다이오드 레이저의 개발과 발달에 의해 고출력의 다이오드 펌핑 고체 레이저(DPSSL, Doode-Pumped Solid State Laser)가 개발되었고 다양한 분야에서 그 응용성이 증가하고 있다. 고출력 레이저 발생의 경우에 펌핑에 의한 레이저 매질 내부의 열 발생이 중요하게 대두되고, 이러한 열로 인해 레이저 빔의 왜곡이 생겨나 빔질이 저하된다. 레이저 빔질의 개선은 가우시안(Gaussian) 분포를 따르는 빔에 대해 기술하고 있는 광학 공식들과 직접적인 산업현장에서의 유용성 때문에 매우 중요한 문제가 된다. (중략)

We have studied depth conversion of a reconstructed image by means of recombination of the elemental images in the integral imaging system for 3D display. With the recombination, depth conversion to the pseudoscopic, the orthoscopic, the real or the virtual as well as to arbitrary depth without any distortion is possible under proper conditions. The conditions on the recombinations for the depth conversion are theoretically derived. The reconstructed images using the converted elemental images are presented.

본 논문은 비-스플라인(B-spline) 보간법을 이용한 영상의 변환에 대하여 논한다. 국소적인 영상의 정보나 세분화된 영상의 정보를 얻기 위해 영상의 확대 변환이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 영상의 확대 변환을 위해 선형 (linear), 큐빅 (cubic), 인근치 (nearest neighbour)등의 보간법 [2]과 비-스플라인(B-Spline) 보간법[1][3][4]을 적용하였다. 실험을 통하여 비-스플라인 보간법이 현재 많이 사용되고있는 인근치 보간법, 선형 보간법, 큐빅 보간법들 보다 상대적으로 우월한 영상의 질을 가져옴을 보였다. 결론적으로, 영상의 기하학적 변환에 있어 기존의 세 가지 보간법들 보다 비-스플라인 보간법을 사용한 경우에 더 좋은 결과를 가지며, 비-스플라인 함수의 차수가 고차로 갈수록 영상의 질이 향상됨을 알 수 있다. 렌즈 등에 의한 왜곡현상을 가지고 있는 위성 사진이나 의료 영상을 기하학적 변환을 통하여 보정하는데 비-스플라인 보간법을 적용할 수 있다.

골다공증은 해면골의 골소주 두께 감소 및 파단에 기인한 전체적인 골질이 저하되는 질병이다. 골다공증을 예방과 조기진단을 하기 위해서는 골밀도를 측정하여야 한다. 보다 나은 이미지를 얻기 위해 Digital X-Ray로 골밀도를 측정하여 영상 처리하기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 먼저 디지털 센서에서 증감지와 렌즈간 거리가 가까워서 증감지의 중심과 주변부의 광 경로차이가 발생하므로 왜곡이 발생하는데 이를 균일화하여야 한다. 그리고 X-Ray장비의 조건에 따라 영상에 많은 차이를 보이므로 영상의 밝기를 보정하는 과정이 필수적이다.

본 논문에서는 가상의 체스보드판을 이용한 카메라 캘리브레이션 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법에서는 카메라 포즈나 체스보드판의 움직임을 모사하기 위해 가상 카메라로 획득한 여러 포즈의 체스보드 이미지를 디스플레이에 표시하고 디스플레이를 캘리브레이션 대상이 되는 카메라로 촬영한다. 가상 체스보드 격자점좌표와 촬영된 이미지의 체스보드 격자점좌표 사이의 homography 행렬로부터 카메라 파라미터에 대한 제한조건을 추출할 수 있음을 보였고, 렌즈 왜곡을 고려한 전체 카메라 캘리브레이션 방법 또한 제안하였다.

When the optical image stabilization is implemented by moving one of the lens groups in a zoom system, decentration should be considered in the optical design process. Although it is partially possible to calibrate optical performances in an optical system with non-symmetrical elements by using a lot of commercial software, the results of calibrating longitudinal aberrations have some calibration errors because of the lack of precise consideration of decentered optical systems. In particular, the amount of distortion in paraxial ray tracing is different from the experimental value because paraxial ray tracing in the optical system is not useful. In this paper, in order to solve this problem being from various commercial lens design software, the set of equations of paraxial ray tracing in a zoom lens system with the non-symmetrical elements like decentration or tilt are theoretically induced. Then, the methods to calibrate the equations of longitudinal aberrations by using these equations in a non-symmetrical optical system are presented. The method of calibrating longitudinal aberrations can in practice be used to correct hand shaking effects in a zoom lens system.

A key component of an autonomous mobile robot is to localize itself and build a map of the environment simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a vision-based localization and mapping algorithm of mobile robot using fisheye lens. To acquire high-level features with scale invariance, a camera with fisheye lens facing toward to ceiling is attached to the robot. These features are used in mP building and localization. As a preprocessing, input image from fisheye lens is calibrated to remove radial distortion and then labeling and convex hull techniques are used to segment ceiling and wall region for the calibrated image. At the initial map building process, features we calculated for each segmented region and stored in map database. Features are continuously calculated for sequential input images and matched to the map. n some features are not matched, those features are added to the map. This map matching and updating process is continued until map building process is finished, Localization is used in map building process and searching the location of the robot on the map. The calculated features at the position of the robot are matched to the existing map to estimate the real position of the robot, and map building database is updated at the same time. By the proposed method, the elapsed time for map building is within 2 minutes for 50㎡ region, the positioning accuracy is ±13cm and the error about the positioning angle of the robot is ±3 degree for localization.

Recently, high-resolution cameras in smartphones enable measurement of minute objects such as cracks in concrete using image processing techniques. The technology to investigate the crack width using an application at an adjacent distance of the close shot range has already been implemented, but the use is limited, so it is necessary to verify the usability of the high-resolution smartphone camera to measure cracks at a longer distance. This study focuses on recognizing the size of subdivided crack widths at a thickness within 1.0 mm of crack width at a distance of 2 m. In recent Android-based smartphones, an experiment was conducted focusing on the relationship between the unit pixel size, which is a measurement component, and the shooting distance, depending on the camera resolution. As a result, it was possible to confirm the necessity of a smartphone lens for the classification and quantification of microcrack widths of 0.3 mm to 1mm. The universal telecentric lens for smartphones needed to be installed in an accurate position to minimize the effect of distortion. In addition, as a result of applying a 64 MP high-resolution smartphone camera and double magnification lens, the crack width could be calculated within 2 m in pixel units, and crack widths of 0.3, 0.5, and 1mm could be distinguished.

There have been many studies on subject tests for 3D contents using 3D glasses, but there is a limited research for 3D contents using autostereoscopic display. In this study, we investigated to assess usability of electroencephalogram (EEG) as an objective evaluation for 3D contents with different quality using autosteroscopic display, especially for lenticular lens type. The image with optimal quality and the image with distorted quality were separately generated for autostereosopic display with lenticular lens type and displayed sequentially through lenticular lens for 26 subjects. EEG signals of 8 channels from 26 subjects exposed to those images were detected and correlation between EEG signal and the quality of 3D images were statistically evaluated to check differences between optimal and distorted 3D contents. What we found was that there was no statistical significance for a wave vibration, however b wave vibration shows statistically significant between optimal and distorted 3D contents. b wave vibration observed for the distorted 3D image was stronger than that for the optimal 3D image. This results suggest that subjects viewing the distorted 3D contents through lenticular lens experience more discomfort or fatigue than those for the optimum 3D contents, which resulting in the greater b wave activity for those watching the distorted 3D contents. In conclusion, these results confirm that electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis can be used as a tool for objective evaluation of 3D contents using autosteroscopic display with lenticular lens type.

This study presents a close-range photogrammetry that is applicable to beach profile estimation using a non-metric camera. Based on the analysis of oblique video image in which the video camera was installed on a horizontal plane and the field of view was fixed, a new equation to analyze a photograph was developed considering the following aspects: (1) camera is allowed to be rotated about its optical axis and (2) a simple error model is adopted to correct lens distortion and other systematic errors associated with the non-metric camera, which improves accuracy of non-metric imageries. To test the modified technique, photographs of the beach were taken near the Donghae City in February, 1998. In addition, beach profiles were surveyed with conventional dumpy level and surveying staff. RMS error between the estimated and measured beach profiles is less than 10 cm in elevation.
