The most massive galactic globular cluster, $\omega$ Cen has been observed using recently mounted WFC3/UVIS cameras of Hubble Space Telescope at both near-UV and optical bands. We present the photometry of stars in the central region of $\omega$ Cen in F225W, F275W and F336W bands. The near-UV color-magnitude diagrams and color-color diagrams of stars in $\omega$ Cen show multiple red giant branches and main sequences as already discovered in both ground-based and HST/ACS observations in the optical bands. We modelled the stellar populations of $\omega$ Cen using Yonsei Isochrone, where $\alpha$-particles and helium enhancement processes have been included properly. We compare the best-fit stellar populations obtained from the current near-UV observations to the suggested stellar population models based on optical band data. We also discuss the methodological issues arising when dealing with the near-UV observations; red-leak in near-UV filters and the huge interstellar extinction in near-UV bands compared to the optical bands and its non-linear effect in color-magnitude diagrams.

We have been making researches on 3-D displays using computer-generated holograms(CGHs). Our CGHs are binary Fresnel holograms that reconstruct point light sources and are recorded by using high resolution laser printers (image setters). We use an image setter with a resolution of 5080 dots per inch. It is possible to reconstruct CGHs with light-emitting points. As the resolution of the image setter is not so high, it is better to use a spherical wave as a reference beam. We considered the recordable points objects are restricted by the low resolution, and proposed the multiplex type hologram to reduce the number of point objects recorded in the unit area of the CGH. We proposed a method to make computer-generated color hologram which could reconstruct color point light sources, by combining RGB color filters with the stripe CGHs corresponding to each color. We considered two kinds of gradation method on our binary CGHs. In this paper, we propose a multiple reconstruction method for improving the narrow viewing field.

Denoising and reconstruction of color images are extensively studied in the field of computer vision and image processing. Especially, denoising and reconstruction of color face images are more difficult than those of natural images because of the structural characteristics of human faces as well as the subtleties of color interactions. In this paper, we propose a denoising method based on PCA reconstruction for removing complex color noise on human faces, which is not easy to remove by using vectorial color filters. The proposed method is composed of the following five steps: training of canonical eigenface space using PCA, automatic extraction of facial features using active appearance model, relishing of reconstructed color image using bilateral filter, extraction of noise regions using the variance of training data, and reconstruction using partial information of input images (except the noise regions) and blending of the reconstructed image with the original image. Experimental results show that the proposed denoising method maintains the structural characteristics of input faces, while efficiently removing complex color noise.

In the fields of electronics and displays where inkjet printing has demonstrated its capability to fabricate colorant subpixels of thin film transistor liquid crystal(TFT LCD) color filters and organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays, conducting tracks and TFTs, the production of satellite droplets is one of primary things to eliminate because they generally deteriorate the pattern quality. To understand the production mechanism of satellite droplets in this paper, driving waveforms such as monopolar and bipolar were employed and the influence of the pulse duration time were investigated in both experimental and numerical aspects.

The red color bleaching phenomena of red pepper powder by the exposure to sun light were studied on the various factors such as drying methods of pepper and the storage conditions of pepper powder, relative humidities, particle sizes, and the amounts and qualities of light. The surface color of red pepper was rapidly bleached by the successive daily exposures until the color retention value (capsanthin remained/original capsanthin content) reached to 0.5, while that of dark storge showed a negligible change. The color changes were related with the cumulative solar energy at various water activities $(a_w)$. As decreasing $a_w$ below 0.5, the bleaching reaction was highly accelerated, and thereafter was slowly progressed. Sun lights transmitted by red-, yellow- and blue-gelatin filters, respectivly, bleached in different degrees and at the shorter wavelength light, the more color bleaching occurred. From this fact a red colored package film could be effectivly used for the color preservation purpose in the red pepper storage.

The Intelligent Space(ISpace) provides challenging research fields for surveillance, human-computer interfacing, networked camera conferencing, industrial monitoring or service and training applications. ISpace is the space where many intelligent devices, such as computers and sensors, are distributed. According to the cooperation of many intelligent devices, the environment, it is very important that the system knows the location information to offer the useful services. In order to achieve these goals, we present a method for representing, tracking and human following by fusing distributed multiple vision systems in ISpace, with application to pedestrian tracking in a crowd. And the article presents the integration of color distributions into particle filtering. Particle filters provide a robust tracking framework under ambiguity conditions. We propose to track the moving objects by generating hypotheses not in the image plan but on the top-view reconstruction of the scene. Comparative results on real video sequences show the advantage of our method for multi-object tracking. Also, the method is applied to the intelligent environment and its performance is verified by the experiments.

The temperature effects of the KNU UBV photometric system are investigated, using the HAMAMATSU 1P21 data. The variation of the passband width of V-band with temperature is about $5{\AA}/^{\circ}C$ while those of B-band and U-band are negligible. This large effect of V-band causes a significant variation of V-mag. and (B-V)-color with temperature such as ${\sim}0.02mag/^{\circ}C$ in both cases. This result strongly suggests that in the photometric observations of binary stars, the temperature effects of the response of photomultiplier and the passband of filters must be considered to avoid the systematic variation in magnitude and color particularly at the minimum of light curve.

Inkjet printing technology is a highly proprietary process. We have evaluated the possibility of using inkjet technique to prepare color filters. Product specification for TV application was used as a template to examine process capability. Technical aspects of ink composition, jetting ability, and surface interaction were discussed.

In order to realize full color display, two approaches were used. The first method is the patterning of red, green, and blue emitters using a selective deposition. Another approach is based on a white-emitting diode, from which the three primary colors could be obtained by micro-patterned color filters. White-light-emitting organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) are attracting much attention recently due to potential applications such as backlights in liquid crystal displays (LCDs) or other illumination purposes. In order for the white OLEDs to be used as backlights in LCDs, the light emission should be bright and have Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of (0.33, 0.33). For obtaining white emission from OLEDs, different colours should be mixed with proper balances even though there are a few different methods for mixing colors. In this study, we will report a white organic electroluminescent device using exciton diffusion length concept.
