Abstract: Disclosed are a key managing system and method for sensor network security. The key managing system includes a secret key transmitter configured to transmit a portion of a secret key map, stored in a node, to a correspondent node, and transmit the secret key map of the node to the correspondent node by using the transmitted portion of the secret key map and an authenticator configured to acquire a trust level of the correspondent node which indicates a ratio of a total size of the secret key map of the node and a size of the secret key map transmitted to the correspondent node, compare the acquired trust level of the correspondent node and a threshold value, and authenticate the correspondent node and a message acquired from the correspondent node by using the comparison result.

Abstract: Provided is an automatic texture recognition apparatus. The automatic texture recognition apparatus includes a light irradiation unit irradiating, to a subject, a light modulation pattern generated according to a synchronization control signal and a pattern control signal; a hybrid optical sensor taking an image of the subject to generate an image input signal; a texture recognition unit using the image input signal to recognize a 2D texture of the subject; and a control unit generating the synchronization control signal and the pattern control signal, wherein the texture recognition unit transmits a process result according to whether the 2D texture of the subject is recognized, the control unit generates the pattern control signal and the synchronization control signal for changing the light modulation pattern according to the process result.
