This paper presents an effective method for detecting vehicles in front of the camera-assisted car during nighttime driving. The proposed method detects vehicles based on detecting vehicle headlights and taillights using techniques of image segmentation and clustering. First, in order to effectively extract spotlight of interest, a pre-signal-processing process based on camera lens filter and labeling method is applied on road-scene images. Second, to spatial clustering vehicle of detecting lamps, a grouping process use light tracking method and locating vehicle lighting patterns. For simulation, we are implemented through Da-vinci 7437 DSP board with visible light mono-camera and tested it in urban and rural roads. Through the test, classification performances are above 89% of precision rate and 94% of recall rate evaluated on real-time environment.

An embedded system is a computer system designed to perform one or a few dedicated functions often with real-time computing constraints. A traditional design process of embedded systems is the development of document-centric approach, and it is difficult to develop an embedded system efficiently because communication between teams or steps is not smooth. So the Model Based Design Process are applied to the development of embedded systems. This paper will compare the Model Based Design Process and the traditional design process, and introduce example of development of vehicle device applied the Model Based Design Process.

PI code searching method of RDS(Radio Data System) are unique method of maintain desired channel on moving machine like vehicle. Efficient and fast PI code search method are researching on the all of RDS related systems for both find more better channel before Original channel signal go to bad and find desired good signal quickly when get out of Weak signal Area. But Embedded system has limited environment like memory size, so It is very difficult to apply many well known PI code searching method. This thesis suggests simple and effective method of searching PI code, considering a Embedded System Environment.

Vision system is an object recognition system analyzing image information captured through camera. Vision system can be applied to various fields, and vehicle recognition is ole of them. There have been many proposals about algorithm of vehicle recognition. But have complex calculation processing. So they need long processing time and sometimes they make problems. In this research we suggested vehicle type recognition system using vision bpx based on embedded platform. As a result of testing this system achieves 100% rate of recognition at the optimal condition. But when condition is changed by lighting, noise and angle, rate of recognition is decreased as pattern score is lowered and recognition speed is slowed.

This paper introduces mathematical modelling and control algorithm of expendable mine disposal vehicle. This vehicle has two longitudinal thrusters, one vertical thruster and internal mass moving system which can control pitch rate. Also, the vehicle has an optical camera and forward looking sonar for underwater mine detection and classification. The vehicle is controlled via an optical cable connected with operating console on the mother ship. We describe the vehicle's 6DOF dynamic model and controller which can track the desired trajectory for the way-point tracking. These simulation results shows guidance and maneuvering performance which has other sensor data or not.

This paper presents a tracking system using images captured from a camera on a moving platform. A camera on an unmanned flying vehicle generally moves and shakes due to external factors such as wind and the ego-motion of the machine itself. This makes it difficult to track a target properly, and sometimes the target cannot be kept in view of the camera. To deal with this problem, we propose a new system for stable tracking of a target under such conditions. The tracking system includes target tracking and 3-axis camera motion compensation. At the same time, we consider the simulation of the motion of flying vehicles for efficient and safe testing. With 3-axis motion compensation, our experimental results show that robustness and stability are improved.

The cause of the majority of vehicle accidents is a safety issue due to the driver's inattention, such as drowsy driving. A forward collision warning system (FCWS) can significantly reduce the number and severity of accidents by detecting the risk of collision with vehicles in front and providing an advanced warning signal to the driver. This paper describes a low power embedded system based FCWS for safety. The algorithm computes time to collision (TTC) through detection, tracking, distance calculation for the vehicle ahead and current vehicle speed information with a single camera. Additionally, in order to operate in real time even in a low-performance embedded system, an optimization technique in the program with high and low levels will be introduced. The system has been tested through the driving video of the vehicle in the embedded system. As a result of using the optimization technique, the execution time was about 170 times faster than that when using the previous non-optimized process.

In this paper, the transfer function to the vehicle is derived from using system identification algorithm in connection with the driving vehicle. We design the adaptive cruise controller using the derived transfer function, and make it possible to monitoring and control the vehicle in real time using embedded system and technology of Internet.

In This paper the embedded linux based embedded control system was used and the tracking antenna system was studied for data link and communication between moving vehicles. A microprocessor based embedded controller is equipped with SA-1110 board and this embedded controller can control the azimuth and the elevation angle of the antenna. The relative position and attitude for pointing are calculated by using the GPS position signals from the moving vehicle. To verify the performance of the designed embedded antenna system, the orbit information of the Arirang satellite(from KARI) is used.

An operating information and fault recode of train is very important information for safety driving and maintenance. And these information is increased and need high speed as the number of trains is increased. Wireless LAN or CDMA network is efficient to report more complicated and various information from vehicle to server in control center. Existing wireless transmission system has weakness due to transmission system is separated with TDCS and standalone. At first, standalone system needs space to be installed and cost is increased. And data transmission capacity and speed is limited by complicated structure that transmission system receive data thru serial communication like RS232 and then data transmission system send data to server in control center. This article is study to develop embedded & wireless fault code transmission device to be installed in TDCS to overcome weakness of space and to have more cost effective and simple structure. It is adapted 802.11b/g WiFi for wireless communication and OS is used embedded Linux that can easily implement wireless communication environment and ensure TCP/IP communication’s security. We also implement simple server to test wireless communication between embedded & wireless fault code transmission device and server in control center.
