A pico-projector is a compact and mobile projector that has an infinite focus. We apply the pico-projector to a projection-type integral imaging system, which can expand the image depth to form multiple central depth planes. In a projection-type integral imaging system, the image flipping problem arises because the expanded elemental images pass through a lens array. To solve this problem, we propose the ray tracing of a pico-projector at a central depth plane and compensate the elemental image using a pixel-mapping process. Experiments to verify the proposed method are performed, and the results are presented.

Advances in mobile communications, portable computing and personal electronics have led consumers to demand large viewing area, bright, high resolution, compact and long life portable displays. Pico projectors are the latest technology to prove that big things often do come in small packages. Our goal in this paper was to implement a portable, low power, and highly adaptable miniature pico projector system. The pico projector is designed many functions of the pico projector solutions, multimedia, and T-DMB broadcasting.

Recently, as the wide spread of smart phone, pico projector which is used at the smart phone is appeared as a portable display device. In this paper, among several pico projectors, laser beam scanner module is dealt with in which laser is used as light source, and mems-mirror is used as optical panel. In this device, screen image quality is a special issue, and blur effect is a typical adverse effect to the quality of this device. So the enhancement of this blur effect has an important factor of the quality of the device. The definition of the blur and the main source of the blur are studied and the simulation results and way of improvement are also suggested.

A new SRAM pixel circuit with RESET Transistor of a LCOS display module was designed for a pico-projector application. A dual-block PWM method was also proposed to realize the field sequential color system having only one LCOS panel. 0.29 inch LCOS panel in SVGA resolution was fabricated and the proposed dual-block PWM method was tested with it. Discontinuity of brightness curve was caused due to multi-pulses and it was improved by the adoption of proper mapping table. With the proposed SRAM with RESET pixel circuit and dual-block PWM method, the test images were successfully demonstrated.

This experiment implemented a laser projection system that used the 2D MEMS scanner as the driving method for the display device. The 2D MEMS scanner, which can scan the images horizontally and vertically, was applied to drive the projection system using the interlaced scanning method. The laser was directly modulated to implement the grayscale and the images were WVGA resolution quality.

This paper proposes a new "Live Book Service" that is combined the analog contents such as paper books and digital contents with various digital multimedia elements, and this service can project the additional digital multimedia contents on the analog paper. Also, we developed a monolithic stand type system which is composed of camera and pico projector, so that it can demonstrate the proposed contents. We also devised the low computational cost algorithm in bare-hands recognition which can be used as the interface between the system and users. In addition, to recognize the bare-hands which can be used as the interface between the digital and users, we make the low cost algorithm. Therefore this can be the interaction between the system and users. As a result, our proposed system can be used as a useful tool for various e-book or u-learning fields that requires high efficiency and much immersion.

LEDs(Light Emitting Diodes) are becoming widely used and increasingly in demand. Quality inspection of the LEDs has become more important. Two-dimensional inspection systems are limited in inspection capability, so threedimensional(3-D) inspection systems are needed. In this paper, a cost-effective and simple 3-D measurement system of LED packages using phase measuring profilometry(PMP) is proposed. The proposed system uses a pico projector to project sinusoidal fringe patterns and to shift phases instead of piezocrystal. It was evaluated using extremely accurate gauge blocks, yielding excellent repeatability of about 12 um(3-sigma). 3-D measurements of various LED packages were performed to demonstrate the applicability and efficiency of the proposed system.
