Abstract: Disclosed is an image sensor for measuring illumination, proximity and color temperature, including: a light source unit configured to irradiate infrared with a wavelength of a specific band onto an object; a light source controller configured to control power supplied to the light source unit; an infrared transmission filter configured to allow only the infrared and visible ray with the wavelength of the specific band among light incident through a lens after being reflected by the object to selectively transmit therethrough; a first sensing unit provided with an image pixel for acquiring an image of the object introduced through the infrared transmission filter; and a second sensing unit configured to receive the infrared and the visible ray having passed through the infrared transmission filter and measure current illumination, proximity to the object and color temperature of the object.

Abstract: Provided is a coating layer for cutting tools, as a hard coating layer stacked and formed in the sequence of a TiN layer, a TiCN layer, a bonding layer, an alumina (Al2O3) layer, and a cover layer from the bottom by using a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method on a parent material, able to improve cutting performance, because surface residual stress of the coating layer may be maintained in a compressive stress state by adjusting a composition of the cover layer without using a separate additional process, such as a blasting operation, or a mixed process of CVD and physical vapor deposition (PVD), and simultaneously the cover layer may also be used as a wear-resistant layer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sheet-material forming device and method which can be easily changed in response to modifications and changes in a target shape and which can implement forming even curved surfaces with edges or localized small radiuses of curvature.

Abstract: An image sensor is capable of judging proximity to a subject. The image sensor judges the distance to the subject using a change in output voltage value by the presence or absence of a specific band of wavelengths of infrared (IR) measured by optical sensors such as proximity pixels. Thereby, the image sensor enables an ordinary image sensor to easily realize a proximity function, and makes it possible to minimize damage to a quality of image when the image is picked up in a night photography mode or in a proximity photography mode.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fabrication method of products with closed channels by injection molding, which includes: a channel substrate mounting step of mounting a channel substrate comprising a plurality of opened micro-channels thereon to a mold; and a substrate cover molding step of molding a substrate cover by the injection molding on an upper surface of the channel substrate mounted to the mold, the substrate cover being coupled to the channel substrate while being molded. With this, the products with the closed channels can be fabricated without any additional coupling process between the channel substrate having the opened channels and the substrate cover, thereby simplifying a fabrication process and enhancing work efficiency.

Abstract: An image rotation method without using a memory includes the steps of: reading, by a JPEG encoder, an input image having m×n macroblocks (wherein “m” and “n” are natural numbers); rotating image data of the respective macroblocks by a predetermined angle in a predetermined direction when encoding in the JPEG encoder; assigning and inputting a sequence of each rotated image data when encoding in the JPEG encoder; instructing the macroblocks to be output in a sequence changed from an initial input sequence of the macroblocks through use of a program when decoding in a JPEG decoder; and outputting an image rotated by the predetermined angle in the predetermined direction.

Abstract: Disclosed is a base assembly for a video display appliance capable of easily adjusting a tilting angle and a swiveling angle of a monitor. The base assembly comprises a front base having a coupler coupled to a bottom of the monitor, and moving means for rolling on a ground; a rear base pivotally engaged to a rear of the front base; and a resilient hinge assembly, engaged to the rear of the front base and a front of the rear base, for changing a tilting angle of the monitor according to an operating force applied upward or downward to the monitor.

Abstract: A plasma processing apparatus such as a plasma etching apparatus, which is not subject to arcing to the gas distributor plate which is caused by secondary potentials generated by polymers adhering to a gas distribution plate. The gas distribution plate is electrically isolated from the ground electric potential, and does not have any polarity. The gas distribution plate may be formed of an insulating material. Furthermore, a support plate may be adapted to fix the gas distribution plate to a chamber of the apparatus in such a manner that the gas distribution plate is detachably coupled with the support plate. Thereby, it is easier to separate the gas distribution plate from the apparatus to remove the accumulated polymers during the plasma process.
