Recent researches reveal that great benefit can be achieved for data gathering in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by employing mobile data collectors. In order to balance the energy consumption at sensor nodes and prolong the network lifetime, a multi-track large-scale mobile data collection mechanism (MTDCM) is proposed in this paper. MTDCM is composed of two phases: the Energy-balance Phase and the Data Collection Phase. In this mechanism, the energy-balance trajectories, the sleep-wakeup strategy and the data collection algorithm are determined. Theoretical analysis and performance simulations indicate that MTDCM is an energy efficient mechanism. It has prominent features on balancing the energy consumption and prolonging the network lifetime.

Recently, the monitoring technology of machining process is very important to improve productivity and quality in manufacturing filed. Such monitoring technology has been performed to measurement using vibration signal, acoustic emission signal and tool dynamometer. However, micro machining is limited small-scale parts machining because micro tool is very small and weakness to generate signal in micro machining process. Therefore, this study has efficient sensing technology for real monitoring system in micro machine that is proposed to supplement a disadvantage of single-sensor by multi sensor. From experimental result, it was evaluated tool wear and cutting situation according to repetitive slot cutting condition and changing cutting condition, and it was performed monitoring spindle rpm and condition according to compare acceleration signal with current signal.

NMR signals of two hemes were assigned to particular hemes in the crystal structures by nuclear Overhauser effect experiments. The results showed that the hemes with the highest and lowest redox potentials in the one-electron reduction process correspond to the hemes I and IV in the crystal structure.

In this paper, we presented the packaging technologies of CMOS ISFET(Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistor) pH sensor using post-CMOS process and MCP(Multi Chip Packaging). We have proposed and developed two types of packaging technology. one is one chip, which sensing layer is deposited on the gate metal of standard CMOS ISFET, the other is two chip type, which sensing layer is separated from CMOS ISFET and connected by bonding wire. These proposed packaging technologies would make it easy to fabricate CMOS ISFET pH sensor and to make variety types of pH sensor.

Tangible interface can be understood as a newly defined concept, which can provide an effective and seamless interaction between the human as a subjective existence and the cyberspace as an objective existence. Tactile sensation is essential for many exploration and manipulation tasks in the tangible space. In this paper, we suggest the design of an integrated tactile sensor-display system that provides both of sensing and feedback with kinesthetic force, pressure distribution, vibration and slip/stretch. A new tactile sensor with PDVF strips and display system with bimorph actuators has been developed and integrated by developed signal processing algorithm. In the scenario of haptic navigation in the tangible space, tactile feedback system is successfully experimented.

The electrical conductive polymers (ECPs) reported at my research group are introduced in this review, which works are started from the late Professor Su-Moon Park's pioneering research for polyaniline at the University of New Mexico. The electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties and their applications to sensor and energy conversion systems are briefly described. At first, the growth and degradation mechanism of polyaniline describes and we extend to polypyrrole, polyazulene, polydiaminonaphthalenes, and polyterthiophene derivatives. In addition, the preparation of monomer precursors having functional groups is briefly described that can give us many exceptional applications for several chemical reactions. We describe the application of these ECPs for the fabrication of chemical sensors, biosensors, biofuel cells, and solar cells.

A high sensitivity fiber optic temperature sensor based on a side-polished fiber (SPF) coupled to a tapered multimode overlay waveguide (MMOW) is proposed and studied. Both tapered and non-tapered MMOW were considered to study the effect of tapering of MMOW on the characteristics of the device and to investigate the criticality of the uniformity of the multimode overlay waveguide over the SPF. Present study shows that tapering of the MMOW can be used to tune the desired wavelength range without any loss in the sensitivity. Sensitivity up to 9 nm/$^{\circ}C$ within the temperature range of 25 to $100^{\circ}C$ can be achieved with the proposed sensor, almost 6 times higher compared even to state-of-the-art high-sensitivity grating-based fiber optic temperature sensors.

Recently, most machineries have been small size and mobile type. And human body insertion type endoscope and micro robot technology has been developed. Then the motors used in this field are developed in micro size such as about 2mm in diameter. The structure of this motor is similar to a general brushless DC(BLDC) motor but because of small size there is no position sensor such as hall sensor. In this paper, we propose synchronous driving method for micro BLDC motor without position sensor. We design and manufacture this driver and perform experiment to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper discusses the implementation of a rehabilitation center based on a ubiquitous sensor network. This paper discusses the implementation of a rehabilitation center based on a ubiquitous sensor network. We recognize that certain mild conditions requiring rehabilitation may be treated with minimal human supervision. In place of this constant human supervision, a variety of sensors are used to monitor the patient and rehabilitation progress. These sensors send data through a wireless Zigbee network to a server which stores the data and makes it available to a rehabilitation expert for analysis. This rehabilitation expert also issues rehabilitation prescriptions which are created based on the expert's determination of the patient's condition. By having the ability to control the rehabilitation equipment used, strictly enforce the assigned prescription, and constantly monitor the patient for any warning signs, the system ensures a safe and optimal rehabilitation session.
