Since IoT devices include various sensors and drivers, application programmers need to understand the structure and characteristics of sensors and actuators. If the manufacturer provides the driver of the sensor or actuator, IoT development can be efficiently carried out, which is called the Plug & Play technique. What matters is that the technique proposed by this research team in the past are not suitable for Arduino or Raspberry-Pi, which are recently used. In this paper, we propose a USB sensor device that can be mounted on a Raspberry-Pi. When the device is plugged into the Raspberry-Pi, the built-in driver is transmitted and played. The configuration of the USB sensor device was presented, and considerations for chip selection for processing sensors and drivers were presented.

A sensor system was designed to measure real time vibro displacement of civil structure. The He-Ne laser is used for the displacement measuring method, because it guarantees short time stabilization, long time output power stability. Also, it guarantees simple maintenances and repairs under actual using condition. The line CCD image sensor(Tcd-142d) is used to detect the displacement of Ne-Ne laser responding to the vibro of civil structure. For accurate measurement and comparison, CDP-50 is used. Usually CDF-50 (Strain type displacement device) is used for the standard correction device of optical measurement equipments. The data processing part is consists of Optical sensor part, Wireless data transmission device, DAQp-1200, and LapView program. The displacement data of vibro from optical sensor part inputted to wireless data transmission device and then transmitted to DAQp-1200 in main control room. DAQp-1200 performs A/D conversion for the receiving data. After that the converted data inputted to computer system using LapView program for user display. The significance of this paper is to develope a convenient, accurate and lost saving real time displacement measurement system for the civil structure.

The objective of this study is to identify the requirements for a energy metering device and develop a real-time energy metering device for measuring energy (electricity) consumption of the electric railway vehicle during its operation. The study also evaluated the performance of the AC voltage sensor, current sensor, and data meter for the device and performed EMC tests such as surge and EFT (Burst). The performance tests showed that the percent errors of the AC voltage sensor and current sensor were ${\leq}0.1%$, and ${\leq}0.5%$ under 10~127V, and 10~250A, respectively. The result of surge and EFT (Burst) tests also indicated that the device had no malfunction in any wave (combination and ring waves) under the treat level with 2kV. The result of the field test also confirmed that the device had no malfunction in data metering.

Worldwide, studies on intelligent vehicles for the convenience of drivers have been actively conducted as the number of cars has increased. However, vehicle convenience enabled by buttons lowers the concentration on driving and hence poses as a huge threat to the safety of the driver. The use of one of the convenient features, impaired driving auxiliary equipment, is limited because of its complex usage, and this device also hinders the front view of the driver. This paper proposes a vehicle-control device for controlling the convenient features as well as changes in speed and direction using gestures and motions of the driver. This device consists of an ultrasonic sensor for recognizing movement, an arduino for accepting signal control functions and servo and DC motors apply to various vehicle parts. Firstly, the vehicle-control device was designed using a 3D CAD program known as Solid-works based on the size of the steering wheel. Then, through simulations, a suitable length for minimizing the absorbent between ultrasonic sensors was confirmed using a program known as COMSOL Multiphysics. Finally, simulation results were verified through experiments, and the optimal size of the device was identified through the number of errors.

This paper introduced a novel multi-gas sensor detector with simple signal processing algorithm. This device was evaluated by investigating the characteristics of combustible materials using fire-generated smell and smoke. Plural sensors including TGS821, TGS2442, and TGS260X were equipped to detect carbon monoxide, hydrogen gas, and gaseous air contaminants which exist in cigarette smoke, respectively. Signal processing algorithm based on the difference of response times in fire-generated gases was implemented with early and accurately fire detection from multiple gas sensing signals. All fire experiments were performed in a virtual fire chamber. The cigarette, cotton fiber, hair, polyester fiber, nylon fiber, paper, and bread were used as a combustible material. This analyzing software and sensor controlling algorithm were embedded into 8-bit micro-controller. Also the detected multiple gas sensor signals were simultaneously transferred to the personnel computer. The results showed that the air pollution detecting sensor could be used as an efficient sensor for a fire detector which showed high sensitivity in volatile organic compounds. The proposed detecting algorithm may give more information to us compared to the conventional method for determining a threshold value. A fire detecting device with a multi-sensor is likely to be a practical and commercial technology, which can be used for domestic and office environment as well as has a comparatively low cost and high efficiency compared to the conventional device.

Optimum characteristics of digital X-ray sensor components were analyzed to develop intra- oral dental digital X-ray image sensor using indirect method. Parametric analysis was carried out to optimize the phosphor thickness and the fiber optic plate (FOP) coupling to charge coupled device (CCD). X-ray absorption and light diffusion in the phosphor layer were analyzed by the Monte Carlo method. Real time X-ray image was obtained with prototype X- ray image sensor using general CCD camera with 1∼10 Ip/mm resolution. It has been previously shown that large resolution degradation in X-ray images was caused by miss alignment of FOP to CCD and optical adhesive selection. In this study, we reported that X-ray image quality was greatly improved by using optimized characteristics of alignment device and phosphor thickness.

기존의 센서노드 운영체제들은 응용프로그램에 대한 센서추상화를 지원하지 못한다. 따라서 응용이 센서를 위한 하드웨어, 디바이스 드라이버 등을 직접 개발해야 하는 부담을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 센서추상화를 지원하는 운영체제 구조를 제시한다. 제안된 운영체제는 추상화된 센서 HW 인터페이스 기반의 HAL을 제공하고 센서 접근을 위한 추상화된 API를 제공한다. 센서제작자는 HAL을 이용하여 센서디바이스 드라이버를 작성한다. 응용프로그래머는 센서 API를 이용하여 응용을 작성한다. 이러한 개발방식은 응용프로그래머의 부담을 크게 줄여서 USN 응용 개발을 활성화할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 첫째로, 센서장착을 용이하게 하는 표준화된 센서 HW 인터페이스를 정의하였다. 둘째로, 센서를 추상화한 센서접근 API를 제공하였다. 셋째로, 센서 디바이스 드라이버를 작성할 때 활용될 HAL 라이브러리를 정의하였다. 예제 응용 프로그램을 작성하여 본 논문에서 제안한 센서노드 운영체제가 센서 추상화를 성공적으로 지원하는 것을 보였다.

This article deals with an optical image stabilizer which moves an image sensor in the direction of cancelling the vibration caused by hand shaking to prevent a photographed image from blurring. The ball-guide way method adopted as a transfer device of the image sensor is easy to be manufactured because of its simple structure and is suitable to minimize the friction between mechanisms, but has weakness of a chance of physical defect such as groove and rising. In case that the movement of the transfer device equipped with the image sensor is blunted because a ball is stuck in defects of guide way, the performance of the image stabilizer falls down drastically. We propose a method to prevent the transfer device from blunting by applying artificial vibration. At this time, the artificial vibration should be designed under consideration of dynamic characteristics and specifications of the system to be discriminated from the vibration caused by hand shaking.

This study presents a vertical-type CMOS Hall device with improved sensitivity to detect a 3D magnetic field in various types of sensors or communication devices. To improve sensitivity, trenches are implanted next to the current input terminal, so that the Hall current becomes maximum. The effect of the dimension and location of trenches on sensitivity is simulated in the COMSOL simulator. A vertical-type Hall device with a width of $16{\mu}m$ and a height of $2{\mu}m$ is optimized for maximum sensitivity. The simulation result shows that it has a 23% better result than a conventional vertical-type CMOS Hall device without a trench.
