This paper deals with the development of a contact-type counting device using a piezoelectric polymer film as a sensor. The piezoelectric and vibration characteristics of the film under a bending vibration were investigated theoretically and experimentally. A counting device, which includes filters, an amplifier, an analog-digital converter, and a display, was designed and fabricated. The performance of the piezoelectric polymer sensor was evaluated in the sense of the responses to contact force, contact frequency, and contact speed. The life and the temperature effect were also investigated for the piezoelectric film sensor.

In this paper, we propose a new framework to control VR(Virtual reality) contents in real time using user's mouth-wind and acceleration sensor of mobile device. In VR, user interaction technology is important, but various user interface methods is still lacking. Most of the interaction technologies are hand touch screen touch or motion recognition. We propose a new interface technology that can interact with VR contents in real time using user's mouth-wind method with acceleration sensor. The direction of the mouth-wind is determined using the angle and position between the user and the mobile device, and the control position is adjusted using the acceleration sensor of the mobile device. Noise included in the size of the mouth wind is refined using a simple average filter. In order to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed technology, we show the result of interacting with contents in game and simulation in real time by applying control position and mouth-wind external force to the game.

In many areas of technology there are machines and systems controllable in up to six degrees of freedom. Helicopters and underwater vehicles, industrial robots are among the first representatives of this category. They need six degrees of freedom in order to move and orient within their workspace. An even broader and more explosively growing area is 3D computer graphics and virtual environment. In this work, functions of 3D input device are described and two types of commercial 3D input device are presented. Then, a preliminary experiment of a low cost 6 axis force/moment sensor is presented that can also be sued as a 3D input device. A low cost force/moment sensor and its application in robot teaching experiment is described. It computes the direction of 3 components of the force and 3 components of the moment applied by human holding the sensor by hand. The concept is shown by an experiment where the tool position and orientation of a robot in 3 dimensional space is controlled by the proposed sensor.

In this study, we develop a Korotkoff sound based automatic blood pressure measurement device including sensor, hardware, and analysis algorithm. PVDF-based sensor pattern was developed to function as a vibration sensor to detect of Korotkoff sounds, and the film's output was connected to an impedance-matching circuit. An algorithm for determining starting and ending points of the Korotkoff sounds was established, and clinical data from subjects were acquired and analyzed to find the relationship between the values obtained by the auscultatory method and from the developed device. The results from 86 out of 90 systolic measurements and 84 out of 90 diastolic measurements indicate that the developed device pass the validation criteria of the international protocol. Correlation coefficients for the values obtained by the auscultatory method and from the developed device were 0.982 and 0.980 for systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respectively. Blood pressure measurements based on Korotkoff sound signals obtained by using the developed PVDF film-based sensor module are accurate and highly correlated with measurements obtained by the traditional auscultatory method.

SAW Device는 필터이외에도 각종 물리 센서나 화학센서 혹은 ID Tag로 다양한 분야로 활용범위가 확대됨에 따라 다양한 SAW Device를 사용하기 위한 플랫폼이 요구된다. 현재 SAW ID나 Sensor는 많은 발전을 해왔지 만 SAW Sensor를 활용 할 수 있는 플랫폼의 발전은 미흡하기 때문에 본 논문에서는 ID Tag 나 Sensor를 비롯한 여러 SAW Sensor를 보다 편리 하게 활용할 수 있는 플랫폼에 대하여 연구 하였다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 플랫폼은 SAW Device를 인식 할 수 있는 RF 모듈과 SAW Device의 응답신호를 처리 할 수 있도록 고성능 프로세서를 이용한 매인 모듈로 구성하였다. 매인 모듈에서는 고성능 프로세서를 이용함으로서 GUI 환경 기반의 플랫폼을 구현하여 사용자들이 SAW Device에서 수집된 정보를 보다 편리하고 알아보기 쉽게 사용할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 사용한 플랫폼은 ARM9 코어의 프로세서를 기반의 플랫폼으로 Windows Embedded CE 6.0 OS를 사용하여 사용자에게 더욱 편리한 인터페이스를 제공할 수 있도록 하고, 개발자들에게는 센서를 활용한 다양한 어플리케이션을 보다 쉽게 적용할 수 있도록 하였다.

In this paper, the stability and effectiveness of the force control with a 6-axis compliance device are verified by performing comparative experiments with a commercial F/T sensor. The position/force control algorithm based on the Cartesian stiffness of a compliance device is briefly introduced and the design result of a 6-axis compliance device with F/T sensing is presented. The comparative experiments show that the force control using a compliance device is much more stable than that with rigid F/T sensor due to the enough compliance of a compliance device larger than robot positional resolution.

In an effort to reduce weaknesses of existing laser displacement sensor-based system, a sensing device for distance and balance of mask-substrate gap using touch-type displacement sensor was suggested. The device suggested in this study is expected to solve the problems of prices and reflections, by means of a touch-type sensor. LCD exposure equipment stage system including suggested sensing device was realized to assess the characteristics of sensing the balance and gap between mask and substrate. It was verified that a touch-type displacement sensor-based device to adjust the balance and distance of mask-substrate gap suggested in this study can be applicable to LCD expose equipment in practice.

This paper describes the design of a smart three-axis force sensor for measuring forces Fx, Fy and Fz. The smart three-axis force sensor is composed of a three-axis force sensor, a force-measuring device, housing and a cover, where the three-axis force sensor and the force-measuring device are inside the housing and the cover. The measuring device measures forces Fx, Fy and Fz from the three-axis force sensor, and calculates the resultant force using the measured forces, and then sends the resultant force and forces to a PC or other controller using RS-485 communication. The repeatability error and the non-linearity error of the smart three-axis force sensor are less than 0.03%, and the interference error of the sensor is less than 0.87%. It is thought that the sensor can be used for measuring forces in a robot, automatic systems and so on.

Biomedical mobile devices for ubiquitous healthcare consist of biomedical sensors and communication terminal. They have two types of configuration. One is the sensor-network type device using wired or wireless communication with intelligent sensors to acquire biomedical data. The other is the sensor embedded type device, where the data can be acquired directly by itself. There are many examples of sensor network type, such as, fall detection sensor, blood glucose sensor, and ECG sensors networked with commercial PDA phone and commercial phone terminal for ubiquitous healthcare. On the other hand, sensor embedded type mounts blood glucose sensor, accelerometer, and etc. on commercial phone. However, to enable true ubiquitous healthcare, motion sensing is essential, because users go around anywhere and their signals should be measured and monitored, when they are affected by the motion. Therefore, in this paper, two biomedical mobile devices with motion monitoring function were addressed. One is sensor-network type with motion monitoring function, which uses Zigbee communication to measure the ECG, PPG and acceleration. The other is sensor-embedded type with motion monitoring function, which also can measure the data and uses the built-in cellular phone network modem for remote connection. These devices are expected to be useful for ubiquitous healthcare in coming aged society in Korea.
