Abstract: Disclosed is an exoskeleton-type rehabilitation robot system, including: a body part provided on a chair in which a user sits and provided with a robot arm capable of moving left or right based on the user seated on the chair; a conversion part configured to convert a position of the robot arm with respect to the body part; a driving part configured to articulate the robot arm with respect to the body part; and a controller configured to detect a change in a position of the robot arm and control a left or right driving mode of the driving part according to the position of the robot arm. In accordance with such a configuration, the exoskeleton-type rehabilitation robot system of the present invention is provided integrally with a chair, thereby having excellent space utilization. In addition, the user's initial preparation for rehabilitation training is simple, which can improve efficiency.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for encoding and decoding an image by skip encoding. The image-encoding method by skip encoding, which performs intra-prediction, comprises: performing a filtering operation on the signal which is reconstructed prior to an encoding object signal in an encoding object image; using the filtered reconstructed signal to generate a prediction signal for the encoding object signal; setting the generated prediction signal as a reconstruction signal for the encoding object signal; and not encoding the residual signal which can be generated on the basis of the difference between the encoding object signal and the prediction signal, thereby performing skip encoding on the encoding object signal.

Abstract: An instruction decoding unit in a microcomputer is disclosed having an instruction word capable of being selected by a user to conveniently produce application software while maintaining security. The decoding unit in a microcomputer includes an instruction register for storing instructions fetched from a memory, an instruction decoder for decoding instruction codes of the instructions stored in the instruction register and for designating micro-instructions to be executed, a micro-ROM for outputting a series of the micro-instructions designated by the instruction decoder, and a user instruction selector for selecting or changing the micro-instructions of the micro-ROM in response to user's selection so as to change the operation of an instruction word.

Abstract: A communication system and method requiring only a single line for communication among integrated circuits (ICs). The system includes: a single communication line; plural ICs coupled to the single communication line; one of the ICs operating as a master IC; one of the ICs operating as a transmitting IC and one of the ICs operating as a receiving IC according to a designation by the master IC. The master IC transmits, on the single communication line, a reference signal having a reference signal width, C.sub.PW, to the other ICs. The master IC designates a first one of the ICs and a second one of the ICs as a chosen transmitting IC and a chosen receiving IC, respectively, for an imminent data-transmission operation, by transmitting signals of differing widths (relative to the reference signal width) over the single communication line.
