Abstract: A method of calibrating an optical sensor may include acquiring a first characteristic for an external light source through a detector of an optical sensor while an internal light source of the optical sensor is turned off; driving the internal light source; acquiring a second characteristic for the internal light source and the external light source through the detector, based on driving the internal light source; and acquiring a reference characteristic of the internal light source, for calculation of an absorbance of an object, based on the first characteristic and the second characteristic.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a chin guard pivoting mechanism, and the chin guard pivoting mechanism (100) according to the present disclosure is provided in a helmet which comprises a helmet body (10), a chin guard (20) pivotally coupled to the helmet body (10), and a shield (30) pivotally coupled to the helmet body (10). When the chin guard (20) is pivoted from the front of a user's chin up to a first predetermined angle (A) with respect to the helmet body (10), the shield (30) is pivoted upward, and when the chin guard (20) is pivoted up to a second predetermined angle (B) greater than the first predetermined angle (A) with respect to the helmet body (10), the shield (30) is pivoted downward.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a chin-guard gap adjustment means for a helmet. The chin-guard gap adjustment means (100) for a helmet according to the present disclosure is mounted to a helmet that comprises: a helmet body (10); and a chin guard (20) which is rotatably coupled to the helmet body (10) and can rotate from a position in front of the chin of a wearer to a position behind or above the helmet body (10). The chin-guard gap adjustment means is coupled to the chin guard (20) and adjusts the space between the chin guard (20) and the helmet body (10).

Abstract: An active headrest apparatus for a vehicle seat. A contact area in which the upper body of a person who is seated in a car in the event of a rear-end collision of the car is moved backward due to an inertial force and contacts a back plate can be increased, and a distance at which a headrest is moved and rises can be increased so that the function of an active headrest can be more faithfully performed and neck injury of the person who is seated in the car can be prevented to the maximum.

Abstract: An automatic moving apparatus may include a collision prediction sensor, a control unit comparing a value measured by the collision prediction sensor, with a reference value stored in the control unit, and outputting a control signal when it may be determined that the value measured by the collision prediction sensor is higher than the reference value, and a headrest moving unit moving a headrest unit toward a passenger's head before the headrest unit comes into contact with the passenger's head, and including a stay rod connected to the headrest unit, both sides of the stay rod being placed in a vertical direction, tilting device tilting the stay rod forwards or backwards relative to a seatback in response to the control signal of the control unit, and vertical moving device moving the stay rod in a vertical direction in response to the control signal of the control unit.
