  • Recently, we have been demanding the comfort of the indoor environment due to environmental problems such as fine dust and yellow dust. In addition it is pursuing the most pleasant indoor environment for humans. In this study, we designed and implemented monitoring systems and mobile applications to enable information such as room temperature and humidity. Open source software and open source hardware are required to design and implement the systems proposed in this study. In this study, the systems implemented used a bluetooth module, a light sensor, and a temperature and humidity sensor. In the future, we expect to be a basic study of systems that can operate dehumidifiers, warm-air fans, fans and humidifiers using motors and optimize indoor environment.

  • IoT application development using a cloud server causes problems such as data transmission and reception delay, network traffic, and cost for real-time processing support in network connected hardware. To solve this problem, edge cloud-based platforms can use neuromorphic hardware to enable fast data transfer. In this paper, we propose a model optimization method for supporting spiking neural networks on FPGA hardware. We focused on auto-adjusting network model parameters optimized for neuromorphic hardware. The proposed method performs optimization to show higher performance based on user requirements for accuracy. As a result of performance analysis, it satisfies all requirements of accuracy and showed higher performance in terms of expected execution time, unlike the naive method supported by the existing open source framework.

  • RTEMS is a real-time operating system using a GPLv2-based license, and is used in the aerospace industry, such as satellites. It is difficult to build a development environment for these special-purpose systems because of problems related to the hardware platform. This can be resolved by applying virtualization technology. However, increased execution time and performance degradation due to virtualization overhead can change timing behavior of real-time application, and needs to be minimized. In this paper, we aim to implement the network device driver of RTEMS for the standardized virtual network device called virtio in order to effectively utilize RTEMS in a virtualized environment. In addition, we describe the process of submitting implemented driver to the RTEMS community for contributing open source software and reflecting the various requirements of the community.

  • Along with the development of ICT technology, wearable devices of various sizes and shapes have been developed. In addition, performance and specifications are rebuilt with IOT fusion products so that they can connect with the current smartphone. This is one of the general-purpose technologies of the 4th industrial revolution, which is spot-lighted with technology that changes the quality and environment of our lives. Along with this, as new technology products combining health care technology increases, various functions are provided to users who need it. Wearable technology is ongoing trend of technology development. It also sells products developed as products in the form of smart watches. At present, various related products are made in various ways, and it is recommended to use the Arduino processor in accordance with the application. In this study, we developed wearable physical activity monitoring system using open source hardware based TinyDuino.

  • Recently, there was an increasing demand for an integrated access control system which is capable of user recognition, door control, and facility operations control for smart buildings automation. The market available door lock access control solutions need to be improved from the current level security of door locks operations where security is compromised when a password or digital keys are exposed to the strangers. At present, the access control system solution providers focusing on developing an automatic access control system using (RF) based technologies like bluetooth, WiFi, etc. All the existing automatic door access control technologies required an additional hardware interface and always vulnerable security threads. This paper proposes the user identification and authentication solution for automatic door lock control operations using camera based visible light communication (VLC) technology. This proposed approach use the cameras installed in building facility, user smart devices and IoT open source controller based LED light sensors installed in buildings infrastructure. The building facility installed IoT LED light sensors transmit the authorized user and facility information color grid code and the smart device camera decode the user informations and verify with stored user information then indicate the authentication status to the user and send authentication acknowledgement to facility door lock integrated camera to control the door lock operations. The camera based VLC receiver uses the artificial intelligence (AI) methods to decode VLC data to improve the VLC performance. This paper implements the testbed model using IoT open-source based LED light sensor with CCTV camera and user smartphone devices. The experiment results are verified with custom made convolutional neural network (CNN) based AI techniques for VLC deciding method on smart devices and PC based CCTV monitoring solutions. The archived experiment results confirm that proposed door access control solution is effective and robust for automatic door access control.

  • As smart home network services such as home CCTV, outdoor control of home appliances, home security and disaster prevention services become popular, there appear various affiliated products including smart home gateway and smart speaker. Since those services are generally developed on the vendors' individual hardware and software platforms, it is not much expected for them to interwork well among different architecture and communication methods. In this paper, we propose a new home network service system running on an open source platform to address such issues. We implemented a home network system using OpenWRT-based wireless router(or access point) and Zigbee communication technology. In the proposed system, a wireless router replaces a commercial home gateway and small control units implemented with Arduino control electronic devices and sensors in home. Several service scenarios are also implemented to verify the operability of the proposed system.

  • We propose a method for the implementation of an EtherCAT communication bus in a Linux-based open source Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) system. Recently, increasingly more CNC systems support real-time Ethernet protocols such as EtherCAT, which is a high-performance industrial communication protocol. For real-time CNC control over an Ethernet-based protocol, an additional layer driver needs to be implemented between the CNC system and the master of industrial communication protocol. Among the various solutions for the connection layer driver, we employ a Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) driver based on Linux. The operation of the implemented CNC system is demonstrated and confirmed by Hal Meter, which is used to observe the pins, signals, or parameters of HAL.
