This study showed the possibility of the medical treatment by thermal feedback as the laser medical treatment had given by design of the digital I/O interfaces of the electronic shutter to control the laser beam and the temperature controlled algorithm. The electronic shutter is economical and that is designed to be automatically controlled within the range of an extent temperature by such development of its driving interfaces and the controlled algorithm of the electronic shutter. The possibility of local therapy for the patients by the treatment of the laser beam within an extent temperature controlled, is proposed by improvement of the problems on the current treatment methods such as radiotherapy, high frequency treatment or medical therapy of drug stuffs which even kill the normal cells.

We propose a BASK (Binary Amplitude Shift Keying) system for Giga-bit Modem in millimeter band. The proposed system consists of a high speed shutter of the transmitter and a repeater of the receiver. The shutter of the proposed system is introduced for pulse shaping to improve the intersymbol interference (ISI). The repeater consists of several stage converters. A converter is constructed with a low pass filter and a limiter. The repeater can improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and make the rectangular pulse train. The proposed system is a simple system that uses conversion method without IF (Intermediate Frequency) process.

Rolling shutter operation of CMOS cameras can be utilized in optical camera communications in order to transmit data from an LED to mobile devices such as smart-phones. From temporally modulated light, a spatial flicker pattern is obtained in the captured image, and this is used for signal recovery. Due to the degradation of rolling shutter images caused by light smear, motion blur, and focus blur, the conventional decoding schemes for rolling shutter cameras based on the pattern width for 'OFF' and 'ON' cannot guarantee robust communications performance for practical uses. Aside from conventional techniques, such as polynomial fitting, histogram equalization can be used for blurry light mitigation, but it requires additional computation abilities resulting in burdens on mobile devices. This paper proposes a transition-based decoding scheme for rolling shutter cameras in order to offer simple and robust data decoding in the presence of image degradation. Based on the designed synchronization pulse and modulated data symbols according to the LED dimming level, the decoding process is conducted by observing the transition patterns of two sequential symbol pulses. For this, the extended symbol pulse caused by consecutive symbol pulses with the same level determines whether the second pulse should be included for the next bit decoding or not. The proposed method simply identifies the transition patterns of sequential symbol pulses other than the pattern width of 'OFF' and 'ON' for data decoding, and thus, it is simpler and more accurate. Experimental results ensured that the transition-based decoding scheme is robust even in the presence of blurry lights in the captured image at various dimming levels

3D stereoscopic display is becoming increasingly common. Most stereoscopic displays still require the viewers to wear 3D glasses to watch 3D contents. As it is widely known, especially in shutter glass method, 3D glasses normally cause to reduce the perceived colorfulness and sharpness considerably as well as brightness. In this paper, we have estimated and analyzed the degradation of perceptual brightness in 3D images viewed through the shutter glasses by using CIECAM02 model. This study focuses on loss of colorfulness and sharpness when PDP-TV is watched at 3D mode in shutter-glass type 3D-TV. We analyze perceptual colorfulness and sharpness of 3D display with glasses and propose a method to compensate 3D colorfulness and sharpness for the best 3D experience.

A CMOS active pixel sensor has been designed and fabricated using standard 2-poly and 4-metal $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS processing technology. The CMOS active pixel sensor has been made up of a unit pixel having a highly sensitive PMOSFET photo-detector and electronic shutters that can control the light exposure time to the PMOSFET photo-detector, correlated-double sampling (CDS) circuits, and an 8-bit two-step flash analog to digital converter (ADC) for digital output. This sensor can obtain a stable photo signal in a wide range of light intensity. It can be realized with a special function of an electronic shutter which controls the light exposure-time in the pixel. Moreover, this sensor had obtained the digital output using an embedded ADC for the system integration. The designed and fabricated image sensor has been implemented as a $128{\times}128$ pixel array. The area of the unit pixel is $7.60{\mu}m{\times}7.85{\mu}m$ and its fill factor is about 35 %.

In this paper, an improved AE system for digital still camera is proposed. AE system is auto exposure system to maintain optimized brightness of output image. But there is limitation for mobile devices to get high quality image with the conventional AE algorithm, because of organizational restriction of system. The conventional research has been studied only electronic shutter and AGC on the AE algorithm. In this paper, we suggest new AE algorithm included target setting, frame delay, Gamma Correction as well as electronic shutter and AGC to get high quality image. The proposed algorithm show improved result at control speed and ability of luminance expression.

This paper represents the design of 3D endoscopic video system in order to improve visualization and enhance the ability of the surgeon to perform delicate endoscopic surgery. In comparison of the polarized and electric shutter-type stereo imaging system, The former is superior in terms of accuracy and performance speed for knot-tying and loop pass test. The result of experiments show that the proposed 3D endoscopy system has a wide viewing angle and zone which is necessary for multi-view and it has better image quality and stability of the optical performances than the electric shutter-type does.
