This paper proposed a simple method for measuring surface roughness of ground surface. Utilizing non-contact in-process measuring system using the diode laser. The measurement system is consisted of a laser unit with a diode laser and a cylindrical lens, a detecting unit with polygon mirror and CCD array sensor, and a signal processing unit with a computer and device. During operation, this measuring system can provide information on surface roughness in the measuring distance with a single sampling and simultaniously monitor the state of the grind wheel. The experimental results, showed that the Increase of the feed rate and the dressing speed an caused increase in the surface roughness and when the surface roughness is 4Rmax-10Rmax, the cutting speed is 1653m/min-1665m/min, the table speed is 0.2n1/min -0.9m/min, the dressing speed is 0.2mm/rev～0.4mm/rev, the stylus method and the in-process method can be obtained the same results. Thus, under limited working conditions, using the proposed system, the surface roughness of the ground surface during cylindrical grinding can be obtained through the in-process measurement method using the diode laser.

To interpret the perception that originates from tactile sensibility during people touch and recognize the object surfaces, this study focuses on the development of a friction model that can describe the interaction of a stylus pen sliding over the counter surfaces. In addition, the study includes several other experimental factors such as the pressure, temperature, and topology of surface, which can have an effect on the emotional user experience concerning various surfaces; this research aims to suggest a method to quantitatively evaluate the relation between these experimental parameters and emotional user experience. Accordingly, the objective of research comprises the friction characteristic technology for measurement of fine tribological behavior and a standard to quantify the emotional feedback. Existing panels or input devices that provide interaction feedback about user actions simply operate with a single frequency vibration or sound response. On the contrary, this research investigates various interaction characteristics including friction force, frequency, and surface topology synthetically. Using the developed model, which can explain the relation between the friction parameters and emotional user experience, developers can design their product in order to provide the user with expected emotional sensibility. Consequently, it can contribute to reduce the development cost about sensitivity model.

Ion-beam sputtering (IBS) was used to deposit semiconducting IZTO (indium zinc tin oxide) thin films onto heavily-doped Si substrates using a sintered ceramic target with the nominal composition In0.4Zn0.5Sn0.1O1.5, which could work as a channel layer for oxide TFT (oxide thin film transistor) devices. The crystallization behavior and electrical properties were examined for the films in terms of deposition parameters, i.e. target tilt angle and substrate temperature during deposition. The thickness uniformity of the films were examined using a stylus profilometer. The observed difference in electrical properties was not related to the degree of crystallization but to the deposition temperature which affected charge carrier concentration (n), electrical resistivity (ρ), sheet resistance (Rs), and Hall mobility (μH) values of the films.

In this study, we investigate the tribological behavior of AISI 304 stainless steel pairs under deionized water and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) water dispersion lubrication. The specimen friction and wear properties are evaluated using a reciprocating ball-on-flat tribometer. The coefficient of friction remains nearly constant throughout the test under both lubricant conditions. The wear depth of the specimens under h-BN lubrication is smaller than that under deionized water lubrication, indicating the inhibition behavior of h-BN nanolubricants on direct metal-metal contacts. Optical micrographs and stylus profilometer measurements are performed to evaluate the severity of damage caused by the sliding motion and to determine the wear morphology of the specimens, respectively. The results show that h-BN nanolubricants does not have a significant effect on the friction behavior but demonstrates reduced wear owing to their trapping effect between the sliding interfaces. Moreover, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy images of the specimens were acquired to confirm the trapping effect of h-BN between the sliding interfaces. The results also suggest that the trapped lubricants can distribute the contact pressure, reducing the wear damage caused by the metal-metal contact at the interface. In conclusion, h-BN nanolubricants have potential as an anti-wear additive for lubrication applications. Further investigation is needed to provide direct evidence of the trapping effect of h-BN nanoparticles between the sliding interfaces. These findings could lead to the development of more efficient and effective lubricants for various industrial applications.

Evaluation of clinical usefulness of current perception threshold test and vibration sense perception threshold test in diagnosing the diabetic poly-neuropathy patients is one of the diagnosis methods for diabetic poly-neuropathy. Up to the present, some diagnostic methods were used for diabetic poly neuropathy patients. For example, there are neuropathy impairment score test of lower limbs, nerve conduction test, cooling detection threshold test, heat-pain threshold test and so on. However, most of the above tests require very expensive cost and take a lot of time in test. In this paper, a new apparatus estimating vibration sense ability is introduced. For this purpose, the VCM(voice coil motor) stimulating patient's peripheral nerve and current amplifier were manufactured. Also, softwares sensing and driving the vibration detection threshold test in order to measure the quantitative vibration sensory levels in diabetic poly-neuropathy patients were developed.

The evolution of input device for computer has pretty much slowed down after the introduction of mouse as feinting input device. Even though stylus and touch screen were invented later on which provide some alternatives, all these methods were designed to have close range interaction with computer. There are not many options available for user to interact with computer from afar, which is especially needed during presentation. Therefore, in this paper, we try to fill the gap by proposing a laser pointer interaction system to allow user to give pointing input command to the computer from some distance away using only laser pointer, which is cheap and readily available. With the combination of image processing based software, we could provide mouse-like pointing interaction with computer. The proposed system works well not only in currently plane screen, but also in flexible screen by incorporating the feature of non-linear coordinate mapping algorithm in our system so that our system can support non-linear environment, such as curved and flexible wall.

An effective and precise method using a scanning white-light interferometer (SWLI) for three-dimensional surface measurements, in particular for roughness measurements, has been proposed. The measurement of a microscopically sloped area using an interferometer has limitations, due to the numerical aperture of the lens. In particular, for roughness measurements, it is challenging to obtain accurate height data for a sloped area using the interferometer, due to diffraction of the light. Owing to these optical limitations of the interferometer for roughness measurements, the Ra measurements performed using an interferometer contain errors. To overcome the limitations, we propose a method consisting of the following two steps. First, we evaluate the height data and set the invalid height area to be blank, using the characteristics of the modulus peak, which has a low peak value for signals that have low reliability in the interferogram. Next, we interpolate the blank area using the adjacent reliable area. Rubert roughness standards are used to verify the proposed method. The results obtained by the proposed method are compared to those obtained with a stylus profilometer. For the considered sinusoidal samples, Ra ranges from $0.053{\mu}m$ to $6.303{\mu}m$, and we show that the interpolation method is effective. In addition, the method can be applied to a random surface where Ra ranges from $0.011{\mu}m$ to $0.164{\mu}m$. We show that the roughness results obtained using the proposed method agree well with profilometer results. The $R^2$ values for both sinusoidal and random samples are greater than 0.995.
