This paper proposes a novel scheme of a gray scale fingerprint image for a high-accuracy capacitive sensor chip. The conventional grayscale image scheme uses a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) of a large-scale layout or charge-pump circuit with high power consumption and complexity by a global clock signal. A modified capacitive detection circuit for the charge sharing scheme is proposed, which uses a down literal circuit (DLC) with a floating-gate metal-oxide semiconductor transistor (FGMOS) based on a neuron model. The detection circuit is designed and simulated in a 3.3 V, 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard CMOS process. Because the proposed circuit does not need a comparator and peripheral circuits, the pixel layout size can be reduced and the image resolution can be improved.

Tone reproduction characteristics of color and gray have a great influence on the picture quality in visual display. In this study, we optimized tone reproduction characteristics of color and gray of CRT monitor by setting brightness to the optimum level, in which offsets for RGB channels can be assumed to zero. The optimum brightness level could be found by measuring a few tones of neutral for the combination of 2 levels of brightness and 2 levels of contrast. As the result, the relationship between normalized DAC count and normalized luminance of primary color or gray has been simply presented by gamma and result in good phosphor constancy.

In order to effectively utilize marine processing by-product such as fish scale, chemical compositions for the scale were analyzed. The selected fishes were gray mullet, Mugil cephalus, living in the sea and carp, Cyprinus carpio in the fresh water, having a lot of scales among the fishes living in seawater and fresh water. And we also investigated the difference in the chemical compositions between gray mullet and carp, depending on both living circumstances. The major components of the scales were found to be crude ash and crude protein which were each about 49% for gray mullet and which were about 20% and 79% for carp, respectively, on the basis of dried scales. The proteins extracted from both scales proved to be collagen through amino acid compositions and SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic patterm. Also this scale collagen was assumed to by Type I collagen because the migration rate of $\alpha$1 and $\alpha$2 subunit of the collagen were almost the same those as calf skin Type I collagen. Most of proteins from gray mullet was collagen, however, the collagen content in proteins from carp was estimated to be only about 53%, on the basis of the ratio of hydroxyproline to protein. The crude ashes of both scales identified to be hydroxyapatite through element compositions and X-ray diffraction analysis. In conclusion, both fishes in different living circumstances were almost similar to in the chemical compositions but chemical contents for crude ash and crude protein.

We have developed a pixel structure for reflective color TFT-LCD which can display 27-color in still-image. The proposed pixel can display 3 gray scale in still image; white, black and median gray. This paper shows the concept and the driving method of the proposed pixel. Finally this paper compares power consumption and area with the Toshiba's DMOG technology.

The purpose of the thermal imaging observation device mounted on the K's tank in the Republic of Korea military is to convert infrared rays into visual information to provide information about the environment under conditions of restricted visibility. Among the various performance indicators of thermal observation devices, such as the view, magnification, resolution, MTF, NETD, and Minimum Resolvable Temperature Difference (MRTD), the MRTD is the most important, because it can indicate both the spatial frequency and temperature resolvable. However, the standard method of measuring the MRTD in NATO contains many subjective factors. As the measurement result can vary depending on subjective factors such as the human eye, metal condition and measurement conditions, the MRTD obtained is not stable. In this study, these qualitative MRTD measurement systems are converted into quantitative indicators based on a gray scale using imaging processing. By converting the average of the gray scale differences of the black and white images into the MRTD, the mean values can be used to determine whether the performance requirements required by the defense specification are met. The (mean) value can also be used to discriminate between detection, recognition and identification and the detectable distance of the thermal equipment can be analyzed under various environmental conditions, such as altostratus, heavy rain and fog.

In this paper, this program which is Retrieval System using Image Gray-scale histogram and Edge features is used to reduce the errors incurred by inputting methods which are used in a current Retrieval System. The Retrieval Algorithm is proceeding with several steps which are extracting features of images quality, extracting edge features and refining images, analysing extracted features, retaining important information from analyzed features, retrieving retained information from database, extracting and comparing among images from retrieved database. The proposed Retrieval System is used for a fast retrieval with accuracy and it is confirmed through simulations.

This paper proposes a digital algorithm for gray-scale/color image segmentation of real-time video signals and a cell-network-based implementation architecture in state-of-the-art CMOS technology. Through extrapolation of design and simulation results we predict that about 300$\times$300 pixels can be integrated on a chip at 100nm CMOS technology, realizing very high-speed segmentation at about 1600sec per color image. Consequently real-time color-video segmentation will become possible in near future.

We have developed a multi-domain vertically aligned liquid crystal display (MVA-LCD) that produces natural gray-scale images even at high viewing angles. We divided each pixel into two areas and set different threshold voltages for each sub-area. A transparent electrode in a sub-area is not connected directly to the source electrodes but via the capacitance of the SiN layer. In particular, light-orange skin color appears very natural, even at a high inclination angle. The contrast ratio is over 500 in the normal direction and over 10 from any viewing angle.

The paper presents a fuzzy based impulse noise filter for both gray scale and color images. The proposed approach is based on the technique of boundary discriminative noise detection. The algorithm is a multi-step process comprising detection, filtering and color correction stages. The detection procedure classifies the pixels as corrupted and uncorrupted by computing decision boundaries, which are fuzzified to improve the outputs obtained. In the case of color images, a correction term is added by examining the interactions between the color components for further improvement. Quantitative and qualitative analysis, performed on standard gray scale and color image, shows improved performance of the proposed technique over existing state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and color difference metrics. The analysis proves the applicability of the proposed algorithm to random valued impulse noise.

Naphthoquinone-1,2-diazide-5-sulfonyl [NDS]derivatives members of Quinone diazide compound that are utilizable as photoresist for printing plate were synthesized, and photoresist were prepared by mixing these derivatives with a matrix resin(PF, CF) at various weight ratios. Photosensitive characteristics of photoresist were studied by Gray scale method, and SEM to analyze if they can be used as photosensitive material in a printing plate. Experimental results showed using IR, UV, NDS derivatives were photoconverted and developer-soluble photoresist were produced. Photoresist in the mixing ratio of 1:4 of NDS[II] and CF resin gave rise to the highest dissolution rate. In addition, photoresist obtained at this condition resulted in the most superior sensitivity.
