This paper presents a novel pose description corresponding to the structure characteristics of parallel manipulators, which is convenient and intuitionistic to us. A class of 3-RSR parallel manipulator is considered here. Through analysis on geometry theory, we obtain a new method of the closed-form solution to the forward kinematics. The closed-form solution contains two different meanings-analytical and real-time. So we reach the goal of practical application and control. A numerical example is also presented and are verified by an inverse kinematics analysis. It shows that the method has a practical value for real-time control.

We have reported the convenient biomimetic methodology for the synthesis of all kinds of substituent pattern benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids (Hanaoka et al., 1990; Hanaoka et al., 1991). Regioselective demethylation of C-8 position on oxyfagaridine (5), an intermediate for the synthesis of Fagaridine (4), would afford the precursor for the synthesis of Isofagaridine because the strong hydrogen bonding between amide and hydroxyl group of C-7 position probably resists to be reacted with week base and electrophiles. Thus, a selective alkylation of dihydroxy compound supposed to be possible and be lead to the target compound, Isofagaridine.

The demand for user convenient devices in automotive applications are fast growing, mainly driven by the customer's requirement for higher efficiency and more features. In important such feature is the cold module for cars, which are convenient luxuries that warm or cool drinks placed in the cup holder by means of a thermoelectric element. In present study, we would like to find out the optimal thickness of the cup holder and mounting position of the thermoelectric element through experiments under various testing conditions and thermal analysis. The resulting thermal distribution of the primary area of thermal analysis was found to be lowest when the thickness was 2.5 mm. The temperature distribution was also lowest when the thermal element was positioned underneath the holder (A-type).

Coordinate estimation is an essential function for autonomous navigation of a mobile robot. The optical mouse sensor is convenient and cost-effective for the coordinate estimation problem. It is possible to overcome the position estimation error caused by the slip and the model mismatch of robot's motion equation using the optical mouse sensor. One of the simple methods for the position estimation using the optical mouse sensor is integration of the velocity data from the sensor with time. However, the unavoidable noise in the sensor data may deteriorate the position estimation in case of the simple integration method. In general, a mobile robot has ready-to-use motion information from the encoder sensors of driving motors. By combining the velocity data from the optical mouse sensor and the motion information of a mobile robot, it is possible to improve the coordinate estimation performance. In this paper, a coordinate estimation algorithm for an autonomous mobile robot is presented based on the well-known Kalman filter that is useful to combine the different types of sensors. Computer simulation results show the performance of the proposed localization algorithm for several types of trajectories in comparison with the simple integration method.

The need for position information in indoor environments has been growing lately. Several indoor navigation systems have been studied. Among them, pseudolite-based indoor positioning systems are one of the best systems to obtain precise position measurements. However, the installation of such systems is very difficult because the calibration of pseudolite antenna position is complicated. For precise calibration, the use of carrier phase measurements is necessary, and whenever carrier phase measurements are considered, problems with cycle ambiguity appear. In this paper, a new approach to calibrate the positions of pseudolite antennas is proposed. By using a multi-antenna, the ambiguity can be eliminated, epoch by epoch, for every single carrier phase measurement. Moreover, the number of calibration points can be reduced down to 3 by use of measurements collected at unknown positions. Using the proposed methods, the process of the collection of carrier phase measurements becomes considerably simple and convenient. Simulation results are presented to verify the proposed algorithms.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare visiting intentions by positive and negative Word-of-Mouth (WOM) and/or information of beauty shop between female college students and adult women. Data were collected from 500 consumers (250 from female students and 250 adult women) and was analyzed by using frequencies, factor analysis, t-tests and multiple regression utilizing SPSS/PC+. The findings revealed positive experience factors to prudent service, time saving/consideration for customer's position, kindness/operating system in waiting time, added services, employees' attitudes, excellent beauty and response skill, rational price and recall system/remind for customer. The negative experiences were inconsistent service, operators' convenient service, irrational price/poor skill/non-recall, non-customer central service, inappropriate face-to-face management to customer. Also, the results showed that the positive WOM information such as prudent service, time saving/consideration for customer's position, excellent beauty and response skill and rational price had influence on the visiting intention in case of female college students. The negative WOM information like non-customer central service, had influence on the visiting intention in cases of adult women.

These days many systems use the gps signal to get their own position. Because it's cheap and accurate and convenient. But, the strength of gps signal is very weak and can be easily interrupted by GPS jamming and GPS spoofing. Normally, fighter can use DME, TACAN, etc to correct their position error when GPS is not working. But, many aircraft which does not have those kinds of hardware need to pay additional cost to get it. In this paper, we propose how to overcome GPS jamming and GPS spoofing by only using data link system. The main purpose of this paper is to make the data link protocol to get an exact position information of own unit at gps error environment.

In this paper, a system of durability test for ATPS(Automatic Transmission Position Switch), which is used for automatic transmission, has been developed. ATPS is the position sensor for an automatic transmission which transforms the gear changes into the electrical signals and transmits them to TCU(Transmission Control Unit). This system can detect the output signals of the sensor, and also it has been designed to control the position and velocity of a motor to realize the sensor's movement under the running state of a car. And a database system and a GUI system have been developed for the systematic output data management and the convenient interface for users. Also, the operation data and the inspection reference data of a motor can be easily changed in this system, and with some modification the system is also able to used for the durability test of the similar products.

Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS) is a convenient system that acquires position and time information of a receiver if only satellite signals can be received anywhere in the world. However navigation signals include errors and a position error occurs according to the reception state of the signal. Also, a position error is affected by the geometric arrangement of the satellites. Therefore a receiver position performance varies by the number and status of visible satellites The condition of satellite signals is not good when the satellite rises or sets and the position change of receiver occurs when the signal is blocked by an obstacle such as a building in the urban area. In this paper, we proposed methods to improve the GNSS performance by using pseudorange correction method estimating the correction amount and the visible satellites selection method. By applying the proposed methods to an environment in which the number of visible satellites changes variously, the performance enhancement was verified.

In this paper, we propose a virtual violin implementation using the detection of bowing and finger dropping position from the estimated finger tip and finger board information with the 3D image data from a Kinect. Violin finger board pattern and depth information are extracted from the color image and depth image to detect the touch event on the violin finger board and to identify the touched position. Final decision of activated musical alphabet is carried out with the finger drop position and bowing information. Our virtual violin uses PC MIDI to output synthesized violin sound. The experimental results showed that the proposed method can detect finger drop position and bowing detection with high accuracy. Virtual violin can be utilized for the easy and convenient interface for a beginner to learn playing violin with the PC-based learning software.
