Abstract Inside the brain tumor, the blood vessels are intricately composed, and the tumors and blood vessels are similar in color. Therefore, when observing tumors and blood vessels with the naked eye or a surgical microscope, it is difficult to distinguish between tumors and blood vessels. Fluorescence staining with indocyanine green (ICG) is performed to distinguish between brain tumors and blood vessels using a surgical microscope. However, when observing the blood circulation state of a tumor or blood vessel through a surgical microscope, light reflection occurs from the camera. In the process of observing the state of the blood vessel, due to the occurrence of light reflection, an obstruction phenomenon in which the observation field is blocked by the blood vessel of the object to be observed occurs. Therefore, it is difficult to diagnose the vascular condition. In this experiment, the 780nm light-emitting diode (LED) was irradiated to the ICG phantom, and then, when the fluorescence expression image was observed, the polarizing filter such as circular polarized light (CPL) filter and linear polarized light (LPL) filter were inserted into the camera and the reflected light was reduced. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the reflected light from the fluorescence expression image by using a polarizing filter, and it is expected to be applicable to surgery and diagnostic fields of cancer such as surgery.

 AbstrakPada kendaraan bermotor pelumasan adalah suatu hal yang sangat penting. Pelumasan berfungsi untuk melumasi komponen logam atau metal yang bergesekan dalam mesin. Untuk menjaga performa mesin kendaraan tetap prima maka kita harus cermat dalam memilih jenis oli yang akan digunakan menurut tingkat kekentalan oli yang dibutuhkan oleh kendaraan yang kita gunakan. Selain itu pemeriksaan dan pergantian oli secara berkala berperan penting dalam menjaga awetnya mesin kendaraan.Untuk membantu dalam pengecekan oli bagi para pemilik kendaran bermotor dalam hal ini sepeda motor dalam itu peneliti merancang sebuah alat pendeteksi kelayakan oli pada kendaraan sepeda motor. Perubahan nilai resistansi dari sensor IR (Infrared Resistor) setelah menerima pantulan cahaya dari LED (Light Emitting Diode) yang diletakkan diatas permukaan oli menyebabkan tegangan yang diterima Arduino Uno microcontroller ATmega328 membaca perubahan warna oli pada sebuah baki oli sepeda motor. Kata kunci : Pengecekan oli, Pantulan cahaya LED, Arduino Uno   AbstractLubrication in motor vehicles is important, lubrication is not only serves to lubricate metal or metal touching or friction in the machine. To maintain the performance of the vehicle's engine is prime, we must carefully select the type of oil to be used according to the oil viscosity level required by the vehicle we use. In addition, inspection and oil change periodically play an important role in maintaining the vehicle's crew.To assist in oil checking for motorised owners in this motorcycle in this case the author devised an oil feasibility detection tool on a motorcycle vehicle. Changes in resistance value from IR sensor (Infrared Resistor) after receiving light reflection from LED (Light Emitting Diode) that is placed above the oil surface causing the received voltage Arduino Uno Microcontroller ATmega328 Read the changes Oil color on a motorcycle oil tray. Keywords: Oil checking, LED light reflection, Arduino Uno

This paper experimentally investigates passive human visible light sensing (VLS). A passive VLS system is tested consisting of one light emitting diode (LED) and one photodiode-based receiver, both ceiling-mounted. There is no line of sight between the LED and the receiver, so only reflected light can be considered. The influence of a human is investigated based on the received signal strength (RSS) values of the reflections of ambient light at the photodiode. Depending on the situation, this influence can reach up to ± 50 % . The experimental results show the influence of three various clothing colors, four different walking directions and four different layouts. Based on the obtained results, a human pass-by detection system is proposed and tested. The system achieves a detection rate of 100% in a controlled environment for 21 experiments. For a realistic corridor experiment, the system keeps its detection rate of 100% for 19 experiments.

We have carried out research and development on an earphone-type respiratory rate measuring device, earable POCER. The name earable POCER is a combination of “earable”, which is a word coined from “wearable” and “ear”, and “POCER”, which is an acronym for “point-of-care ear sensor for respiratory rate measurement”. The earable POCER calculates respiratory frequency, based on the measurement values over one minute, through the simple attachment of an ear sensor to one ear of the measured subject and displays these on a tablet terminal. The earable POCER irradiates infrared light using a light-emitting diode (LED) loaded on an ear sensor to the epidermis within the ear canal and, by receiving that reflected light with a phototransistor, it measures movement of the ear canal based on respiration. In an evaluation experiment, eight healthy subjects first breathed through the nose 12 times per minute, then 16 times per minute, and finally 20 times per minute, in accordance with the flashing of a timing instruction LED. The results of these evaluation tests showed that the accuracy of the respiratory frequency was 100% for nose breathing 12 times per minute, 93.8% at 16 times, and 93.8% at 20 times.
