  • In this paper, path generation using the sensor platform is proposed. The sensor platform is composed two electric motors which make panning and tilting motions. An algorithm fur a real path form and an obstacle length is realized using a scanning algorithm to rotating the sensors on the sensor platform. An ARV (Autonomous Robot Vehicle) is able to recognize the given path by adapting this algorithm. In order for the ARV to navigate the path flexibly, a kinematic model needed to be constructed. The kinematic model of the ARV was reformed around its body center through a relative velocity relationship to controllability, which derives from the nonholonomic characteristics. The optimal controller that is based on tile kinematic model is operated purposefully to track a reference vehicle's path. The path generation algorithm is composed of two parks. On e part is the generating path pattern, and the other is used to avoid an obstacle. The optimal controller is used for tracking the reference path which is generated by recognizing the path pattern. Results of simulation show that this algorithm for an ARV is sufficient for path generation by small number of sensors and for low cost controller.

  • This paper studies how to combine devices such as monocular/stereo cameras, motors for panning/tilting, fisheye lens and convex mirrors, in order to solve vision-based robotic problems. To overcome the well-known trade-offs between optical properties, we present two mixed versions of the new systems. The first system is the robot photographer with a conventional pan/tilt perspective camera and fisheye lens. The second system is the omnidirectional detector for a complete 360-degree field-of-view surveillance system. We build an original device that combines a stereo-catadioptric camera and a pan/tilt stereo-perspective camera, and also apply it in the real environment. Compared to the previous systems, we show benefits of two proposed systems in aspects of maintaining both high-speed and high resolution with collaborative moving cameras and having enormous search space with hybrid configuration. The experimental results are provided to show the effectiveness of the mixing collaborative and hybrid systems.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors contributing to intentions of quitting smoking, and use of smoking cessation services for daily smokers, and willingness of using smoking cessation services by the public health centers. Method: A total of 1,403 cases of male smokers were collected by a telephone survey. The age of smokers in the study ranged from 20 to 59. Socio-demographic variables, cigarette consumption behaviors, quit attempts and intentions of quitting smoking, and use of clinical services provided by the local public health centers were analysed using SPSS program. Result: About 77.8% of the smokers consumed a pack of cigarettes or less per day. About 20% of the smokers have used quit aides such as nicotine patch, gum, quit cigarettes, and acupuncture. These variables were associated with prior quit attempts in the past 1 year. Older age, degree of addiction(less time spent without smoking after a smoker gets up in the morning), prior quit attempts, panning to quit in one month, doctor's advice to quit were the major predictors of using the smoking cessation services provided by the public health centers. Conclusion: Health educators have to entice physicians to give smoking cessation advice to smokers, and have to provide many different types of educational programs to help quitting smoking.

  • Many of facial feature extracting applications and systems have been developed in the field of face recognition systems and its application, and most of them use the eyes as a key-feature of human face. In this paper we show a simple and fast eye detection algorithm for embedded systems. The eyes are very important facial features because of the attribution they have. For example, we know the darkest regions in a face are the pair of pupils, and the eyes are always a pair and parallel. Using such attributors, our algorithm works well under various light conditions, size of face in image, and various pose such as panning and tilting. The main keys to develop this algorithm are the eyes' attribution that we can usually contemplate and easily find when we think about what is the attribution that the eyes have. With some constraints of the eyes and knowledge of the anthropometric human face, we detect human eye in an image, and the experimental results demonstrate successful eye detection.

  • Background: The heat shock proteins (HSPs) play an important role in cellular protection mechanisms against physical or chemical stresses. In this study scFv antibodies specific for human HSP70.1 were isolated from a semi-synthetic human scFv library with the ultimate goal of developing anti-HSP70.1 intracellular antibody (intrabody) that may offer an attractive alternative to gene targeting to study the function of the protein in cells. Methods: A semi-synthetic human scFv display library ($5{\times}10^{8}$ size) was constructed using pCANTAB-5E vector and the selection of the library against bacterially expressed recombinant human HSP70.1 was attempted by panning. Results: Three positive clones specific for recombinant HSP70.1 were identified. All three clones used $V_{H}$ subgroup III. On the other hand, $V_{L}$ of two clones belonged to the kappa light chain subgroup I, but the other utilized $V_{k}$ subgroup IV Interestingly, these scFv molecules specifically reacted to the recombinant HSP70.1, yet failed to recognize native HSP70 induced in U937 human monocytic cells by heat treatment. Conclusion: Our results indicated that affinity selection of an scFv phage display library using recombinant antigens produced in E. coli might not guarantee the isolation of scFv antibody molecules specific for a native form of the antigen. Therefore, the source of target antigens needs to be chosen carefully in order to isolate biofunctional antibody molecules.

  • This study shows a control strategy that acquires both precision and manipulation sensitivity of remote center motion with manual traction for a surgical assistant robot. Remote center motion is an essential function of a laparoscopic surgical robot. The robot has to keep the position of the insertion port in a three-dimensional space, and general laparoscopic surgery needs 4-DoF (degree-of-freedom) motions such as pan, tilt, spin, and forward/backward. The proposed robot consists of a 6-axis collaborative robot and a 2-DoF end-effector. A 6-axis collaborative robot performs the cone-shaped trajectory with pan and tilt motion of an end-effector maintaining the position of remote center. An end-effector deals with the remaining 2-DoF movement. The most intuitive way a surgeon manipulates a robot is through direct teaching. Since the accuracy of maintaining the remote center position is important, direct teaching is implemented based on position control in this study. A force/torque sensor which is attached to between robot and end-effector estimates the surgeon's intention and generates the command of motion. The predefined remote center position and the pan and tilt angles generated from direct teaching are input as a command for position control. The command generation algorithm determines the direct teaching sensitivity. Required torque for direct teaching and accuracy of remote center motion are analyzed by experiments of panning and tilting motion.

  • The data structure of the concentric mosaic can be regarded as a video sequence with a slowly panning camera. We take a concentric mosaic with match or alignment of video sequences. Also the concentric mosaic required for huge memory. Thus, compressing is essential in order to use the concentric mosaic. Therefore we need the algorithm that compressed data structure was maintained and the scene was decoded. In this paper, we used 3D lifting transform to compress concentric mosaic. Lifting transform has a merit of wavelet transform and reduces computation quantities and memory. Because each frame has high correlation, the complexity which a scene is detected form 3D transformed bitstream is increased. Thus, in order to have higher performance and decrease the complexity of detecting of a scene we executed 3D lifting and then transformed data set was sequently compressed with each frame unit. Each frame has a flexible bit rate. Also, we proposed the algorithm that compressed data structure was maintained and the scene was decoded by using property of lifting structure.
