This is a case report of a photo-electric single station alarm for residential fire prevention. The detector was developed for the certification in Japanese market which is more than 100 times bigger than Korean market. A comparison and review for test standard owned by KFI (Korea Institute of Fire Industry & Technology) and JFEII (Japan Fire Equipment Inspection Institute) respectively is also conducted. The detector alarms with a buzzer and an indicating LED. Operating period and time in alarm, low battery and fire situation is stated. The electronics circuit part to reduce its current and the detector's characteristics are described. It is explained that the measured current and experimental result of the battery discharge can meet the 10 years operation.

This paper introduces the mold technology for the development of ultra-compact package of less than 1mm, and also analyze the error pattern of the results using this mold technology. The existing ultra-small mold structure was one-piece, which caused the surface of EDM to be rough and increase the error rate. This has been an obstacle to further reducing the size of the mold. On the other hand, the proposed mold technology tries to overcome the limitation of the one-piece type by using the prefabricated type method. This paper also classify defect patterns in the results of the proposed mold structure and analyze the occurrence probability of each pattern to use as a basic data to develop a detector.

This paper presents a miniaturized electromagnetic wave detector. The dimension is reduced down to $31{\times}18{\times}13.5mm^3$ by using common OP-AMPs for amplification and oscillation. The strength from wave radiators is indicated by a color LED; green, orange and red colors mean the low, the middle and the high level, respectively. An alarm bell rings as the wave strength becomes above high level. The detector uses 3V battery. The detector could be used for a cellular phone decoration, a necklace pendant and a key holder.

LED is just a semiconductor which can produce light. Currently, there are active research works on LED lighting technologies according to the growth of energy-saving environmental industry. Especially, LED communication is one of the active research works in these fields. In this paper, we design a LED communication-based PC-PC transmission system. A transmission circuit system(transmitter) using LED and a receiving circuit system(receiver) using PD(photo detector) and Op-amp are designed, respectively. The experiments for the designed system are performed as follows. One computer is connected at the end of transmitter and receiver, respectively, and text files are transmitted by using text transmission programming. In this experiment, we test the performance with various baud rates, LED colors, transmission ranges.

LCD panel need BLU(Back Light Unit) that is outside source of light because can not emit light voluntarily. BLU is used in LCD module and is used in tester that examine LCD panel's badness. Lately, BLU had changed from CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) to LED(Light-Emitting Diode) fast. CCFL need extra-high tension power and produce much heat and is difficult to keep fixed brightness. LED is few electric power wastage and keeps fixed brightness. But, BLU that is used to detector that examine the LCD module is using CCFL until recently. This paper develops LED BLU that can examine LCD panel's badness. Also, this manufactures LED BLU to 24 inch size to examine all LCD panels(12~24 inch), and develops so that LED BLU may operate according to LCD panel's size.

In this paper, we used optoelectronic feedback to generate the carrier frequency for the ASK modulation of a lighting LED. A solar cell was used for photo-detector in the feedback circuit, and the LED light was ASK modulated by controlling the ON/OFF state of the switch that is installed in the feedback loop. The oscillation frequency of the optoelectronic feedback loop was about 50 kHz and the data rate of the ASK modulation was 9.6 kbps. In experiments, the optoelectronic feedback circuit was used for the ASK modulation of a lighting LED in the transponder of a visible light identification system, and data exchange between the transponder and the reader was successfully carried out.

A lights-out detector, which helps the person in charge of maintenance make a quick judgment in the event of a failure of LED-type traffic lights, was explored/developed and installed/ tested, at Seoul Metro, after they developed a patented pilot product in 2005; and, a product improvement test was conducted to ensure reasonable maintenance of signaling facilities. Having better compatibility with existing circuit in use and displaying stable load current, the device makes the maintenance of lights-out detection and alert easier.

We tested the feasibility of measuring fat thickness using a miniaturized chip LED sensor module, testing 12 healthy female subjects. The module consisted of a single detector and four sources at four different source-detector distances (SD). A segmental curve-fitting procedure was applied, using an empirical algorithm obtained by Monte-Carlo simulation, and fat thicknesses were estimated. These thicknesses were compared to computed-tomography (CT) results; the correlation coefficient between CT and optical measurements was 0.932 for bicep sites. The mean percentage error between the two measurements was 13.12%. We conclude that fat thickness can be efficiently measured using the simple sensor module.

We describe a 32" liquid-crystal display (LCD) with multi-touch sensing capability by integrating IR detector arrays onto the LED backlight plate. A transparent light guide is placed in front of the display screen, with IR LEDs disposed at its edges and emitting IR light into the light guide, the light is trapped by total internal reflection within the light guide to be as touch-sensing light. A physical contact with the acrylic plate surface will stimulate some trapped light to be escaped from the light guide and pass through LCD panel to be detected by the IR detectors. The touch-sensing LCD with this configuration can locate simultaneous multiple touche points on the touchable surface.

In this paper, we developed an optical sheet for LED lighting with integrated $CO_2$ gas and temperature sensor which can monitor at the indoor environment. The optical sheet for LED lighting is fabricated through PMMA(Polymethyl methacrylate) injection process using mold. This research enables to fabricate the reflective sheet, light-guide plate and the prism sheet in a optical sheet. The fabricated sheet demonstrates higher intensity of optical efficiency compared with single-sided sheets. The $CO_2$ sensor was fabricated using NDIR(NON-Dispersive Infrared) method and it has $0.0235mV/V{\cdot}PPM$ sensitivity. The temperature sensor was fabricated using RTD(Resistance temperature detector) method and it has $0.563{\Omega}/^{\circ}C $sensitivity.
