Position controls are very important in semiconductor manufacturing devices, machine tools Precision measuring instruments, etc. To measure the distance of movement of moving objects in minute units and the accuracy of measurement for the moving distance in these devices affect the performance of the whole devices. Therefore, in those Precision instruments, a sensing device that can measure the distance of movement with high-precision resolution is required. In this paper, a novel encoder of digital and analog hybrid type is proposed. It is shown that from this experiment a high-resolution angle measurement device can be designed by a low cost incremental encoder.

This study aims to analyze stone's surface roughness measurement accuracy of a high resolution DCS 420 digital camera by digital close-range photogrammetric technique. For this purpose, the surface roughness measurement system was constructed by means of microsoft visual basic 6.0 in windows. As the analysis results of measurement accuracy of digital camera using this system, the roughness error of the normal distance between the best fitting reference surface obtained by least square method and sample points in the ideal plane or surface did not exceed $\pm$0.1 mm

In order to assure safety of both patient and operator, and to provide uniform quality radiographs, it is necessary to perform periodic calibration of diagnostic X-ray equipment. A basic parameter of diagnostic equipment's and its image sharpness is the size(and shape the energy distribution) of the focal spot as viewed along the central X-ray beam. This size determines the resolution possible with the equipment and also determines the heat characteristics of an anode. A fine focus tube gives high resolution but causes high local heating of target. In past, the pin-hole and star pattern image measurement for evaluation of resolution have been widely used, but it produced blurring and inaccuracy of image. So newly inverted Ug-meter has advantage in more convenient measurement method and less out-put bias than other image measurement. The authors intended to compare measured focal size between Ug-meter and focal spot test tool, changed state from setting to now of units.

Micro-weighing device by using null balance method is being essential part in fields of high-technology industries such as precision semiconductor industry, precision chemistry, biotechnology and genetics etc. Also, requirements for high resolution and for large measurement range increase more and more. The performance of the micro-weighing device can be determined by the mechanism design and analysis. The analytical design method has been proposed for the performance improvement such as resolution, measurement range and fast response. The 2-stage displacement amplification is designed to overcome the limit of conventional force transmitting lever. The parallel spring is designed for the measurement result independent of the input force position variation. Also, the natural frequency of mechanism is analyzed for the fast response. After each analysis, optimal design has been carried out. To verify the analysis and design result, characteristics experiments had been carried out after construction. Finally, the system had been controlled.

Magnetocardiography (MCG) is the measurement and analysis of the magnetic component of the electro-magnetic field of the human heart, usually conducted externally, using extremely sensitive devices such as a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID). MCG is a totally noninvasive method, it uses neither radiation nor ultrasonics. The magnetic activity of the heart is registered from outside the thorax. MCG has a very high sensitivity and a high spatial resolution for very a small, local myocardial current. In comparison to the electrical signals measured by an ECG, the magnetic signal does not disturb the boundaries of tissues with different electrical properties. MCG measures the myocardial function rather than describing the morphology. MCG is a relatively new technique that promises good spatial resolution and extremely high temporal resolution, thus complementing other heart activity measurement techniques such as Electrocardiography (ECG). The clinical uses of MCG are in detecting various cardiac disorders including myocardial infarction, ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular conduction defects, Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome, sudden cardiac death and fetal magnetocardiography. Magnetocardiography may be used alone or together with electrcardiography for the measurement of spontaneous or overloaded activity and for research or clinical purposes.

This paper presents new interpolation algorithm for measuring high resolution position information which is propered to nano servo control motor using analog quadrature encoder. In the past, there is a large memory and two high price A/D converter for high resolution analog quadrature encoder interpolation. but this paper show that it can make high resolution interpolate using small memory, one A/D converter and comparator. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm for high resolution position is useful.

In this paper, design and fabrication of a MSP(Multiple Scattering Points) discriminator for a simulated target measurement using a HRR(High Range Resolution) RADAR are described. The MSP discriminator is designed to provide a reference signal at the installed point on the simulated target in an outdoor test. The MSP discriminator is designed to have a remote control function that can turn the MSP discriminator on and off when the target moves to a remote location. While the MSP discriminator is off, the MSP discriminator is designed to be small enough not to spoil the target's unique RCS. The MSP discriminator consists of RF components in the Ku-band. In order to prevent spreading of the signal, a cable were added to the MSP discriminator to have an appropriate feedback loop delay considering the resolution of the RADAR. The fabricated MSP discriminator provided a reference scattering point as an RCS of approximately 1 dBsm. As a result, by using the MSP discriminator, the physical scattering points of the target were clearly identified in the measured signals with the RADAR.

To develop nuclear measurement system with characteristics including both re-configuration and multi-functions, we proposed a field programmable gate array (FPGA) technique to implement TDC which is more suitable for high energy Physics system. In TDC scheme, the timing resolution is more important than the count rates of channel. In order to manage pico-second resolution TDC, we used the delay components of FPGA, utilized the place and route (P&R) delay difference, and then got two ring oscillators. By setting P&R area constraints, we generated two precise ring oscillators with slightly different frequencies. Finally, we evaluated that the period difference of these two ring oscillators was about 60 pico-seconds, timing resolution of TDC.

Magnetic resonance velocimeter (MRV) is a powerful tool to non-invasively measure the velocity of a fluid flow in various fields ranging from medicine to engineering. However, since the demands for accurate measurement in the solid/liquid interface for cardiovascular diseases and porous media increase, the improvement of spatial resolution is required. In this study, a solenoid RF coil is developed for high spatial resolution measurement. The signal-to-noise ratio in solenoid RF coil is increased seventeen times better than that in commercial coil. Moreover, the velocity distribution of Hagen-Poiseuille flow is measured with in-plane resolution of $36{\mu}m$ by $36{\mu}m$ and the accuracy of the measured velocity is compared with theoretical distribution of the laminar flow. Flow rate calculated by MRV is estimated with the flow rate injected by syringe pump.

In this study, the Fourier-Domain optical measurement system, which use a commercial high power white LED as a light source and a CCD linear-array as a detector is realized. The proposed system shows the axial measurement range over $125{\mu}m$ and the axial resolution below $1.24{\mu}m$. This system has the advantage of the cost effective and compact structure and also the better resolution than the existing technologies, which have a resolution above a few of ${\mu}m$ and use bulky and/or expensive broadband light sources.
