Recently, most of PLC has been using widely in automation equipment that is needed for field of industry automation. HMI is essential system for effective Control of many numbers of PLC. Even though early HMI system was consists of simple analog devices, however, HMI system could control or supervise PLC through display screen since it embeds various digital parts by development of technology in these days. HMI system consists of three parts as HMI hardware, an operating program for HMI equipment and a HMI screen editor. Among these elements, a Program for editing screen of HMI should provide various screen elements that helps users to edit each screens displayed on HMI. In this study, we design and implement screen edit program by object-oriented method for small HMI equipment and propose Prototype of embedded HMI system.

In this paper, we propose a thin-film hydroponic plant cultivator using HMI display and IoT technology. Existing plant cultivators were difficult to manage due to soil-based cultivation, and it was difficult to optimize environmental conditions due to the open cultivation environment. In addition, there are problems with plant cultivation as immediate control is difficult and growth of plants is delayed. To solve this problem, a cultivation environment was established by connecting the MCU and sensors, and the environment information could be checked and quickly controlled by linking with the HMI display. Additionally, a case was applied to minimize changes in environmental information. Implementation of a thin-film hydroponic cultivation system made soil management easier, improved functionality through operation and control, and made it easy to understand environmental information through the display. The effectiveness of rapid growth was confirmed through crop cultivation experiments in existing growers and hydroponic growers. Future research directions will include optimizing growth information by transmitting and storing cultivation environment information and linking and comparing growth information using vision cameras. It is expected that this will enable efficient and stable plant cultivation.

In this paper, we propose the non-contact gesture recognition system and algorithm using proximity-based sensors. The system uses four IR receiving photodiode embedded on a single chip and an IR LED for small area. The goal of this paper is to use the proposed algorithm to solve the problem associated with bringing the four IR receivers close to each other and to implement a gesture sensor capable of recognizing eight directional gestures from a distance of 10cm and above. The proposed system was implemented on a FPGA board using Verilog HDL with Android host board. As a result of the implementation, a 2-D swipe gesture of fingers and palms of 3cm and 15cm width was recognized, and a recognition rate of more than 97% was achieved under various conditions. The proposed system is a low-power and non-contact HMI system that recognizes a simple but accurate motion. It can be used as an auxiliary interface to use simple functions such as calls, music, and games for portable devices using batteries.

The accelerated convergence of automobiles and ICT has led to an increase in in-vehicle electronic devices designed to enhance the safety and convenience of drivers. Consequently, the information presentation on in-vehicle display systems for drivers and passengers need to be taken into account in order to guarantee driving stability while satisfying the needs of UX-based design users. This study compared and evaluated requirements for information items shown on in-vehicle displays regarding driving safety and convenience by groups according to driving career. A total of 38 information items related to safety and convenience that can be displayed while driving and pulling over were collected. Their level of necessity was tested and evaluated by 234 drivers. Using the results, we conducted a comparative analysis on the requirements for information presentation on in-vehicle display systems by groups according to driving career.

복잡해져가고 있는 현재의 교통상황에서 최근 개발되고 있는 HUD(Head-up Display)의 경우는 기능이 다양하므로 운전중 많은 정보가 운전자에게 제시되어야 한다. 이러한 많은 정보를 제공하고 디스플레이하기에는 HUD의 크기에 한계가 있으며, 운전중 운전자에게 부하를 가중시켜 안전에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 HUD에 제공될 정보에 대하여 인간공학적 접근과 사용자들의 선호에 맞추는 HMI(Human Machine Interface)연구를 통하여 제시아이템에 대한 중요도 및 우선순위를 파악하고 제시아이템의 아이콘의 형태 및 색채를 결정하는 것은 운전중 안전사고에 대한 발생확률을 감소시킬 수 있을 것이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 제시 아이템과 제시 아이콘에 대한 중요도를 파악하였다. 그리고 제시 아이콘의 형태와 색채에 대한 주관적 평가를 통해 그에 대한 아이콘의 형태 및 색채에 대한 새로운 평가 방법에 의한 가이드라인을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 이러한 연구를 통하여 ITS내의 인간요소적인 측면을 고려하여 인간친화적인 ITS구축이 가능할 것이다.

Monitoring and control of the greenhouse environment play a decisive role in greenhouse crop production processes. The network system for greenhouse control was developed by using recent technologies of networking and wireless communications. In this paper, a remote monitoring and control system for greenhouse using a smartphone and a computer with internet has been developed. The system provides real-time remote greenhouse integrated management service which collects greenhouse environment information and controls greenhouse facilities based on sensors and equipments network. Graphical user interface for an integrated management system was designed with bases on the HMI and the experimental results showed that a sensor data and device status were collected by integrated management in real-time. Because the sensor data and device status can be displayed on a web page, transmitted using the server program to remote computer and mobile smartphone at the same time. The monitored-data can be downloaded, analyzed and saved from server program in real-time via mobile phone or internet at a remote place. Performance test results of the greenhouse control system has confirmed that all work successfully in accordance with the operating conditions. And data collections and display conditions, event actions, crops and equipments monitoring showed reliable results.
