Mobile devices are becoming increasingly sophisticated and the latest generation of smartphones now incorporates many diverse and powerful sensors. These sensors include acceleration sensor, magnetic field sensor, light sensor, proximity sensor, gyroscope sensor, pressure sensor, rotation vector sensor, gravity sensor and orientation sensor. The availability of these sensors in mass-marketed communication devices creates exciting new opportunities for data mining and data mining applications. In this paper, we describe and evaluate a system that uses phone-based accelerometers to perform activity recognition, a task which involves identifying the physical activity that a user is performing. To implement our system, we collected labeled accelerometer data from 10 users as they performed daily activities such as "phone detached", "idle", "walking", "running", and "jumping", and then aggregated this time series data into examples that summarize the user activity 5-minute intervals. We then used the resulting training data to induce a predictive model for activity recognition. This work is significant because the activity recognition model permits us to gain useful knowledge about the habits of millions of users-just by having them carry cell phones in their pockets.

Ultrasonic sensor is used widely for many applications because low cost, simple structure, and low restriction. There are many difficulties to recognize an object by use an ultrasonic sensor, because of low resolution, poor direction, and measurement error. To improve the these problem, we use the various kinds of sensor arrangement methods, large amount of sensor, and change the arrangement pattern of sensor. In this paper, to obtain the most basic parameters for pattern recognition such as distance, dimension of the object, an angle of the object, we get the improved results by use the intelligent calculation algorithm based on Neuro-Fuzzy. This method use the multifarious output voltage of ultrasonic sensor by simple electronic circuit.

In this study, we developed a falling recognition system to transmit SMS data through CDMA communication using a three axises acceleration sensor and a two axises gyro sensor. 5 healthy men were selected into a control group, and the fall recognition system using the three axises acceleration sensor and the two axises gyro sensor was devised to conduct an experiment. The system was attached to the upper of their sternum. According to the experiment protocol, the experiment was carried out 3 times repeatedly divided into 3 specific protocols: falling during gait, falling in stopped state, and falling in everyday life. Data obtained in the falling recognition system and LabVIEW 8.5 were used to decide if falling corresponds to that regulated in an analysis program applying an algorithm proposed in this study. In addition, results from falling recognition were transmitted to designated cellular phone in a SMS (Shot Message Service) form. These research results show that an erroneous detection rate of falling reached 19% in applying an acceleration signal only; 6% in applying an angular velocity; and 2% in applying a proposed algorithm. Such finding suggests that an erroneous detection rate of falling is improved when the proposed algorithm is applied incorporated with acceleration and angular velocity. In this study therefore, we proposed that a falling recognition system implemented in this study can make a contribution to the recognition of falling of the aged or the disabled.

This paper presents a sensor fusion method to recognize a cylindrical object a CCD camera, a laser slit beam and ultrasonic sensors on a pan/tilt device. For object recognition with a vision sensor, an active light source projects a stripe pattern of light on the object surface. The 2D image data are transformed into 3D data using the geometry between the camera and the laser slit beam. The ultrasonic sensor uses an ultrasonic transducer array mounted in horizontal direction on the pan/tilt device. The time of flight is estimated by finding the maximum correlation between the received ultrasonic pulse and a set of stored templates - also called a matched filter. The distance of flight is calculated by simply multiplying the time of flight by the speed of sound and the maximum amplitude of the filtered signal is used to determine the face angle to the object. To determine the position and the radius of cylindrical objects, we use a statistical sensor fusion. Experimental results show that the fused data increase the reliability for the object recognition.

This paper deals with the sensing ability of the smart sensor that has the sensing ability to distinguish materials according to the input condition changing. This is a study of dynamic characteristics of sensor. We have developed a new signal processing method that can distinguish among different materials. The smart sensor was developed for recognition of materials. Experiments and analysis were executed to estimate ability to recognize objects according to the input condition. First, we developed the advanced smart sensor. Second, we developed the new method, which has the capability sensing of different materials. Dynamic characteristics of the smart sensor were evaluated relatively through a new $R_{SAI}$ method. According to frequency changing, influence of the smart sensor are evaluated through a new recognition index ($R_{SAI}$) that ratio of sensing ability index. Applications of this method are for finding abnormal conditions of objects (auto-manufacturing), feeling of objects (medical product), robotics, safely diagnosis of structure, etc.

This paper presents a multiple vehicle recognition algorithm based on radar and vision sensor fusion for lane change assistance. To determine whether the lane change is possible, it is necessary to recognize not only a primary vehicle which is located in-lane, but also other adjacent vehicles in the left and/or right lanes. With the given sensor configuration, two challenging problems are considered. One is that the guardrail detected by the front radar might be recognized as a left or right vehicle due to its genetic characteristics. This problem can be solved by a guardrail recognition algorithm based on motion and shape attributes. The other problem is that the recognition of rear vehicles in the left or right lanes might be wrong, especially on curved roads due to the low accuracy of the lateral position measured by rear radars, as well as due to a lack of knowledge of road curvature in the backward direction. In order to solve this problem, it is proposed that the road curvature measured by the front vision sensor is used to derive the road curvature toward the rear direction. Finally, the proposed algorithm for multiple vehicle recognition is validated via field test data on real roads.

A sensor fusion scheme for mobile robot environment recognition that incorporates range data and contour data is proposed. Ultrasonic sensor provides coarse spatial description but guarantees open space with no obstacle within sonic cone with relatively high belief. Laser structured light system provides detailed contour description of environment but prone to light noise and is easily affected by surface reflectivity. Overall fusion process is composed of two stages: Noise elimination and belief updates. Dempster Shafer´s evidential reasoning is applied at each stage. Open space estimation from sonar range measurements brings elimination of noisy lines from laser sensor. Comparing actual sonar data to the simulated sonar data enables ...

Recently, it is one of very interest technology of Human Computer Interaction(HCI). Nowadays, it is easy to find out that, for example, inside SF movies people has talking to computer. However, there are difference between CPU language and ours. So, we focus on connecting to CPU. For 30 years many scientists experienced in that technology. But it is really difficult. Our project goal is making that CPU could understand human voice. First of all the signal through a voice sensor will move to BCD (binary code). That elevator helps out people who wants to move up and down. This product's point is related with people's safety. Using a PWM for motor control by ATmega16, we choose a DC motor to drive it because of making a regular speed elevator. Furthermore, using a voice identification module the elevator driven by voice sensor could operate well up and down perfectly from 1st to 10th floor by PWM control with ATmega16. And, it will be clearly useful for high-rise vertical shift with voice recognition sensor driven.
