This paper represents the design of 3D endoscopic image processing system in order to Improve visualization and enhance the ability of the surgeon to perform delicate endoscopic surgery. The proposed 3D systems have four features of stereo endoscopic image processing The multiplexer give field seauential stereo for recording and for aligning cameras and viewing stereo with 3D monitor. Demultiplexing of the field sequential image which separates out the R and L images for dual TFT-LCD 3D monitor viewed with passive polarized glasses. separable processing of the left and right eye images, and design of TFT-LCD 3D monitor. The viewing angle, zone, and image quality of the Polarization-type Stereoscopic Display (SM500TFT-3D) system which we have developed using 15 Samsung TFT-1.CD with a screen resolution of 1024×768 pixels were measured and compared with those of Electric Shutter-type Stereoscopic Display system. The result of experiments shows that the Polarization-type Stereoscopic Display System using TFT-LCD has a wade viewing angle and zone which Is necessary fort multi-view and it has better image quality and stability of the optical performances than the Electric Shutter-type does.

A Remote Vital Sign Monitor is an in-home healthcare system designed to wirelessly monitor core-body temperature. The Remote Vital Sign Monitor provides accuracy and features which are comparable to hospital equipment while minimizing cost with ease-of-use. It has two parts, a bandage and a monitor. The bandage and the monitor both use the Chipcon2430(CC2430) which contains an integrated 2.4GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum radio. The CC2430 allows Remote Vital Sign Monitor to operate at over a 100-foot indoor radius. A simple user interface allows the user to set an upper temperature and a lower temperature that is monitored with respect to the core-body temperature. If the core-body temperature exceeds the one of two defined temperatures, the alarm will sound. The alarm is powered by a low-voltage audio amplifier circuit which is connected to a speaker. In order to accurately calculate the core-body temperature, the Remote Vital Sign Monitor must utilize an accurate temperature sensing device. The thermistor selected from GE Sensing satisfies the need for a sensitive and accurate temperature reading. The LCD monitor has a screen size that measures 64.5mm long by 16.4mm wide and also contains back light, and this should allow the user to clearly view the monitor from at least 3 feet away in both light and dark situations.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare and analyze the accommodative system (accommodative response and accommodative lag) according to the material and font size of near visual media that we often encounter in daily life. Methods: Forty adult men and women aged 20 to 30 who not had specific ocular diseases and refractive surgery experience were examined to measure and compare the accommodative response according to the material of near visual media (print paper, newspaper, magazine, the I-Phone, LCD monitor) and font size (6, 8, 10, 12) by using both eyes open-view auto-refractometer. Results: The accommodative stimulus was $2.28{\pm}0.11D$ and the accommodative response was $1.66{\pm}0.30D$. The accommodative lag namely the difference between accommodative stimulus and accommodative response was $0.62{\pm}0.28D$. The accommodative response according to material of visual media using LCD monitor was $1.35{\pm}0.26D$ (p=0.00) and using the I-Phone was $1.55{\pm}0.25D$ (p=0.04). Both of them were statistically significant lower. The accommodative lag using LCD monitor was $0.93{\pm}0.24D$ (p=0.00) and using the I-Phone was $0.73{\pm}0.25D$ (p=0.04) and they were statistically significant higher. The accommodative response and accommodative lag according to font size were not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusions: During near working, the accommodative system was more affected by material than font size of visual media. Especially, visual media of non-luminous material (print paper, newspaper, magazine) are considered fewer burdens on eyes than luminous material (I-Phone, LCD monitor) in terms of accommodative system.

최근 전자통신기기의 급속화된 발전과 함께 전자부품에 대한 초소형화, 고성능화가 요구되고 있다. 특히 노트북 컴퓨터나, PDA, LCD 모니터와 같이 박막 액정 표시장치(Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display, TFT-LCD)가 대표적인 예라 볼 수 있다. 이러한 박막 액정 표시장치는 그 내부에 냉음극 형광램프(Cold Cathode Fluroscent Lamp)가 있어서 백라이트의 역할을 하는데 냉음극 형광램프의 특성상 초기 고압의 구동전압을 인가시킬 수 있는 인버터가 필수적이라 하겠다. 본 논문에서는 18인치(4_CCFL), 20인치(6_CCFL) TFT-LCD 모니터용, 멀티램프 구동 인버터를 설계 제작하여 90%에 가까운 효율을 얻었다. 코일손실 및 전자유도의 장애가 없고 불연성의 장점을 가지고, 소형화가 가능한 적층형 압전 변압기를 제작하고 이 제작된 적층형 압전 변압기의 전기적 특성분석을 통한 방전램프 구동용 인버터의 승압용 변압기로써 적용이 가능함을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a radio-telemetry patient monitor. which is used for intensive cal?e units. emergency and surgical operation rooms to monitor continuously patients' vital signs. The radio-telemetry patient monitor consists of a vital sign acquisition unit. wireless data transmission units and a vital sign-monitoring unit. The vital sign acquisition unit amplifies biological signals, performs analog signal to serial digital data conversion using the one chip micro-controller. The converted digital data is modulated FSK in UHF band using low output power and transmitted to a remote site in door. In comparison with analog modulation. FSK has major advantages to improve performance with respect to noise resistance with fower error and the potential ability to process and Improve quality of the received data. The vital sign-monitoring unit consists of the receiver to demodulate the modulated digital data, the LCD monitor to display vital signs continuously and the thermal head printer to record a signal.

FRC(Frame Rate Control) has been applied to the monitor and TV product as part of cost-saving in many flat panel display manufacturers. As FRC can represent the same number of gray scale level with bits of a smaller amount than bits of the input image data, it is widely used. However, FRC causes visual artifacts by using repeatedly pre-designed the FRC unit size of block pattern in display devices. Therefore, this paper analyzes the cause of the visual artifacts. And in order to improve them, it proposed the pattern arrangement of FRC unit blocks through frame rolling method as analytic solution for the first time. So, we could embody causes of FRC noise. Using the proposed structure, more robust pattern to FRC noise will be designed.

In the TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display) panel manufacturing industry, SAMSUNG, a late entry, can catch up to leading first mover, SHARP. The changes the note, monitor, TV, and mobile markets in the TFT-LCD industry were studied using a system analysis method. In addition, the fast response time technology in SAMSUNG TFT-LCD technology was developed using the TRIZ method. For example, a new liquid crystal mixture of a wide view angle and fast response time were developed by doping a new high birefringence liquid crystal material in a base mixture using the contradiction method and su-field method of TRIZ. The response time of a new liquid crystal mixture was improved to approximately 60%(16.2ms with base LC mixture, 9.8ms with a new LC mixture).

Increased investment costs for larger substrate factories require breakthrough efficiencies and the capture of price premiums. Otherwise, their profit indicators will fall below those of prior plant investments. Market factors inhibit the continued expansion of monitor size and resolution, so a television market must be developed if substrate size increases will remain profitable, long term.

In this paper. we present a new method for monitoring of ECU's self diagnostic signals of vehicle without wire. In order to measure the ECU's self diagnostic signals, the interfaced circuit is designed to communicate ECU and designed terminal according to the IOS, SAE regulation of communication protocol standard. Micro-processor 80C196KC is used for communicating ECU's self diagnositc signals and the results are sent to the wireless terminal and PC monitoring system. Wireless terminal is also developed by 80C196KC, LCD, RF module, and keypad. The command from the keypad is sent to ECU through RF module and the result show on the Graphic LCD in real time. Software on PC is developed to monitor the ECU's self diagnostic signals using the Visual C++ complier in which RS232 port is programmed by half duplex method. The algorithms for measuring the ECU's self diagnostic signals are verified to monitor both ECU and portable terminal state. At the same time, the information to fix the vehicle's problem can be shown on the developed software. The possibility for remote measurement of ECU self diagnostic signal is verified through the developed systems and algorithms.
