This paper describes an effort of improving performances of ultrasonic ranging system using V40 microprocessor. Conventional ranging systems are somewhat inaccurate because they do not have capability of compensating changes in medium condition. The novel ranging system overcomes this disadvantage by placing a dummy sensor functioning as a standard calibrating instrument in the same medium and by providing data processing capability using V40 controller. Also data communication between V40 and personal computer via RS232C makes it possible to use the ranging system for varieties of other applications such as analysis of static and dynamic system.

This paper handles the design of a real time traffic data acquisition system using loop detector and piezo-electric sensor to acquire the vehicle information EISA compatible parallel I/O interface card is designed to sample 30 I/O channels at variable rates for raw traffic data acquisition. The control software is designed to generate the traffic data informations from the raw data. The traffic data information provides vehicle length, speed, number of axles, etc. Vehicle types are detected and categorized into eleven types from the vehicle length, axles positions and axle counts information. The traffic information is formed into packet and transferred to the remote hosts through serial communications for ITS applications.

현재 상용화되어 있는 온실 환경제어시스템의 S/W 및 H/W는 서로 호환이 되지 않아 농민들이 원하는 맞춤형 복합 환경 제어시스템을 운영하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 다양한 제어알고리즘 및 장비를 적용시킬 수 있는 호환성이 향상된 온실 환경 제어인터페이스 모듈 성능평가를 목표로 한다. 센서 및 제어 인터페이스 모듈 성능평가를 위해 사용된 제어 시스템은 8 bit MCU가 적용된 전용 개발보드를 사용하였고, RS-232 통신 케이블을 사용하여 온실 환경 측정 데이터 값을 PC에서 수신할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한, 창개폐기, 환풍기를 사용하여 온실 내부 온/습도 환경조성을 하였다. 실험은 정오부터 제어장비를 작동시킨 후 1시간 간격으로 총 3시간 동안의 온실 내 온/습도의 변화량을 계측하였다. 3시간 중 1시간동안의 온/습도 값의 변화량을 계측한 결과 평균값은 각각 $33.21^{\circ}C$, 34.94%이었고 표준편차는 각각 $1.44^{\circ}C$, 2.74% 이었다. 제어 알고리즘은 단순한 ON/OFF 방법을 사용 하였고 총 2가지 제어장비를 사용하였으며 모두 정상 작동 하였다. 1시간동안 온실의 온도는 $30^{\circ}C{\sim}35^{\circ}C$사이를 유지하였으며, 습도는 30%~ 40% 사이로 최초 실험 목표였던 온실 내부의 온/습도 범위를 유지하였다. 이번 실험은 ON/OFF 방법의 제어 알고리즘을 사용하였지만 더욱 정밀한 온실 환경제어를 위하여 PID, 퍼지 제어 알고리즘을 추가하여 기상환경에 따른 제어범위를 더욱 세밀화 할 수 있도록 설계한다면 제어장비에 대한 효율성이 향상될 것이라 기대한다.

Theme park automation system is developed by using the RFID sensor reader, IIS web server, ASP.NET and MSSQL database in this paper. Its operation is that park entrance people checked automatically when he who possessed the ta8 passed the reader acquisition bound and its tag information is sent to the host computer through the RS-232 data acquisition system. Tag information and time data will be stored in the RFID database tables and reused to extract and distribute the entrance people for the purpose of each arrangement of each entertainment devices. First of all, we developed interface program between host and reader and then, programmed the related web site and database connection function using ASP.NET with $C\#$ and MSSQ. We also design and make an production of external Ant. to extend the acquisition range up to $30\~40$ cm using copper PCB plate. We confirmed the performance through the RFID test bed site.

KORDI(Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute) built a research vessel JANG-MOK with 40 G/T for a survey and observation of oceanographic environmental characteristics at coastal region in September 2005. This paper introduced the implementation for hardware and software of an integrated information network that loaded in JANG-MOK, and depicted the function of an integrated information network, such as an installation of ga-bit based network, RS232C serial & UDP network interface of instruments, a data logging software of measured data, Hawkeye II software for supporting the efficient survey works, and a real-time navigation viewer. In addition, we presents the another implementation method for an integrated information network of oceanographic research vessels.

An ubiquitous healthcare system for the home care of elderly persons was designed and implemented using wireless sensor network technology. The wireless technology for home-care purpose gives new possibilities for monitoring of vital parameter with wearable biomedical sensors, and will give the patient the freedom to be mobile and still be under continuously monitoring and thereby to better quality of patient care. Emphasis is placed on recent advances in wireless ECG system for cardiac event monitoring with particular attention to arrhythmia detection in patient. This paper presents a diagnostic system for cardiac arrhythmias from ECG data, using wireless sensor technology. The system also provides an application for recording activities, events and potentially important medical symptoms. The hardware allows data to be transmitted wirelessly from on-body sensor to the base station and then to PC/PDA. Data is also transmitted to a back-end server for analysis using wireless internet connection. Experiments were conducted using the system for activity monitoring, exercise monitoring and medical screening tests and present preliminary data and results.

In this paper, a control system for a complex microbial incubator was proposed. The proposed control system consists of a control unit, a communication unit, a power supply unit, and a control system of the complex microbial incubator. The controller of the complex microbial incubator is designed and manufactured to convert analog signals and digital signals, and control signals of sensors such as displays using LCD panels, water level sensors, temperature sensors, and pH concentration sensors. The water level sensor used is designed and manufactured to enable accurate water level measurement by using the IR laser method with excellent linearity in order to solve the problem that existing water level sensors are difficult to measure due to foreign substances such as bubbles. The temperature sensor is designed and used so that it has high accuracy and no cumulative resistance error by measuring using the thermal resistance principle. The communication unit consists of two LAN ports and one RS-232 port, and is designed and manufactured to transmit signals such as LCD panel, PCT panel, and load cell controller used in the complex microbial incubator to the control unit. The power supply unit is designed and manufactured to supply power by configuring it with three voltage supply terminals such as 24V, 12V and 5V so that the control unit and communication unit can operate smoothly. The control system of the complex microbial incubator uses PLC to control sensor values such as pH concentration sensor, temperature sensor, and water level sensor, and the operation of circulation pump, circulation valve, rotary pump, and inverter load cell used for cultivation. In order to evaluate the performance of the control system of the proposed complex microbial incubator, the result of the experiment conducted by the accredited certification body showed that the range of water level measurement sensitivity was -0.41mm~1.59mm, and the range of change in water temperature was ±0.41℃, which is currently commercially available. It was confirmed that the product operates with better performance than the performance of the products. Therefore, the effectiveness of the control system of the complex microbial incubator proposed in this paper was demonstrated.
