LCD-TV applications were successfully implemented using integrated gate drivers. Integrated gate drivers have been implemented on a HD panel for 60Hz operation and on a FHD panel for 120Hz operation. It is found that the integrated gate driver reduces the flicker of a panel.

Gate and data drivers are essential for driving active matrix display. In this study, we integrate drivers with a-Si:H to develop a compact, better reliability and cost effective display. We design and fabricate drivers with conventional a-Si:H thin film transistors (TFTs). The output voltages are investigated according to the input voltage, temperature and operation time. Based on these studies, we propose here a new driver to prevent gate line from the floated state. For the external coupled voltage fluctuation, the proposed driver shows better stability.

Assuming the majority of car accidents are due to driver errors, we due rear-end collisions which occurred in the State of Washington, USA, in 1982, 1983, and 1984, to study human responsible involvement associated with the sex and age of drivers. Rear-end collisions involving two passenger cars are included in this study. The driver of a car which struck the rear end of another car is considered responsible for the accident, and the driver of a car which was struck in the rear end is not considered responsible for the accident. In addition to male and female drivers, we used three different age groups: 16 to 24 years old, 25 to 34 years old, and 35 years or older. Hence, six diferent groups of drivers are considered in this study.

This paper demonstrates a new driving scheme that allows reducing the supply voltage of data drivers for low-power active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays. The proposed technique drives down the data voltage range by 50%, which subsequently diminishes in the peak power consumption of data drivers at the full white pattern by 75%. Because the gate voltage of a driving thin film transistor covers the same range as a conventional driving scheme by means of a level-shifting scheme, the low-data supply scheme achieves the equivalent dynamic range of OLED currents. The average power consumption of data drivers is reduced by 60% over 24 test images, and power consumption is kept below 25%.

This study was performed to evaluate the whole-body vibration and occupational noise for excavator drivers. Measurement, evaluation and assessment were based on the ISO 2631 and OSHA. Average vibration level was 0.65m/$s^2$(z axis) for breaking work and 0.36 m/$s^2$(z axis) for excavating work. Vibration levels during breaking work exceed the health guidance caution zone and this means that the drivers are exposed to potential health risks. Average daily noise exposure level was 86.4 dB(A) for breaking work and 84.6 dB(A) for excavating work.

At a lower supply voltage, voltage-mode drivers draw less current than current-mode drivers. In this paper, we newly propose a voltage-mode driver with an additional current path that reduces the output voltage swing without the need for complicated additional circuitry, compared to conventional voltage-mode drivers. The prototype driver is fabriccated in a 0.13-$^{\mu}m$ CMOS technology and used to transmit data streams at the rate of 2.5 Gb/s. Deemphasis is also implemented for the compensation of channel attenuation. With a 1.2-V supply, it dissipates 8.0 mA for a 400-mV output voltage swing.

Simulators have been used to evaluate drivers'reactions to various transportation products. Most researches, however, have been concentrated on their technical performance, thus this paper considers drivers'senses of moving on a vehicle simulator through the analysis of human sensibility ergonomics. A sensibility ergonomic method is proposed in order to improve the faithfulness of vehicle simulators. A simulator of passenger vehicle consists of such three modules as vehicle dynamics, virtual environment, and motion representation modules. To evaluate drivers'feedback, human feelings are categorized into a set verbal expressions collected and investigated to find the most appropriate ones for translational and angular accelerations of the simulator The cutoff frequency of the washout alter ill the representation module is selected as one sensibility factor Sensibility experiments were carried out to find correlation between the expressions and the cut-off frequency of the filter. This study suggests a methodology to obtain an ergonomic database which can be applied to the sensibility evaluation of dynamic simulators.

The objective of this study is to ascertain the major considerations when designing slacks for automobile drivers reflecting the elasticity of the human body posture. The scope of this study aims to find out the causes of discomfort in driving positions based on the results of a questionnaire survey and body measurements fur slacks, as well testing four types of experimental slacks for comfort and fitness when sitting on a driver's seat and in the standing position. Based on the results, a slacks design for drivers with improved comfort and fitness is suggested.

This study highlights the theme of human error of train drivers, conducting empirical analysis on the relationship between organizational culture, safety climates, safety behavior, and accident. The empirical test results based on questionnaires received from 223 train drivers working at A subway firm indicated that relationship conflict and psychological reward as the elements of organizational culture variables showed a significant positive effect on CEO philosophy, communication, and boss's leadership. And only boss's leadership showed a positive influence on safety behavior, which in turn showed a significant negative relationship with accidents.

A new third harmonic injection circuit for light-emitting diode (LED) drivers is proposed to eliminate electrolytic capacitors and thereby extend the lifetime of LED drivers. When a third harmonic current is injected to the input current of the LED driver, the required capacitance of the driver can be reduced. The proposed circuit can control an injection ratio and has simple circuitry. The synchronous third harmonic is generated by a phase locked loop (PLL), a 1/3 counter, and op-amps and applied to a power factor correction circuit. Thus, the storage capacitor can install film capacitors instead of the electrolytic capacitor. The value of storage capacitance can be reduced to 78% compared to an input power factor of 100%. The proposed circuit is applied to the 80W prototype LED driver to experimentally verify the performances.
