PURPOSE. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of different shade selection techniques and determine the matching success of crown restorations fabricated using digital shade selection techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Teeth numbers 11 and 21 were prepared on a typodont model. For the #11 tooth, six different crowns were fabricated with randomly selected colors and set as the target crowns. The following four test groups were established: Group C, where the visual shade selection was performed using the Vita 3D Master Shade Guide and the group served as the control; Group Ph, where the shade selection was performed under the guidance of dental photography; Group S, where the shade selection was performed by measuring the target tooth color using a spectrophotometer; and Group I, where the shade selection was performed by scanning the test specimens and target crowns using an intraoral scanner. Based on the test groups, 24 crowns were fabricated using different shade selection techniques. The ΔE values were calculated according to the CIEDE2000 (2:1:1) formula. The collected data were analyzed by means of a one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS. For the four test groups (Groups C, Ph, S, and I), the following mean ΔE values were obtained: 2.74, 3.62, 2.13, and 3.5, respectively. No significant differences were found among the test groups. CONCLUSION. Although there was no statistically significant difference among the shade selection techniques, Group S had relatively lower ΔE values. Moreover, according to the test results, the spectrophotometer shade selection technique may provide more successful clinical results.

ISO와 IEC가JTC1 을 만들기 이전인 1984년 'Digital Signature'를 만들기위한 과제가 시작되었다, 그후 3개의 과제로 세분되고 그중 첫번째의 과제로 본 문서가 가장 먼저 국제표준이 되었다. 1989년에 제목이 지금과 같이 바뀌었고, 1990년 DIS를 거쳐 1991년에 IS가 되었다. 1996년에 재검토될 예정이다.

Digital image analysis techniques have been developed and utilized in the field of solid mechanics and fluid mechanics to measure the deformation and velocity of a target object. The deformation measurement systems based on Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Digital Image Correlation (DIC) have been attempted in geotechnical testings (e.g., physical model tests) for observing the deformation of soils. The digital image analysis is influenced by image pattern of test materials, resolution of the used digital camera, target area, image analysis techniques, and analysis conditions. Therefore, optimal analysis conditions should be determined to obtain high quality results on soil deformations. In the present study, various influence factors on the digital image analysis were described and summarized. The optimizing procedure for high accurate results was then proposed. Finally, the applicability of the developed procedure was examined.

This paper presents BIST (Built-in self-test) techniques for detection of path delay faults in digital circuits. In the proosed BIST schemes, the shift registers make possible to concurrently generate and compact the latched test data. Therefore the test time is reduced efficiently. By reordering the elements of th shifte register based on the information of the hamming distance of each memory elements in CUt, it is possible to increase the number of path delay faults detected robustly/non-robustly. Experimental results for ISCAS'89 benchmark circuits show the efficiency of the proposed BIST techniques.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the four obturation techniques. In this study, eighty teeth were instrumented and randomly divided into 4 groups of 20 teeth each, according to the obturation techniques Group A was used with Microseal. in Group B, Thermafil. in Group C, continuous wave techniques, in Group D cold lateral condensation methods were used. After obturation, the teeth were taken a digital radiograph in mesiodistal and buccolingual directions to study the quality of the obturation.(omitted)

Recently the examples of a designing a building-lighting to which LED, a solid state Lighting, is applied are increasing in number, but the development of lighting apparatus and the techniques applied to a designing lighting apparatus frequently don't fit to a new source of light. This essay refers to the matters relevant to the techniques for designing a lighting, which are controlled with a digital technology, and the effectiveness of a "Interactive-lighting technique" which has a ductility by a sensor with developing a digital source of light module and applying it to a real designing a building-lighting . In the negative aspect that a digital technology can standardize a space for a lighting, a "Interactive-lighting Technique", which detects an analogic change of nature through a sensor and produces it, can become a new alternative one.

We describe the development of a prototype multi-channel electrical impedance tomography (EIT) system. The EIT system can be equipped with either a single-ended current source or a balanced current source. Each current source can inject current between any chosen pair of electrodes. In order to reduce the data acquisition time, we implemented multiple digital voltmeters simultaneously acquiring and demodulating voltage signals. Each voltmeter measures a differential voltage between a fixed pair of adjacent electrodes. All voltmeters are configured in a radially symmetric architecture to optimize the routing of wires and minimize cross-talks. To maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, we implemented techniques such as digital waveform generation, Howland current pump circuit with a generalized impedance converter, digital phase-sensitive demodulation, tri-axial cables with both grounded and driven shields, and others. The performance of the EIT system was evaluated in terms of common-mode rejection ratio, signal-to-noise ratio, and reciprocity error. Future design of a more innovative EIT system including battery operation, miniaturization, and wireless techniques is suggested.

Recently, the number of the use of Digital Photogrammetry is increasing, the Digital Photogrammetry is used for the acquisition of images, remote sensing and three dimension location. Especially, the three dimension location is more activated to use digital camera for the Digital Photogrammetry. The reason is that it is cheap and easy to use and also it has high confidence. Using non-metric digital camera not metric camera, in this research, to get images and apply the images to the Direct Liner Transformation which is one of the techniques in Digital Photogrammetry to get three dimensional location of a point. Ⅰ programmed the procedure with Visual C++ to get the position of points speedly and I tested possibility whether it can analyze the displacement and the existence of structure with measurement system which is structured by a inexpensive non-metric digital camera.

Recently microscale biofluid flows have been receiving large attention in various research areas. However, most conventional imaging techniques are unsatisfactory due to difficulties encountered in the visualization of microscale biological flows. Recent advances in optics and digital image processing techniques have made it possible to develop several advanced micro-PIV/PTV techniques. They can be used to get quantitative velocity field information of various biofluid flows from visualized images of tracer particles. In this paper, as new advanced micro-PIV techniques suitable for biofluid flow analysis, the basic principle and typical applications of the time-resolved micro-PIV and X-ray micro-PIV methods are explained. As a 3D velocity field measurement technique for measuring microscale flows, holographic micro-PTV method is introduced. These advanced PIV/PTV techniques can be used to reveal the basic physics of various microscale biological flows and will play an important role in visualizing veiled biofluid flow phenomena, for which conventional methods have many difficulties to analyze.
