A wide-angle lens calibration system is provided, which may include a rotation unit, an image input unit, and a processing unit. A lens to be calibrated may be disposed on the rotation unit; the rotation direction of the rotation unit may be parallel to the horizontal direction; the optical axis center of the lens may be aligned with a reference object. The image input unit may receive images from the lens. The processing unit may control the rotation unit to rotate and analysis the images received from the lens. The processing unit may execute a distortion calibration process, wherein the processing unit may continuously rotate the rotation unit by a predetermined angle and then record the distance between the position of the reference object in the image and the optical axis center and a total rotation angle after each rotation so as to establish a distortion calibration model.

Wide-angle lens calibration system and method thereof

The invention is directed to a method for patterning a material layer. The method comprises steps of providing a material layer having a first hard mask layer and a second hard mask layer successively formed thereon and then patterning the second hard mask layer. Thereafter, an etching process is performed to pattern the first hard mask layer by using the patterned second hard mask layer as a mask, and the etching process is performed with a power of about 1000 W. Next, the material layer is patterned by using the patterned first hard mask layer as a mask.

Etching method

Measurements of line roughness are separated into groups depending upon pre-layers. Image data collected from similar pre-layer types are considered together in order to separate effects of line roughness from distortion of measurements caused by the pre-layers. The resulting line roughness measurements are used to estimate an aspect of line quality.

Measurement of line-edge-roughness and line-width-roughness on pre-layered structures

A method of object tracking is provided with creating areas of a tracking object and a non-tracking object respectively; determining a state of the tracking object and the non-tracking object is separation, proximity, or overlap; creating at least one separation template image of a separation area of the tracking object and/or the non-tracking object if the tracking object is proximate the non-tracking object; fetching all feature points of an overlapping area of the tracking object and the non-tracking object if the tracking object and the non-tracking object overlap; performing a match on each of the feature points and the separation template image so as to calculate a corresponding matching error score respectively; and comparing the matching error score of each feature point with that of the separation template image so as to determine whether the feature points belong to the tracking object or the non-tracking object.

A fabricating method of a flexible circuit board includes the following steps. The metal carrier foil with metal oxide layer on its surfaces is provided first. The metal oxide layer is formed from the spontaneous oxidization of the metal carrier foil in ambient air and provides passive protection in a sulfuric acid solution or an acidic copper sulphate solution. A conductive seed layer is electroplated onto the metal oxide layer. A flexible insulating layer is formed onto the conductive seed layer by performing a polyimide casting process. The metal carrier foil is then peeled off from the conductive seed layer, which is supported by the insulating layer. A patterned circuit is formed on the insulating layer by performing photoresist coating, developing and etching.
