Abstract: A transportation head for a microchip transfer device capable of minimizing mechanical and chemical damage to a microchip, a microchip transfer device having same, and a transfer method thereby, and the transportation head includes a head body having a pickup area and a dummy area; a first protruding pin disposed in the pickup area of the head body; and a liquid droplet attached to the first protruding pin.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a cooperative driving method based on driving negotiation and an apparatus for the same. The cooperative driving method is performed by a cooperative driving apparatus for cooperative driving based on driving negotiation, and includes determining whether cooperative driving is possible in consideration of a driving mission of a requesting vehicle that requests cooperative driving with neighboring vehicles, when it is determined that cooperative driving is possible, setting a responding vehicle from which cooperative driving is to be requested among the neighboring vehicles, performing driving negotiation between the requesting vehicle and the responding vehicle based on a driving negotiation protocol, and when the driving negotiation is completed, performing cooperative driving by providing driving guidance information for vehicle control to at least one of the requesting vehicle and the responding vehicle.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for non-invasively monitoring a health condition. The apparatus for monitoring health according to an example embodiment of the disclosure includes: a pulse wave sensor configured to obtain a first pulse wave signal in a first contact state of an object and a second pulse wave signal in a second contact state of the object; and a processor configured to estimate a degree of vasodilation based on an alternating current (AC) component of each of the first pulse wave signal and the second pulse wave signal, configured to monitor a vascular health condition based on the estimated degree of vasodilation, and configured to output a result of monitoring the vascular health condition.

Abstract: Disclosed is a nano membrane which has improved dustproofness and thus effectively prevents matter, contaminants/dust, and the like from getting into an electronic device such as a PCB or a MEMS microphone, and has no air and sound permeability degradation. The nano membrane of the present disclosure contains a plurality of pores having an average diameter of 0.5-20 ?m, wherein the maximum diameter of each of the pores is 30 ?m, the minimum diameter of each of the pores is 0.1 ?m, and the porosity of the nano membrane is 50-90%.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a porous support, a preparation method therefor, and a reinforced membrane containing the same, wherein the porous support comprises a nanoweb in which nanofibers are integrated in the form of a nonwoven fabric comprising a plurality of pores, and the nanoweb has an elongation at break of 1-10%. The porous support has excellent air permeability and water permeability, remarkable durability, heat resistance and chemical resistance, and excellent mechanical strength and processability.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a porous support, a method for manufacturing the same, and a reinforced membrane comprising the same, the porous support comprising a nanoweb in which nanofibers are accumulated in the form of a nonwoven fabric including a plurality of pores, wherein the nanoweb has a moisture saturation time of 1 second to 600 seconds. The porous support not only has excellent durability, heat resistance, and chemical resistance while exhibiting excellent air permeability and water permeability, but also has good hydrophilicity.
