This paper presents the design and fabrication model of a touchpad based on a contact-resistance-type force sensor. The touchpad works as a touch input device, which can sense contact location and contact force simultaneously. The touchpad is 40 mm wide and 40 mm long. The touchpad is fabricated by using a simple screen printing technique. The contact location is evaluated by the calibration setup, which has a load cell and three-axis stages. The location error is approximately 4 mm with respect to x-axis and y-axis directions. The force response of the fabricated touchpad is obtained at three points by loading and unloading of the probe. The touchpad can detect loads from 0 N to 2 N. The touchpad shows a hysteresis error rate of about 11% and uniformity error rate of about 3%.

In recent years, navigational and fisheries instruments are rapidly advancing. Especially data processing. data transferring and data interchange throughout the digital signals has been in high progress. Even though the ship's heading is also provided by a gyro-compass, an electro-magnetic compass studying by us currently is easy to issue adequate data to instruments requiring the information for the ship's heading. especially in small fishing boats. As the main element of the electro-magnetic compass is a three-axis magnetic sensors, the developing of the high performance sensor is in highly necessity in the beginning. This paper describes on the development of electro-magnetic compass of three-axis fixed type by using three-axis detection new type magnetic sensor without gimbals. even though usual electro-magnetic compass have to need necessarily a gimbal system in order to keep horizontal condition of the compass.

Sleep apnea is a disease that causes various complications, and the polysomnography is expensive and difficult to measure. The purpose of this study is to develop an unrestricted wearable monitoring system so that patients can be examined in a familiar environment. We used a method to detect sleep apnea events and to determine sleep satisfaction by non-constrained method using SpO2 measurement sensor and 3-axis acceleration sensor. Heart rate and SpO2 were measured at the finger using max30100. After acquiring the SpO2 data of the user in real time, the apnea measurement algorithm was used to transmit the number of apnea events of the user to the mobile phone using Bluetooth (HC-06) on the wrist. Using the three-axis acceleration sensor (mpu6050) attached to the upper body, the number of times of tossing and turning during sleep was measured. Based on this data, this algorithm evaluates the patient's tossing and turning during sleep and transmits the data to the mobile phone via Bluetooth. The power source used 9 volts battery to operate Arduino UNO and sensors for portability and stability, and the data received from each sensor can be used to check the various degree between sleep apnea and sleep tossing and turning on the mobile phone. Through thisstudy, we have developed a wearable sleep apnea measurement system that can be easily used at home for the problem of low sleep efficiency of sleep apnea patients.

Recently, various navigational instruments are being composed into a total navigational system. This system requires accurate ship's heading in digital form. The authors have been studying about an electromagnetic compass with a three - axis magnetic sensor in order to provide an accurate ship's magnetic heading which the compass deviations can automatically compensated in the compass itself. In this pater describe on the theory how to derive the poisson's coefficients from ship's magnetism measured with three axis magnetic sensor and the results obtained by the simulation using deviascope, and that results practically coincident with the value observed by bearing on a distant object with magnetic compass.

The substrate for pyroelectric IR sensor which has orientation similar to MgO single crystal was fabricated by depositing the MgO thin film on $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si. The MgO thin film was deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. The c-axis orientation of PLT thin film deposited on Pt/MgO(100)/$Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si substrate was investigated. The MgO thin film deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ at a gas pressure of 30 mTorr with RF power of 160 W exhibited a good a-axis orientation. The PLT thin films deposited on these substrates also exhibited c-axis orientation similar to the PLT thin films deposited on MgO single crystal substrate.

This paper described about on-machine profile measurement of aspheric surfaces using contact probing technique in ultra precision machine. A contact probe has been designed as a sensing device to obtain measuring resolutions in nanometer regime using a circle leaf spring mechanism and a capacitive-type sensor. The contact probe which is installed on the z-axis is In touch with the aspheric objects which is fixed on the spindle of the diamond turning machine(DTM) during the measuring procedure. The x, z-axis motions of the machine are monitored by a set of two orthogonal plane mirror type laser interferometers. As a results, the developed contact probe on-machine measurement system showed 10 nanometers repeatability with a ${\pm}2{\sigma}$ and uncertainty of 200 nmPv.

In this study, we designed a device for consecutively observing position, utilizing 3-axises acceleration sensor. This method offer to check his or her wrong position and developed could to help derived a position appliance. And, we developed a Cobb's angle value in three dimensional using 3-axises acceleration sensor. A proposed device with integrated accelerometers, which can detect postural changes in terms of curvature variation of the spine in the sagittal and coronal planes, has been developed with intention to facilitate posture training. The proposed device was evaluated with 3 normal subjects daily activities. We evaluated the performance of our designed device as calculating the correlation coefficients and mean errors between the angle measured by an electro-goniometer and that estimated by a gravity accelerometer and verified the accuracy and sensitivity. The results showed that the angle obtained from the proposed device revealed a linear characteristic at the range of $\pm60^{\circ}$(correlation coefficient 0.99, error range $\pm2^{\circ}$). We demonstrated that our device could detect the changes of the motion in upper trunk accurately. Also, our device showed good potential for treatment of the patients with scoliosis and prevention of the unbalance position during a daily life.
