글로벌 포지셔닝 시스템(GPS)의 기술이 점점 발전하고 있으나, 그 정확성은 건물의 내부나 지하도로에서의 위치인식이 아닌, 실외에서의 위치인식에서만 적합하다. 건물의 내부나 지하도로에 대한 위치 인식의 응용분야에 대하여, 글로벌 포지셔닝 시스템은 빌딩의 내부나 지하도로에서 정확한 위치인식을 요구 받을 경우, 건축구조물들로 인하여 정확성을 달성할 수 없다. 왜냐하면 사람이 필요로 하는 공간은 건물의 내부나 지하도로에서 수 평방미터에 불과한 매우 작은 공간이기 때문이다. 위치추정에 기반을 둔 수신신호강도(RSS)는 거의 모든 건물과 지하도로에서 수신이 가능한 무선 근거리통신망, IEEE 802.11, WiFi 전파신호 위치추정을 이용한 방안으로서, 특별히, 매우 좋은 선택이 될 수 있다. 이와 같은 위치추정시스템들의 근본적인 필요성은 특정 위치에서 수신신호 강도를 이용하여 통신기지국으로부터 모바일장치에 이르는 위치의 평가를 가능하도록 하는 것이다. 이와 같은 과정에서 발생하는 다중 경로 페이딩 현상들은 위치추정에서 불확실성의 원인으로서, 수신신호강도를 예측하기 어렵게 만든다. 이와 같은 문제들을 해결하기 위하여, 신경망과 푸시-풀 평가 방법의 결합은 건물의 내부나 지하도로에서 모바일장치들을 이용하여 위치의 결정을 학습하고, 결정할 수 있도록 적용된다.

본 논문에서는 GPS(Global Positioning System)를 사용할 수 있는 실외와 GPS(Global Positioning System)를 사용할 수 없는 실내에서 Wi-Fi(Wireless Fidelity)를 이용한 안드로이드 기반의 위치 정보 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 보행자의 위치를 실내에서 추정하기 위해서는, 보행자의 위치에 상관없이 절대위치를 구하는 것이 필요하고, 보행자의 움직임에 따라서 상대위치를 연속적으로 추정하는 것이 필요하다. 보행자의 초기위치를 추정하기 위해서 Wi-Fi fingerprinting을 사용하였다. 기존의 Wi-Fi fingerprinting에서 가장 위치 오차가 작은 WKNN(Weighted K Nearest Neighbor) 알고리즘의 단점을 보완한 EWKNN(Enhanced Weighted K Nearest Neighbor) 알고리즘을 사용해 위치의 정확도를 높였다. 그리고 보행자의 상대위치를 추정하기 위해서는, 스마트폰에 탑재되어 있는 IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit)를 사용하였기 때문에 추가적인 장비가 필요하지 않았다.

There was an outbreak of COVID-19 on the Diamond Princess cruise ship. Distinguishing close contacts is the important problem to be addressed. Close contacts mean people who stays with the patients of disease like COVID-19 over a period of time. The passenger position on board can be obtained by indoor positioning technology. The feature of close contacts is similar location with COVID-19 patients. Therefore, this paper proposed the idea of distinguishing close contacts on board based on DBSCAN algorithm.

A mobile manipulator is a system with a robotic manipulator mounted on top of a mobile base. It has both indoor and outdoor applications for transporting or transferring materials. When a user gives commands, they are usually at high levels such as "move the object to the table," or "tidy the room." By intelligently decomposing these complex commands into several subtasks, the mobile manipulator can perform the tasks with a greater efficiency. One of the crucial subtasks for these commands is the pick-and-place task. For the mobile manipulator, selection of a good base position and orientation is essential to accomplishing this task. This paper presents an algorithm that determines one of the position and orientation of a mobile manipulator in order to complete the pick-and-place task without human intervention. Its effectiveness are shown for a mobile manipulator with 9 degrees-of-freedom in simulation.

A coaxial rotor flying robot is developed for surveying and reconnoitering various circumstances under calamity environment. The robot has two contrarotating rotors on a common axis, an embedded microcontroller, an IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit), an IR sensor for height control, a micro camera for surveillance, ultrasonic position sensors and wireless communication devices. A bell-bar mounted on the top of the upper rotor hub increases stability and improves flight performance. In this paper, we present a dynamic model of a coaxial rotor flying robot and design an embedded controller far the robot, and implement them to control the developed flying robot. Experimental results show that the proposed controller is valid for autonomous hovering and position control.

This paper shows a feasibility analysis results on RFID for car positioning system. Usually, a car navigation is mainly based on GPS combined with map-matching. However, in the case of poor visibility of satellites, GPS can not supply accurate position information continuously. In recent years, RFID has been considered to be one of key technologies in positioning and localization area. But its application and research results in the area of vehicular positioning are not popular. RFID system consists of tag, reader, antenna and software such as drivers and middleware. The main function of RFID system in a vehicular positioning is to retrieve ID recorded position information from tags which set on the center of road. We propose a positioning method for vehicles using RFID and we present some indoor and outdoor experiment results to show that the proposed method is available in vehicle operational environments.

Global localization is one of the essential issues for mobile robot navigation. In this study, an indoor global localization method is proposed which uses a Kinect sensor and a monocular upward-looking camera. The proposed method generates an environment map which consists of a grid map, a ceiling feature map from the upward-looking camera, and a spatial feature map obtained from the Kinect sensor. The method selects robot pose candidates using the spatial feature map and updates sample poses by particle filter based on the grid map. Localization success is determined by calculating the matching error from the ceiling feature map. In various experiments, the proposed method achieved a position accuracy of 0.12m and a position update speed of 10.4s, which is robust enough for real-world applications.

To achieve autonomous mobile robot navigation, accurate localization technique is the fundamental issue that should be addressed. In augmented reality, the position of a user is required for location-based services. This paper presents indoor localization using infrared reflective artificial landmarks. In order to minimize the disturbance to the user and to provide the ease of installation, the passive landmarks are used. The landmarks are made of coated film which reflects the infrared light efficiently. Infrared light is not visible, but the camera can capture the reflected infrared light. Once the artificial landmark is identified, the camera's relative position/orientation is estimated with respect to the landmark. In order to reduce the number of the required artificial landmarks for a given environment, the pan/tilt mechanism is developed together with the distortion correction algorithm.

The heat transfer model of ondol heating system is derived in the linear form. The step responses of On-Off controller, PID controller and Position type fuzzy controllers are compared in the sense of several aspects : variation of temperature feedback variable, variation of supplied heat quantity by the boiler, variation of flow rate, variation of thickness of the base, variation of the outdoor temperature.

This article describes the methods of a decision of the location which user points to move by an optical device like a laser pointer and a moving to that location. Using a conic mirror and CCD camera sensor, a robot observes a spot of user wanted point among an initiative, computes the location and azimuth and moves to that position. This system offers the brief data to a processor with simple devices. In these reason, we can reduce the time of a calculation to process of images and find the target by user point for carrying a robot. User points a laser spot on a point to be moved so that this sensor system in the robot, detecting the laser spot point with a conic mirror, laid on the robot, showing a camera. The camera is attached on the robot upper body and fixed parallel to the ground and the conic mirror.
