The lightshelf system reduces intense illumination levels of indoor from direct sun light and reflect to lead diffused light into indoor deeply. This study aims to design acurved-lightshelf by a ray tracing method and evaluate the daylighting performance of window integrated with the curved-lightshelf by computer simulations. For this purpose, evaluation test model was designed for the experiments to validate the simulation model, and the curved-lightshelf was designed by the ray tracing method using Ecotect. After the office model was designed using 3D simulation, the average indoor illuminance, luminance and distribution of illuminance were evaluated by simulation which has a algorithm of Radiosity and Ray-Tracing method under four different cases(case1;no lightshelf, case2; Flat board, case3; tilted at $30^{\circ}$ angle, case4; the curved-lightshelf). As results, it turns out that case1 showed higher average illuminance and case4 was more uniformly distributed than case2 and case3, In addition average luminance of case1 was also lower. indicating that the curved-lightshelf would reduce the possibility of the glare, while maintaining the sufficient daylight level.

This paper presents a novel contrast enhance algorithm for images displayed with bright environment light. This algorithm is designed to preserve local contrast based on the luminance ratio of the pixel to its local surround in attention. This algorithm improves image quality of projectors in a bright room.

노면 반사특성에 관한 연구와 함께 국내에서 도로조명 설계시 적용하는 조도 휘도 환산계수에 관한 연구는, 휘도가 기준이 되는 도로 조명을 설계하는 데에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 현재 조도 휘도 환산계수를 이용하여 설계한 도로조명이 적정하게 유지되고 있는지 알아내기 위하여 실제 도로에서의 조도 및 휘도 분포를 측정하고 조도휘도 환산계수를 계산하였다.

The sawtooth skylight is an excellent daylighting concept for the uniform interior illuminance over large working areas. In computer simulation, it is difficult for an architect to get accurate daylight illuminances for the spaces where sawtooth apertures are applied. In this study, daylight prediction algorithms for sawtooth apertures are developed. The flux transfer method is applied for this study to predict daylight illuminances. The simplified equations from this study can be used effectively for preliminary prediction of daylight in sawtooth spaces.

A method to make the near and far images for a double layer 3D display system to create continuous depth illusion has been studied. The luminance ratio between the near and far images should be allocated based on the tone reproduction characteristics of the display systems.

LGE developed and demonstrated the first 60-inch full color AC plasma display panel with the 1365 ${\times}$ 768 resolution. Both Sol-gel and E-beam method have been tried for MgO layer, and photolithography has been used for electrodes and phosphor layer to fabricate a 60-inch panel. Selective Erase, Selective Write, Address Display Separate, and Address While Display driving scheme have been tested. Its luminance and contrast ratio is about $550\;cd/m^2$ and 500:1, respectively.

A negative waveform was studied to improve the driving characteristics of reset and address periods in ac PDP. Comparative experiments between negative and conventional positive waveforms were performed with 42-inch XGA PDP module. The negative waveform showed lower breakdown voltage than the conventional positive waveform in reset period. Due to its weak and stable discharge during reset period, the contrast ratio was improved by decreasing the black luminance. During address period, the discharge time-lag was measured. The formative time lag ($=T_f$) of negative waveform was improved about 22.8% than $T_f$ of conventional positive waveform.

In this paper we proposed a new electrode design to get an enhanced luminous efficiency in AC PDP. The width and shape of the TTO electrode were varied, and the electro-optical properties such as luminance, power consumption, luminous efficiency were estimated with the variation of frequency, duty ratio and applied voltage. The discharge characteristics were investigated to explain the effect of the new electrode structure on the electro-optical properties.

This paper proposes a method to drive an AC plasma display panel(PDP) with a significantly improved contrast ratio. In the proposed method, during the first sub-field of one frame, all PDP cells are reset by the ramp waveform, and during the other sub-field, only the cells turned on in the previous sub-field are reset. No light is emitted during the reset period of every sub-field except the first sub-field. For a 10-bit picture, the luminance of the dark level for the proposed method is 10 times lower than that for the conventional method, in which the ramp waveform for the reset is used in every sub-field. Accordingly, the contrast ratio for the proposed method is 10 times higher than that for the conventional method. For the 10-bit picture, the measured contrast ratio was about 3080:1 for the proposed method and about 285:1 with the conventional method, a result the contrast ratio has been increased in 10.8 times. This result shows that the proposed method can realize an image with high contrast ratio.

The improvement of luminance and luminous efficiency is the one of the most important part in AC-PDPs. To achieve high luminance and luminous efficiency, high VUV emission efficiency is needed. We measured the emission spectra of vacuum ultraviolet(VUV) rays in surface discharge AC-PDP with binary and ternary gas mixtures of Ne-Xe and He-Ne-Xe. The influence of He-Ne-Xe gas-mixture ratio on excited $Xe^{\ast}$ resonant atoms and $Xe_2$$^{\ast}$ dimers has been investigated. It is found that luminous efficiency of ternary gas mixture, He-Ne-Xe, is shown to be much higher than that of binary gas mixture of Ne-Xe.
