  • With the explosion of digital devices, interaction technologies between human and devices are required more than ever. Especially, hand gesture recognition is advantageous in that it can be easily used. It is divided into the two groups: the contact sensor and the non-contact sensor. Compared with non-contact gesture recognition, the advantage of contact gesture recognition is that it is able to classify gestures that disappear from the sensor's sight. Also, since there is direct contacted with the user, relatively accurate information can be acquired. Electromyography (EMG) and force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) are the typical methods used for contact gesture recognition based on muscle activities. The sensors, however, are generally too sensitive to environmental disturbances such as electrical noises, electromagnetic signals and so on. In this paper, we propose a novel contact gesture recognition method based on Flexible Epidermal Tactile Sensor Array (FETSA) that is used to measure electrical signals according to movements of the wrist. To recognize gestures using FETSA, we extracted feature sets, and the gestures were subsequently classified using the support vector machine. The performance of the proposed gesture recognition method is very promising in comparison with two previous non-contact and contact gesture recognition studies.

  • This paper presents a 3D object recognition method for generation of 3D environmental map or obstacle recognition of mobile robots. An active light source projects a stripe pattern of light onto the object surface, while the camera observes the projected pattern from its offset point. The system consists of a laser unit and a camera on a pan/tilt device. The line segment in 2D camera image implies an object surface plane. The scaling, filtering, edge extraction, object extraction and line thinning are used for the enhancement of the light stripe image. We can get faithful depth informations of the object surface from the line segment interpretation. The performance of the proposed method has demonstrated in detail through the experiments for varies type objects. Experimental results show that the method has a good position accuracy, effectively eliminates optical noises in the image, greatly reduces memory requirement, and also greatly cut down the image processing time for the 3D object recognition compared to the conventional object recognition.

  • 현재 사업용 차량의 교통사고 감소 및 안전운전에 대한 사회적 요구에 부흥하기 위하여 디지털 주행기록계, 차량용 블랙박스 등 다양한 형태의 시스템이 사용되고 있으나, 이러한 시스템은 주행 후 저장된 차량데이터를 기반으로 위험 운전 여부를 분석하기 때문에 위험운전을 실시간으로 예방하기에는 큰 한계성을 있는 것이 사실이다. 이에 본 연구의 선행연구에서는 차량 운전자의 운전행태에 따른 차량동역학 데이터를 저장 판단하여 운전자에게 실시간으로 경고정보를 제공하여 운전자의 안전운전을 향상 시킬 수 있는 위험운전 판단장치를 개발하였으나, 이에 대한 성능평가가 이루어 지지 않고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기 개발된 위험운전 판단장치의 성능평가를 위하여 DGPS를 이용한 정밀위치 인식시스템을 구축하였다. 실험 결과 위험운전 판단장치에서 취득되는 차량 동역학 데이터와 DGPS를 통하여 취득되는 데이터가 거의 일치하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 구축된 정밀위치 인식시스템을 통하여 위험운전 판단장치의 성능이 검증되면 차량의 위험운전 관리에 매우 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • A computer vision system was designed and validated to recognize an individual Holstein cattle by processing images of their body patterns. This system involves image capture, image pre-processing, algorithm processing, and an artificial neural network recognition algorithm. Optimum management of individuals is one of the most important factors in keeping cattle healthy and productive. In this study, an image-processing system was used to recognize individual Holstein cattle by identifying the body-pattern images captured by a charge-coupled device (CCD). A recognition system was developed and applied to acquire images of 49 cattles. The pixel values of the body images were transformed into input data comprising binary signals for the neural network. Images of the 49 cattle were analyzed to learn input layer elements, and ten cattles were used to verify the output layer elements in the neural network by using an individual recognition program. The system proved to be reliable for the individual recognition of cattles in natural light.

  • Recently, the number of jellyfish has been rapidly grown because of the global warming, the increase of marine structures, pollution, and etc. The increased jellyfish is a threat to the marine ecosystem and induces a huge damage to fishery industries, seaside power plants, and beach industries. To overcome this problem, a manual jellyfish dissecting device and pump system for jellyfish removal have been developed by researchers. However, the systems need too many human operators and their benefit to cost is not so good. Thus, in this paper, the design, implementation, and experiments of autonomous jellyfish removal robot system, named JEROS, have been presented. The JEROS consists of an unmanned surface vehicle (USV), a device for jellyfish removal, an electrical control system, an autonomous navigation system, and a vision-based jellyfish detection system. The USV was designed as a twin hull-type ship, and a jellyfish removal device consists of a net for gathering jellyfish and a blades-equipped propeller for dissecting jellyfish. The autonomous navigation system starts by generating an efficient path for jellyfish removal when the location of jellyfish is received from a remote server or recognized by a vision system. The location of JEROS is estimated by IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) and GPS, and jellyfish is eliminated while tracking the path. The performance of the vision-based jellyfish recognition, navigation, and jellyfish removal was demonstrated through field tests in the Masan and Jindong harbors in the southern coast of Korea.

  • According to the higher dependence of contemporary firms on data digitalization and the information technology, the role and importance of Information Security Management (ISM) is getting higher. Thus, there is a need to arrange proper procedure and a series of device within the organization in order to reduce diverse security risks, which take place from the inside and the outside of firm. In other words, prior examination for reinforcing recognition of ISM, and of a systematic performance method in the refined form is important. This study investigate the key variables influencing the ISM. Thus, this study suggests firm environmental factors that include four exogenous variables, market volatility, task interdependence, perceived benefits, and coordination mechanism affecting awareness of ISM. In addition, it proposes a concept of the ISM process with awareness, development, and performance, and examines the moderating effects of regulatory influence. The research model was tested by using Structural Equation Modeling, via SmartPLS 2.0 analysis on a sample collected from 186 employees in various industries. The research results provide the evidence that supports the tested hypotheses except significance of coordination mechanism. The implications of the findings suggest a new theoretical framework of the ISM and offers important solutions for the practical application guidelines.
