본 논문에서는 레이저 빔의 파면을 고속으로 정밀하게 측정하기 위한 신호처리 알고리즘을 연구하였다. 레이저 빔의 파면 정보는 Shack-Hartmann 센서 내부의 CCD 카메라에 획득되는 점영상으로부터 기울기 정보를 추출하여 구할 수 있다. 컴퓨터는 영상처리 보드를 이용하여 하트만 센서 내부의 카메라에 획득되는 영상을 양자화된 디지털 값으로 획득한 후 이를 컴퓨터 메모리에 저장한다. 하트만 센서 내부의 CCD 카메라에 촬상되는 레이저 빔 영상은 CCD 픽셀들에 의하여 이산 샘플링되고, 이 영상은 컴퓨터 내부에 장착된 영상처리 전용 보드에 의하여 양자화된 디지털 값으로 변환된다.

In this paper, we implement robot which are ability to recognize obstacles and moving automatically to destination. we present two results in this paper; hardware implementation of image processing board and software implementation of visual feedback algorithm for a self-controlled robot. In the first part, the mobile robot depends on commands from a control board which is doing image processing part. We have studied the self controlled mobile robot system equipped with a CCD camera for a long time. This robot system consists of a image processing board implemented with DSPs, a stepping motor, a CCD camera. We will propose an algorithm in which commands are delivered for the robot to move in the planned path. The distance that the robot is supposed to move is calculated on the basis of the absolute coordinate and the coordinate of the target spot. And the image signal acquired by the CCD camera mounted on the robot is captured at every sampling time in order for the robot to automatically avoid the obstacle and finally to reach the destination. The image processing board consists of DSP (TMS320VC33), ADV611, SAA7111, ADV7l76A, CPLD(EPM7256ATC144), and SRAM memories. In the second part, the visual feedback control has two types of vision algorithms: obstacle avoidance and path planning. The first algorithm is cell, part of the image divided by blob analysis. We will do image preprocessing to improve the input image. This image preprocessing consists of filtering, edge detection, NOR converting, and threshold-ing. This major image processing includes labeling, segmentation, and pixel density calculation. In the second algorithm, after an image frame went through preprocessing (edge detection, converting, thresholding), the histogram is measured vertically (the y-axis direction). Then, the binary histogram of the image shows waveforms with only black and white variations. Here we use the fact that since obstacles appear as sectional diagrams as if they were walls, there is no variation in the histogram. The intensities of the line histogram are measured as vertically at intervals of 20 pixels. So, we can find uniform and nonuniform regions of the waveforms and define the period of uniform waveforms as an obstacle region. We can see that the algorithm is very useful for the robot to move avoiding obstacles.

Purpose: On-line image guided radiation therapy(on-line IGRT) and(kV X-ray images or cone beam CT images) were obtained by an on-board imager(OBI) and cone beam CT(CBCT), respectively. The images were then compared with simulated images to evaluate the patient's setup and correct for deviations. The setup deviations between the simulated images(kV or CBCT images), were computed from 2D/2D match or 3D/3D match programs, respectively. We then investigated the correctness of the calculated deviations. Materials and Methods: After the simulation and treatment planning for the RANDO phantom, the phantom was positioned on the treatment table. The phantom setup process was performed with side wall lasers which standardized treatment setup of the phantom with the simulated images, after the establishment of tolerance limits for laser line thickness. After a known translation or rotation angle was applied to the phantom, the kV X-ray images and CBCT images were obtained. Next, 2D/2D match and 3D/3D match with simulation CT images were taken. Lastly, the results were analyzed for accuracy of positional correction. Results: In the case of the 2D/2D match using kV X-ray and simulation images, a setup correction within $0.06^{\circ}$ for rotation only, 1.8 mm for translation only, and 2.1 mm and $0.3^{\circ}$ for both rotation and translation, respectively, was possible. As for the 3D/3D match using CBCT images, a correction within $0.03^{\circ}$ for rotation only, 0.16 mm for translation only, and 1.5 mm for translation and $0.0^{\circ}$ for rotation, respectively, was possible. Conclusion: The use of OBI or CBCT for the on-line IGRT provides the ability to exactly reproduce the simulated images in the setup of a patient in the treatment room. The fast detection and correction of a patient's positional error is possible in two dimensions via kV X-ray images from OBI and in three dimensions via CBCT with a higher accuracy. Consequently, the on-line IGRT represents a promising and reliable treatment procedure.

문자영상의 인식분야에서는 다양한 잡음으로 인해 손상된 영상을 개선하는 영상의 전처리 과정을 아주 중요시하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 영상의 객체 윤곽을 보호하면서 충격잡음에 효과적인 비선형 중간값(median) 필터를 먼저 적용하고, 영상객체에 대해 선택적으로 축소하고 확대하는 형태학(morphological) 필터를 직렬로 조합함으로서 선명한 문자 영상을 획득하였고, 좀 더 현실적인 문자를 인식하도록 Genesis 영상처리 보드와 이를 제어하는 MIL(Matrox Image Library) 패키지를 사용하여 실시간적으로 구현해 보았다.

본 논문에서는 적응광학시스템$^{(1)}$ 의 성능 향상에 필수적인 파면왜곡의 기울기 정보를 고속으로 측정하기 위한 중심점 추출 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 내부의 영상처리전용보드와 CCD카메라를 이용하여 하트만 센싱 점 영상을 획득하였고, 획득한 하트만 센싱 점 영상에 대해 제안한 중심점 추출 알고리즘을 적용하여 서브픽셀 분해능으로 X축과 Y축의 기울기 정보를 고속으로 추출하였다. CCD센서에 촬상되는 하트만 센싱 점영상에서 각각의 점 영상은 중심점으로부터 대칭형으로 강도가 분포되어 있다고 가정할 수 있으나 전체 점영상의 각 점을 분석한 결과 비대칭적으로 예외적인 강도 분포를 갖는 점영상도 일부 발견되었다. 파면 왜곡이 없는 하트만 센싱 점영상으로부터 X, Y축 파면 왜곡 기울기 값을 추출한 결과 CCD 센서 픽셀의 기저 노이즈가 큰 불안정한 영역에서 기울기 값이 반복적으로 크게 추출되어 파면왜곡보정 시스템의 보정 성능을 떨어뜨리는 효과가 나타났다.

Surface quality of a micro-processed sample with laser has been investigated by using of scanning confocal microscope(SCM) and atomic force microscope(AFM). Samples are bump electrodes and ITO glass of LCD module used in a mobile phone and a wafer surface scribed by UV laser. A image of $140\times120{\mu}m^2$ is obtained within 1 second by SCM because scan speed of a x-axis and y-axis are 1kHz and 1Hz, respectively. AFM is able to measure correctly hight and width of ITO and scribing depth and width of a wafer with a resolution less than 300 . However, the scan speed is slow and it is difficult to distinguish a surface composed of different nm kinds of materials. Results show that SCM is preferable to obtain a image of a sample composed of different kinds of material than AFM because the intensity of a reflected light from surface is different from each material.

For high speed visual inspection in semiconductor industries, it is essential to acquire two-dimensional images on regions of interests with a large field of view (FOV) and a high resolution simultaneously. In this paper, an imaging system is newly proposed to achieve high quality image in terms of precision and FOV, which is composed of single lens, a beam splitter, two camera sensors, and stereo image grabbing board. For simultaneously acquired object images from two camera sensors, Zhang's camera calibration method is applied to calibrate each camera first of all. Secondly, to find a mathematical mapping function between two images acquired from different view cameras, the matching matrix from multiview camera geometry is calculated based on their image homography. Through the image homography, two images are finally registered to secure a large inspection FOV. Here the inspection system of using multiple images from multiple cameras need very fast processing unit for real-time image matching. For this purpose, parallel processing hardware and software are utilized, such as Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA). As a result, we can obtain a matched image from two separated images in real-time. Finally, the acquired homography is evaluated in term of accuracy through a series of experiments, and the obtained results shows the effectiveness of the proposed system and method.
