Purpose: The purpose of this study was to design a variable frequency LED light system for plant factory which combined red, blue, green, white, and UV lights and controlled the ratio of the light wavelength. In addition, this study evaluated the performance of each combination of LED to verify the applicability. Methods: Four combinations of LED (i.e. Red+Blue, Red+Blue+Green, Red+Blue+White, Red+Blue+UV) were designed using five types of LED. The system was designed to control the duty ratio of each wavelength of LED by 1% interval from 0~100%, the pulse by 1Hz interval from 1~20kHz. Response characteristics of the control system, spectral distribution of each combination, light uniformity and uniformity ratio were measured to test the performance of the system. Results: Clean waveforms were measured from 10Hz to 10kHz regardless of duty ratio. Frequency distortion was observed within 5% of inflection point at frequencies above 10kHz regardless of duty ratio, but it was judged negligible. Spectra showed a normal distribution, and maximum PPF with duty ratio of 100% was $271.4{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ for the Red+Blue combination. PPF of the Red+Blue+Green combination was $258.9{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, and that of the Red+Blue+White combination was $273.9{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. PPF of the Red+Blue+UV combination was $267.7{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. Uniformity ratio for the area excepting border showed 0.90 for the Red+Blue and Red+Blue+White combinations, 0.87 for the Red+Blue+Green combination, and 0.88 for the Red+Blue+UV combination. The light was irradiated evenly at the area excepting border, so it was suitable for plant growing. Conclusions: From the results of this study, response characteristics of the control system, spectral distribution of each combination, light uniformity and uniformity ratio were suitable for applying into the plant factory.

Fishing efficiency of the squid jigging vessel using the LED and metal halide fishing lamp combination was analyzed to reduce the cost for fishing operation utilizing the fishing light system for high degree of efficiency in the squid jigging fishery (one of the representative coastal and offshore fisheries in Korea). This study aims to improve the nature of existing LED lamps and to develop fan-shaped LED lights having 180W of power and ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ angle of light intensity distribution. The marine experiment for making a comparison of their fishing efficiency was tested by a 9.77 tons fishing vessel from Oct. through Dec. 2012. As a result, experimental fishing vessel showed slightly higher fishing efficiency than the average of metal halide lamp-equipped vessel and 20% energy savings. This means that the combination of LED and metal halide lamps would provide an efficient way to lower energy consumption while maintaining fishing efficiency.

The purpose of this study is to find an efficient way using dimmable LED lamps to describe specific target illuminance and color temperature. This study used 14 dimmable LED lamps as same or different color temperature. The method of study is to measure of electric power consumption using different color temperature of dimmable LED lamps that were combination of two or three dimmable LED lamps by simultaneously dimming. Through this method, the electric power consumption was compared with all combinations of the illuminance and color temperature.

The LED backlight can be designed to have the desired uniformity by using many combination of reflector patterns. The uniformity of the LED backlight can improve by applying the specially designed reflector patterns. In this paper, it was shown that the 72.7% of luminance uniformity of the LED backlight with reflector patterns was obtained by computer simulation.

This paper is suitable for household plant factory by design and using both energy-saving LED and solar technology. Conventional household plant factory only depending on natural sunlight is sensitive for the change of external environment. Another a big problem of conventional common household plant factory is large power consumption. Recently interest in wellbeing food such as chemical-free is increased abruptly. To solve these two problems, this paper describes hybrid type of household plant. In particular, reducing the power photosynthesis photon flux density (PPFD) is kept uniform to enhance the growth of the plant. Ambient light sensor is adopted for the control of proper combination of sunlight and LED to keep PPFD constant.

본 논문에서는 적색, 녹색, 청색의 세 가지 고휘도 LED를 하나의 소켓에 설치하여, 하나의 화소체 단위를 만들고, 이 화소체들의 조합과 다수 모듈들의 조합으로 문자, 그래픽, 동영상 등의 다양한 영상을 표출할 수 있는 풀컬러 전광판 모듈 및 제어장치를 개발하였다. LED 전광판 드라이버 모듈은 일정한 단위 면적에 RGB 픽셀을 조합한 도트에 드라이버 회로가 내장된다. 기존의 이러한 모듈형태는 특정 공간 및 설치 공간에 고정된 해상도를 구현하므로 가격이 높게 책정될 수 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 임의의 피치 간격으로 배열이 자유로운 LED 드라이버 및 이에 따른 LED 픽셀 모듈을 개발하였다. 본 논문의 전광판 모듈은 기존 각각의 LED 모듈을 구동함에 있어서 병렬 방식의 데이터 처리 방식을 픽셀을 기준으로 그 위의 서브 모듈과 그 상위에 마스터 모듈의 개념을 도입하고 각각의 화소를 직병렬 통신 방식으로 개선함으로 인해서 처리할 수 있는 데이터의 속도를 초당 36프레임 이상으로 끌어올려서 상대적으로 데이터의 처리량이 많은 동화상의 경우에도 원활한 디스플레이를 할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 기존 전광판의 깜박거림 현상이 개선되어 보다 선명한 영상이 제공되는 효과도 있다.

This study suggests experimental designs for interior products utilizing LEDs that are ideal for expressing diversity of light. It also attempts to develop various products by incorporating economic efficiency and diverse colors of LEDs into interior elements. LED door handles offer a range of 6-color LED lighting strips as a safety lighting system, while multi-function furniture (CUBE-scape) consists of LEDs with double-sided emitted lighting on completely transparent track structures. Both products are designed to make interior elements more user-friendly as they make most use of unique effects of LED such as light vibration and changes. Also the combination of plastic material-Technogel$^{\circledR}$, polypropylene, polycarbonate- maximize the LED lighting effect and diversify the designed item selection.
