초록

한국의 고속철도에 승객의 안전과 편의를 제공하기 위하여 열차 내에 IT기술 및 센서 기술을 적용한 시스템의 개발을 연구하였다. 열차 내 화장실은 밀폐된 공간으로 외부의 도움이 필요한 상황이 발생하더라도 승객 스스로가 요청하기 전까지 외부에서는 승객의 상황을 확인하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 화장실 내에 개인의 프라이버시를 침해하지 않으면서도 응급상황 발생 시 센서를 통하여 외부에서 이를 감지하고 조치를 취할 수 있는 시스템의 개발내용을 정리하였다. 시스템의 요구사항을 분석하고 이를 통해 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였으며, 테스트 계획을 세우고 모의테스트를 진행함으로써 시스템의 작동상태를 확인하였다. 개발된 시스템은 향후 열차 화장실뿐만 아니라 다양한 곳에 설치하여 활용이 가능할 것이다.

In this paper, studied was the application of IT and sensor technology to trains in order to provide safety and convenience for passengers. One of applications is Lavatory Emergency Detection System in a train. Since a lavatory in a train is securely separated space, it is hard to notice an emergency inside of it unless a user sends a request for help. A system that can detect an emergency by using sensors was presented. System requirements were analyzed to design and implement a system. Prototype of the system was made. Then, tests in a laboratory were carried out based on a set of test plan to verify the system functions. Performance was turned out to be very successful. The system developed may have a chance to be installed according to the requirements of specifications of the train to be ordered.
