A 16-views 3 dimensional imaging system is designed by spatially combinding two 8-views time multiplexed image channels. Each 8-views channel composed of 3 primary color CRTs and a dichroic beam splitter which combining the three CRTs as one channel. Each CRT displays 8-view images time sequentially. These images are projected to a holographic screen of a size 1$\times$0.8 $m^2$ through a projection optics. Characteristics of the three different configurations of projection optics are examined with the optics designing program "DEMOS" to select an optimized projection optics for the system. The configulation of the optimized projection optics is found like following; images from each channel combined by two-fold mirror are projected by a projection objective through a 16-strips LCD shutter. In this configuration, the shutter should be located at the entrance pupil of the objective, and the folded edge of the two-fold mirror should contact symmetrically to the center line of the shutter.e shutter.

The transducer section of the forward-looking ultrasound imaging catheter (FLUIC) consists of a circular piezoelectric element as a vibrator and a conical acoustic mirror as a perfect reflector. A small diameter piezoelectric transducer element is mounted on the side of a catheter's rotating shaft. The unique design of FLUIC provides the capability to form a two-dimensional image of a cross-section of vessel in front of the catheter, which is lacking in the present generation of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) transducers, as well as a conventional side view image. The mirror configuration for the transducer section of the FLUIC is designed using an approximated ray tracing techniques. The diffraction transfer function approach [1] developed for the field prediction from primary sources is generalized and extended to predict the secondary diffraction characterstics from an acoustic mirror. The extended model is verified by simulation and experiment through a simple plane reflector and employed to analyzed the field characteristics of a FLUIC.

We have fabricated and characterized MMI (Multimode Interference) coupled ring resonator with the total internal reflection mirrors and the semiconductor optical amplifier for the integration of the WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) system. The TIR (Total Internal Reflection) mirrors were fabricated by self-aligned process and had losses of about 0.71 dB per mirror. Coupling in and out of a resonator was achieved using the extremely small MMI couplers. The MMI length and width used in the experiment were $119{\mu}m$ and $9{\mu}m$, respectively. The resulting FSR (Free Spectral Range) and on-off ratio were approximately 1.333 nm (162 GHz) and 13 dB, respectively.

In this paper, we design the two-dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform (2D DWT) filter that is widely used in various applications such as image compression because it has no blocking effects and relatively high compression rate. The filter that we used here is two-channel four-taps QMF(Quadrature Mirror Filter) Lattice filter with PR (Perfect Reconstruction) property. The proposed DWT architecture, with two consecutive inputs shows an efficient performance with a minimum of such hardware resources as multipliers, adders, and registers due to a simple scheduling. The proposed architecture was verified by the RTL simulation, and utilizes the hardware 100%. Our architecture shows a relatively high performance with a minimum hardware when compared with other approaches. An efficient memory mapping and address generation techniques are introduced and the fixed-point arithmetic analysis for minimizing the PSNR degradation due to quantization is discussed.

This paper describes ultrasonically assisted grinding used to obtain a glossy surface quickly and precisely. High-quality surfaces are required for plastic injection molding dies used in the production of plastic parts such as dials for cellular phones. Traditionally, in order to finish the dies, manual polishing by a skilled worker has been required after the machining processes, such as electro discharge machining (EDM), which leaves an affected layer, and milling, which leaves tooling marks. However, manual polishing causes detrimental geometrical deviations of the die and consumes several days to finish a die surface. Therefore, a machining process for finishing dies without manual polishing to improve the surface roughness and form accuracy would be extremely valuable. In this study, a 3D positioning machine equipped with an ultrasonic spindle was used to conduct grinding experiments. An electroplated diamond tool was used for these experiments. Generally, diamond tools cannot grind steel because of excessive wear as a result of carbon atoms diffusing into bulk steel and chips. However, ultrasonically assisted grinding can achieve a fine surface (roughness Rz of $0.4{\mu}m$) on die steel without severe tool wear. The final aim of this study is to realize mirror surface grinding for injection molding dies without manual polishing. To do this, it is necessary to fabricate an electroplated diamond tool with high form accuracy and low run-out. This paper describes a tool-making method for high precision grinding and the grinding performance of a self-electroplated tool. The ground surface textures, tool performance and tool life were investigated A ground surface roughness Rz of 0.14 um was achieved Our results show that the spindle speed, feed rate and cross feed affected the surface texture. One tool could finish $5000mm^2$ of die steel surface without any deterioration of the ground surface roughness.

In museums, exhibition content focuses mostly on cultural heritage's historical values and functions, but doing so tends to limit visitors' interest and immersion. To counter this limitation, the study developed an experiential media art exhibition fusing bronze mirrors' traditional production technology and modern conservation science. First, for the exhibition system, scientific cultural heritage contents were projected on the three-dimensional (3D) printed bronze mirror through interactions between motion recognition digital information display (DID) and the projector. Then, a scenario of 17 missions in four stages (production process, corrosion mechanism, scientific analysis and diagnosis, and conservation treatment and restoration) was prepared according to the temporal spectrum. Additionally, various media art effects and interaction technologies were developed, so visitors could understand and become immersed in bronze mirrors' scientific content. A user test was evaluated through the living lab, reflecting generally high levels of satisfaction (90.2 points). Qualitative evaluation was generally positive, with comments such as "easy to understand and useful as the esoteric science exhibition was combined with media art" (16.7%), "wonderful and interesting" (11.7%), and "firsthand experience was good" (9.2%). By combining an esoteric science exhibition centered on principles and theories with visual media art and by developing an immersive directing method to provide high-level exhibition technology, the exhibition induced visitors' active participation. This exhibition's content can become an important platform for expanding universal museum exhibitions on archaeology, history, and art into conservation science.

It is necessary that fully differential operational amplifier circuit should drive an external load in the VLSI design such as SCF(Switched Capacitor Filter), D/A Converter, A/D Converter, Telecommunication Circuit and etc. The conventional CMOS operational amplifier circuit has many problems according to CMOS technique. Firstly, Capacity of large loads are not able to operate well. The problem can be solve to use class AB stages. But large loads are operate a difficult, because an element of existing CMOS has a quadratic functional relation with input and output voltage versus output current. Secondly, Whole circuit of dynamic range decrease, because a range of input and output voltages go down according as increasing of intergration rate drop supply voltage. The problem can be improved by employing fully differential operational amplifier using differential output stage with wide output swing. In this paper, we proposed new current mirror has large output impedance and good current matching with input an output current and compared with characteristics for operational amplifier using cascoded current mirror. To obtain large output swing and low power consumption we suggest a fully differential operational amplifier. The circuit employs an output stage composed new current mirror and two amplifier stage. The proposed circuit is layout and circuit of capability is inspected through simulation program(SPICE3f).

음성신호를 관찰하였을 때 성문특성으로 인해서 고주파쪽 특성이 약화되는 경향이 있다. 약화된 고주파 특성을 보상하기 위하여 프리 엠퍼시스 필터를 통해 보상하고 있다. 프리 엠퍼시스 필터를 간단한 수식으로 표현하면 y(n)=s(n)-As(n-1)와 같이 차분 방정식으로 나타낼 수 있다. 여기서 A값은 보통 0.9에서 1사이의 값을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 QMF 필터를 이용하여 입력신호를 고주파와 저주파의 2개의 대역으로 분할하여 각 밴드에 프리 엠퍼시스 필터를 적용하여 약화되어진 특성을 정확히 보상하는 방법을 제안한다.
