본 논문에서는 휴대 정보기기 시스템에서 더욱 향상된 실시간 3D 그래픽 가속 능력을 갖는 SoC(System on a Chip) 구현을 위해 효과적인 T&L(Transform & Lighting) Processor 구조를 연구하였다. T&L 과정에 필요한 IP들을 설계하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 SoC Platform 기반으로 검증하였다. 설계된 T&L Processor는 24 bits 부동소수점 형식과 16 bits 고정소수점 형식을 적절하게 혼용하고 계산식의 병렬성을 최대한 활용하여 Transform 과정 연산과 Lighting 과정 연산의 지연시간을 균일하게 배분하여 Transform 과정만 처리할 때와 Lighting과 혼용으로 처리할 때 연산 속도의 차이가 없이 동작이 가능하다. 설계된 T&L Processor는 SoC 플랫폼을 이용하여 성능 측정 실험 및 검증을 하였고, Xilinx-Virtex4 FPGA에서 80 MHz의 동작 주파수를 확인하였고 초당 20M개의 정점(Vertex) 처리 성능을 확인하였다.

The management of energy resources for efficient utilization of the energy resources while reducing the system costs is a critical technical issue. Among many kinds of the energy resource management, the energy reduction for indoor lighting systems is getting much concern as a large portion of energy consumption has been made for indoor lightings. In this paper, an energy-efficient lighting control scheme for indoor lighting systems in order to reduce the energy consumption by controlling the luminous flux and the lighting direction under the illuminance constraints is proposed. With the use of the user location information for the luminaire which is closely located to the user, the proposed scheme firstly sets the light direction of the luminaire to be aligned to the user location. Then, an optimization problem to find the luminous flux of each luminaire is formulated in order to minimize the luminous flux sum of the luminaires with the constraints for the dynamic ragne of the luminous flux, and the light flux for each luminaire is determined by the solution of the problem. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the luminaire control scheme with only the luminous flux control in the evaluation of satisfaction of the required illuminance level.

해안 및 항만에 설치되는 항로표지 시설에 3색 LED를 적용하여 야간에 식별을 용이하게 하는 감성적 시각의 조명과 항만 진입등의 점멸제어 방식에 대하여 연구하였다. 항만 양측에 홍등, 백등의 항로표지를 주변의 조명과 차별화하여 식별을 쉽게 하였고, GPS에 의한 시각동기와 타이머를 통하여 항만 진입등을 좌우 및 일렬순차 점등으로 동기시키는 통합형 콘트롤러를 설계하였다. LED에 의한 AtoN(Aids to Navigation) 시설을 높이에 따른 층별 색상으로 조화시키고 감성조명으로 표현하여 항해사의 표지식별에 대한 혼란을 방지하며 야간항만의 경관을 미화시키는 효과를 얻었다. 또한 선박의 항만진입을 인도하는 메시지를 전달하는 모르스 부호 발광의 기능을 부가적으로 구현하였다. 등명기는 반영구적인 고휘도 LED로 대체되므로써 수명과 소비전력에 대한 효율성을 증대하였다.

We present the design and implementation of a unique sensing and actuation application -- the Illuminator: a sensor network-based intelligent light control system for entertainment and media production. Unlike most sensor network applications, which focus on sensing alone, a distinctive aspect of the Illuminator is that it closes the loop from light sensing to lighting control. We describe the Illuminator's design requirements, system architecture, algorithms, implementation and experimental results. The system uses the Illumimote, a multi-modal and high fidelity light sensor module well-suited for wireless sensor networks, to satisfy the high-performance light sensing requirements of entertainment and media production applications. The Illuminator system is a toolset to characterize the illumination profile of a deployed set of fixed position lights, generate desired lighting effects for moving targets (actors, scenic elements, etc.) based on user constraints expressed in a formal language, and to assist in the set up of lights to achieve the same illumination profile in multiple venues. After characterizing deployed lights, the Illuminator computes optimal light settings at run-time to achieve a user-specified actuation profile, using an optimization framework based on a genetic algorithm. Uniquely, it can use deployed sensors to incorporate changing ambient lighting conditions and moving targets into actuation. Experimental results demonstrate that the Illuminator handles various high-level user requirements and generates an optimal light actuation profile. These results suggest that the Illuminator system supports entertainment and media production applications.

In this paper, we develop an indoor localization device which embeds localization information into indoor light-emitting-diodes (LED) lighting systems. The key idea of our device is the use of the newly proposed "bit stuffing method". Through the use of stuff bits, our device is able to measure signal strengths even in transient states, which prohibits interference between lighting signals. The stuff bits also scatter the parts of the signal where the LED is turned on, thus provides quality indoor lighting. Additionally, for the indoor localization system based on RSSI and TDM to be practical, we propose methods for the control of LED lamps and compensation of received signals. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is validated through experiments with a low-cost implementation including an indoor navigation task.

This paper proposes a method to detect calibration patterns for accurate camera calibration under complicated backgrounds and uneven lighting conditions of industrial fields. Required to measure object dimensions, the preprocessing of camera calibration must be able to extract calibration points from a calibration pattern. However, industrial fields for visual inspection rarely provide the proper lighting conditions for camera calibration of a measurement system. In this paper, a probabilistic criterion is proposed to detect a local set of calibration points, which would guide the extraction of other calibration points in a cluttered background under irregular lighting conditions. If only a local part of the calibration pattern can be seen, input data can be extracted for camera calibration. In an experiment using real images, we verified that the method can be applied to camera calibration for poor quality images obtained under uneven illumination and cluttered background.

This study tested the electrical, structural, and thermal safety of LED lighting products, available on the market. Five recessed LED systems, 20 W each, and five fixed LED systems, 25 W each, were selected. Dielectric strength tests, live part electric shock protection tests, and thermal tests were conducted on the LEDs. These were key tests for user safety, according to the specification of the safety criteria for electric products, KC 60598-1, South Korea. In addition, the wiring temperature of UL1007, 60227 IEC 08, and UTP cables, was measured. The results of the study gave an in-depth examination of the safety of LED lighting systems for users.

In this paper, we measured the optical characteristics of the electrodeless fluorescent lamp system as product of the inside and outside of the country and compared the measured data. Power consumption wave of domestic 150 W is unstable than it's of Endura 150 W. Optical characteristics(luminance, luminous flux, color rendering index, efficiency, CIE chromaticity coordinate) value of the former is a little small than the latter. In conclusion, if we improve a little more quality then we must secure the superiority in competition.
