본 논문은 6DOF 위치기반 자기장 센서(Liverty Latus, Pollhemus)를 사용한 가상현실 방송제작에서 사용할 수 있는 인터랙티브 증강현실 시스템, K-Pointer를 제안한다. 우리는 방송에서 추적 및 인식의 정확성을 높이기 위해 Pollemus사의 6DOF 자기장기반 위치 추적 센서 리버티(수신부,소스)와 라투스(송신부,마커), 그리고 4입력 버튼장치를 결합한 인터페이스를 가지고 기존 방송용 증강현실 시스템과 통합하여 새로운 인터랙티브 증강현실 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 시스템은 방송용 증강현실 그래픽 합성 시스템(수신부)과 센서의 위치정보와 버튼 이벤트를 전송하는 시스템(송신부)으로 구성되며, 센서추적정보와 버튼이벤트 정보는 UDP로 실시간으로 수신부로 전송된다. 우리는 사용자 손의 모션과 버튼이벤트로 그래픽 정보를 인터랙티브하게 제어할 수 있게 하였다. 결과적으로 본 시스템은 기존의 합성중심의 방송용 증강현실 시스템을 사용자의 모션 기반 그래픽을 제어할 수 있는 인터랙티브 증강현실시스템으로 그 기능을 확장 시킬 수 있게 한다. 제안된 시스템은 광학식 추적을 하지 않기 때문에 조명의 변화에 영향이 없으며, 라투스 수신기가 작기 때문에 손에 쥐었을 때 거의 보이지 않고 가려도 추적이 강인하여 버튼장치를 통해 사용자가 정확한 이벤트로 직접 그래픽을 그리거나 쉽게 제어할 수 있는 장점이 있다.

The magneto-impedance effect (MI effect) has been investigated in metal core/soft magnetic shell composite wires fabricated by electrodeposition of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ on Cu wire (diameter $190{\mu}m$). The diagonal impedances $Z_{zz}$ and $Z_{{\theta}{\theta}}$ in cylindrical coordinate showed strong MI effect for the magnetic field applied along z-axis, while the off-diagonal impedance $Z_{{\theta}z}$ showed very weak MI effect. We have tried to develop the Cu $core/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ shell composite wire having strong MI effect in off-diagonal impedance by electrodeposion under torsional strain. The core/shell composite wire electrodeposited under torsional angles above $270^{\circ}$ showed significantly enhanced MI effect in the off-diagonal impedance. The maximum MI effect was observed in the composite wire electrodeposited under torsional angle of $360^{\circ}$. The developed method to enhance off-diagonal MI effect is expected to increase the applicability of the core/shell composite wire to magnetic sensor material.

Real-time Aerial Monitoring System (RAMS) is to perform the rapid mapping in an emergency situation so that the geoinformation such as orthophoto and/or Digital Elevation Model is constructed in near real time. In this system, the GPS/INS plays an very important role in providing the position as well as the attitude information. Therefore, in this study, the performance of an IMU sensor which is supposed to be installed on board the RAMS is evaluated. And the integration algorithm of GPS/INS are tested with simulated dataset to find out which is more appropriate in real time mapping. According to the static and kinematic results, the sensor shows the position error of 3$\sim$4m and 2$\sim$3m, respectively. Also, it was verified that the sensor performs better on the attitude when the magnetic field sensor are used in the Aerospace mode. In the comparison of EKF and UKF, the overall performances shows not much differences in straight as well as in curved trajectory. However, the calculation time in EKF was appeared about 25 times faster than that of UKF, thus EKF seems to be the better selection in RAMS.

The Moving Search Radar System (MSRS) monitors sea areas by moving along the coast. Since the radar is initially aligned to the front of the vehicle, it is important to know the changes in the heading azimuth of the vehicle to quickly acquire the target azimuth from the radar after the MSRS has moved. The heading azimuth can be obtained using the gyro compass, the GPS compass or the electronic compass. The electronic compass is suitable for MSRS requiring fast maneuverability due to its small volume, short stabilization time and low price. However, using a geomagnetic sensor may result in an error due to the surrounding magnetic field. Errors can make early automatic tracking of the satellites difficult and can reduce the radar detection accuracy. Therefore, this paper proposes a method to automatically compensate for the error reflecting the correction value on the radar obtained by comparing the reference azimuth calculated by solving the geodesic inverse problem using two coordinates between the radar and the geostationary satellite with the actually-directed azimuth angle of the satellite antenna. The feasibility and convenience of the proposed method were verified by applying it to the MSRS in the field.

By employing a rapid solidification method and atmospheric annealing at $450^{\circ}C-1hr$, we were able to manufacture inexpensively granular CuCo alloy ribbons with thickness of $20{\mu}m$ showing giant magnetoresistance (GMR) ratio of more than 5% at a high magnetic field of 0.5T. To verify maximum MR effect, the MR ratio, saturation magnetization, and microstructure change were investigated with Co contents between 5 and 30 at%. It was possible to obtain GMR ratios of 5.2% at 1.2T, and 3% at 0.5T, which implies an appropriate MR for industrial purpose at a Co content of $8{\sim}l4%$. MR ratio was reduced rapidly at a Co content below 5% due to superparamagnetic effect and at a Co content above 20% due to agglomeration of Co clusters. Surface oxidation during rapid solidification and atmospheric annealing did not have much affect on MR ratio. Our result implies that our economic CuCo granular alloy ribbons may be appropriate for high magnetic field sensor applications with wide content range of $8{\sim}14$ at%Co.

We consider design factors for a SQUID sensor array to construct a 52-channel magnetocardiogram (MCG) system that can be used to measure tangential components of the cardiac magnetic fields. Nowadays, full-size multichannel MCG systems, which cover the whole signal area of a heart, are developed to improve the clinical analysis with high accuracy and to provide patients with comfort in the course of measurement. To design the full-size MCG system, we have to make a compromise between cost and performance. The cost is involved with the number of sensors, the number of the electronics, the size of a cooling dewar, the consumption of refrigerants for maintenance, and etc. The performance is the capability of covering the whole heart volume at once and of localizing current sources with a small error. In this study, we design the cost-effective arrangement of sensors for MCG by considering an adequate sensor interval and the confidence region of a tolerable localization error, which covers the heart. In order to fit the detector array on the cylindrical dewar economically, we removed the detectors that were located at the corners of the array square. Through simulations using the confidence region method, we verified that our design of the detector array was good enough to obtain whole information from the heart at a time. A result of the simulation also suggested that tangential-component MCG measurement could localize deeper current dipoles than normal-component MCG measurement with the same confidence volume; therefore, we conclude that measurement of the tangential component is more suitable to an MCG system than measurement of the normal component.

In this paper, in order to verify the performance of a localization algorithm using GPS as an auxiliary sensor, the algorithm was applied to a hovering-type autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to perform a field test. The applied algorithm is an algorithm to improve the accumulated positional error of dead reckoning using doppler velocity logger(DVL) and tilt-compensated compass module (TCM) mounted on the AUV. GPS when surfaced helps the algorithm to estimate the position and the heading bias error of TCM for geodetic north, which makes it possible to perform dead reckoning on north-east-down (NED) coordinates. As a result of field test performing heading control, it was judged that the algorithm could improve the positional error, enhance the operational capability of AUV and contribute to the research of underwater navigation depending on a magnetic compass.

In case of massive water leakage, it's crucial for field manager to quickly positioning the problematic valve and related ones. However, it's not easy for the system to find the corresponding valve and even if it's found, it can not respond quickly because it can't know the relevant information immediately. In this paper, we implement the system for identifying sluice valve positions using GPS and AR techniques. The proposed system is composed of hand held android device, remote database server and data acquisition device for DB creation. We utilize the android device's sensors including GPS, gyro, accelerometer, magnetic sensor. The system identifies the valve with matching between the position data from the remote database server, and current GPS locations of device. We use AR techniques to overlay the graphics pattern of valve positions and some additional informations on captured real scene. With this system, it will be fast and accurate for maintenance of sluice valve of municipal water system.

Recently, a new PSC (Prestressed Concrete) bridge system, which is supported by Concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (CFFRP) strut, has been introduced. This bridge is able to reduce self-weight and increase the width of traditional PSC bridges. However, no relevant research has been reported on local behavior of CFFRP strut in the bridge system. The purpose of this study is to investigate local behavior of CFFRP struts using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. Field tests were performed to examine the hoop strains and longitudinal strains of the FRP strut under various lateral positions and velocities of a test truck. It has been observed that CFFRP strut is under compression regardless of vehicle speed and location. However, the CFFRP strut is sensitive to the lateral position of vehicles in terms of strain magnitude. Results also indicated that the FBG sensors can faithfully record the hoop and longitudinal strains of the FRP strut without electro-magnetic interference.

In this paper, we propose the non-contact gesture recognition algorithm using 4- channel electrometer sensor array. ELF(Extremely Low Frequency) EMI and PLN are minimized because ambient electromagnetic noise around sensors has a significant impact on entire data in indoor environments. In this study, we transform AC-type data into DC-type data by applying a 10Hz LPF as well as a maximum buffer value extracting algorithm considering H/W sampling rate. In addition, we minimize the noise with the Kalman filter and extract 2-dimensional movement information by taking difference value between two cross-diagonal deployed sensors. We implemented the DTW gesture recognition algorithm using extracted data and the time delayed information of peak values. Our experiment results show that average correct classification rate is over 95% on five-gesture scenario.
