Following the successful launch of KOMPSAT-3 in May 2012, KOMPSAT-5 in August 2013, and KOMPSAT-3A in March 2015 have succeeded in launching the integrated operation of optical, radar and thermal infrared sensors in Korea. We have established a foundation to utilize the characteristics of each sensors. In order to overcome limitations in the range of application and accuracy of the application of a single sensor, multi-sensor image fusion techniques have been developed which take advantage of multiple sensors and complement each other. In this paper, we introduce the development of software (InFusion) for multi-sensor image fusion and valued-added product generation using KOMPSAT series. First, we describe the characteristics of each sensor and the necessity of fusion software development, and describe the entire development process. It aims to increase the data utilization of KOMPSAT series and to inform the superiority of domestic software through creation of high value-added products.

We report the design and performance analysis of an off-axis three-mirror telescope as the fore optics for a new hyperspectral sensor aboard a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), for low-altitude coastal remote sensing. The sensor needs to have at least 4 cm of spatial resolution at an operating altitude of 500 m, $4^{\circ}$ field of view (FOV), and a signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 100 at 660 nm. For these performance requirements, the sensor's optical design has an entrance pupil diameter of 70 mm and an F-ratio of 5.0. The fore optics is a three-mirror system, including aspheric primary and secondary mirrors. The optical performance is expected to reach $1/15{\lambda}$ in RMS wavefront error and 0.75 in MTF value at 660 nm. Considering the manufacturing and assembling phase, we determined the alignment compensation due to the tertiary mirror from the sensitivity, and derived the tilt-tolerance range to be 0.17 mrad. The off-axis three-mirror telescope, which has better performance than the fore optics of other hyperspectral sensors and is fitted for a small UAV, will contribute to ocean remote-sensing research.

The purpose of this research is twofold. The first is to develop the measures for evaluating performance of fingerprint sensor modules quantitatively and objectively. The second is to present the methodology for evaluating compatibilities among disparate fingerprint sensors. This paper focuses on the performance evaluation not of fingerprint authentication algorithm but of fingerprint sensors. Presented in this paper are several indicators and their measuring schemes such as the actual resolution of fingerprint images, the level of distortion by horizontal and vertical resolutions of fingerprint image, the intensity distribution for various illuminating conditions. Nine commercial sensor modules have been tested and the test results are expressed by using 95% confidence interval based on 50 acquired fingerprint images. The experimental results are compared with the manufacturer's sensor specification.

At the aim of solving the problems appearing in traditional optical motion capturing systems such as the interference among multiple patches and the complexity of sensor and patch allocations, this paper proposes a new motion capturing system which is composed of a single camera and multiple motion sensors. A motion sensor is consisted of an acceleration sensor and a gyro sensor to detect the motion of a patched body and the orientation (roll, pitch, and yaw) of the motion, respectively. Although Image information provides the positions of the patches in 2D, the orientation information of the patch motions acquired by the motion sensors can generate 3D pose of the patches using simple equations. Since the proposed system uses the minimum number of sensors to detect the relative pose of a patch, it is easy to install on a moving body and can be economically used for various applications. The performance and the advantages of the proposed system have been proved by the experiments.

본 연구는 본 연구에서는 내륙에 위치한 하천(백제보)과 호소(남양호)를 대상으로 수체반사도를 활용하여 유역특성에 따른 반사도의 변화를 확인하고 Chlorophyll-a(Chl-a)의 농도를 추정하고자 하였다. 각 유역별 특성분석을 위해 제원자료, 토지피복도 및 11개(수소이온농도, 용존산소, BOD, COD, 부유물질, 총질소, 총인, 수온, 전기전도도 및 Chlorophyll-a)의 수질인자 자료를 구축하였다. 백제보는 2016-2017년 유인항공기에 탑재된 초분광센서를 이용하여 반사도를 측정하였고, 남양호는 2020-2021년 초분광센서가 탑재된 Drone과 Sentinel-2 MSI영상으로부터 반사도를 측정하였으며 두 유역 모두 촬영 범위에 대하여 현장샘플링을 실시하였다. 유역특성, 수질인자간 상관성 및 밴드별 상관성 분석을 실시하였다. 수질인자 간 상관성 분석 결과 Chl-a와 광학적 특징이 있는 SS, TOC가 상관성이 높게 나타났으며, 반사도의 경우 Chl-a가 고농도일수록 Near-Infrared, Blue 파장과 상관성이 높게 나타났다. 해당 분석결과를 기반으로 각 유역에 대해 Chl-a Machine-learning 기법과 원격탐사자료를 이용하여 Chl-a의 농도를 산정하였으며 백제보, 남양호 각각 결정계수(R²) 0.80, 0.88의 성능을 보였다. 추후 고해상도 광학위성영상을 통해 유역특성을 고려한 광범위한 지역 규모의 Chl-a의 시공간적 분석이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

수치제어(NC : numerical control) 기술은 공장자동화를 위한 중요 기술이다. 우리 산업현장에 공장 자동화가 확장되면서 NC 공작기계, 산업용 로봇, 삼차원 좌표측정기 등의 사용이 매우 증 가되고 있다. 이러한 수치제어용 기계에서는 자동 위치제어를 위하여 길이변위와 회전각도 감 지용 센서인 NC 엔코더가 매우 중요한 부품이다. NC 엔코더에는 선형 엔코더(NC-스케일)와 회전 엔코더가 있으며, 각각 직선운동과 회전운동을 제어하기 위해서 필요한 자동화 부품이다. 그림 1에서는 CNC 위치제어 시스템에서 정확한 위치로 이동을 목표로하여 서보 제어할 때 기 계축의 위치를 감지하는 센서가 NC 엔코더임을 보여주고 있다. 선형 엔코더는 직선운동의 변 위를 감지하며 NC-스케일 이라고도 말한다. 우리나라에서는 아직 엔코더 제작기술을 개발하지 못하여 전량수입에 의존하고 있다. 이러한 NC 엔코더의 수요는 해외 시장뿐만 아니라 국내시 장에서도 급격히 증가되고 있으며 국산화 개발이 시급하다. 이 글에서는 엔코더의 종류별 작동 원리를 설명하고 또한 NC-스케일 제조기술을 개발하기 위하여 실험하였던 결과를 정리하고자 한다.

Most space-borne optical scanning systems adopt linear arrayconfigurations. The well-knownthree different types of space-borne sensors arealong-track line scanner, across-track linescanner, and three line scanner. To acquire accurate location information of an object on the ground withthose sensors, the exterior and interior orientation parameters are critical factors for both of space-borne and airborne missions. Since the imaging geometry of sensors mightchange time to time due to thermal influence, vibration, and wind, it is very important to analyze the Interior Orientation Parameters (IOP) effects on the ground. The experiments based on synthetic datasets arecarried out while the focal length biases are changing. Also, both high and low altitudes of the imagingsensor were applied. In case with the along-track line scanner, the focal length bias caused errors along the scanline direction. In the other case with the across-track one, the focal length bias caused errors alongthe scan line and vertical directions. Lastly, vertical errors were observed in the case ofthree-line scanner. Those results from this study will be able to provide the guideline for developing new linearsensors, so as for improving the accuracy of laboratory or in-flight sensor calibrations.

This paper is basic study for development of the photoelectric-type smoke detector that is able to distinguish fire source as well as fire detection. For this subject, Light source and sensor which is normally used for the conventional smoke detector are assembled for the optical chamber. Using 3 type of the test fires (the paper fire, the wood fire, the flammable liquid fire) this paper attempts to find optical properties of each fire. These 3 type of fire are used in the testing of smoke detector according to UL 268 standard. As the result, there are disambiguated between the paper fire and the wood fire in scattering and reason of extinction in the flammable liquid fire is different from that of the paper and the wood fire.

We fabricated a sensor head which consists of spliced different-diameter fiber gratings for discrimination between strain and temperature. Because the fibers were drawn from the same preform, their temperature characteristics were the same but not for strain sensitivities which are inversely proportional to fibers cross-sectional areas. In measurement range of 0-1500$\mu$strain and 20-10$0^{\circ}C$, we could obtain, by using the matrix calculation, the unknown physical quantities within 10% of calculation error compared with the micrometer and thermocouple values. To improve the strain measurement accuracy, we suggest a new, novel method which deploys an unbalanced fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer. This new signal processing technique converts the strain information to interference signal amplitude variation, temperature-independently. we obtained measurement accuracy nearly 80 times better than that obtainable with the conventional optical spectrum analyzer usage.
