Abstract: A method of detecting a deviation of a travel path of a vehicle, may include a first step of determining whether a steering torque of a driver and a motor torque of a motor driven power steering apparatus have different directions, a second step of determining whether the vehicle travels at a predetermined speed or higher, a third step of determining whether the motor torque has a predetermined magnitude or larger, and a fourth step of determining whether a change rate of a yaw rate may be a predetermined value or less.

Abstract: A steer by wire apparatus performing steering operation by turning a wheel when a vehicle turns, may include a tie rod provided with one end pivotally connected to a knuckle of the wheel, a coupling unit rotatably mounted at a sub-frame of a vehicle body, connected to the other end of the tie rod, and converting rotation direction of torque from a first rotation direction to a second rotation direction which is substantially perpendicular to the first rotation direction so as to slidably move the tie rod from the coupling unit and control a steering angle of the wheel, and a motor unit fixed to the sub-frame and supplying the torque to the coupling unit according to a control signal of a vehicle ECU, the rotation direction of the torque being the same as the first rotation direction or being opposite to the first rotation direction.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling volume in a terminal adjust the volume of applications in the terminal without adjusting a main volume of the terminal. The apparatus and method display the relative volume of applications and allow a user to adjust each application's volume. If a user adjusts the volume of an application to be greater than a main volume of the terminal, the application's volume may be set to the main volume of the terminal.

Abstract: Disclosed is an underwater robot based on flapping comprising: an actuator including a smart material and directional material, wherein the smart material is changed in its shape according to an external signal, and the directional material restricts a deformation in a specific direction; a body connected with the actuator; and a controller which makes the actuator perform a first stroke in a direction, and a second stroke in another direction being different from that of the first stroke; wherein the actuator performs at least one deformation of bending and twisting according to position of the smart material and directionality of the directional material, and furthermore enables to simultaneously perform the smooth bending and twisting motion with the simple structure by adjusting the position of the smart material functioning as the active component, and the directionality of the directional material functioning as the passive component.

Abstract: The present invention provides a power transmission device for an electric vehicle, which can easily transmit the rotational power of a motor to a wheel axle even when the motor is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the wheel axle in view of the layout. According to the present invention, it is possible to easily transmit the rotational power of the motor to the wheel axle by arranging the motor in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the wheel axle, such as in the case where the motor cannot be arranged in a lateral direction parallel to the wheel axle in view of the vehicle layout, thereby increasing the degree of freedom for the design of the layout of the electric vehicle.
