Pen-input displays, such as LCD tablets and tablet PCs, are already popular for its usability in CAD design, in particular. in concept design phase. We propose an intuitive B-Spline modification scheme that can be used for the CAD systems targeting for such devices. Differently from the control point based modification schemes for the B-splines, our scheme relates user pen marking to determining the final shape of the target curve and surface. This, eventually, reduces time for interacting with the shape parameters (i.e., by control points or direct manipulators), which has been regarded as an unavoidable routine tasks for design. To prove its usability, we made an experiments with selected subjects who have been working for industrial design.

Optical waveguide based on symmetric and asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer(MZI) type was designed, fabricated and measured the optical characteristics for the application of biosensor. The wavelength of the input optical signal for the device was 1550 nm. And the difference of refractive index was $0.45\;{\Delta}\%$ between core and cladding of the device. The TM(Transverse Magnetic) mode optical properties of the biosensor were analyzed with the refractive index variation of gold thin film deposited for overclad. Nowadays, nano-photonic crystal structures have been paied much attention for its high optical sensitivity. There is a technique to realize the structure, which is called Dip-Pen Nanolithography(DPN) process. The process requires a nano-scale process patterning resolution and high reliability. In this paper, two dimensional nano-photonic crystal array on the surface was proposed for improving the sensitivity of optical biosensor. And the Dip-Pen Nanolithogrphy process was investigated to realize it.

It is a recent trend to utilize a variety of visual tools(process map, mindmap, ERD) to create, when we create the design of information system or business models. Theses visual tool is standardized tools as process map or BPMN, on the other hand, there is also a non-standardized tools as mindmap. The utilization of the non-standardized tools as mindmap in startups is a increasing trend, because of the order the release of creative thinking to design new business model. Mindmaps can be divided into pen-based mindmap(of hand-written) and computer-based mindmap. This study was conducted under the premise of a different thinking pattern, when you take advantage of pen-based mindmap and computer-based mindmap. In other words, the pen-based mindmap is a tool for deductive reasoning and the computer-based mindmap is a tool would be more appropriate for inductive thinking. The purpose of this study is to investigate these relationships through experiments. In this study propose guidelines how visual tools, when designing a social media business models.

Writing instruments or pens have many features not commonly found in other products in terms of their structure and characteristics of use. That is, different pens are usually composed of almost identical parts and/or structure. The fact they work always grabbed in hands considered, the ergonomic design of pens is essential. Reports indicate consumers evaluate pens in writing comfort above all other factors when they select pens. Among various factors related to writing comfort, it shouldspecifically be the ergonomic improvements that design can effectively contribute to. Studies on the pen-grabbing comfort or on approaches based on the understanding of human-work relationships generally lack when compared with fashion-conscious aesthetic approaches to pen design. This paper, therefore, aims to reestablish the ergonomic design criteria including the necessities of specifications required to provide indispensable data for the pen design processes. Consequently, it should produce basic set of information for systematic approach to pen design and development, which is commonly called'concurrent engineering'. Also a cost-effective solution for product diversification strategy could be attributed to a modular system database based on the result of this attempt.

To produce accurate editing results, the ambiguity of editing scopes related to marked correction signs should be solved. Proofreading the web document modifies the document structures, and the modified structures should be robustly valid for the defined DTD. This paper presents a pen-based proof-reading interface in the XML document. In the proposed interface, correction signs are free-drawn, and the editing scopes are recognized and revised based on the contexts of the document to minimize the ambiguity of the editing scopes. The proposed interface provides both implicit and explicit modification methods for document structures. As a result, the editing scopes processed in the proposed interface are more accurate, and the document structures are maintained valid for DTD after the editing.

The purpose of this paper is a design and implementation for korean character and pen-gesture recognition system in multimedia terminal, PDA and etc, which demand both a fast process and a high recognition rate. To recognize writing-types which are written by various users, the korean character recognition system uses a database which is based on the characteristic information of korean and the stroke information Which composes a phoneme, etc. In addition. it has a fast speed by the phoneme segmentation which uses the successive process or the backtracking process. The pen-gesture recognition system is performed by a matching process between the classification features extracted from an input pen-gesture and the classification features of 15 pen-gestures types defined in the gesture model. The classification feature is using the insensitive stroke information. i.e., the positional relation between two strokes. the crossing number, the direction transition, the direction vector, the number of direction code. and the distance ratio between starting and ending point in each stroke. In the experiment, we acquired a high recognition rate and a fart speed.

We report a new direct patterning method, called liquid bridge-mediated nanotransfer molding (LB-nTM), for the formation of two- or three-dimensional structures with feature sizes between tens of nanometers and tens of micron over large areas. LB-nTM is based on the direct transfer of various materials from a mold to a substrate via a liquid bridge between them. This procedure can be adopted for automated direct printing machines that generate patterns of functional materials with a wide range of feature sizes on diverse substrates. Arrays of TIPS-PEN TFTs were fabricated on 4" polyethersulfone (PES) substrates by LB-nTM using PDMS molds. An inverted staggered structure was employed in the TFT device fabrication. A 150 nm-thick indium-tin oxide (ITO) gate electrode and a 200 nm-thick SiO2dielectric layer were formed on a PES substrate by sputter deposition. An array of TIPS-PEN patterns (thickness: 60 nm) as active channel layers was fabricated on the substrate by LB-nTM. The nominal channel length of the TIPS-PEN TFT was 10 mm, while the channel width was 135 mm. Finally, the source and drain electrodes of 200 nm-thick Ag were defined on the substrate by LB-nTM. The TIPS-PEN TFTs can endure strenuous bending and are also transparent in the visible range, and therefore potentially useful for flexible and invisible electronics.

Microneedles (MNs) are being developed to overcome the limitations of the conventional hypodermic needle, e.g. the injection pain. In this study, we conducted an analysis of clinical pain and bleeding at the site of MN insertion and evaluated the insulin pharmacodynamic profile compared with parameters obtained with a conventional pen needle. MN insertion into the skin of 25 healthy adults or 15 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) revealed significantly less pain relative to a conventional hypodermic pen needle, thus reducing pain scores from $2.1{\pm}1.9$ to $21.3{\pm}1.4$ ($mean{\pm}standard$ deviation [SD]). Besides, no bleeding was observed when the MN was used. In the insulin pharmacodynamic assay, no significant differences were observed in the blood glucose-lowering effect between the pen needle and MN. Based on these results, the MN is expected to be a good substitute for conventional hypodermic pen needles and improve the quality of life of patients by significantly reducing the pain associated with insulin treatment.

In this paper, we deal with the coordinate estimate algorithm of the wired tablet device. In order to got the position of the electric pen on the tablet, electromagnetic induction effect is used. Most electric tablets have used the electromagnetic induction effect. Tracking the position of the pen on a tablet that is directly related with the performance of the device is very important. In this research, a new real time coordinate estimate algorithm is introduced. To estimate the position of the pen, the electromagnetic induced signals og the wired tablet are used.
