Among the position sensing methods available, the arc sensor which utilizes the electrical signal obtained from the welding arc itself is one of the most prevalently used methods, because it has an advantage that no particular sensing device is necessary and real-time sensing of a groove position is possible directly under the arc. The authors have already developed a seam tracking system that contains a new arc sensor algorithm, which uses the relative welding current variation according to the tip-to-workpiece distance in GMA welding. In this study a torch height control algorithm for automatic weld seam tracking was proposed for completing the previous system, which uses an on-off control technique. To implement the torch height control algorithm during weld seam tracking the system parameters which include 2nd averaging range, weighting factor for 2nd moving averaging, and Z-directional basic compensation distance were determined by experimental analysis. Finally the two different height control methods, one is simple on-off control and the other on-off control using a reference current value , were compared in their tracking abilities.

In general, a tripod-shaped foundation secures its verticality by repeating penetration and drawing when suction penetration is performed. These repetitive tasks not only require a skilled operator, but are also less efficient. In this study, an automatic slope control system was developed to verify the slope control performance based on tripod suction in a sandy soil environment. The slope of the tripod suction base was measured, and the relative height of each suction bucket was calculated from the center of the tripod with a formula. The control program reduces the pump output of the suction bucket that penetrates too quickly by controlling the suction pressure of each suction bucket by sending an on/off signal to the suction pump according to the relative height. With such repetitive work, the relative height converges to 0 and the verticality of the structure can be secured while suction penetration is performed. As a result of the experiment, the effect of controlling the slope depending on the optimal limit setting height and penetration depth was confirmed, and a vertical degree within 0.5° was ensured. When installing a tripod suction bucket, the automatic tilt control method using the relative height is efficient without relying on the experience of the operator.

This study was intended to develop the system which controls header height of combine automatically by means of sensing the difference between the header and the ground surface. A micro-computer was used for the controller. The sensing unit designed for the study was composed of potentiometer, oscillating link, and gage wheel. An electric-hydraulic circuit was driven by microcomputer to control header height of combine. Performance of the control system was tested by computer simulation, stationary operation of header, and traveling on the simulated ground.

The In solar power system, the height and azimuth of the sun are important parameters which control generated power magnitude. The tracking method that controls the daily generation magnitude according to latitude and longitude using the two axles is often used in the existing sunlight tracking system today. In this two-axle PV track control system, the self-load is concentrated on one FRAME. It is influenced of the regular load, snow load and the wind load, etc. It is difficult to set up the system in the conventional building. This research is a development about the small-scale economy track device of independent load-dispersing solar generation system. The position tracking algorithm is through new coordinates transformation calculating the height and azimuth of the sun.

This study was intended to develop the automatic feeding depth control system of the head-feed combine which could feed the rice head into threshing unit at the optimal depth regardless of plant height and uneven ground surface. In the control system, one-board microcomputer was used for the controller instead of conventional electric circuits. Field test of the combine equipped with the control system was conducted to evaluate its overall performance. It was also investigated how the location and time delay of rice head sensor affect the system performance.

Soil moisture control system including soil sensing and automatic water supply chain was constructed on open farmland and pot conditions. Soil moisture was controlled by the system showing over the soil moisture contents except 40% treatment. EC was gradually decreased by increasing cultivation days. On applying this system to control soil moisture, the growth and development characters of the bellflower were improved compared with control, cultivation without the automatic irrigation. Of the growth and development characters, plant height with water treatments was higher than that of control in 1st-year plants. Moreover, numbers of branch were increased by the increased soil moisture on farmland and pot condition. Capsule numbers for seed were best at 20%, 30% soil moisture treatment in 1st-year plants, and 20% to 50% treatment in 2nd-year plants. The construction of automatic soil moisture control system provide fundamental data for plant growth and development on open farmland soil condition.

본 논문은 실내에서 미니드론의 영상기반 자동 비행 및 이 착륙 제어시스템을 제안한다. 천정 카메라와 지면에 마커가 있는 환경에서 미니드론의 자동 비행 제어시스템을 구성하였다. 천장에 설치된 카메라영상을 기반으로 착륙 위치와 드론을 인식할 뿐만 아니라 드론의 움직임을 추적한다. PC서버는 드론의 위치를 계산하여 드론에 제어 명령을 전송한다. 드론의 비행 제어기는 상태 머신 기법, PID 제어와 웨이포인트-위치 제어기법을 사용하여 구현하였다. 실제 미니드론을 사용하여 제안한 자동제어시스템을 검증하였다. 바닥의 마커를 인식하여 ㄱ, ㄷ, ㅁ자 등의 특정 형상의 궤적을 따라 비행하는 것을 실험으로 확인하였으며, 높이의 차이가 있는 두 개의 착륙지점에도 착륙하는 실험에서도 우수한 성능을 보여 주었다.

In this paper, we present a method for the inspection of diamond wheels. In total, six items, including height, radius, and angle, need to be checked during the manufacturing of a diamond wheel. Automatic inspection through image processing is presented in this paper. First, a contour corresponding to the boundary of the diamond wheel is extracted from an image. Next, control points are selected by processing the contour. Seven control points are detected and used for the computation of the required item. Detailed procedures for the computation of the height, radius, and angle using control points are presented in this paper. Experimental results show the feasibility of the presented method.
