In this paper, an hybrid automatic focusing method has been proposed for speedy and reliable measurement and inspection in industry. It can improve reliability of focusing position by using not a focusing measure but the hybrid one that is incorporated with sobel operator and auto-correlation. Also, it can not only reduce control time of focusing position using adaptive step size, but also improve accuracy of focusing position by gaussian interpolation. Its performance is verified by experiments. It is expected that it can apply to optical system for measurement and inspection in industry fields.

In recent years, owing to the development of the image processing technology, the research to build control system using a vision sensor is stimulated. However, the time delay must be considered, because it works of time to get the result of an image processing in the system. It can be seen as an obstacle factor to real-time control. In this paper, using the pattern matching technique, the location of two objects is recognized from one image which was acquired by a camera. And it is implemented to a position control system as feedback data. Also, a possibility was shown to overcome a problem of time delay using PID controller. A number of experiments were done to show the validity of this study.

As semiconductor processes require several nanometers precision, the importance of motor control is increasing in semiconductor equipment. Due to unpredictable uncertainties such as friction and mechanical vibrations achieving precise position control in semiconductor processes is challenging. The internal model principle-based controller is a control technique that ensures robust steady-state performance by incorporating a model of the reference and disturbance. The disturbance observer-based controller is a prominent robust control technique implemented to cope with various nonlinearities and uncertainties. Provided that the two controllers can be designed to exhibit equivalent performance under certain conditions, this paper demonstrates through experiments that they yield identical results for the case of a BLDC position control problem. The experimental results also indicate that they can offer enhanced robustness compared with the conventional PID controller in the presence of a time-varying disturbance.

CRTs have been in the mainstream of displays for over 100 years since K. F. Brown invented the first tube in 1897. The position of CRTs, however, has come to be threatened by flat panel displays, whose performances are notably improved these days. The keys to survival of CRTs as leading displays are examined in this report.

The characteristics of the sustain-driving circuit were examined in this paper. The sustain-driving circuit is in charge of the most important part of PDP driving because it manages most of the power consumption in the PDP. A couple of gatedriving circuits for the sustain-driving circuit were introduced in this paper, and a new driving circuit was also proposed. This new circuit is more cost-effective and has a simpler PCB layout compared to the conventional one. Some additional driving advantages were noted as well.

Recently, Note PCs have being widely used due to their features such as good mobility and low power consumption. In order to ensure the current market position, further improvement is required. Especially, the lower operating voltage is essential for the long operating time of Note PCs. For the achievement of lower operating voltage, possible contributions from LC materials side are to lower the viscosity and to increase the dielectric constant without sacrificing the reliability. In order to achieve lower driving voltage, new LC mixtures have been developed, optimizing theirs physical properties.

In this research, a cockpit display system using 3 dimensional geographic information was developed. A coordinate transformation method from WGS84 to TM was first studied. Octree data structure was used for efficient 2D and 3D graphic display. Also, a 3D graphic engine was developed for fast display with large amount of geographic data which can be practically used in aircraft onboard computer having low performance. This 3D engine contains additional function such as geographic and object information loading, many kinds of camera mode, aircraft position and rotation control function, character strip display. In the future research, actual GPS signal should be used and additional information that can help pilot's decision should be display.

The conning display which is located in the ship bridge shows the various important information such as ship position, ship speed, track data, rate of turn, thruster rpm so on, and is one of the IBSs(Integrated Bridge Systems). In this study, the survey was conducted for ten officers to find the importance and using frequency of the information which were displayed in the conning display. The results showed that the information of drift speed, ship speed, wind direction and wind force, rate of turn, sea water depth, ship position, heading, thrust rpm, alarm, rudder command and angle got high scores and it meant that these information were very important and high frequency of use during the navigation. The optimized contents arrangement in conning display was suggested based on importance and using frequency of information. The experiment using eye-tracking system was conducted to compare the performance time and error rate of nine different scenarios for suggested arrangement display and three other existing displays. The results showed that the suggested arrangement was the best in performance time and error rate. The scenario concerning the direction and speed of wind showed faster performance time and lower error rate than other scenarios. The movement of subject's eye tended to search from the center and to avoid the comer, called 'the comer effect.' It is expected that the results of this study could help for the bridge staff to grasp the sailing information easily and to cope with the given situations promptly.

Beam projector is popularly used for presentation. In order to pay attention to local area of the beam projector display, a laser pointer is used together with a pointing device(Mouse). Simple wireless presenter has limited functions of a pointing device such as "go to next slide" or "back to previous slide" in a specific application(Microsoft PowerPoint) through wireless channel; thus, there is inconvenience to do other tasks e.g., program execution, maximize/minimize window etc. provided by clicking mouse buttons. The main objective of this paper is to implement a multi-functional laser-pointer mouse that has the same functions of a computer mouse. In order to get position of laser spot in the projector display, an image processing to extract the laser spot in the camera image is required. In addition, we propose a transformation of the spot position into computer display coordinates to execute mouse functions on computer display.

In this paper, in order to solve the problems of a narrow viewing angle and the flip effect in a three-dimensional (3D) integral imaging display, we propose an improved system by using an eye tracking method based on the Kinect sensor. In the proposed method, we introduce two types of calibration processes. First process is to perform the calibration between two cameras within Kinect sensor to collect specific 3D information. Second process is to use a space calibration for the coordinate conversion between the Kinect sensor and the coordinate system of the display panel. Our calibration processes can provide the improved performance of estimation for 3D position of the observer's eyes and generate elemental images in real-time speed based on the estimated position. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we implement an integral imaging display system using the eye tracking process based on our calibration processes and carry out the preliminary experiments by measuring the viewing angle and flipping effect for the reconstructed 3D images. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method extended the viewing angles and removed the flipping images compared with the conventional system.
