Abstract: A system and method for efficient communication bus arbitration in a communication protocol are provided. The system and method for efficient communication bus arbitration are a system and method for slave communication bus arbitration in multi-drop communication, and provide efficient and fast communication speed by improving the packet structure in a manner in which a slave controller sequentially responds to a query of a master controller.

Abstract: A module and method for linking information of a plurality of driving units, and a module and method for linking driving units of a robot system in which a master controls a plurality of driving units included in a plurality of slave devices through communication are provided. The module and method for linking driving units of a robot system provide compatibility with an existing robot motion table that uses one driving unit for one device without requiring a separate conversion operation.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an all-solid-state battery includes preparing a solid electrolyte layer, providing lithium metal to the solid electrolyte layer to prepare a stack, and radiating ultrasonic waves or sound waves to the stack. The method provides an all-solid-state battery with a stable interface between an anode formed of lithium metal and a solid electrolyte layer.

Abstract: A camera module includes a lens assembly comprising a plurality of solid lenses, an image sensor disposed on an optical axis of the plurality of solid lenses, a liquid lens disposed on the optical axis, the liquid lens being disposed on the image sensor, and a controller configured to move the image sensor in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis.

Abstract: The present invention provides an external additive for toner, selected from the group consisting of tin oxide fine particles, complex tin oxide fine particles, and a mixture of the same fine particles, wherein the fine particles are (?) charged fine particles having an energy band gap of 3.2 to 3.6 eV, an electronegativity value (?) of 15 to 18, and a Blow-Off charge amount (uC/g) of ?100 to ?150. The external additive for toner of the present invention can: replace nano-sized titanium dioxide which has been conventionally used as an external additive for toner; guarantee general consumers using image devices as well as workers in the image industry safety from the harmful influences that may be generated upon exposure to the nano-sized titanium dioxide detached from the surface of a toner in use; and be safe for the human body.

Abstract: A transmittance-variable layer and a transmittance-variable device including the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a transmittance-variable device includes a polarization layer and a transmittance-variable layer disposed on the polarization layer, wherein the transmittance-variable layer includes a first base layer disposed on the polarization layer and a spacer fixed on a surface of the first base layer opposite to the polarization layer, and a second base layer facing the first base layer and spaced apart from the first base layer by the first spacer, wherein the first spacer maintains a gap between the first and second base layers, and a first light modulating material disposed in the gap.

Abstract: Disclosed is a novel method of preparing a secondary amine compound using a microflow reactor. According to the method, a primary amine compound and a halide compound are allowed to react with each other in the microflow reactor, such that the production of a tertiary amine compound or an ammonium salt is minimized, whereby the secondary amine compound is efficiently prepared.
