디지털 래디오그래피 시스템을 이용하여 환자를 진료하기 위해서는 전처리 과정을 통해 DR 디텍터의 불량화소와 선을 제거하고 offset과 X선의 불균질성을 제거해야만 한다. 불균질성을 제거하기 위해 X-선의 flat field 영상이 필요하며 이는 X선관의 focal spot과 디텍터의 중심과 일치시켜 X선을 디텍터에 수직으로 입사시켜 얻는다. 이러한 영상 촬영구조는 환자를 촬영할 때에도 그대로 유지된다. 하지만 방사선 촬영 기법 중 여러 가지 요인으로 디텍터의 중심과 X선관의 중심을 일치시키지 않거나 디텍터를 기울여 촬영하는 방법들이 있다. 본 연구에서는 디텍터가 기울어져 있거나 또는 임의의 위치에서의 flat field correction 방법의 영향을 분석하고, 새로운 알고리즘을 이용하여 그 영향을 줄이고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과로 DR 디텍터에서 X선의 flat field를 최대한 보장할 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구에서는 I-125 (35 keV) 와 Tc-99m (140 keV)에 대해 고해상도를 지닌 SPECT 영상을 동일한 검출기로 획득하는 방법을 제시하였고, 이를 몬테칼로 시뮬레이션 코드인 DETECT2000과 GATE를 이용하여 검증하였다. 제안된 검출기는 두께 3.0 mm의 CsI (Tl) 블록형 섬광체와 하마마츠사의 H8500C PSPMT로 이루어져 있다. 35 keV 감마선을 방출하는 I-125 핵종을 영상화할 때는 두꺼운 섬광체를 사용 할 경우, 일반적인 앵거방법으로는 빛 퍼짐이 많아지기 때문에 내인성 공간분해능이 저하되지만, 최대우도 함수와 색인테이블을 사용하여 감마선 반응 위치를 추적하면 내인성 공간분해능을 향상시킬 수 있다. DETECT2000 시뮬레이션 결과 1.0 mm 이내의 내인성 공간분해능을 획득하였다. 140 keV를 방출하는 Tc-99m를 영상화할 경우에는 I-125 전용인 1.0 mm 두께의 섬광체를 사용하였을 경우보다 3.0 mm 두께의 섬광체를 사용하였을 때 2.3배 이상 향상된 민감도를 보였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 검출기의 장점은 저에너지의 I-125 선원에 대해 상대적으로 두꺼운 섬광체를 사용하더라도 최대우도함수를 사용하기 때문에 분해능의 감소가 없다는 점과 Tc-99m 선원에 대해 민감도의 저하가 적다는 점이다. 본 연구에서 제안한 검출기를 사용하면 고에너지와 저에너지를 가진 핵종을 모두 영상화할 수 있다.

Conceptual design of the next generation PET with both high sensitivity and high spatial resolution has been performed. A detector unit using a depth encoding scheme was designed and constructed for trial. The unit consists of four Gd$_2$SiO$\sub$5/:Ce crystal blocks in a 2x2x4 array coupled to a position-sensitive photomultiplier tube having metal channel dynodes and 4x4 multi-anodes. Our proposed detector is a very reliable and simple solution suitable for volume PET devices since the proposed depth encoding scheme does not need additional photo-detectors.

This paper represents an absolute positioning system using a light navigation path for mobile robot. The absolute positioning system is composed of the projector unit which generates a laser beam using laser diode and mobile robot with the optical detector which has some optical sensors. The projector unit is fixed over the navigating plane of mobile robot to generate the light navigation path, and the optical detector located upper part of mobile robot detects the generated laser beam from the projector. The navigation of mobile robot is controlled by the micro-processor which compares the detected present position from the detector with the previously programmed navigation path. And experimental results show that our sensor system can be used for the absolute positioning system of the mobile robot.

A tail-on-detector (TOD) view has been used to see the symphysis pubis or sacrococcyx in skeletal scintigraphy, but it is inconvenient to acquire because a patient must sit or lean on a detector. The TOD views are still frequently performed in training hospitals in Korea, although it is becoming almost impossible to sit on a camera in this age of dual-headed cameras. The authors show cases with lateral views obtained in supine position that were acquired for the same reason; they are easier and more useful than the TOD views.

In this paper we will deal with a calibration method for low cost motion capture system using psd(position sensitive detection) optical sensor. To measure the incident direction of the light from LED emitted marker, the PSD is used the output current ratio on the electrode of PSD is proportional with the incident position of the light focused by lens. In order to defect the direction of the light, the current output is converted into digital voltage value by opamp circuits peak detector and AD converter with the digital value the incident position is measured. Unfortunately, due to the non-linearly problem of the circuit poor position accuracy is shown. To overcome such problems, we compensated the non-linearly by using least-square fitting method. After compensated the non-linearly in the circuit, the system showed more enhanced position accuracy.

This paper presents a study of a position finding system for a reactor inspection robot. The position of PSD(Position Sensitive Detector) sensor is calculated by the degree of pan-tilt and the difference in height between pan-tilt and PSD. For that, the DSP which control pan-tilt is used for precise operation and the PIC microcontroller process PSD sensor data that indicate light incident position. A user using computer can acquire the conditions of pan-tilt and PSD.

In this paper we present how to design the software-based speed and position controller of a DC servo drive system for an educational robot. The controller designed by fully digital scheme consists of a CPU, drive unit, encoder pulse coding unit, speed and position detector. The control algirithm of the controller is a hybrid one such that speed control and position control are switched at some instant to get more accuracy. The experimental resusts of the proposed DC servo-controller show good performances for the position and speed control of the proposed educational robot system.

In conventional automatic container-terminal, the gantry cranes are operated manually or semi-automatically. But UGC is an unmanned-operated gantry crane and the positioning information for UGC is supplied only by position-measuring devices. In order to enhance the operation efficiency of UGC, it is required that the position-measuring devices have long maintenance period and are not sensitive to the weather and environment condition. And in order to be used practically in container terminal, the cost of position-measuring devices is not higher than currently used measuring devices. In the study, it is discussed the requirements for position-measuring devices in UGC, And it is studied on the measuring devices suitable to UGC. From this study, it is expected that the combination of a rotary encoder and a ferrous metal detector is useful for position-measuring devices in UGC.

This paper proposes a high precision measurement technique to obtain the height of gage block. The proposed technique is consisted of two steps : In the first step, laser position transducer and electric micrometer are adopted to obtain a coarse value of the height of gage block, and then, second, heterodyne laser interferometry is adopted to acquire the precision value. The experiment results show that accuract in the order of a few nanometer is achieved for the gage blacks of as high as a few millimeter.
