Burr is an undesirable projection as result of plastic deformation. Burr minimization and effective deburring process are required strongly to reduce the cost of the parts. In doing these efforts, the precise burr measurement must be provided for the efficient process. For this purpose the conoscopic holography sensors are selected before. However, it has been very difficult to measure micro burrs less than $10{\mu}m$ due to their tiny and sharp geometries as well as the effect of ambient vibration during scanning. A new micro burr measurement system using high precision. Conoprobe sensor and XY table can measure the micro burrs which is less than $10{\mu}m$. Experiments were carried out showing that micro burr around $10{\mu}m$ was successfully measured and analyzed.

Recently, interest that intra-abdominal pressure has been increased as change of pathophysiology to critical patients. The intra-abdominal pressure is measured by cystometry what can be available for non-inclusively. However, conventional methods have some problems such as low SNR, weakness of environment temperature, and unsuitable size of sensor. In this paper, a new subminiature pressure sensor module and sensing system are proposed using a sensor of semiconductor type and FPCB. The module is more stable, flexible, and smaller than the conventional catheter. The performance of the developed module is evaluated by various quantitative analysis indexes. The proposed sensor has the high sensitivity and suitable size for measurement of cystometry more than the conventional method. In order to prove efficiency between conventional and proposed method, proposed method compared for sensitivity, fixable, and size. The proposed method will be help measurement of intra-abdominal pressure of patients due to high accuracy and comfortableness.

MEMS technology with micro scale is complete system utilized as the sensor. micro electro device. The metallization of MEMS is very important to transfer the power operating the sensor and signal induced from sensor part. But in the MEMS structures local stress concentration and deformation is often happened by geometrical shape and different constraint on the metallization. Therefore. this paper studies the effect of supporting type and thickness ratio about thin film thickness of the substrate thickness for the residual stress variation caused by thermal load in the multi-layer thin film. Specimens were made from materials such as Al, Au and Cu and uniform thermal load was applied, repeatedly. The residual stress was measured by FEA and nano-indentation using AFM. Generally, the specimen made of Al induced the large residual stress and the 1st layer made of Al reduced the residual stress about half percent than 2nd layer. Specimen made of Cu and Au being the lower thermal expansion coefficient induce the minimum residual stress. Similarly the lowest indentation length was measured in the Au_Cu specimen by nano-indentation.

Pulsed laser-based optical sensor monitoring systems for real time microplastic particle counting are proposed and developed in this study. To develop our real time monitoring system, we used a 450 nm pulsed laser and a photomultiplier with very high quantum efficiency. First, we demonstrated that the microplastic particle counting system could detect standard micro bead samples of 100, 250, and $500{\mu}m$ in river water. We then performed research concerning pulsed laser-based optical spectral sensor systems for real time microplastic monitoring. Additionally, we demonstrated that the real time microplastic remote monitoring system using LoRa communications could detect microplastic in the tap water resource protection area.

The micro heater with PSG/$Si_{3}N_{4}$ diaphragm and platinum heater pattern was designed for micro-gas sensor fabrication. The platinum heater and the platinum electrode for sensing layer were designed on the same plane and fabricated in the single photolithography process. The thermal analyses including temperature distribution over the diaphragm and power consumption of the heater were carried by finite element method. The thermal properties of the microsensor with both heater and sensing electrode on the same plane was compared with that of the typical microsensor which had the structure of sensing layer/insulator/heater on the diaphragm.

In this study, a pressure sensor for each displacement was fabricated based on the silicon-based pressure sensor obtained through simulation results. Wires were bonded to the pressure sensor, and a piezoresistive pressure sensor was inserted into the printed circuit board (PCB) base by directly connecting a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) sensor and a readout integrated circuit (ROIC) for signal processing. In addition, to prevent exposure, a non-conductive liquid silicone was injected into the sensor and the entire ROIC using a pipette. The packaging proceeded to block from the outside. Performing such packaging, comparing simple contact with strong contact, and confirming that the measured pulse wavelength appears accurately.

This study was conducted to develop a grain moisture content measurement sensor for automatic control of rough rice drying by natural air. For the above objective, the electrod type sensor was designed and tested. The sensor was able to produce electrical resistance which changes with moisture content of grain. An A/D converter and a micro-computer wed for processing measurement data of sensor. The developed sensor satisfied most design requirements and the results of statistical analysis show that there it no difference between the measurement method of sensor developed and of the dry-oven. Using the developed sensor and measurement system, we are able to measure moisture content of rough rice automatically in drying by natural air.

This work presents a smart water quality sensor for hydroponic plant growing applications. The proposed sensor can effectively measure pH level and electrical conductivity of the water solution. The micro-controller incorporated in the sensor processes the raw sensor data, and converts it into a readable format. In addition, through the mobile interface realized using a WiFi module, the sensor can send data to the web server database that collects and stores the data. The data stored in the web server can be accessed by a personal computer or smart phone. The prototype sensor has been implemented, and the operations have been verified under an actual hydroponic plant growing application.
