This paper presents a power management system of the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) for ubiquitous sensor network (USN) applications. The charge pump with a luminance-controlled oscillator regulates the load impedance of the DSSC to track the maximum power point (MPP) under various light intensities. The low drop-out regulator with a hysteresis comparator supplies intermittent power pulses that are wide enough for USN to communicate with a host transponder even under dim light conditions. With MPP tracking, approximately 50% more power is harvested over a wide range of light intensity. The power management system fabricated using $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS technology works with DSSC to provide power pulses of $36{\mu}A$. The duration of pulses is almost constant around $80{\mu}s$ (6.5 nJ/pulse), while the pulse spacing is inversely proportional to the light intensity.

가시광통신(VLC: Visual Light Communication) 시스템은 조명에 통신을 융합하는 개념으로, 조명기능의 깜박임을 최소화(Flickerless)하고 통신기능의 데이터 송수신 거리를 최대화하는 것이 핵심 설계목표가 된다. 본 논문에서는 VLC 통신시스템의 수신된 신호에 포함된 노이즈를 감쇠시킴으로써 송신측에서 보낸 신호를 정확히 검출할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고 그 구현 결과를 제시하였다. 본 연구의 1,2차 구현을 통하여, 수신측에 설계한 특정주파수 대역의 LPF와 HPF를 단계별로 삽입함으로써 송신 데이터의 인식률이 높아졌고, 이러한 인식률 증대를 통하여 광도가 미약한 보다 먼 거리에서 데이터 수신이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Somatic embryos were induced from immature cotyledons and cultured on a MS medium containing 40mg/L 2,4-D. The maximum induction of embryos was obtained from immature cotyledons in a size of 3-4mm, and the highest frequency was obtained in the induction medium at pH 7.0. For embryo development, embryogenic tissues were transferred to a MSM6AC and MSM6 media. Developing embryos were placed at 27$^{\circ}C$with dim light (20$\mu$$molm^{-2}$$s^{-1}$) provided by cool fluorescent tubes (3-D wavelength light is better than standard light). Somatic embryos were clearly developed from globular stage to cotyledonary stages. The color of embryo may be a useful parameter for estimation of embryo quality. When the embryo becomes mature, embryo will be ready for desiccation in order to induce roots and shoots of embryos.

빛은 인간이 주거공간에서 삶을 영위함과 더불어 창조활동을 하는데 있어서 가장 중요한 요소이다. 특히 식탁조명설계는 인간에게 신체적 심리적으로 가장 중요한 요소로 작용함에도 불구하고 현재까지 미적인 면만을 강조하였다. 그 이유는 조명디자이너가 KS기준조도에 맞추어 조명설계를 하고 있는데, KS기준조도는 한국의 사회 문화적 특성을 고려하지 않은 일본의 기준조도(JIS)를 기본으로 만들어진 것이므로 적절치 못한 조도레벨인 것이다. 따라서 한국의 특성이 반영된 기준조도 설정이 매우 시급한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 현재 공동주택에 적용되고 있는 조명설계 현황을 조사하고 분석하여 한국의 식문화에 적절한 조도레벨, 색온도, 조명디자인을 제안하여 조명설계시 가이드라인으로 활용하고자 한다.

본 논문은 레저스포츠 시장이 활성화되면서 총기를 활용한 활동이 늘어나고 있으며, 군대에서는 비용이 많이 드는 사격 훈련을 진행하고 있는 상황에서 저렴한 비용을 실외에서 훈련할수 있는 시스템을 연구했다. 이러한 고비용의 훈련을 저렴하게 대체하기 위해 가상 현실을 활용한 사이버 스크린이 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 스크린 사격 훈련 시스템의 문제점인 어두운 공간과 높은 설치 비용을 최소화하기 위해 대형 디스플레이 장치에서도 사용할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 이를 위해 전면에 IR 리시버를 부착하고 IR 건을 활용하여 훈련하는 시스템을 구축하고, 애플리케이션을 통해 사용성과 효율성을 확인했다. 또한, 영점 조절 기능을 추가하여 더 정확한 좌표를 인식할 수 있도록 했다. 이를 통해 낮은 비용으로도 사이버 라이트 건 시스템을 쉽게 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

이 논문에서는 시각적으로 명암이 인간의 정서에 영향을 미친다는 그레이브스의 명암이론을 적용하여 "라이온 킹" 에서 사용된 명암의 유형을 분석하고 작품 내에서 시각적으로 표현된 명암이 내러티브에서 전개되는 정서의 흐름과 어떠한 관계를 맺고 있는지에 대한 유형을 분석하였다. 이를 통하여 명암이 시각이미지에 끼치는 영향과 더불어 정서적인 분위기 표현에 중요한 요소로 작용한다는 점을 규명하고자 하였다. 애니메이션에서는 실사 영화와는 달리 내러티브상에서 전개되는 캐릭터들의 정서적 변화에 따른 이미지 연출이 더욱 강조 된다. 이는 관객들의 감정이입을 강화시키는 중요한 수단이 된다.

The susceptibility of chilling-resistant spinach plants. and of chilling-sensitive squash plants to photoinhibition was compared in terms of the activity of photosystem II, in relation to the deuce of fatty acid unsaturation of chloroplast membrane lipids. From thylakoid membranes of the plants. monogalactosyl diacylgtycerol, digalactosyl diacylglycerol. sulfoquinovosyt diacylglycerol, and phosphatidylglycerol were seperated as major lipid classes. It was found that the content of cis-unsaturated fatty acids of phosphatidylglycerol was greater by 32% in spinach than that in squash. When leaf disks were exposed to light at 5$\circ$C, 15$\circ$C and 25$\circ$C, photochemical efficiency of photosystem II. measured as the ratio of the variable to the maximum fluorescence of chlorophyll, declined markedly in squash plants, as compared to spinach plants. When leaf disks were exposed to strong light in the presence of lincomycin, an inhibitor of protein synthesis in chloroplasts, photoinhibition was accelerated in the two types of plants. Moreover, lincomycin treatment abolished the differences in the degree of susceptibility to strong light, which had been observed between the two types of plants. When the extent of photoinhibition of photosystem II-mediated electron transport was compared in thylakoid membranes isolated from the two types of plants, there were no differences in the degree of inactivation of photosystem II activity. However, when intact leaf disks were exposed to strong light either at 10$\circ$C or at 25$\circ$C, and then were allowed to recover either at 17$\circ$C or at 25$\circ$C in dim light. chilling-resistant plants such as spinach and pea showed marked recovery from photoinhibition, in contrast to chilling-sensitive plants, such as squash and sweet potato. whose recovery was strongly dependent on the temperature. These findings are discussed in relation to the unsaturation of fatty acids in membrane phosphatidylglycerol. It appears that fatty acid unsaturation of membrane lipids accelerates the recovery of photosystem H from photoinhibition, without affecting the photo-induced inactivation process of photosystem II associated with photoinhibition.

G Protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediating wide ranges of physiological responses is one of the most attractive targets for drug development. Rhodopsin, a dim-light photoreceptor, has been extensively used as a model system for structural and functional study of GPCRs. Fish have rhodopsin finely-tuned to their habitats where the intensity and the wavelength of lights are changed depending on its water-depth. To study the detailed molecular characteristics of GPCR architecture and to understand the fishery light-sensing system, genes encoding rod opsins were isolated from fishes living under different photic environments. Full-length rod opsin genes were obtained by combination of PCR amplification and DNA walking strategy of genomic DNA isolated from olive flounder, P. olivaceus, Japanese eel, A. japonica, and Common carp C. carpio. Deduced amino acid sequences showed a typical feature of rod opsins including the sites for Schiffs base formation (Lys296) and its counter ion (Glu113), disulfide formation (Cys110 and Cys187), and palmitoylation (Cys322 and Cys323) although Cys322 is replaced by Phe in Japanese eel. Comparison of opsins by amino acid sequence alignment indicated the closest similarity between P. olivaceus and H. hippoglossus (94%), A. japonica and A. anguilla (98%), and C. carpio and C. auratus (95%), respectively.

The test group and control group, which were grouped with the same weight of five frogs (Rana nigromaculata) respectively, were adapted to light for two hours. Then the anterior lymph heart of the test group were injected with 0.5 cc of 0.1% acetyl choline and 0.5cc of Vitamin B12 (50mc gm/cc). After the frogs of this group were dark-adapted for 90 minutes, their heads were cut off under the dim red light and then their retina removed from eye-balls were extracted with 2% digitonin solution for 20 hours at $0^{\circ}C$. The results of the comparison of these two groups whose optical densities were measured before and after the illumination areas follows : (1) The group which had been injected with 0.5cc of 0.1% acetyl choline solution had the protomotive action on the regeneration of rhodopsin in comparison with the control group. (2) The group which had been injected with 25 mc gm of Vitamin B12 and 0.5cc of 0.1% acetyl choline solution had the controlling action on the regeneration of rhodopsin in comparison with the control group.

Six frogs (Rana nigromaculata 25∼40 gm) were adapted to light for 2 hours. Then 0.02 ml of 3% nicotinamide and 0.02 ml of 0.6% folic acid were injected into the vitreous body of the right eye-ball, and 0.02 ml normal saline solution into the vitreous body of the left eye-ball respectively. After dark adaptation for an hour-their heads were cut off under a dim red light (650 $m{\mu}$). The retinae were removed from the left eye-ball for the control group and from the right for the test group respectively. Then rhodopsin was extracted from the retinae with 3 ml of 2% digitonin solution(pH = 7.0) for 17 hours at 0$^{\circ}C$ in the dark. The optical densities before and after the illumination of the extract were measured and compared with those of the control group. The results are as follows: 1) The group which had been injected with 0.02 ml of 3% nicotinamide solution had the promotive action on tile regeneration of rhodopsin in comparison with the control group. 2) The group which had been injected with 0.02 ml of 0.6% folic acid solution had the controlling action on the regeneration of rhodopsin in comparison with the control group.
