This paper discusses the daytime atmospheric conditions and the possibility of daytime star detection with the purpose of practical use of the star sensor for daylight navigation. In order to estimate the daytime atmospheric data, we use the standard atmospheric model (LOWTRAN 7), from which atmospheric transmittance and radiance from background sky are calculated. Assuming the star sensor with an optical filter to reduce background radiation, different separation angles between the star sensor and the sun are set up to express the effect of the solar radiation. As considerations of field of view (FOV) of the star sensor, the variation of the sky background radiation and the star density of the detectable star are analyzed. In addition, the integration time to achieve a required signal-to-noise ratio and the number of the radiation-caused electrons of the charge coupled detector(CCD) working as the limit to daylight application of the star sensor are calculated.

해색원격탐사에서 해수 type을 광학적 성질에 따라 Case-I water와 Case-II water로 구분한다. Case-I water는 기본적으로 조류 세포 및 그 쇄설물 그리고 미량의 용존 유기물을 포함하며, 맑은 해수인 대양이 이에 속한다. Case-II water는 부유 무기입자, 육상 기원입자 및 높은 용존 유기물 농도, 인간이 만든 유입물을 포함한 탁한 해수이며, 연안 해역의 해수가 이에 속한다(Gordon, 1983). Case-II water에 속하는 연안 해역의 부유사 농도는 해양 연안 환경 변화를 모니터링 할 수 있는 중요한 지표 중 하나이다. 부유사가 연안 환경, 연안 양식장, 어장 환경에 어떤 영향을 주는지 파악할 수 있다. 채수를 통하여 부유사 농도를 추정하는 것은 시간적 경제적 제약이 따른다. 하지만 위성자료와 실측 자료간의 상관관계가 잘 나타나는 계수를 유도하면, 실측없이 위성영상만 있으면 연속적인 부유사 농도 분포를 볼 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 이런 목적으로 Landsat ETM+ 자료를 이용하여 광양만의 표층 부유사 농도를 추정하였다. 위성 통과시간에 맞춰 2009년 9월 22일과 11월 25일 2차례에 걸쳐 부유사 농도와 반사도를 광양만 16개 정점에서 측정하였다. 부유사 농도는 표층의 해수를 채수하여 GF/F 필터를 이용해 측정되었고, 반사도는 Spectroradiometer를 사용하여 350nm부터 1050nm까지 1nm 간격으로 측정되었다. Landsat ETM+ 자료와 실측 반사도는 원격반사도 $R_{rs}$로 변환되었고, 두 가지 $R_{rs}$를 실측 부유사 농도와 비교하여 부유사 농도 산출 계수를 유도하였다. 경험적으로 구한 계수를 사용하여 위성영상을 부유사 농도로 계산하였으며, 이는 같은 날의 실측 부유사 농도와 비슷한 공간분포를 나타내었다.

The FT-IR absorption spectrum by the lattice vibrations of ruby and garnet obtained from FT-IR shows quite different characteristics. By the UV-VIS spectroscopy it was found that the ruby has two transmission bands in red and blue region, while garnet has only one transmission band in red region. The color filter to distinguish ruby from garnet was developed and named HWANG JI HO filter. Through the HWANG JI HO filter, ruby was shown in blue color and garnet was shown in dark red color because of the only the blue region transmittance of the filter. Other red stones, such as spinel, tourmaline were shown in dark red color like as garnet. The ruby could be recognized easily from the red stone.

Optical characteristics and structural changes depending on CuO content in phosphate glasses that are used in near-infrared (near-IR) filters were investigated. With phosphate glasses that contain 1-9 mol% CuO, changes in optical transmittance, optical absorption, and color coordinate were measured with a UV-VIS spectrophotometer. An XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analysis was performed to determine valence of copper ion that influences optical characteristics in near-IR filter glasses. Structural changes in glasses depending on CuO content were also analyzed by FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared) and Raman spectrophotometers. From the UV-VIS spectrophotometer results, strong absorption peaks at 220 & 900 nm were found and transmittance was decreased. The color coordinates of the glasses were shifted to the green color direction with CuO addition for increasing absorption of long wavelength range spectra, in spite of the amount of $Cu^{2+}$, which gives a blue color to glasses, and which was increased in XPS results. Also, structural de-polymerization of glasses with CuO addition were found by FT-IR and Raman results.

This study describes a non-invasive optical sensor and system in order to obtain oxygen saturation of blood, in-vitro. The sensor contains LED 665nm and 805nm of wavelength for light source and PIN photodiode for light detector in flat pack. The sensor system for measurement of oxygen saturation has breadboarded, including signal amplifier, filter, displayer, A/D converter, microprocessor and memory. Experimental set-up for non-invasive measurement of oxygen saturation in-vitro was done. When the variation of oxygen saturation is compared with that of each wavelength, the variation of 665nm is more than that of 805nm by five times. As oxygen saturation varies from 100% to 60%, and the reflection ratio (R805/R665) is changed linearly. The oxygen saturation in $100%{\sim}60%$ range can be measured with about 5% resolution by the developed sensor, such that if this sensor connects with the main artery and vein, the artificial heart can be controlled rapidly and precisely from measurement of the sensor.

LCD is supplied light by BLU(Back Light Unit) and the light represents color by each color filter. Also LCD adjusts the amount of light by controlling liquid crystal between the glass of upper plate and one of lower. However, it is impossible to completely exclude light due to the structural and physical characteristic of liquid crystal. Therefore, on transfering light through optical sheet and liquid crystal, many problems are generated. They are related with energy efficiency and get effective for the contrast of LCD to have lower contrast ratio than other display devices. To solve the problems, many techniques have been studied and developed but don't exist keys to solution for them. Among methods, local dimming is one example to be applied to LCD. In this paper we propose image processing algorithm for local dimming of BLU of LED used as light source. The proposed algorithm extracts maximum luminance signal and lights using each extracted signal on segmented region of BLU. Also the proposed algorithm generates image signal in corresponding to luminance of the segmented region and supplies them with LCD panel to represent image with improving luminance ratio.

디스플레이 및 반도체 산업이 발전함에 따라 회로의 선폭이 점차 줄어들고 있으며, 이에 따라서 대표적인 오염원이 되는 오염입자의 임계 직경(critical diameter) 또한 작아지고 있다. 현재 반도체 및 디스플레이 산업에서 사용되는 측정방법은 레이저를 이용하여 공정 후 표면에 남아 있는 오염입자를 측정하는 ex-situ 방법이 주를 이루고 있다. Ex-situ 방법을 이용한 오염입자의 제어는 웨이퍼 전체를 측정할 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 실시간 측정이 불가능하기 때문에 공정 모니터링 장비로 사용이 어려우며 오염입자와 공정 간의 상관관계 파악에도 많은 제약이 따르게 된다. 이에 따라 저압에서 in-situ 방법을 이용한 실시간 오염입자 측정 기술 개발이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 저압 환경에서 실시간으로 입자를 모니터링 할 수 있는 장비를 입자의 광산란 원리를 이용하여 개발하였다. 빛이 입자에 조사되면 크게 산란 및 흡수현상이 일어나게 되는데, 이 때 발생하는 산란광은 입자의 크기와 관계가 있으며 Mie 이론으로 널리 알려져 있다. 현재 이를 이용한 연구가 국내 및 국외에서 진행되고 있다. 수 백 nm 대의 입자를 측정하기 위해서는 빛의 강도가일정 수준 이상 되어야 하며, 이를 측정할 수 있는 수신부의 감도 또한 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 빛의 직경을 100 um 이하까지 집속할 수 있는 광학계를 상용 프로그램을 이용하여 설계하였으며, 강도가 약한 산란광 측정을 위하여 노이즈 제거 필터링 기술 등이 적용된 수신부 센서를 개발하여 전체 시스템에 적용하였다. 교정은 상압과 저압에서 수행 하였으며 약 5%의 측정효율로 최소 300 nm 이하의 입자까지 측정이 가능함을 확인 하였다. 또한, 타사의 실시간 입자 측정 센서와의 비교 실험을 통하여 성능평가를 수행하였다. 기존 광산란 방식 센서보다 높은 성능의 센서를 개발하기 위하여 추후 연구를 진행할 계획이며, 약 200 nm 이하의 입자까지 측정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

We achieved 95% visibility in the Hong-Ou-Mandel interference experiment while we achieved only 56% visibility in a previous report. We used a 120 mW 405 nm single-mode continuous wave laser, a 5-mm-thick type-1 ${\beta}$-barium borate single crystal, standard Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer optics, two avalanche photodiode single-photon counters, and a homemade coincidence counting unit. The photon collection unit was the key difference between the present study and the previous study. In the present experiment, we used single-mode optical fibers for photon collection, which suppressed accidental coincidence between-different mode photons by acting as a spatial filter because of its core size being much smaller than a multi-mode fiber.

The non-contact body temperature measurement system is one of the key factors, which is manage febrile diseases in mass facilities using optical and thermal imaging cameras. Conventional systems can only be used for simple body temperature measurement in the face area, because it is used only a deep learning-based face detection algorithm. So, there is a limit to detecting abnormal symptoms of the infants and young children, who have difficulty expressing their opinions. This paper proposes an improved facial expression recognition algorithm for detecting abnormal symptoms in infants and young children. The proposed method uses an object detection model to detect infants and young children in an image, then It acquires the coordinates of the eyes, nose, and mouth, which are key elements of facial expression recognition. Finally, facial expression recognition is performed by applying a selective sharpening filter based on the obtained coordinates. According to the experimental results, the proposed algorithm improved by 2.52%, 1.12%, and 2.29%, respectively, for the three expressions of neutral, happy, and sad in the UTK dataset.

In this study, we present a fully automated system that combines camera technology with liquid crystal technology to create a polarization camera capable of detecting the partial linear polarization of light reflected from an object. The use of twisted nematic (TN) liquid crystals that electro-optically modulate the polarization plane of light eliminates the need to mechanically rotate the polarizing filter in front of the camera lens. Images obtained using these techniques are imaged by computer software. In addition, liquid crystal panels have been produced in a square shape, but many camera lenses are usually round, and lighting or other driving units are installed around the lens, so space is optimized through the application of a circular liquid crystal display. Through the development of this technology, an electrically switchable and space-optimized liquid crystal polarizer is developed.
