This paper proposes an object detection method based on motion estimation using background subtraction in the fisheye images obtained through omni-directional camera mounted on the vehicle. Recently, most of the vehicles installed with rear camera as a standard option, as well as various camera systems for safety. However, differently from the conventional object detection using the image obtained from the camera, the embedded system installed in the vehicle is difficult to apply a complicated algorithm because of its inherent low processing performance. In general, the embedded system needs system-dependent algorithm because it has lower processing performance than the computer. In this paper, the location of object is estimated from the information of object's motion obtained by applying a background subtraction method which compares the previous frames with the current ones. The real-time detection performance of the proposed method for object detection is verified experimentally on embedded board by comparing the proposed algorithm with the object detection based on LKOF (Lucas-Kanade optical flow).

In this paper, we propose a method to inspect defects of injection molded automotive parts. In order to inspect them, we developed and used a line detection algorithm and a defect analysis algorithm. The line detection algorithm defines center point of a laser line and the inspection algorithm determines the defects of automotive parts using pattern data of inspected objects and the data results from the line detection algorithm. We evaluated the accuracy and the processing time of inspection and they showed good performance.

This study used the Deep Learning models used in previous studies, we selected the basic model. The selected model was selected as ZFNet among ZFNet, Googlenet and ResNet, and the object was detected using a ZFNet based FRCNN. In order to reduce the detection error rate of FRCNN, location of four types of objects detected inside the image was designed by SVM classifier and location-based filtering was applied. As simulation results, it showed similar performance to the lane marking classification method with conventional 경계 detection, with an average accuracy of about 88.8%. In addition, studies using the Linear-parabolic Model showed a processing speed of 165.65ms with a minimum resolution of 600 × 800, but in this study, the resolution was treated at about 33ms with an input resolution image of 1280 × 960, so it was possible to classify lane marking at a faster rate than the previous study by CNN-based End to End method.

This paper proposes a CRC error verification method for SPI and I2C buses of automotive semiconductors. In automotive semiconductors, when an error occurs in communication and an incorrect value is transmitted, fatal results may occur. Unlike LIN communication and CAN communication, in communication such as SPI and I2C, there is no frame for detecting an error, so some definitions of new standards are required. Therefore, in this paper, the CRC error detection mode is newly defined in the SPI and I2C communication protocols, and the verification is presented by designing it in hardware.

Since the basic built-in-test, prognostic health management (PHM) has evolved into more sophisticated and complex systems with advanced warning and failure detection devices. Aerospace and military systems, manufacturing equipment, structural monitoring, automotive electronic systems and telecommunication systems are examples of fields in which PHM has been fully utilized. Nowadays, the automotive electronic system has become more sophisticated and increasingly dependent on accurate sensors and reliable microprocessors to perform vehicle control functions which help to detect faults and to predict the remaining useful life of automotive parts. As the complication of automotive system increases, the need for intelligent PHM becomes more significant. Given enormous potential to be developed lays ahead, this paper presents findings and discussions on the trends of automotive PHM research with the expectation to offer opportunity for further improving the current technologies and methods to be applied into more advanced applications.

To keep up with the regulation of OBD II(on board diagnostics II), many detection methods for engine misfire have been developed. Among them, the method of using the crankshaft speed fluctuation is the most noticeable in the point of view of lower cost and easier installation than any others. On the basis of the results obtained from the previous engine-dynamometer test, the integrating torque index (ITI) has been introduced. In this research, the instrumental and the interfacing systems to engine control unit(ECU) are developed for the vehicle test. Therefore, the vehicle and chassis-dynamometer test can be carried out in addition to the rough road test. From this test, the previousproposed method proved that it can be applied to the real vehicle.

This paper presents experimental results for human drivers' driving patterns and an Adaptive Cruise Control(ACC) strategy. Analyses have shown that female drivers' driving characteristic values such as time-gap and minimum clearance are larger than those of male drivers'. Human drivers tend to have more clearance margins at high speed than at low speed. At low speed, drivers are much more sensitive to the desired clearance than at high speed. A multi-vehicle detection method is presented to improve ride quality of an ACC. Simulation results have shown that the proposed ACC can provide superior performance compared to the ACC strategy which uses a single-vehicle detection method.

Impulsive acoustic and vibration signals within gear are often induced by impacting of fault tooths in gear. Thus the detection of these impulses can be useful for fault diagnosis. Recently there is an increasing trend towards the use of higher order statistics for fault detection within mechanical systems based on the observation that impulsive signals then to increase the kurtosis values. We show that the fourth order Wigner Moment Spectrum, called the Wigner Trispectrum, has found superior detection performance to second order Wigner distribution for typical impulsive signals in a condition monitoring application. These methods are also applied to data sets measured within an industrial gear box.

Knock and misfire, kinds of abnormal combustion, are highly undesirable effect on the internal combustion engine. So, it is important to detect these avnormal combuition and control the ignition timing etc. to avoid these mal-effect factors in real engine system. In this study, the system which detects the knock and the misfire using by spark plug is presented. This system is based on the effect of modulation breakdown voltage(BDV) between the spark gaps. The voltage drop between spark plug electrodes, when an electrical breakdown is initiated, depends on the temperature and pressure in combustion chamber. So, we can detect knock and misfire that produce changes in gas temperature and pressure (consequently, its density) using by BDV signal change which carries information about the character of combustion.

This paper proposes a method to detect misfired cylinders by the exhaust pressure ascent rate. The misfire is generated by faults of electric system or faults of fuel delivery system. It is one of the abnormal combustions. Therefore, it increases the unburned hydrocarbon and the carbon monoxide and affects a bad influence to the 3-way catalyst. The misfire causes to decrease the power of the engine and increase the consumption of the fuel. Early detection and correction of the misfired cylinders can prevent these unusual phenomena. The misfired cylinders can be detected by the comparison of exhaust pressure ascent rate during each cycle. The exhaust pressure ascent rate is defined as pressure rise per time. Our experimental results showed that the proposed method is effective in the detection of the misfired cylinders on a gasoline engine regardless loads and revolutions of the engine.
