  • Patent number: 11538701
    Abstract: A method of inspecting a semiconductor processing chamber includes providing a vision sensor into the semiconductor processing chamber, aligning the vision sensor on a target in the semiconductor processing chamber, obtaining an object image of the target using an image scanning module of the vision sensor, generating a three dimensional model of the target based on the object image, and obtaining a physical quantity of the target from the three dimensional model. The obtaining of the object image of the target includes projecting a pattern onto the target using an illuminator of the image scanning module, and scanning an image of the target in which the pattern is projected, using a camera of the image scanning module.

  • Publication number: 20160246529
    Abstract: An operating method of a storage device including a nonvolatile memory device includes receiving a logical address and a write command for first data from an external device, determining whether the write command includes security properties, detecting whether second data written into the same logical address as the logical address exists according to a result of the determination, and writing the first data into a unit memory area in which the second is stored according to a result of the detection.
