Current digital door lock systems are mainly designed for users' convenience, so they have weakness in security. Thus, this paper suggests a video digital doorlock system grouped with a relay device, a server, and a digital doorlock with a camera, sensors, and communication modules, which is detecting or recognizing objects approaching to the front of the door lock system and sending images and door-opening information to users' smart devices. Experiments showed that the suggested system has 96~98% recognition rate of approaching objects and requires 17.1~23.9 seconds for transmission on average, depending on network systems. Therefore, the system is thought to have enough capability for real time security response by monitoring the front area of the doorlock system.

Recently, polymer insulators that are used for high voltage applications have some advantages such as light weight, small size, vandalism resistance, hydrophobicity and easy making process. During outdoor service of polymer insulators, the surface of the insulating material is frequently subjected to moisture and contamination that lead to dry band arcing. Their tracking resistance, erosion resistance, end sealing and shed design are very important because dry band arcing causes degradation of polymer surface. Aging test to estimate life property of polymer insulator is executed through several international standard such as IEC 61109 and CEA tracking wheel test, but is not getting clear conclusion yet. There are two methods in the diagnosis method of polymer insulator such as off-line and on-line. The diagnosis methods in off-line are external condition analysis by the eye, contaminant analysis on surface, surface analysis, pollution withstand voltage test, power frequency flashover voltage test, lightning impulse flashover test, tensile fracture load test and flexural load test. Polymer material is also investigated it's tracking resistance by adding surface active agent in IEC 587. In this paper, the tracking performance of polymer insulator with salt solution which is added surface active agent. The diagnosis of insulator sample has been analyzed by leakage current and visual examination, STRI guide and thermal image camera.

In this study, a crab robot is implemented in H/W based on four-bar linkage mechanism and Jansen mechanism, and its kinematics is analysed. A vision camera is attached to the mechanism, which makes the proposed robot a kind of biologically inspired robot for image acquisition. Three ultrasonic sensors are adopted for obstacle avoidance. In addition, the biologically inspired robot can achieve the mission appointed by a programmer outside, based on RF and Blue-tooth communication module. For the design and implementation of a crab robot, it is need to get joint variable, a foot point, and their relation. Thus, the proposed kinematic analysis is very important process for the design and implementation of legged robots.

Recently, the fields such as internet banking and electronic commerce are more and more growing due to the growth of practical use of personal computer and the progress of communication technology, So importance of information security has been increased. In fact, traditional identification systems are inherently insecure because the personal identification information can be forgotten, stolen or lost. In this paper, we propose an identification system that can decide whether the user is registered based on iris information using a mouse. The proposed system is mounted a CCD camera and an illumination device on general type mouse. Then it decides whether the user is registered after the acquired image are processed and analyzed. This system gives a PC user the advantage of low-cost and convenience without necessity preparing high-cost equipment for biometrics when using a identification system.

This paper describes research of using area of artificial mark on vision based head tracker system. A head tracker system consists of the translational and rotational motions which are detected by web camera. Results of the motion are taken from image processing and neural network. Because of the characteristics of cockpit, the specific color on the helmet is tracked for translational motion. And rotational motion is tracked via neural network. Ratio of two different colored area on the helmet is used as input of network. Neural network algorithms used, such as back-propagation and RBFN (Radial Basis Function Network). Both back-propagation using a characteristic of feedback and RBFN using a characteristic of statistics have a good performances for the tracking of nonlinear system such as a head motion. Finally, this paper analyzes and compares with tracking performance.

The main objective of thermal design for a space-borne FPA(Focal Plane Assembly) is to provide stable thermal environment during imaging operation and thus maintain the image quality. An FPA must be maintained within its operating temperature range and cooled down to its initial temperature soon enough for the next imaging operation. This paper describes the study result on performing trade-off studies for FPA thermal design by using simplified thermal node analysis about FPA preliminary design. It also describes the verification results of the study by comparing thermal analysis results and trade-off study results. According to results, we can conclude that this approach is useful for simple and quick trade-off studies without thermal analysis based on thermal math models.

Treatment for the brain tumors consist of surgery, chemotherapy, and a variety of methods of irradiation. Therapy is aimed to destroy the tumor, but necrosis and edema occur concurrently. Conventional structural imaging techniques such as CT or MRI are unable to reliably distinguish persistent and recurrent tumor from necrosis or edema. T1-201 has been shown to be useful in the evaluation of the myocardial viability by comparing the early uptake and redistribution image. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical usefulness of the early uptake and delayed washout images of the T1-201 brain SPECT in the brain tumors. In the pathologically diagnosed various brain tumor patients, brain SPECT was done with rotating gamma camera 15 minutes and 3 hours after T1-201 injection, and the T1-201 uptake in the tumor was compared with the skull and scalp activity. In the glioblastoma multiforme, meningioma and metastatic tumor, the T1-201 uptake was higher than low grade glioma in both 15 minute and 3 hour images (p<0.02). In the low grade glioma,3 hour T1-201 uptake was significantly lower than 15 minute uptake (p<0.05) but in the glioblastoma, meningioma and metastatic tumor there was no significant difference. There was no significant difference in the T1-201 uptake among the glioblastoma, meningioma and metastatic tumors. In one matastatic tumor, T1-201 uptake was decreased after radiation therapy. T1-201 brain SPECT could distinguish the benign and malignancy, and seems to be useful in the follow-up after treatment. But one of the early or delayed SPECT seems not to be necessary for these purposes.

With the emergence of laser mapping systems, higher resolution DTM of urban area can be acquired and can be used to generate precise orthoimage. But, when the conventional orthoimage generation methods are applied to the area containing features with height difference such as cliffs, bridges, banks. elevated highways and buildings, they cause problems such as occlusion and double mapping. Therefore, this study proposes a new algorithm by modifying and refining conventional orthoimage generation methods. With this algorithm, areas which have occlusion are detected from the base image using camera orientation parameters and DTM. Also, detected areas are restored using alternative images which does not have occlusion in that area. This study can be distinguished from the other studies in the aspects that the proposed algorithm in this paper doesn't need information on building and that uses DTM data and orientation parameters.

This paper propose color assessment method using HSI model to evaluate quantitative quality of mosaic images by aerial digital frame camera. Firstly, we convert RGB color into HSI model and we extract six pixel information of S and I corresponding to H from adjacency image by using HSI model. Secondly, a method to measure similarity and contrast is proposed and performed for assesment of observation regarding adjacency images. Through these procedure, we could generate four parameters. We could observe that both of the evaluation results by proposed method and the evaluation results by visual were almost similar. This facts support that our method based on several formula can be an objective method to evaluate a quality of mosaic images itself.

It is said that robot can be used for multi-purpose use by changing end effector or/and visual sensor with its software. In this study, it was investigated what multi-purpose robot for fruit-production was using a tomato harvesting robot and a robot to work in vineyard. Tomato harvesting robot consisted of manipulator, end-effector, visual sensor and traveling device. Plant training system of larger size tomato is similar with that of cherry-tomato. Two end-effectors were prepared for larger size tomato and cherry-tomato fruit harvesting operations, while the res components were not changed for the different work objects. A color TV camera could be used for the both work objects, however fruit detecting algorithm and extracted features from image should be changed. As for the grape-robot , several end-effector for harvesting , berry thinning , bagging and spraying were developed and experimented after attaching each end-effector to manipulator end. The manipulator was a polar coordinate type and had five degrees of freedom so that it could have enough working space for the operations. It was observed that visual sensor was necessary for harvesting, bagging and berry-thinning operations and that spraying operation requires another sensor for keeping certain distance between trellis and end-effector. From the experimental results, it was considered that multi-operations by the same robot could be appropriately done on the same or similar plant training system changing some robot components . One of the important results on having function of multi-operation was to be able to make working period of the robot longer.
