Abstract

In order to satisfy the graduation requirements, the graduation work should be presented as an engineering dissertation system of the produced work and an outline of the procedure made by the major unit in accordance with the graduation thesis submission rules, and suggests necessary matters for improvement. The design content relates to a small unmanned aerial vehicle configuration for detecting personnel or objects in a disaster area. It is equipped with an infrared sensor and a GPS in the drone, the drone is control by using Blutooth communications. The drones detect the target and use the GPS to determine the location. As a result of the experiment, it was possible to detect the structure object within the range of 3~4 m, confirm the transmission of the position value in real time, and increase the communication distance by using RF communication.

졸업 조건 만족을 위한 졸업 작품 제작과 제작된 작품의 공학 논문 체계로 서술해야 하는 졸업 논문 제출 규정에 따라 전공단위에서 이루어진 절차의 개요를 제시하고, 개선에 필요한 사항을 제안한다. 설계 내용은 재난 지역의 인원이나 물체를 탐지하기 위한 소형 무인기 구성에 관한 것이다. 적외선 센서와 GPS를 소형 무인기인 드론에 탑재하고, 블루투스 통신을 이용하여 드론을 조종한다. 조종되는 드론이 구조 대상물을 탐지하고, 드론에 탑재된 GPS를 이용하여 실시간으로 탐지한 대상물의 위치를 수신하는 대상물 탐지용 드론을 설계하고 제작한다. 실험결과로 3~4 m 범위의 구조 대상물 탐지가 가능했고, 위치값을 실시간으로 전송하는 것을 확인했으며, RF 통신을 이용하여 통신 거리를 증가시킬 계획이다.
