車輛滑動預防系統研究

近年來,未拉上手煞車所造成的傷害事故層出不窮,主要有兩個導因,一、車主已離車但未拉上手煞車;二、看見自己的車已經開始滑動,想用徒手力量阻擋。因為車輛的質量很大,往往沒有辦法阻止,反而造成了車主自身或周遭行人的傷亡。本設計主要功能是用於車輛滑動的預防。我們運用了加速規來感測地面的坡度,當車輛停放在斜坡,駕駛座上無人,且沒有拉起手煞車,本系統將會自動偵測,我們使用了OPA比較電路來判斷坡度是否達到我們預設的值,如果是,系統將會啟動警報器警告周圍的人,而且會自動將手煞車拉起,以防止車輛繼續下滑,這就是我們所發明的智慧手煞車的作動原理及基本的構想。我們希望藉由此設計,達到減少因未拉上手煞車而造成的事故,並且能藉由警報聲改正駕駛人習慣,減少傷亡提升車輛安全。

廉價取像設備之色彩校正

The applications of digital image are rapidly growing with the developments in computer technology. This enforces digital image industry to produce devices with better quality. Despite the today’s advanced level of technology, it is known that input and output devices somewhat cause color distortions. International Color Consortium suggests that we can use ICC profile to overcome the problem mentioned above. But the related hardwares and softwares are too expensive for the general users. In this study, we base on the ICC profile’s mechanism to develop a color calibration method for low cost image acquisitions. From the theoretical and experimental results, it can be demonstrated that our method appears satisfactory.數位影像的應用隨著電腦資訊科技的快速成長而蓬勃發展,這也促使著數位影像工業的相關產品漸漸地普及與廣泛地使用,時至今日,雖然有著很好的製造技術,但是任何數位影像設備均無法完美無失真地將原有的色彩呈現出來或紀錄下來,或多或少都有色彩偏差的存在,尤其在價格越低廉的設備上更為明顯。雖然可以依據國際色彩協會的建議,使用每項設備的專屬色彩描述檔來克服色差的缺點,但是用來產生色彩描述檔的相關軟硬體均價格昂貴,實非一般使用者所能承受的負擔,本篇研究以色彩描述檔的色彩轉換機制為基礎,發展出針對廉價取像設備的色彩校正程序,無論從理論數據上的探討以及實際影像上的測試看來,我們的校正方法確實有效,讓原有的色彩能精準地重現。

Universal computing sorting machine

The purpose of the study was to develop and create a semi-automatic multi-purpose sorting and counting machine of standard articles. Currently, there is a problem of equipping industrial enterprises as well as small trade companies and large retailers with computing sorting machines of standard products of a certain shape. We would like to fill this missing link up with a simple, compact and inexpensive device. Procedures The proposed research consisted of a consistent design of a virtual model of the device and its electronic-mechanical implementation. The virtual model is simulated by a computer program "SolidWorks" object, which graphically shows the operation of the future device. In the development of the computing sorting device standard electronic devices and their associated software have been used. The created simplified real model demonstrates the basic principles and characteristics of the proposed device. Data As an example for the implementation of the concept device a computing device for sorting coins, in circulation in Russia has been created. As a basic principle of sorting objects by their geometric and weight characteristics were used. It is important that the device is focused on the correct form of the objects of sorting (balls, rings, coins, regular polyhedrons, screws, nuts, etc). To confirm the effectiveness of the computing device of this type of sorting, a series of tests of counting of objects manually have been carried out . The effectiveness of the device is determined by comparing the time characteristics of manual and automatic sorting. Findings and conclusions As a result of research and work performed, we have concluded that: 1) The proposed device can be used in various industries. (for example, while sorting ball bearings.) 2) Such a computing sorting device may find it's application in various commercial enterprises: to assist cashiers in retail ATMs. 3) Can be used in payment terminals. 4) 4) After a certain modernization of the device it can be used for money encashment.

Equipping, programming and testing a robot searching for an avalanche transceiver

1. Purpose of the research Because we live in a famous winter sport region in Switzerland, we have been confronted with the problematic of avalanches since we were born. In winter 2011/2012 alone, 179 people were involved in an avalanche accident, of whom 25 died. The most important device for searching and rescuing a buried person is the avalanche transceiver. It creates an electromagnetic field, which can be used to locate a buried person with another transceiver. The most important factor while searching is time: After 30 min. the chance of survival of a buried person has dropped to 40%. Considering the fact that people often make mistakes when they are put under such a big stress, valuable time gets lost. This is where our project comes into play. With an automation of the searching process a fast and reliable search should be achieved. The aim we agreed on for this paper is to develop a prototype of a robot that can find an avalanche transceiver automatically and reliably. To study and optimize the functionality of our robot more easily, our tests have only been performed on flat ground. 2. Procedures The components of an avalanche transceiver with only one transmitting antenna are used as a receiver. With the help of this receiver, the signal of a transmitting avalanche transceiver was analysed. Furthermore, the results were used to evaluate the most suitable search technique. Our robot is based on the “RP6” robot system, which is programmable in the C-language. The signal of the receiver is modified in a way which allows the robot to read it. Based on the results of the signal analysis, a search algorithm is developed. In the final tests the robot was examined as to its functionality and efficiency. Therefore, the robot was positioned at randomly chosen starting points to locate the transmitting device. 3. Data The transmitter could be located correctly in every test. The starting points were successfully located up to 11 m from the transmitter. The search ending points were found at a maximum range of 0.5 m from the correct position. 4. Conclusions In view of the results, the aim of developing an automatic localisation of an avalanche transceiver on flat ground as a prototype is seen as fulfilled. Outside the specified range, the transmitter can only be located unreliably. This is due to the fact that outside that range the signal differential in different directions is too small to be processed by the robot. Our prototype was tested under ideal conditions. Certainly, our robot is still some way from being ready for use in an actual avalanche. Many different questions have not been answered yet or have come up during this project, for example: ‘How should the robot should be applied on uneven terrain?’ or: ‘How should it deal with several buried people at once (multiple transmitted signals)?’ Two aspects of our prototype, the low weight and the low construction costs, however, are particularly favourable.

HOW HIGH ARE YOU REALLY JUMPING?

Purpose High-jump athletes are not always aware of the exact height they are jumping. They know that they are clearing the height set by the bar, but not their specific height, which may in fact be a record without them even knowing it. The purpose of this project is thus to design and make a device that will enable high-jump athletes to know exactly how high they are jumping. Procedure Background research was conducted and it was confirmed that no similar products are currently available. Possible types of sensors and micro-controllers were then investigated and then both a prototype and model were built to test the concept. Appropriate changes and adjustments were then made to the design until all func-tions were working accordingly. With the assistance of an experienced software de-veloper, a program was designed to communicate the data collected from the sen-sors into a graphical user interface. Results Many variables, contributing to the accuracy of the obtained results, had to be tak-en into consideration. These variables include interference with the sensors, which resulted in less accurate readings, as well as weather conditions. The latter was found not to have as drastic an effect on the results. Conclusion A device that enables athletes to measure the true height they are clearing was suc-cessfully designed and created. This device will thus be able to help motivate athletes by measuring their true capa-bilities.

Synthesis and Characterization of Niobium Nitride Nanowires

This project aims to explore the potential of inexpensive in-situ deposition of niobium nitride nanowires to improve electrical conductivity. Transition metal nitrides are well known for attributes such as superconductivity, high melting point, simple structure as well as excellent electrical and thermal conductivities. In particular, niobium nitride possesses exceptional hardness and high reflectivity, as well as being a stable field emitter, making it well suited to applications as a cold cathode material. Niobium nitrides are formed by the uptake of nitrogen by niobium. This is achieved by the exothermic formation of an interstitial solid solution of nitrogen atoms in the bcc lattice of the niobium. Existing research has established the possibility of preparing niobium nitride by heating niobium in nitrogen or ammonia over a range of temperatures, by heating niobium pentaoxide and carbon in the presence of nitrogen as well as by chemical vapor deposition of other niobium compounds, nitrogen or hydrogen. For the purpose of this study, a two-step process was used for synthesis. The benefits of a two-step process over direct ammonolysis are apparent, from the greater degree of freedom pertaining to parameter determination. Additionally, characterization of niobium pentaoxide nanowires synthesize under similar conditions is also made possible by terminating the reaction earlier. NbN nanowires were synthesized by annealing niobium pentaoxide nanowires at 850 oC for 2 hours. Subsequent characterization was done using Raman Spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The presence of NbN nanowires via the conversion of Nb2O5 was ascertained by the absence of sharp peaks at 1000 cm-1 for Raman Spectroscopy and XRD plots. Field emission (FE) properties and electrical properties of NbN nanowires were then measured. NbN nanowires were found to have a high turn-on voltage, stable and relatively good field emission characteristics, demonstrating its potential as a cold cathode material. No current saturation was observed for an applied electric field of 0 to 6.0 V/ μm (5). This suggests a low degree of contact resistance for nanowires produced by this method of annealing, since the passage of electrons is not obstructed. Hence there will only be a small voltage drop between the SiO2 substrate and NbN nanowires. Samples containing NbN nanowires were dislodged by ultrasound to form an aqueous suspension of nanowires. A drop of suspension was dripped onto gold-finger substrates, and current-voltage (I-V) measurements of resultant nanowire bridges were taken. NbN nanowire bridges display Ohmic properties, in comparison with Nb2O5 nanowires that are semiconducting. Nanowire bridges obtained by heat-drying were denser and had better electrical properties than those obtained by evaporation to dryness. NbN nanowire bridges display Ohmic properties, in comparison with Nb2O5 nanowires that are semiconducting. Further work would include varying the cooling processes to observe any changes or deformation. Additionally, niobium nitride nanowires can be hybridized with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). A more in-depth comparison between niobium oxide and niobium nitride nanowires is also proposed, along with exploration of the nitrification of other transition metals.

滑鼠狂想曲

光學滑鼠會以很高的速度不斷地對著接觸面拍照,藉由比對每幅影像間的變化來偵測滑鼠移動的速度與方向,本研究利用此特點而設計一個簡易的光學量測系統,其中包括透鏡、光源與接觸面材質的選擇,以及利用Raw Input 模式讀取個別滑鼠移動訊息而發展出來的量測程式,使得此系統可以在無接觸與無摩擦的情況下來測量外界物體的移動速度與距離,經由實驗證明,在光學感測器還可以感應與追蹤的範圍內,量測的數據還蠻精準的。接觸面到光學感測器透鏡的距離越遠,能夠測得移動物體的極速也越高,但是會造成感測器的解析度下降,如此限制了接觸面的材質種類,無法量測表面較為光滑的物體,但是在設計得宜的情況下,仍有蠻多方面的用途,日後若能採用較高效能的光學感測器並加上測距儀的輔助,相信此系統的應用層面會更為廣泛。Optical mouse can take continuous snapshots very quickly of the contact surface and compare the images sequentially to detect the direction and amount of movement. This study uses this feature to design a simple optical measurement system, including lens, illumination and contact surface choice, as well as the measurement program using raw input model to accept the movement information from the mouse. This system can measure the distance and speed of the motion object under the non-friction condition. From the experiment test result, this optical measurement system is workable and satisfactory. Contact surface to optical sensor distance farther, can measure the higher speed of the motion object, but will cause the lower resolution of the optical sensor. This will limit the variety of the contact surface; superficial smoother object is unable to measure. In the future if we can use the high performance optical sensor and assist with rangefinder, believed this system can have more widespread applications.
