본 논문는 대각선 주행이 가능한 전방향 퍼스널 모빌리티의 메커니즘을 제안한다. 현대 사회에서 이동성은 인간의 기본적인 활동을 영위하는데 수반되는 전제조건이다. 퍼스널 모빌리티는 새로운 이동수단으로 자동차와 동일한 바퀴구조를 가지고 있으며 이동성 역시 자동차와 유사하다. 최근 노약자와 교통약자를 위한 퍼스널 모빌리티도 4륜 전동카트가 널리 보급되었다. 일반적으로 전동카트는 주행경로를 변경할 때 차체는 조향하는 방향으로 회전하며 이 때 곡률반경에 따른 충분한 공간을 확보해야 한다. 제안하는 퍼스널 모빌리티는 대각선 주행이 가능해지면서 이동성의 한계를 극복할 수 있다. 또한 주행경로에 장애물이 존재하거나 건물내부와 같은 좁은 공간에서도 주행이 가능해지면서 교통약자도 다양한 주행환경을 극복할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 제안하는 퍼스널 모빌리티의 메커니즘과 개발한 퍼스널 모빌리티의 조향성능을 실험하고 대각선 주행이 가능함을 입증한다.

In this study, the status of global advanced air mobility (AAM) was investigated to derive information and communications technologies (ICTs) that should be prepared according to directions of domestic AAM development. AAM is an urban air traffic system for moving from city to city by electric vertical take-off and landing or personal aircraft. It is expected to establish a three-dimensional air traffic system that can solve ground traffic congestion caused by the rapid global urbanization. With the full-scale commercialization of AAM solutions, high-density air traffic is expected, and with the advent of the personal air vehicle (PAV), the flight space usage is expected to expand. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a safe AAM service through early research on core ICTs for autonomous flight.

최근 개인형 이동수단의 보급과 이용의 증가에 따라 보행환경은 더욱 열악해지고 있으며 이와 관련한 안전사고도 급증하고 있는 상황이다. 이에 본 연구는 개인형 이동수단의 보행장애 요소와 관련된 현황조사를 실시하여 이를 통한 문제점을 파악하고 전문가의 의견조사를 통해 개인형 이동수단의 규제를 포함한 교통약자의 보행환경 개선을 위한 방안을 다음과 같이 제시한다. 개인형 이동수단의 보행공간 내 이동을 원칙적으로 금지하여야 하며 주행이 불가피한 경우 제한속도를 규정함으로써 교통약자의 안전하고 편리한 보행권을 확보해주어야 할 것이다. 주차 공간은 차로부의 노외 주차구역이나 보도와 차로 경계부에 장애물 구역을 조성하여 해당 구역에만 하도록 해야 할 것이며 이를 지키지 않는 불법방치된 이동수단의 수거와 관련한 규제가 필요하다. 기존의 자동차 중심의 도로에서 저·중속 이동수단 이용을 고려한 도로 구조로의 전환이 필요하다.

Recently, the popularization of personal mobility(PM) has made it possible to see many electric scooters. The energy source of personal transportation used by the general public and the disabled can be seen as environmentally friendly as electricity. Personal transportation means are divided into small electric vehicles because they use electric energy, and they are being treated as new models by automobile manufacturers in each country and spurring development. On the other hand, personal transportation means may cause various types of traffic accidents as they travel between roads and a human walk. In order to prevent such accidents, it is judged that the enactment of laws on the establishment of specifications for electric scooters, which are personal transportation means, and the method of restricting road operation should be given priority. The electric scooter is basically different from the conventional vehicle. The steering shaft of the steering system applied to the electric scooter one to two is possible. 1 to 2 the front-wheel under the steering column is used. It is classified according to the number of wheel installed at the electric scooter is the vehicle body into 2 wheel - electric scooter, and 3 wheel - electric scooter and 4 wheel - electric scooter. In this study, we propose a steering shaft design model that can be applied to an electric scooter, one of personal transportation means. A design model for 1-shaft steering and 2-shafts steering that can be applied to electric scooters is proposed. In addition, we have produced the prototypes for the commercialization of the proposed models, and reviewed the pros and cons of the manufactured prototypes and models.

Purpose: The interest in the personal mobility started to grow and as the interest increases, there are growing concerns about the safety of it. The purpose of the study is to look at the types and dynamics of patients injured by the personal mobilities. Methods: This was a retrospective 2-year observational study, from January 2016 to December 2017, on the patients who visited the emergency center and the trauma center, with an injury related to driving the personal mobility. Cases of the personal mobility-related accident were collected based on electronic medical records and hospital emergency department-based injury in-depth surveillance data. Results: A total of 65 patients visited the emergency center and the trauma center, during this study period. Six patients of 50 adults admitted the alcohol consumption (12%) and two adult patients wore the helmet as the protection gear (3.1%). The number of the patients in 2017 rises three times more than the number of patients in 2016 (51 vs. 14). Injuries to the head and neck region (67.7%) was the most common, followed by the upper extremity (46.2%). Eleven patients (16.9%) were admitted to the hospital, of whom three were admitted to the intensive care unit due to intracranial hemorrhage. Nine patients underwent surgery. Conclusions: The use of the personal mobility will continue to grow and the accidents, caused by the vehicle, will increase along with it. The study showed the damage is worse than expected. Personal mobility currently has a limited safety laws and the riders are not yet fully aware of its danger. The improvement of the regulation of the personal mobility, safety education is needed.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the factors that contribute to head injuries among drivers of personal mobility devices and provide insights into safety perceptions. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data of 221 trauma patients obtained from electronic medical records and the National Emergency Department Information System (NEDIS) over one year, from August 1, 2021, to July 31, 2022. The patients, all in their 20s and 30s, presented to a single emergency medical center following personal mobility device accidents (motorcycles, electric scooters, and bicycles). Results: Among motorcycle riders, 18.2% were not wearing helmets, while the percentage of e-scooter riders not wearing helmets was 87.5%. Wearing a helmet was associated with a 71.2% lower likelihood of head injuries (OR=0.288, CI=0.163 to 0.509, p=0.000). Of the personal mobility devices, motorcycles had a 0.431 times lower odds ratio for head injury compared to e-scooters (p=0.009), and there was no significant difference between e-scooters and bicycles (p=0.776). Conclusion: It is imperative to strengthen safety regulations by mandating helmet use for riders of personal mobility devices. A system to enhance driving enforcement for electric scooters, which are increasingly popular among young adults, should also be established.
