  • In this paper, we present a centralized monitoring system for infant incubator using Bluetooth. Conventional monitoring systems for incubators require large space and wire connection, which causes the spatial restrictions. To overcome this disadvantage, centralized monitoring system is proposed for infant incubators using Bluetooth. The implemented system consists mainly of transmission systems and receiver systems. There are temperature sensors, humidity sensors, ECG measurement units and Bluetooth modules in the transmission systems. For temperature, humidity and ECG data, the transmission systems acquire them from the measuring modules in the incubator and transmits the signals using Bluetooth. In the receiver system, users can see the status of the infant by accessing the central monitoring host computer. That is, one can monitor the information on the temperature and the humidity in the incubator and Infant's ECG without dependence to a conventional bulky system. Also, the system manager in the receiver system can maintain centralized monitoring of the situations in all incubators and infant. The developed system will be useful in remote diagnosis of infant incubator In various environments.

  • Information collected from temperature, humidity, inclination, and pressure sensors using Raspberry Pi or Arduino is used in automatic constant temperature and constant humidity systems. In addition, by using it in the agricultural and livestock industry to remotely control the system with only a smartphone, workers in the agricultural and livestock industry can use it conveniently. In general, temperature and humidity are expressed in a line graph, etc., and the change is monitored in real time. The technology to visually express the temperature has recently been used intuitively by using an infrared device to test the fever of Corona 19. In this paper, the information collected from the Raspberry Pi and the DHT11 sensor is used to predict the temperature change in space through intuitive visualization and to make a immediate response. To this end, an algorithm was created to effectively visualize temperature and humidity, and data representation is possible even if some sensors are defective.

  • New polyelectrolytes derived from ionene-containing photocurable reactive oligomer (PIDM) were prepared for water-resistant humidity-sensitive membranes. The mixture of PIDM, hexamethylene dimethacrylate (HDM), pentaerythritol triacrylate dimer (SP1013), and photoinitiator was simultaneously coated on the sensor electrode with photoinitiated radical polymerization. The pretreatment of the substrates with vinyl-type silane-coupling reagent was performed for improving the water durability and stability of the sensors at high temperature and humidity. When the resistance dependences on the relative humidity of the crosslinked PIDMs were measured, it was found that the resistance varied three orders of magnitude between 20 and 90%RH, which was required for the humidity sensor operating at ambient humidity. Their hysteresis, temperature dependence, response time, water durability, and high temperature/humidity stabilities were measured and evaluated as a humidity-sensing membrane.

  • Inside the vehicle, temperature and humidity are suddenly changed. Accordingly, HVAC System's temperature control is very complicated. But, clarifying the relationship between temperature and humidity can reduce the control parameters. Therefore, this paper describes the relationship between temperature and humidity in the vehicle and presents a problem solving method in terms of control technologyThe vehicle sensor monitors the factors required for vehicle control and plays a role in enabling optimal control from the obtained information. Of these sensors, the driving environment of the driver is determined by the temperature and humidity inside the vehicle, and the characteristics of the vehicle suddenly change rapidly. Accordingly, HVAC System's temperature control is very complicated. But, clarifying the relationship between temperature and humidity can reduce the control parameters. Therefore, this paper describes the relationship between the temperature and humidity in the vehicle, and presents a method for controlling the temperature and humidity in the vehicle as an example.

  • For the Korean Next Generation Reactor(KNGR) development, LBB is considered for the Main Steam Line(MSL) piping inside its containment to achieve cost and safety Improvement. To apply LBB concept to MSL, leak sensors highly sensitive to humidity is required. In this paper, a ceramic material, MgCr$_2$O$_4$-TiO$_2$ has been developed as a humidity sensor for MSL applications. Experiments peformed to characterize the electrical conductivity shows that the conductivity of MgCr$_2$O$_4$-TiO$_2$ responds sensitively to both temperature and humidity changes. At a constant temperature below 10$0^{\circ}C$, the conductivity increases as the relative humidity increases, which makes the sensor favorable for application to the outside of MSL insulation layer But as temperature increases beyond 10$0^{\circ}C$, the sensor composition should be adjusted for the application to KNGR is to be made at temperature above 10$0^{\circ}C$.

  • The influence of water molecule on the electrical properties of single-walled carbon nanotube field effect transistors (SWNT-FETs) was reported. Conductance suppression was observed with the increase of the humidity. This can be explained by doping of the SWNT-FETs, which has p-type semiconductor characteristic, with the water molecules acting as an electron donor. However, after 65 % of humidity, conductance of the SWNT-FETs started to increase again, due to the opening of electron channels. Upon annealing at $400^{\circ}C$ in Ar atmosphere, conductance increases more than 500 %, and the threshold voltage shifts toward further positive gate voltages. The results of this experiment support possible application of single-walled carbon nanotubes for humidity sensing material.

  • The age of autonomous vehicles has come according to development of high performance sensing and artificial intelligence technologies. And importance of the vehicle's surrounding environment sensing and observation is increasing accordingly because of its stability and control efficiency. In this paper we propose an integrated platform for efficient networking, analysis and monitoring of multiple sensing data on the vehicle that are equiped with various automotive sensors such as GPS, weather radar, automotive radar, temperature and humidity sensors. From simulation results, we could see that the proposed platform could perform realtime analysis and monitoring of various sensing data that were observed from the vehicle sensors. And we expect that our system can support drivers or autonomous vehicles to recognize optimally various sudden or danger driving environments on the road.

  • Since the use of porous silicon for microsensors and microactuators is in the euly stage of study, only several application devices, such as light-emitting diodes and chemical sensors have so far been demonstrated. In this paper we present an overview of the present status of porous silicon sensors and actuators research with special emphasis on the applications of chemical sensors and optical devices. The capacitive type porous silicon humidity sensors had a nonlinear capacitance-humidity characteristic and a good sensitivity at higher humidity above $40\%RH$. The porous silicon $n^+-p-n^+$ device showed a sharp increase in current when exposed to an ethanol vapor. The $p^+-PSi-n^+$ diode fabricated on porous silicon diaphragm exhibited an optical switching characteristic, opening up its utility as an optical sensor or switch. The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum, taken from porous silicon under 365 nm excitation, had a broad emission, peaked at -610 nm. The electroluminescence(EL) from ITO/PSi/In LED had a broader spectrum with a blue shifted peak at around 535nm than that of the PL.
