In this paper, a new protocol-based approach was proposed for development of a ubiquitous vision system. It is possible to apply the approach by regarding the ubiquitous vision system as a multiagent system. Thus, each vision sensor can be regarded as an agent (vision agent). Each vision agent independently performs exact segmentation for a target by color and motion information, visual tracking for multiple targets in real-time, and location estimation by a simple perspective transform. Matching problem for the identity of a target during handover between vision agents is solved by the Identified Contract Net (ICN) protocol implemented for the protocol-based approach. The protocol-based approach by the ICN protocol is independent of the number of vision agents and moreover the approach doesn't need calibration and overlapped region between vision agents. Therefore, the ICN protocol raises speed, scalability, and modularity of the system. The protocol-based approach was successfully applied for our ubiquitous vision system and operated well through several experiments.

Various techniques have been proposed for detection and tracking of targets in order to develop a real-world computer vision system, e.g., visual surveillance systems, intelligent transport systems (ITSs), and so forth. Especially, the idea of distributed vision system is required to realize these techniques in a wide-spread area. In this paper, we develop a ubiquitous vision system for location-awareness of multiple targets. Here, each vision sensor that the system is composed of can perform exact segmentation for a target by color and motion information, and visual tracking for multiple targets in real-time. We construct the ubiquitous vision system as the multiagent system by regarding each vision sensor as the agent (the vision agent). Therefore, we solve matching problem for the identity of a target as handover by protocol-based approach. We propose the identified contract net (ICN) protocol for the approach. The ICN protocol not only is independent of the number of vision agents but also doesn't need calibration between vision agents. Therefore, the ICN protocol raises speed, scalability, and modularity of the system. We adapt the ICN protocol in our ubiquitous vision system that we construct in order to make an experiment. Our ubiquitous vision system shows us reliable results and the ICN protocol is successfully operated through several experiments.

In this paper, we present a mobile robot localization solution by using a Ubiquitous Vision System (UVS). The collective information gathered by multiple cameras that are strategically placed has many advantages. For example, aggregation of information from multiple viewpoints reduces the uncertainty about the robots' positions. We construct UVS as a multi-agent system by regarding each vision sensor as one vision agent (VA). Each VA performs target segmentation by color and motion information as well as visual tracking for multiple objects. Our modified identified contractnet (ICN) protocol is used for communication between VAs to coordinate multitask. This protocol raises scalability and modularity of thesystem because of independent number of VAs and needless calibration. Furthermore, the handover between VAs by using ICN is seamless. Experimental results show the robustness of the solution with respect to a widespread area. The performance in indoor environments shows the feasibility of the proposed solution in real-time.

본 논문은 유비쿼터스 이동로봇의 자기위치인식에 적용되는 비젼시스템의 왜곡된 영상을 보정하기 위한 실용적인 방법을 제안하다. 이동로봇에서 자기위치인식은 필수적인 요소이며 카메라 비젼시스템을 이용하여 처리 가능하다. 자기위치인식에서 비젼시스템은 넓은 시야를 확보하기 위해 어안렌즈를 이용하는데, 이는 영상의 왜곡을 발생한다. 또한 이동로봇은 지속적인 움직임을 가지므로 빠른 시간 내에 영상을 처리하여 자기위치를 인식해야 한다. 따라서 이동로봇에 적용 가능한 실용적인 영상왜곡 보정기법을 제안하고 실험을 통하여 성능을 검증한다.

Ubiquitous computing which is called, the innovation of the 21st Century is a core technology of next generation. RFID technology is noticed, and physical distribution, home network, telematics, like industry automatization are developed by using various technique. Particulary, They use RFID technology for fashion and beauty industry, So, supplying network management, physical distribution management and warehouse management are investigated for the automatization. What we have investigated so far, a traceability system is made of ubiquitous sensor network for monitoring fashion and beauty industry environment. The proposed system using EPC network can provide information of industrial products traceability quickly and efficiently. Moreover, this system with RFID Technology gives intelligence of distribution and record. In this paper, We recommend the vision of Ubiquitous convergence of fashion and beauty industry.

The flow of technology is going to human-oriented direction, from the time when the computer was first invented, to now where new computing environment using mobile and global network are everywhere. On that technology flow, ubiquitous is being suggested as new paradigm of computing environment. Augmented Reality is one of ubiquitous technologies that provide the interactions between human and computer. By adding computer-generated information to real information and their interaction, user can get the improved and more knowledgeable information about real world. The purpose of this paper is to show the possibility of applying vision based augmented reality to maintenance of product system.

As pervasive computing technology, which aims to get linked to useful knowledge, information or services anytime, anywhere, using any devices and/or artifacts, is proliferating, desirable impacts on knowledge management systems are now available. The pervasive computing technology will potentially enable the knowledge management systems to realize individualization and socialization and ultimately increase the knowledge processing productivity. However, researchers who apply the pervasive computing methodologies to novel way of knowledge management have been very few. These result in unsatisfactory consideration of establishing pervasive knowledge management systems. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to cast the vision of pervasive knowledge management and search for a couple of possible research issues and possibilities. This paper suggests a framework of ubiDSS, an amended knowledge management system for the next generation deploying pervasive and autonomous knowledge acquisition capabilities of ubiquitous computing technologies. Also the CKAM, context-based knowledge acquisition module, is illustrated as a prototype of future knowledge management systems.

Ubiquitous computing is a vision of our future computing lifestyle in which computer systems seamlessly integrate into our everyday lives, providing services and information in anywhere and anytime fashion. Augmented reality (AR) can naturally complement ubiquitous computing by providing an intuitive and collaborative visualization and simulation interface to a three-dimensional information space embedded within physical reality. This paper presents a service framework and its applications for providing context-aware u-car maintenance services using augmented reality, which can support a rich set of ubiquitous services and collaboration. It realizes bi-augmentation between physical and virtual spaces using augmented reality. It also offers a context processing module to acquire, interpret and disseminate context information. In particular, the context processing module considers user's preferences and security profile for providing private and customer-oriented services. The prototype system has been implemented to support 3D animation, TTS (Text-to-Speech), augmented manual, annotation, and pre- and post-augmentation services in ubiquitous car service environments.
