We proposed dual mode pixel circuit in AMOLED (active matrix organic light emitting device). After light emitting period of OLED, we used it as a photo sensor. We measured photo current of OLED and simulated the proposed pixel circuit to verify it's function of dual mode, that is lighting and sensing.

Optical scanning holography (OSH) is a distinct digital holographic technique in that real-time holographic recording a three-dimensional (3-D) object can be acquired by using two-dimensional active optical heterodyne scanning. Applications of the technique so far have included optical scanning cryptography, optical scanning microscopy, 3-D pattern recognition, 3-D holographic TV, and 3-D optical remote sensing. This paper reviews some of the recent progress in OSH. Some possible further works are also discussed.

In image processing and robotic applications, two-dimensional (2D) black and white patterned planar markers are widely used. However, these markers are not detectable in low visibility environment and they are not changeable. This research proposes an active and adaptive marker node, which displays 2D marker patterns using light emitting diode (LED) arrays for easier recognition in the foggy or turbid underwater environments. Because each node is made to blink at a different frequency, active LED marker nodes were distinguishable from each other from a long distance without increasing the size of the marker. We expect that the proposed system can be used in various harsh conditions where the conventional marker systems are not applicable because of low visibility issues. The proposed system is still compatible with the conventional marker as the displayed patterns are identical.

This paper presents a novel approach for Lamb wave based structural health monitoring(SHM) in honeycomb aluminum panels. In this study, a suite of three signal processing algorithms are employed to improve the damage detection capability. The signal processing algorithms used include wavelet attenuation, correlation coefficients of power density spectra, and triangulation of reflected waves. Piezoelectric transducers are utilized as both sensors and actuators for Lamb wave propagation. These SHM algorithms are built into a MatLab interface that integrates and automates the hardware and software operations and displays the results for each algorithm to the analyst for side by side comparison. The effectiveness of each of these signal processing algorithms for SHM in honeycomb aluminum panels under a variety of damage conditions is then demonstrated.

In this paper, we describe the design and performance of UAV system toward compact and fully autonomous quadrotors, where they can complete logistics application, rescue work, inspection tour and remote sensing without external assistance systems like ground station computers, high-performance wireless communication devices or motion capture system. we propose high-speed hovering flyght height control method based on state feedback control with image information from active camera and multirate observer because we can get image of the information only every 30ms. Finally, we show the advantages of proposed method by simulations and experiments.

Rodents, specially rats, can recognize distance and shape of an object and also pattern of the textures by using their whiskers. Mechanoreceptors surrounding the root of whisker in their follicle measure deflection of the whisker. Rats can move their whisker back and forth freely. This ability, called active whisking or active sensing, is one of characteristics of rat behaviours. Many researches based on the mechanism have been progressed. In this paper, we test a simple and accurate method based on deflection of the whisker: we designed biomimetic whiskers modeling after a structure of follicle using the microphone. The microphone sensor measures a mechanical vibration. Attaching an artificial whisker beam to the microphone membrane, we can detect a vibration of whisker and this can show the deflection amount of whisker indirectly.

The MODIS Land Rapid Response System (RRS) has been developed to provide rapid access to MODIS data globally, with initial emphasis on 250 m color composite imagery and active fire data. Fire detection is based on a contextual algorithm that exploits the strong emission of mid-infrared radiation from fires. This algorithm examines each pixel of the MODIS swath, and ultimately assigns to each one of the following classes: missing data, cloud, water, non-fire, fire, or unknown. In this paper, we introduce the MODIS Rapid Response System established at the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) and present some application results for Korea using the direct broadcast data acquired at KARI ground station.

In this paper, a Single-phase Active Rectifier(SAR) with high power factor capability for inverter air-conditioner is adopted for satisfying the international standards of input current harmonics, IEC 1000-3-2. Comparing the conventional boost power factor correction circuit, one diode drop is reduced in the power flow path of the SAR circuit, so the system efficiency is improved. To apply the control IC, such as UC3854, ML4821 and so forth, to the SAR, the adequate sensing circuits are proposed. The design rules of passive components and two control loops are also presented. The prototype SAR circuit with 3㎾ power consumption is builted and tested to verify the operation of the proposed circuit.

A Single-phase Active Rectifier (SAR) [4-6] with high power factor capability is adopted to satisfy the international harmonic current standards such as IEC 1000-3-2. To minimize the input current distortion and to apply the control IC, such as FA5331, UC3854, ML4821 and so forth, the new adequate sensing circuits of the input voltage and current are proposed. There are tow methods applicable the SAR to inverter air-conditioner from the viewpoint of both efficiency and cost. The selecting methods of the passive components are presented for the two approaches. Using the determined components, the loss analyses are carried out. The prototype SAR circuits of these two approaches with 3kW power consumption are built and the operation and performance of the circuits with power factor correction capability are verified through the experimental results.

In this paper, we propose a new method for multispectral image compression that is based on highly correlated relational properly taken from a spatial image and its wavelet transform. The highly active regions, such as edges or contour, in the spatial domain are appeared as significant coefficients in the wavelet transform domain; and the low active regions like background as insignificant. These characteristics play an important role in designing the system. The simulation results have shown us that the proposed method has better performance in terms of the reconstructed image quality and the transmitted bit rakes. Practically, our system can be successfully applied to the application areas that require of progressive transmission. For some multispectral images with relatively low activity, we have obtained the more good results.
