센서를 사용한 구조물의 진동측정 시 여러 문제로 인해 사용의 제약을 받아왔다. 이를 극복 하고자 최근 카메라를 이용한 진동 측정 기술이 연구되고 있지만 보통 산업용 카메라의 낮은 샘플링 주파수로 인해 구조물의 진동 측정에 한계를 보였다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 라인 스캔 카메라의 높은 샘플링 주파수를 이용한 진동 측정 기술을 제안하고 실험을 통하여 성능검증을 수행하였다.

단일 카메라로 회전하는 물체의 영상을 획득한 후, 그 영상을 분석하여 3차원으로 복구하는 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 물체의 회전과 단 하나의 카메라를 이용하는 방법이기에 기존의 스테레오 영상을 이용하는 방법에 비해 차이를 둘 수 있다. 회전하는 물체에는 회전축과 동일한 방향의 스캔라인을 형성시키고, 이 스캔라인을 적절한 측면에서 하나의 카메라를 이용해 영상으로 획득하여 스캔라인의 굴곡과 이 스캔라인에 인접한 화소의 컬러 정보를 이용하여 3차원의 물체를 재건한다. 이 방법은 3차원의 정보를 얻음에 있어 물체의 회전에 의존하기에 한 방향에서 얻어진 두 스테레오 영상의 정합과 각 방향에서 얻어진 영상을 정합 시킬 때 발생될 수 있는 스테레오 비전의 오류를 피할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 스크랩의 선별처리를 고속화하기 위한 방안으로 라인스캔 카메라를 이용한 색도인식 스크랩 선별시스템을 설계 제작하고 제작한 시스템을 이용하여 철 스크랩에 혼합되어 있는 Cu 스크랩을 자동으로 분리하는 시험연구를 행하였다. 스크랩선별 시스템은 크게 측정부, 이송부 및 ejector로 구분되며 이송되어 오는 스크랩 표면의 색도를 인식함으로써 임의로 지정한 특정한 표면색상의 스크랩만을 분리 하도록 되어 있다. 또한 본 연구에서는 선별처리의 고속화에 대응하기 위한 최적의 광원을 도출하기 위하여 주파수 가변 광원시스템을 제작하고 이를 이용하여 최적의 광원을 도출하였다. 도출된 최적의 광원조건하에서 철스크랩중에 혼입되어 있는 Cu 스크랩을 분리하는 선별시험을 행한 결과, 스크랩 이송속도가 15 m/min.에서 90% 이상의 인식효율과 약 75%이상의 분리효율을 나타내어 향후 고효율의 ejecting 시스템이 구현된다면 산업적으로 적용가능성이 매우 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

In this study, a scrap sorting system using a color recognition method has been developed to automatically sort out specified materials from a mixture, and its application as been examined in the separation of Cu and other non-ferrous metal parts from a mixture of iron scraps. The system is composed of three parts; measuring, conveying and ejecting parts. The color of scrap surface is recognized by the measuring part consisting of a line-scan camera, light sources and a frame grabber. The recognition is program-controlled by a image processing algorithms, and thus only the scrap part of designated color is separated by the use of air nozzles. In addition, the light system is designed to meet a high speed of sorting process with a frequency-variable inverter and the air nozzled ejectors are to be operated by an I/O interface communication with a hardware controller. In the functional tests of the system, its efficiency in the recognition of Cu scraps from its mixture with Fe ones reaches to more than 90%, and that in the separation more than 80% at a conveying speed of 25 m/min. Therefore, it is expected that the system can be commercialized in the industry of shredder makers if a high efficiency ejecting system is realized.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for improving defect-detection performance based on reconstruction of line-scan camera images using both the projection profiles and color space transform. The proposed method consists of RGB region segmentation, representative value reconstruction using the tracing system, and Y image reconstruction using color-space transformation. Through experiments it is demonstrated that the performance using the reconstructed image is better than that using aerial image for LCD surface inspection.

The automated visual inspection system (machine vision system) for quality assurance is important factory automation equipment in the manufacturing industries, such as display, semiconductor, etc. There is a lot of demand for the machine vision engineers. However, there are no technical training courses for machine vision technologies in vocational schools, colleges and universities. In this paper, we present the implementation of line scan camera based equipment for technical training of the automated visual inspection system. The training system consists of the X-Y stage which is widely used in machine vision industries and its variable image resolution are set to $10-30{\mu}m$. Additionally, this training system can attach the industrial illumination, either the direct illuminator or coaxial illuminator, for verifying the effect of illuminations. This means that the trainee can have a practical training in various equipment conditions and the training system is similar to the automated visual inspection system in industries.

An efficient automatic inspection system for Floating Seal is developed, The proposed system consists of a high resolution line scan camera, microcomputer, and PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). In order to perform rapid inspection, The ROI (Region of Interest) is extracted from the original image. There are types of defects; shape defects and surface defects. Each features of defects are captured by edge detect, segmentation, morphological operation, and threshold analysis. PLC controller is used to synchronize the whole system and store the inspection results temporarily to reduce the overhead of microcomputer. As a result, the system is being utilized successfully in a teal inspection line.

If the interlaced scan type camera moves while an image is filming from the camera, blur is often created from the misalignment of the two images of even and odd lines. This paper proposed an algorithm which removes the misalignment of the even and odd line images cased by the vibration of the interlaced scan type camera. The blurred original image is separated into the even and the odd line images as half size. Based on these two images, two full sized images are generated using interpolation technique. If a big difference between these two interpolated images is generated, the original image is taken while the camera is moving. In this case, a deblurred image is obtained with the alignment of these separated two images through feature point extraction, feature point matching, sub-pixel matching, outlier detection, and image mosaicking processes. This paper demonstrated that the proposed algorithm can create clear images from blurred images caused by various camera motions.

One of the basic requirements for the most advanced countries would be the well-planned traffic infrastructures. For such traffic safety systems, foreign countries follow the current tendency to which they manage the traffic facilities and equipments based on the objective assessment for the state of every traffic safety facility in terms of Asset Management(AM). As the road safety facilities related among them are very diverse, and their functions are very important as well, the regulations and directions for installing them are enacted. However, despite the standards and directions for the installations, sometimes, the facilities are not installed in accordance with the standards, not only causing inconvenience to the users but also negatively affecting the safety for them. In the study, for the facilities in which the installation interval and height are standardized according to the designed speed and geometrical structure of the road among the various road safety facilities, the image analysis model capable of measuring them with a line scanning camera was developed. In addition, the program systematically analyzing this was also developed and applied to the field and, as the result of that, the size and installation interval of the facilities could be measured fast and accurately.

Generally, a semiconductor chip measured with a few micro units is captured by line scan camera for higher inspection accuracy. However, the faulty inspection requires an exact boundary detection algorithm because it is very sensitive to scan speed and lighting conditions. In this paper we propose boundary detection using subpixel edge detection method in order to increase the accuracy of bump faulty detection on chips. The bump edge is detected by first derivative to four directions from bump center point and the exact edge positions are searched by the subpixel method. Also, the exact bump boundary to calculate the actual bump size is computed by LSM(Least Squares Method) to minimize errors since the bump size is varied such as bump protrusion, bump bridge, and bump discoloration. Experimental results exhibit that the proposed algorithm shows large improvement comparable to the other conventional boundary detection algorithms.
