Abstract: Provided is a strain sensor. The strain sensor according to embodiments of the inventive concept includes a flexible substrate, rigid patterns on the flexible substrate, the rigid patterns including a first pattern and a second pattern spaced apart from the first pattern in a first direction, a first electrode on the first pattern, a second electrode on the second pattern, the second electrode being spaced apart from the first electrode, and a piezoresistive layer connecting the first electrode and the second electrode. Here, each of the rigid patterns may have a stiffness greater than that of the flexible substrate.

Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels and that displays an image in each of a plurality of frames, a driving controller that drives the plurality of frames with a plurality of driving frequencies, respectively, and a voltage controller that provides a first voltage and a second voltage, and the driving controller drives one of the plurality of frames with a first driving frequency and drives another one of the plurality of frames with a second driving frequency, and the voltage controller provides the second voltage to be repeated in a first period in the one of the plurality of frames and provides the second voltage to be repeated in a second period in the another one of the plurality of frames.

Abstract: A display device includes: a display panel including a surrounding display area, below which at least one panel driving circuit is positioned, and a main display area surrounded by the surrounding display area, the display panel including first pixels having a first pixel density and disposed in the surrounding display area and second pixels having a second pixel density greater than the first pixel density and disposed in the main display area; and a display panel driver to divide an input image to be displayed on the display panel in each frame into a first image to be displayed on the surrounding display area and a second image to be displayed on the main display area, calculate a luminance deviation of the first image, and determine whether to display the first image in the surrounding display area based on the luminance deviation of the first image.

Abstract: Apparatus for monitoring an electrical power supply system of a vehicle, the vehicle having a battery and internal combustion engine, an alternator, and a starter. The apparatus has a filter for determining the battery terminal voltage when the vehicle ignition is turned on. There is also a voltage gradient detector for detecting phase and gradient change of the battery terminal voltage when the vehicle ignition is on. A waveform detector is used for detecting and separating different waveforms when the vehicle ignition is on, and an engine-rotating sensor is used to sense a speed of the internal combustion engine when the vehicle ignition is on. Also included is a processor for processing at least one of the battery terminal voltage, the phase and gradient change, the different waveforms, and the speed of the internal combustion engine. An output is provided that is indicative of a condition of the electrical power supply system.
