Abstract: A light device including a substrate, and first and second light emitters spaced apart from each other, and a power source to control the first light emitter and the second light emitter, in which the first and second light emitters include a light emitting region, a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the light emitting region, and a lateral reflection layer covering a region of a side of the light emitting region and the wavelength conversion layer, the first light emitter and the second light emitter are configured to output the same or different magnitudes of power by receiving the same or different magnitudes of current, the first and second light emitters are respectively configured to emit first light and second light, the first light emitter is electrically connected to the second light emitter through a common electrode.

Abstract: A method of diagnosing a periodontal condition using a protein showing a concentration difference between periodontal tissue in a normal condition and an abnormal condition from a subject's saliva is provided. According to this non-invasive method, the patient himself is able to check the presence of periodontal disease and identify the time to receive a treatment at an early stage, which will allow the patient to save time and cost for the treatment of periodontitis.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for receiving and recording a digital broadcast program and reproducing a recorded digital broadcast program with time-based trick play features. While recording a broadcast program on a storage medium, the apparatus creates an index file regarding random access points of the program. Receiving a request for a jump or trick play operation given in terms of time, the apparatus detects the time interval between each of the random access points based on the created file. Referring to the time interval, the apparatus determines the position to be reached by the jump and begins playback from the position or determines the number of access points to be skipped for the trick play and begins the requested trick play by skipping random access points by the number, thereby providing a user-friendly interface having time-based trick play features.

Abstract: A method that implements low-speed playback of a recorded digital broadcast program in a digital broadcast receiver, comprising the steps of (a) decoding and outputting a received broadcast program consisting of MPEG-encoded I-, P-, and B-pictures, simultaneously recording the received broadcast program, (b) responsive to a request for low-speed playback, extracting only I- and P-pictures from the recorded program and creating alternative pictures for B-pictures, beginning from the start position of the requested playback, (c) inserting intermediate pictures between the pictures in step (b), the number of the created intermediate pictures depending on the requested playback speed, and (d) decoding and outputting the stream of the pictures including the inserted intermediate pictures. The method in accordance with the present invention provides several advantages such as reduced computations and smooth slow motions at very low playback speeds.
