In the zoom lens of digital still cameras with the variation of the image plane generated by various symmetric error factors such as curvature, thickness and refractive index error of each lens surface about the optic axis, we induce a theoretical condition to fix constantly the image plane by translating the compensator group of the zoom lens by using the Gaussian bracket. We confirm the validity of this condition by using three examples of general zoom lens types with 3, 4, and 5 groups, respectively. When these error factors are randomly changed within the range of tolerance according to the Monte Carlo method, we verify that the distributions of the degree of moving of the compensator are normal distributions at three zoom lens types. From capability analysis using these results, we theoretically propose the method estimating the standard deviation, that is, sigma-level, as a function of the maximum movement of the compensator.

Precise image-to-image registration is required to process multi-sensor data together. The purpose of this paper is to develop an algorithm that register between high-resolution optical and SAR images using linear features. As a pre-processing step, initial alignment was fulfilled using manually selected tie points to remove any dislocations caused by scale difference, rotation, and translation of images. Canny edge operator was applied to both images to extract linear features. These features were used to design a cost function that finds matching points based on their similarity. Outliers having larger geometric differences than general matching points were eliminated. The remaining points were used to construct a new transformation model, which was combined the piecewise linear function with the global affine transformation, and applied to increase the accuracy of geometric correction.

In this paper, we present spiral pattern which suits for optical simulator to calibrate fisheye lens and compensate geometric distortion. Using spiral pattern, we present calibration without mathematical modeling in advance. Proposed spiral pattern used to input image of optical simulator. Using fisheye lens image, we calibrate a fisheye lens by matching geometrically moved dots to corresponding original dots which leads not to need mathematical modeling. Proposed algorithm calibrates using dot matching which matches spiral pattern image dot to distorted image dot. And this algorithm does not need modeling in advance so it is effective. Proposed algorithm is enabled at processing of pattern recognition which has to get the exact information using fisheye lens for digital zooming. And this makes possible at compensation of geometric distortion and calibration of fisheye lens image applying in various image processing.

Using multi-sensor or multi-temporal high resolution satellite images together is essential for efficient applications in remote sensing area. The purpose of this paper is to estimate geometric difference of translations between high-resolution optical and SAR images automatically. The geometric and radiometric pre-processing steps were fulfilled to calculate the similarity between optical and SAR images by using Mutual Information method. The coarsest-level pyramid images of each sensor constructed by gaussian pyramid method were generated to estimate the initial translation difference of the x, y directions for calculation efficiency. The precise geometric difference of translations was able to be estimated by applying this method from coarsest-level pyramid image to original image in order. Yet even when considered only translation between optical and SAR images, the proposed method showed RMSE lower than 5m in all study sites.

In this investigation, we describe a chromatic confocal sensor based on a geometric phase lens for measuring the thicknesses of transparent plates. In order to design a compact sensor, a geometric phase lens, which has diffractive and polarizing characteristics, is used as a device to generate chromatic aberration, and a fiber optic module is adopted. The systematic error of the sensor is reduced with wavelength peak detection by Gaussian curve fitting and the common error compensation obtained by the repeatedly consecutive experimental results. An approach to calculate the plate thickness is derived and verified with sapphire and BK7 plates. Because of the simple and compact design of the proposed sensor with rapid measurement capability, it is expected to be widely used in thickness measurements of transparent plates as an alternative to traditional approaches.

전방향 영상 시스템은 한 장의 영상에 360도 모든 방향의 영상정보를 담을 수 있는 영상획득 시스템을 의미한다. 기하광학소자를 이용하여 사람의 눈이나 기존의 카메라로는 한 번에 볼 수 없는 매우 넓은 범위의 영상데이터를 효율적으로 얻을 수 있다. 또한 전방향 영상획득의 원리와 시점이 다른 두 영상, 즉 스테레오 영상획득의 원리를 적용한 전방향 스테레오 영상 시스템은 두 영상간의 정합을 통해 3차원 거리를 측정할 수 있다는 특징이 있다. 본 고에서는 전방향 스테레오 영상획득에 관해 기존에 제안된 연구결과들의 광학적 원리와 장단점을 조사, 비교하였다.

The sensitivity vector which depends on geometry of object illumination angles and distances of ESPI was analyzed. And the sensitivities of in-plane and out-of-plane displacements have been investigated. From these results, we have the conclusion that it is useful to use the diverging beam for object illumination. With diverging object illumination, only little errors are occurred when we approximate the sensitivity vector to constant all over the object surface.urface.

나노 임프린트 기술은 기존의 광학적 리소그라피 (optical lithography) 기술보다 저렴한 비용으로 나노 구조물을 대량으로 제조할 수 있을 것으로 기대되고 있는 기술이다. 현재까지 반도체 공정기술의 주류를 이루고 있는 광학적인 리소그라피 기술은, 100nm이상의 CD(Critical Dimension)를 가지는 구조물들을 정밀하게 제조하여, 미소전자공학 (microelectronics) 소자, MEMS/MEMS, 광학소자 등의 제품들을 대량으로 생산하는 데에 널리 활용되고 있다. 반도체 소자의 고집적화 경향에 따라 100 nm 이하의 CD를 가지는 나노 구조물들을 제조할 필요성이 높아지고 있지만, 광학적인 방법으로는 광원의 파장보다 작은 구조물들을 제조하기가 어렵다. 보다 짧은 파장을 가지는 광원을 이용하는 리소그라피 장비가 계속적으로 개발되고 있으나, 그에 따른 장비 비용 및 제조 단가가 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있다.(중략)
