An apparatus for manufacturing the brake pad includes a forming device forming friction material powder in the form of the friction material and attaching the formed friction material to the backing plate in a forming process, a quality stabilization device heating and pressing the friction material, and a heat treatment unit heating the brake pad at a predetermined temperature.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for processing a multichannel audio signal. A multichannel audio signal processing method may include: generating an N-channel audio signal of N channels by down-mixing an M-channel audio signal of M channels; and generating a stereo audio signal by performing binaural rendering of the N-channel audio signal.

Abstract: A method for forming through-via metal wiring is disclosed. According to the method, through-via metal wiring can be formed with excellent plating quality without an expensive sputtering process by bonding a metal foil to one side of a substrate having a through-via formed therein and using the foil as a metal seed layer.

Abstract: A battery mounting structure for a vehicle is provided to include a case having a first internal member that is disposed to be spaced parallel to an upper side of a lower panel of the case and a second internal member that is disposed perpendicular to the first internal member, and configured to accommodate a plurality of battery modules therein using the first internal member and the second internal member. An outer side member is provided in a shape protruding toward the outside on an outer side of the case. The battery modules are disposed in a stacking direction of battery cells that is parallel to a longitudinal direction of the first internal member.

Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI) based method for controlling a multimedia device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure makes it possible to ensure accuracy in detection and interpretation of a voice command of a user by enabling an AI care device to control the volume of the multimedia device by itself or allow the user to control the volume of the multimedia device by transmitting voice guidance for volume control to the user when the AI care device does not accurately detect the voice signal of the user due to the audio signal of the multimedia device and the voice signal of the user applied to the AI care device at the same time.
