Aspheric glass lens have recently been used in camera phone module because they are more effective than spherical ones. In this paper, the grinding condition of the tungsten carbide molding core has been found after applying DOE to the development of the aspheric glass lens for the 3 Megapixel and 2.5x camera-phone module. Also, the ultra precision grinding process was investigated under this condition by experiment. Re-Ir coating was applied on the ground surface of the tungsten carbide molding core. The influence of Re-Ir coating on the form accuracy and surface roughness of molding core was compared and evaluated. The form accuracy and surface roughness of the molding core were improved by application of Re-Ir coating on the surface of the tungsten carbide molding core.

This study investigated the pressing conditions in the molding of aspheric glass lenses for the mega pixel phone camera module using the DOE method. Tungsten carbide (WC; Japan, Everloy Co., 002K),which contained 0.5 w% cobalt (Co), was used to build the mold. The mold surface was ultra-precision ground and polished, and its form accuracy (PV) was 0.85um in aspheric surface. We selected four factors, pressing temperature, force and time of first step, and force of second step, respectively, as the parameters of the pressing process. in order to reduce the number of experiments, we applied fractional factorial design considering the main effects and two-way interactions. The analysis results indicate that the only two main effects, the pressing temperature and the time of pressing step 1, are available for the form accuracy (PV) of the molded lens. The analysis results indicated that the best combination of the factors for lowering the form accuracy(PV) value of molded lens was to have them at their low levels.

The transcription characteristics in the molding of aspheric glass lenses for camera phone modules have been investigated experimentally. The surface topographies of both the form and the roughness were compared between the mold and the molded lens. The molded lens showed a transcription ratio of 93.4%, which is obtained by comparing the form accuracy (PV) values of the mold and the molded lens. The transcription of the roughness topography was ascertained by bearing ratio analysis.

The compact camera assembled into Smart phone is required to have higher resolution level in non AF state than existing handsets, and it is also requested to have higher degree of accuracy, more consistent repetitiveness, and faster auto focusing speed. Algorithm based on a mechanical position of the existing actuator has been discussed. Therefore, in this thesis I suggest an improved algorithm concerning the problem of unstable resolution level in non AF state and auto focusing speed.

Optical camera communication (OCC) is an extension of Visible Light Communication. Different from traditional visible light communication, optical camera communications is an almost no additional cost technology by taking the advantage of build-in camera in devices. It was became a candidate for communication protocol for IoT. Camera module can be easy attached to IoT device, because it is small and flexible. Furthermore almost smartphone equip one or two camera for both back and font side with high quality and resolution. It can be utilized for receiving the data from LED or positioning. Actually, OCC combines illumination and communication. It can supply communication for special areas or environment where do not allow Radio frequency such as hospital, airplane etc. There are many concept and experiment be proposed. In this paper we proposed utilizing Android smart-phone camera for receiver and introduce new approach in modulation scheme for LED at transmitter. It also show how Manchester coding can be used encode bits while at the same time being successfully decoded by Android smart-phone camera. We introduce new data frame format for easy decoded and can be achieve high bit rate. This format can be easy to adapt to performance limit of Android operator or embedded system.

This significance of the infant care system has emerged due to sudden infant death during sleeping. This paper presented a design and implementation of a prototype model, which is a infant care device controlled by a smartphone using Bluetooth technology. Prototype Device Model consists of MCU(microcontroller unit), Accelerometer Sensor, Temperature Measuring Sensor, Sound Measuring Sensor, Bluetooth Module, and Camera Module. The proposed application transfers the information to the parent's smartphone and computers, such as infant's falling, crying, and fever detection. A test verified the availability of a prototype infant care system model using Bluetooth Low Energy with operating the low power driving.

In order to produce high-quality optical components, aspheric lenses have been widely applied in recent years. An aspheric lens consists of aspheric surfaces instead of spherical ones, which causes difficulty in the design process as well as the manufacturing procedure. Although injection molding is widely used to fabricate optical lenses owing to its high productivity, there remains lots of difficulty to determine appropriate mold design factors and injection molding parameters. In the injection molding fields, computer simulation has been effectively applied to analyze processes based on the shell analysis so far. Considering the geometry of optical lenses, a full-3d simulation based on solid elements has been reported as a reliable approach. The present work covers three-dimensional injection molding simulation and relevant deformation analysis of an injection molded plastic lens based on 3d solid elements. Numerical analyses have been applied to the injection molding processes of three aspheric lenses for an image sensing module of a mobile phone. The reliability of the proposed approach has been verified in comparison with the experimental results.
