In this paper, an image-based luminance measurement system(LMS) is proposed to measure the luminance of outdoor signboards. We design the LMS that can improve disadvantages of efficiency of the point-luminance meter and portability of face-luminance meter using the image of DSLR camera and print out the luminance value by using the proposed luminance analysis algorithm in real time. Outdoor signboards have various size and shape, and are also installed on the various place. Luminance of the signboard is influenced by measurement location, angle, color, etc. Therefore, we measure the change of luminance value in accordance with measurement location for accurate luminance measurement and then consider the luminance value according to the measurement distance. We obtain a numerical relation between luminance value and measurement location. The proposed LMS is verified through comparative experiment with point-luminance meter.

컴퓨터를 이용한 독순 연구는 Man Machine Interface, 지적부호화에 있어서의 송신측 기술, 청각 장애인의 독순 훈련 시스템 등 다방면에서 그 응용이 기대된다. 본 논문은, 움직임 정보는 입술의 에지영역에 집중하고 있음에 주목하여, 입술 에지영역의 Optical Flow 추정값을 독순정보로 이용하는 방법을 제안한다. 휘도값을 갖지 않는 에지에, 선형 가상 휘도값를 정해주어 Optical Flow를 추정하는 VGM을 도입해 특징 파라미터를 계산하고, 마할라노비스 평방거리(Mahalanobis's square distance)에 기초한 최대우도판별함수를 이용하여 단모음을 분석하는 알고리즘을 제안한다.

According to large-sized LCD, the CCFL used in backlight is getting longer and a backlight using one lamp makes a needed brightness by arranging lamp in parallel because of the limit of brightness. In this paper, the inverter to nu the large back-light in 42inch LCD TV using 20 CCFLs was designed to produce the same output on each lamp in any input condition. Supplementing the conventional high-low method driving CCFL, by adopting high-high one, the brightness variation among each lamp sides is improved. Additionally, to improve the brightness variation, the method connecting the lamp and the capacitor in series is used. The proposed system was verified by the experiment.
