In micro-stereolithography technology, fabrication conditions that include laser power, laser scan speed, laser scan pitch, and material property of photopolymer such as penetration depth and critical exposure are considered as major process variables. But the existing scan path generation methods based only on CAD model have not taken them into account, which has resulted in cross-section dimension of low accuracy. Thus, to enhance cross-section dimensional accuracy, the physical resin solidification n phenomena should be reflected in laser scan path generation and stage operating code. In this paper, multi-line experiments based on single line solidification model are performed. And the method for improving cross-section dimensional accuracy is presented, which is to apply the database based on experimental results to laser scan path generation.

Combinational automatic test pattern generators (CATPG) have already been commercialized because their algorithms are well known and practical, while sequential automatic test pattern generators(SATPG) have been regarded as impractical because they are computationally complex. A technique to use CATPG instead of SATPG for test generation of sequential circuits is proposed. Redesign of seauential circuits such as Level Sensitive Scan Design (LSSD) is inevitable to use CATPG. Various partial scan techniques has been proposed to avoid full scan such as LSSD. It ha sbeen reported that SATPG is required to use partial scan techniques. We propose a technique to use CATPG for a new partial scan technique, and propose a new CATPG algorithm for the partially scanned circuits. The partial scan technique can be another choice of design for testability because it is computationally advantageous.

A solid freeform fabrication (SFF) system using selective laser sintering (SLS) is currently recognized as a leading process and the SLS extends the applications to machinery and automobiles due to various employing materials. In order to fabricate a large part with SFF system, dual laser approach has been introduced. Since the building room is divided into two regions, each scan path for dual laser system is generated based on the single laser scan path. Scan paths for each laser have to be synchronized and consider mechanical strength against fracture at the interfaced region. This paper will address generation of single laser scan path which deals with special cases for unnecessary scan points and generation of dual laser scan path according to various divided regions to enhance mechanical strength. To evaluate the developed scan path method, the specimen will be fabricated and evaluated.

The successful implementation of Scan-to-BIM automation depends on the entire process from scanning of buildings, including indoor facilities and furniture, to generating BIM models. However, the conventional Scan-to-BIM process requires a lot of time, manpower, and cost for the manual generation of BIM models including indoor objects. To solve this problem, this study applied a Scan-to-BIM automation process using a deep learning model and parametric algorithm to an existing building, Kangwon Fire Service Academy. To improve the accuracy of the BIM model, after object data was extracted from the scan data, the data was corrected according to actual object-specific conditions. As a result, the accuracy of the BIM model created by the proposed Scan-to-BIM automation process was 91% compared to the actual area of the construction drawings. In addition, it was confirmed that the BIM objects were automatically generated for 10 object classes.

Nowadays, as the development paeiod of new products becomes even shorter, the importance of Rapid Prototyping Technology(RPT) has been rapidly increased. The major application of RPT is an early verification of product designs and quick production of prototypes for testing. Moreover, RPT is applied not only as a second tooling process such as mold making and investment casting but also as a creating some physical structure in medical field. Despite the remarkable progress of RPT, it is required to improve various problems resulting from application such as production time, accuracy and materials. This paper presents a laser scan path generation for accuracy of stereolithographicparts The methodology of laser scan path generation is discussed based on the stereolithography, The procedure of this research is as follows : 1) Input laser scanning conditions such as a laser beam diameter and a laser scanning interval, 2) Reconstruct original contours without self intersecting offset, 3) Calculate offset about reconstructed contours, 4) Calculate intersection points between horizontal or vertical lines and offset contours for internal hatch, 5) Decide laser shutter on/off points. The algorithm developed and programmed by C language is verified as an efficient method after testing a number of STL files of mechanical parts.

This study examines a non-contact laser scanning-based ultrasound system, called an angular scan pulse-echo ultrasonic propagation imager (A-PE-UPI), that uses coincided laser beams for ultrasonic sensing and generation. A laser Doppler vibrometer is used for sensing, while a diode pumped solid state (DPSS) Q-switched laser is used for generation of thermoelastic waves. A high-speed raster scanning of up to 10-kHz is achieved using a galvano-motorized mirror scanner that allows for coincided sensing and for the generation beam to perform two-dimensional scanning without causing any harm to the surface under inspection. This process allows for the visualization of longitudinal wave propagation through-the-thickness. A pulse-echo ultrasonic wave propagation imaging algorithm (PE-UWPI) is used for on-the-fly damage visualization of the structure. The presented system is very effective for high-speed, localized, non-contact, and non-destructive inspection of aerospace structures. The system is tested on an aluminum honeycomb sandwich with disbonds and a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) honeycomb sandwich with a layer overlap. Inspection is performed at a 10-kHz scanning speed that takes 16 seconds to scan a $100{\times}100mm^2$ area with a scan interval of 0.25 mm. Finally, a comparison is presented between angular-scanning and a linear-scanning-based pulse-echo UPI system. The results show that the proposed system can successfully visualize defects in the inspected specimens.

In this paper, An efficient non-scan DFT method for datapaths described in RTL is proposed. The proposed non-scan DFT method improves testability of datapaths based on hierarchical testability analysis regardless to width of the datapath. It always guarantees higher fault efficiency and faster test pattern generation time with little hardware overhead than previous methods. The experimental result shows the superiority of the proposed method of test pattern generation time, application time, and area overhead compared to the scan method.

Ortho-photos provide valuable spatial and spectral information for various Geographic Information System (GIS) and mapping applications. The absence of relief displacement and the uniform scale in ortho-photos enable interested users to measure distances, compute areas, derive geographic locations, and quantify changes. Differential rectification has traditionally been used for ortho-photo generation. However, differential rectification produces serious problems (in the form of ghost images) when dealing with large scale imagery over urban areas. To avoid these artifacts, true ortho-photo generation techniques have been devised to remove ghost images through visibility analysis and occlusion detection. So far, the Z-buffer method has been one of the most popular methods for true ortho-photo generation. However, it is quite sensitive to the relationship between the cell size of the Digital Surface Model (DSM) and the Ground Sampling Distance (GSD) of the imaging sensor. Another critical issue of true ortho-photo generation using high resolution satellite imagery is the scan line search. In other words, the perspective center corresponding to each ground point should be identified since we are dealing with a line camera. This paper introduces alternative methodology for true ortho-photo generation that circumvents the drawbacks of the Z-buffer technique and the existing scan line search methods. The experiments using real data are carried out while comparing the performance of the proposed and the existing methods through qualitative and quantitative evaluations and computational efficiency. The experimental analysis proved that the proposed method provided the best success ratio of the occlusion detection and had reasonable processing time compared to all other true ortho-photo generation methods tested in this paper.

In many applications of UAVs flying in low altitude, the steady supply of accurate height measurements is very important for the UAVs to complete their mission successfully. In order to do this, a barometer or GPS height measurements are widely used. However, because these two sensors have their limitations in the application environment, a method for fusing these two measurements to produce reference heights are required. In this paper, a reference height generation filter is designed for UAV(Unmanned Air Vehicle) applications. The barometer errors originated by the change of the atmospheric environment are modeled using random walk models, and then the errors are identified and compensated through the ZSB(zero-scan-back) filter algorithm using the GPS height measurements. The performance of the proposed filter is demonstrated by realistic simulations.
