  • Publication number: 20240147592
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a light emitting diode (LED) driving device that may expand a usable range of LED current and battery voltage by reducing heat generation of an integrated circuit, and an LED lighting device including the same, which may include a current controller that constantly controls an LED current flowing through an LED string and an IC heat dissipation part connected to a node between the LED string and the current controller to dissipate IC heat of the current controller, wherein when a battery voltage supplied to the LED string increases, the IC heat dissipation part reduces a first LED current flowing from the LED string to the current controller and simultaneously increases a second LED current flowing from the LED string to the current controller via the IC heat dissipation part, thereby reducing the IC heat generation of the current controller.

  • Publication number: 20240119673
    Abstract: Provided is a cognitive experiment method for change in periphery region image quality for parameter determination of a foveated hologram. According to an embodiment, a cognitive experiment method for determining foveated image parameters includes: generating a foveated image which includes a foveal region and a periphery region while reducing image quality regarding the periphery region; displaying the generated foveated image; receiving an input of a response to image quality of the periphery region from a subject; and collecting information regarding appropriate image quality of the periphery region, based on the response inputted by the subject. Accordingly, in applying a foveated hologram generation algorithm for real-time reproduction, various parameters such as a boundary between a foveal region image and a periphery region image in a foveated hologram, and a degree of quality degradation of the periphery region image may be appropriately determined through a cognitive experiment.

  • Publication number: 20240111250
    Abstract: Provided is a hologram image normalization method for a holographic printer. In a holographic printing method according to an embodiment, generating, encoding, and normalizing for the (n+1)-th hogel are performed in parallel with loading and recording of a normalized hologram for the n-th hogel, and moving and waiting for the (n+1)-th hogel. Accordingly, a global maximum value and a global minimum value for normalization may be calculated as approximate estimation values, and a hologram generation process and a printing process may be performed in parallel, so that a total printing time may be minimized and memory usage may be optimized when holographic printing is performed.
