Mobile patrol robots are mainly used in aerospace and military engineering because they can work at dangerous environment replacing a man. This paper presents a study on the remote monitoring and control system of a mobile patrol robot platform using TCP/IP. The mobile robot consists of intel PXA270 and linux-based system. It can get environment information such as images, temperature, humidity and slope by using two cameras and various sensors. And it transmits information data to a monitoring system through the ad-hoc network which is one of wireless network solutions. At this time, a mobile robot is a server and a monitoring system is a client. Users can monitor environment information which is received from a mobile robot by an application based on PC. We have used TCP/IP protocol, socket programming, interface technique of process and devices and control algorithm to embody the mobile robot and its monitoring system. Experimental results shows that the system can be utilized as a remote patrol monitoring tool.

무선센서네트워크는 편리함을 제공해주며, 생활의 변혁을 가져오고 있다. 하지만, 무선센서네트워크의 특성상 노출된 상태로 센서 데이터를 수집하는 관계로 악의적인 공격을 받기도 또한 쉽다. 이에 본 연구에서는 PXA270 프로세서를 탑재한 임베디드 보드를 이용한 보안시스템을 제시함으로써, 취약점이 있는 보안 분야에 도움을 줄 수 있다.

In wireless and handheld platforms area, performance, power and cost are key metrics for product success. This is driving increasing levels of on-chip integration in state-of-the-art application processors. The purpose of this project is to optimize and design the energy-efficient embedded system that properly displays video and audio in real time. The requirements are for the media player to be capable of decoding real-time streaming video and audio with the least possible energy consumption for a variety of different clips at different resolutions. We implemented this Linux based multimedia player on Intel's PXA27x platform.

본 논문에서는 PXA270 임베디드 시스템을 이용한 거동관리 프로그램 개발한다. 개발 프로그램의 목적은 혼자 있는 환자 또는 독거노인의 거동을 관리함으로서 응급상황을 신속히 처리하도록 한다. 우선 개발 프로그램은 웹 카메라(QuickCam Pro5000)를 사용하여 Visual Studio 2005로 기본프로그램을 작성하였다. 웹 카메라로 부터 영상을 받아온 후 기준영상을 등록을 한다. 다음 단계로 감시되고 있는 영상에 사람이 들어오거나 움직이는 물체가 있다면 감시영상에서 기준영상을 뺀 차영상 기법을 이용하여 지속적으로 물체를 추적 한 다음 물체가 일정시간 이상 움직이지 않는다면 경고 메세지를 출력하게 된다. 최종적으로 개발된 알고리즘을 임베디드 시스템인 PXA270에 탑재하기 위하여 Embedded Visual C++ 4.0을 이용하여 증명 한 후, 실험을 통하여 제안방법의 타당성올 검토한다.

We propose a novel programmable miniature vision module based on a custom designed analog VLSI (aVLSI) chip. The vision module consists of the optical flow vision sensor embedded with commercial off-the-shelves digital hardware; in our case is the Intel XScale PXA270 processor enforced with a programmable gate array device. The aVLSI sensor provides gray-scale imager data as well as smooth optical flow estimates, thus each pixel gives a triplet of information that can be continuously read out as three independent images. The particular computational architecture of the custom designed sensor, which is fully parallel and also analog, allows for efficient real-time estimations of the smooth optical flow. The Intel XScale PXA270 controls the sensor read-out and furthermore allows, together with the programmable gate array, for additional higher level processing of the intensity image and optical flow data. It also provides the necessary standard interface such that the module can be easily programmed and integrated into different vision systems, or even form a complete stand-alone vision system itself. The low power consumption, small size and flexible interface of the proposed vision module suggests that it could be particularly well suited as a vision system in an autonomous robotics platform and especially well suited for educational projects in the robotic sciences.

Portable devices generally have limited energy sources, so there is a need to minimize the power consumption of processor using energy conservation methods. One of the most common energy conservation methods is dynamic voltage scaling (DVS). In this paper, we propose a new DVS algorithm which uses workload of application to determine frequency and voltage of processors. The posed DVS algorithm consists of DVS module in kernel and specified function in application. The DVS module monitors the processor utilization and changes frequency and voltage periodically. The other part monitors workload of application. With these two procedures, the processor can change the performance level to meet their deadline while consuming less energy. We implemented the proposed DVS algorithm on PXA270 processor with Linux 2.6 kernel.

Many lip region detection methods have been developed in PC environment. But the existing methods are difficult to run on real-time in resource limited mobile devices. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a real-time lip region detection method for lipreading in Mobile device. It detects face region by using adaptive face color information. After that, it detects lip region by using geometrical relation between eyes and lips. The proposed method is implemented in a smart phone with Intel PXA 270 embedded processor and 386MB memory. Experimental results show that the proposed method runs at the speed 9.5 frame/see and the correct detection rate was 98.8% for 574 images.

In this paper, we propose an effective web service software platform for remote monitoring and control. We removed the servlet container for better web service performance so as to improve the gSOAP processing which is an essential element of web service implementation. Furthermore, we designed the web service server/client software platform which can be applied to robot or ubiquitous sensor applications. For validation of this study we tested it by manufacturing robot hardware for monitoring control which combined tanks and sensors on a LDS4000 engine board mounted with a PXA270 processor. The practical excellence and the efficiency of the result of this study was validated by the comparison of gSOAP message exchange load between the web service client application and the conventional remote monitoring control technique through a web server.

A mobile device accesses large-sized data in object-based IP storage as an object unit over IP network. It relies heavily on a WLAN device, which has been known as one of the major power consumers. This paper designs and implements low-power object-based IP storage for mobile devices using an efficient WLAN power control. The proposed WLAN power control exploits prefetch buffer to maximize the idleness for incoming network traffic and controls available WLAN power modes to minimize the power consumption. Our experimental results reveal that the proposed WLAN control can save the total power consumption in a PXA270-based mobile device about 9% while playing the multimedia contents through an object-based IP storage device
