ultrasonic pulse debounce technique and Kalman filter were applied to TOF and position calculation, respectively, to compensate for the interference and to obtain more accurate moving object position. To perform tasks in real time, ultrasonic signals are processed full-digitally with a Zynq SoC, and as a software design tool, Vivado IDE(integrated design environment) is used to design the whole signal processing system in hierarchical block diagrams. And, a hardware/software co-design is implemented, where the digital circuit portion is designed in the Zynq's fpga and the software portion is c-coded in the Zynq's processors by using the baremetal multiprocessing scheme in which the c-codes are distributed to dual-core processors, cpu0 and cpu1. To verify the usefulness of the proposed system, experiments were performed and the results were analyzed, and it was confirmed that the moving object could be tracked with accuracy of sub-cm.
