The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability of posturography using a newly developed automatic balance calibration system (I Balance S (CyberMedic Co., Korea)). Twenty-three patients who volunteered participated in this study. Mean center of gravity (COG) sway velocity, total distance, maximum velocity (MV), average movement degree (AMD), maximum excursion (ME) and directional control (DC) were measured by I Balance S. Overall stability index and overall directional control score were measured by Biodex Balance System (Biodex Medical Systems Inc., New York, USA). For the accurate measurement, the COG was automatically calibrated to zero before each measurement by I Balance S. Each subject was tested twice by examiner A and once by examiner B. The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were calculated to assess the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability. Inter-rater reliabilities were higher with the I Balance S (ICC, 0.80-0.91) than with the Biodex Balance System (ICC, 0.71-0.82). Intra-rater reliabilities were similar between the I Balance S (ICC, 0.88-0.94) and the Biodex Balance System SD (ICC, 0.90-0.91). I Balance S using an automatic balance calibration system is a reliable posturography method for performing balance assessments.

AbstractLaser engraving of photographs on wood surfaces is a challenging task. To optimize the outcome and production quality it is necessary to control every aspect of the laser engraving process. Most of the production machines and technologies overall are mainly focused on laser power control. However, with other systems and deeper knowledge of the wood characteristics it is possible to achieve even better quality. This paper deals with enlarging the number of achievable shades of burned wood and its optimization. A calibration system was developed to control colour shades of engraved wood with a combination of laser power and optic focus. With this approach it is possible to widen achievable palette of engraved shades by continuous control of chemical processes of laser and wood interaction. The production is divided into wood burning and wood carbonization by variation of laser beam focus.
