본 논문에서는 정밀 측정 장비인 VMS(Video Measuring System)에서 줌을 서보 모터(servo motor)로 제어하는 자동화된 줌 렌즈 보정에 대하여 연구하였다. 이전의 자동화된 줌 렌즈의 연구들은 줌, 초점과 조리개 3 가지의 렌즈 설정에 대한 모든 카메라 파라미터들에 대하여 보정하였지만, VMS 의 자동화된 줌 렌즈의 보정은 줌의 렌즈 설정에 대해서만 보정한다. 줌 렌즈 설정에 의해 보정 되는 파라미터들은 줌에 따라 변화하는 이미지 중심과 픽셀 크기이다. 카메라의 외부 파라미터들을 제외한 이유는 VMS에서는 카메라가 움직이고 않고, 스테이지가 움직이면서 그에 따른 좌표 값을 주기 때문에 카메라의 이동과 회전에 대하여 보정할 필요가 없다. 줌을 조정하는 줌 단계가 많기 때문에 모든 줌 단계를 보정하기 위해서는 많은 시간과 노력이 든다. 본 논문에서는 보정 파라미터들을 최소 단계의 줌 렌즈 설정에 대하여 계산하고 계산되지 않은 영역들을 보간법으로 빠르고 효과적인 줌 렌즈 보정을 할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다.

Precise visual measurement applications, like video measuring system (VMS), use camera systems with motorized zoom lens for fast and efficient measurement. In this paper, we introduce an efficient calibration method for zoom lens of VMS controlled by servo motor. For the automated zoom lens calibration of the VMS, only zoom lens setting needs to be calibrated and parameters calibrated by zoom lens settings are image center and pixel size changed by zoom levels, The extrinsic parameters, like focus and iris, do not need to be calibrated since the parameters are usually fixed, It needs a lot of time and effort to calibrate the camera for ali the different zoom levels. In this paper, we also propose an efficient and fast zoom lens calibration method, which calculates the calibration parameters of the zoom lens settings for the minimum number of zoom levels and estimates other parameters for the uncalculated zoom levels using the interpolation of the calculated parameter values.

In this study, calibration technology that increases the alignment accuracy in large flexible flat panels was studied. For precise of calibration, a systematization of the calibration algorithm was established, and a calibration correction technique was studied to revise calibration errors. A coordinate systems of camera and UVW stage was established to get the global position of the mark, and equations for translational and rotational calibration were systematically derived based on geometrical analysis. Correction process for the calibration data was carried, and alignment experiments were performed sequentially in cases of the presence or absence of calibration-correction. Alignment results of both calibration correction and non-calibration correction showed accuracy performance less than 1㎛. On the other hand, the standard deviation in calibration-correction is smaller than non-calibration correction. Therefore, calibration correction showed improvement of the alignment repeatability.

Most of low cost digital cameras reveal relatively high lens distortion. The purpose of this research is to compensate the degradation of image quality due to the geometrical distortion of a lens system. The proposed method consists of two stages : calculation of a lens distortion coefficient by a simplified version of Tsai´s camera calibration and subsequent image warping of the original distorted image to remove geometrical distortion based on the calculated lens distortion coefficient. In the lens distortion coefficient calculation stage, a practical method for handling scale factor ratio and image center is proposed, after which its feasibility is shown by measuring the performance of distortion correction using a quantitative image quality measure. On the other hand, in order to apply image warping via inverse spatial mapping using the result of the lens distortion coefficient calculation stage, a cubic polynomial derived from an adopted radial distortion lens model must be solved. In this paper, for the purpose of real-time operation, which is essential for embedding into an information device, an approximated solution to the cubic polynomial is proposed in the form of a solution to a quadratic equation. In the experiment, potential for real-time implementation and equivalence in performance as compared with that from cubic polynomial solution are shown.

Due to the fact that fisheye lens can provide super wide angles with the minimum number of cameras, field-of-view over 180 degrees, many vehicles are attempting to mount the camera system. Not only use the camera as a viewing system, but also as a camera sensor, camera calibration should be preceded, and geometrical correction on the radial distortion is needed to provide the images for the driver's assistance. In this thesis, we introduce a geometric correction technique to minimize the loss of the image data from a vehicle fish-eye lens having a field of view over $180^{\circ}$, and a asymmetric distortion. Geometric correction is a process in which a camera model with a distortion model is established, and then a corrected view is generated after camera parameters are calculated through a calibration process. First, the FOV model to imitate a asymmetric distortion configuration is used as the distortion model. Then, we need to unify the axis ratio because a horizontal view of the vehicle fish-eye lens is asymmetrically wide for the driver, and estimate the parameters by applying a non-linear optimization algorithm. Finally, we create a corrected view by a backward mapping, and provide a function to optimize the ratio for the horizontal and vertical axes. This minimizes image data loss and improves the visual perception when the input image is undistorted through a perspective projection.

웹을 통해 보여지는 대부분의 이미지는 스캐너와 같은 입력 장치에 의해 이뤄진다. 그러나 모니터로 보여지는 이미지의 색과 실제 색의 차이로 인한 문제가 나타나면서 색보정에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 디지털 환경에서의 색상 차이는 같은 이미지라도 디지털 장치에서 입력되고 출력되는 값이 비 선형적이기 때문에 나타난다. 이에 본 연구는 스캐너에서 출력되는 디지털 값으로부터 실제색의 삼자극치를 예측하여 이를sRGB 규격으로 캘리브레이션 된 모니터로 정확하게 재현시키는 기술을 연구하였다. (중략)

In this paper, the evaluation procedure applying the limit state design method is studied to be consistent with the newly issued bridge design code in Korea. The live load factor for evaluation is proposed by calibrating for the target reliability index through reliability analysis. Using the actual bridge information collected for the representative bridge types in Korea, the load effects of the design live loads for the previous and current design codes are calculated and compared. The live load factor is calibrated through reliability analysis using the minimum required strength which equals to the load effect obtained for the example bridge. Bridge evaluation is performed by applying the live load factors for the evaluation level as well as design level. The load rating result is generally increased by applying the limit state design method compared to the previous design method and applying the proposed load factor for lowered target reliability index further increased the rating result.

A calibration jet system using separate blower is developed to calibrate a flow sensor effectively. Designed open circuit type mini calibration jet system, which has the dimension of $0.5m(W){\times}1.17m(H)$ is small compared with conventional calibration jet systems. The exit of nozzle has exchangeable contractions with a cross section area of $38.5cm^2$ , and a cross section area of $113.1cm^2$, respectively. The ranges of wind speed at exit of exchangeable nozzles are $7.5{\sim}42\;m/s$ and $1.8{\sim}16.5\;m/s$, respectively. The input power for the high pressure blower is 1.18kW. The turning vanes for corner was rolled flat plate parallel to the flow direction. The flow conditioning screen was located immediately downstream of the wide-angle diffuser. The honeycomb and two flow conditioning screens were located in the stagnation chamber. From the economical point of view and the simplicity of the calibration jet system set up and handling, it can be said that the developed calibration jet system is an effective calibration jet system. This system can also be used to calibrate the flow sensor with high resolution.

The measurement technique with dynamic shock sensor was widely used in academic experiment for blasting and impact. However, most of dynamic sensors are expensive so that it needs to be protected by external housing structures or damping devices. In this study, the calibration method for dynamic shock sensor under the distortion by external structures. Hopkinson pressure bar system was adopted to measure the input acceleration to the sensor, and it was compared to the acceleration measured by accelerometer with customized damping device. Consequently, it is conclued that this method can be useful to calibrate the dynamic shock sensor under the linear distortion.

Researchers have developed virtual reality environments to provide audience with more visually immersive experiences than previously possible. One of the most popular solutions to build the immersive VR space is a multi-projection technique. However, utilization of multiple projectors requires large spaces, expensive cost, and accurate geometry calibration among projectors. This paper presents a novel omnidirectional projection system with a single projector and a single spherical mirror.We newly designed the simple and intuitive calibration system to define the shape of environment and the relative position of mirror/projector. For successful image projection, our optimized omnidirectional image generation step solves image distortion produced by the spherical mirror and a calibration problem produced by unknown parameters such as the shape of environment and the relative position between the mirror and the projector. Additionally, the focus correction is performed to improve the quality of the projection. The experiment results show that our method can generate the optimized image given a normal panoramic image for omnidirectional projection in a rectangular space.
