The final step of driving a car is parking, which is the most difficult part for people learning to drive. Parking in narrow parking spaces is difficult for both ordinary drivers and beginners. To solve this problem, the development of SPAS (Smart Parking Assist System), ACC (Automatic Control System) improves the convenience of drivers. In addition, parking assistance systems have been developed to recognize more accurately the surrounding environment to the driver using the ultrasound, camera, thermal camera, and radar. This paper proposes the reverse turning radius to process images as if the camera is located in the center of the vehicle regardless of the actual camera position. In addition, it generates the parking guidelines through verification using the vehicle.

This paper proposes a method utilizing Differential Global Position System (DGPS) with Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) and pre-built Geo-graphic Information System (GIS) to detect lane departure of a vehicle. The position of a vehicle measured by DGPS with RTK has 18 cm-level accuracy. The preconditioned GIS data giving accurate position information of the traffic lanes is used to set up coordinate system and to enable fast calculation of the relative position of the vehicle within the traffic lanes. This relative position can be used for safe driving by preventing the vehicle from departing lane carelessly. The proposed system can be a key component in functions such as vehicle guidance, driver alert and assistance, and the smart highway that eventually enables autonomous driving supporting system. Experimental results show the ability of the system to meet the accuracy and robustness to detect lane departure of a vehicle at high speed.

In the 21st century, in which the accident rate is rapidly increasing in proportion to the development of automobiles, In order to reduce the number of accidents, this paper was written for the convenience of the elderly people with disabilities and the handicapped. When a driver's safety accidents and various signals are transmitted through a smart phone by voice, the voice signal is processed as a video signal through the rear LED pannel of the vehicle, so that an urgent situation or a current state can be clarified It is also possible to use the local area network as a billboard and I would like to propose a study to show the advertising effect and current traffic situation.

The Korea Convergence Society. Recently, as the 4th industrial revolution is rising, there are many changes in various field of industries. Among these industries, autonomous vehicles based on artificial intelligence, big data and internet of things is one of the most promising industry. Autonomous vehicle stray from classical car domain of manufacturers and suppliers, IT/Electronics suppliers and communication companies are widen their business area to autonomous vehicle technology. In this paper, we analysis the state of art of autonomous vehicle technology and development direction of industries/research institute. Finally, we discuss the social/economic effects of autonomous vehicle.

Emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Advanced Driver Assistant System (ADAS) often have image transmission functions with tough constraints, like low power and/or low delay, which require that they adopt line-based, low memory compression methods instead of existing frame-based image compression standards. Bit rate control in the conventional frame-based compression systems requires a lot of hardware resources when the scope of handled data falls at the frame level. On the other hand, attempts to reduce the heavy hardware resource requirement by focusing on line-level processing yield uneven image quality through the frame. In this paper, we propose a bit rate control that maintains consistency in image quality through the frame and improves the legibility of text regions. To find the line characteristics, the proposed bit rate control tests each line for ease of compression and the existence of text. Experiments on the proposed bit rate control show peak signal-to-noise ratios (PSNRs) similar to those of conventional bit rate controls, but with the use of significantly fewer hardware resources.

최근 IT 기업들이 자동차에 IT도입에 열을 올리고 있으며, 그 중에서도 미터 클러스터는 운전자의 편의성을 고려하여 많은 연구와 관심이 증대되고 있다. 자동차 계기판은 전자기기의 발전과 더불어 아날로그 계기판, 디지털 계기판, 이 둘을 함께 사용한 하이브리드 계기판, 그리고 보다 상세한 정보를 이미지와 함께 제공해 주는 스마트 하이브리드 계기판으로 발전하고 있다. 기존의 미터 클러스터는 단순히 차량의 제한된 정보를 표시하며, 운전자의 운전 상태에 따른 시인성이 부족하며, 차량의 상태, 그리고 운행지역의 주변 환경적 정보의 부족으로 인해 운전자의 안정성이 고려되지 못한 부분이 많아 운전자의 안전 운전에 도움이 되지 못하는 부분이 많다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 차량의 상태, 운행 환경정보 등의 통합 된 정보를 LCD 디스플레이 기반에서 운전자의 시인성과 안정성 우선으로 하는 레이아웃을 연구하고자 한다.

Recently, the safety in vehicle also has become a hot topic as self-driving car is developed. In passive safety systems such as airbags and seat belts, the system is being changed into an active system that actively grasps the status and behavior of the passengers including the driver to mitigate the risk. Furthermore, it is expected that it will be possible to provide customized services such as seat deformation, air conditioning operation and D.W.D (Distraction While Driving) warning suitable for the passenger by using occupant information. In this paper, we propose robust vehicle occupant detection algorithm based on RGB-Depth-Thermal camera for obtaining the passengers information. The RGB-Depth-Thermal camera sensor system was configured to be robust against various environment. Also, one of the deep learning algorithms, OpenPose, was used for occupant detection. This algorithm is advantageous not only for RGB image but also for thermal image even using existing learned model. The algorithm will be supplemented to acquire high level information such as passenger attitude detection and face recognition mentioned in the introduction and provide customized active convenience service.

This paper describes a hardware-oriented algorithm and its conceptual implementation in a real-time speed limit traffic sign detection system on an automotive-oriented field-programmable gate array (FPGA). It solves the training and color dependence problems found in other research, which saw reduced recognition accuracy under unlearned conditions when color has changed. The algorithm is applicable to various platforms, such as color or grayscale cameras, high-resolution (4K) or low-resolution (VGA) cameras, and high-end or low-end FPGAs. It is also robust under various conditions, such as daytime, night time, and on rainy nights, and is adaptable to various countries' speed limit traffic sign systems. The speed limit traffic sign candidates on each grayscale video frame are detected through two simple computational stages using global luminosity and local pixel direction. Pipeline implementation using results-sharing on overlap, application of a RAM-based shift register, and optimization of scan window sizes results in a small but high-performance implementation. The proposed system matches the processing speed requirement for a 60 fps system. The speed limit traffic sign recognition system achieves better than 98% accuracy in detection and recognition, even under difficult conditions such as rainy nights, and is implementable on the low-end, low-cost Xilinx Zynq automotive Z7020 FPGA.

We categorize the model of simple payment into Magnetic Secure Transmission, Near Filed Communication, and App Card based on the Focus Group Interview. We also define the key drivers for the diffusion of simple payment services based on the literature review with the experts. Through Analytic Hierarchy Process our finding suggests that the degree of acceptance at the stores is the most critical factor which decides the diffusion of simple payment service model. Security is also the important driver but due to the fact that service providers should follow the information security rule and supervisory guidance, it actually did not make a big difference in terms of assessing competence of each model.
