This paper presents the development of estimation model and control method based on the new computer vision. This proposed control method is accomplished using a sequential estimation scheme that permits placement of the rigid body in each of the two-dimensional image planes of monitoring cameras. Estimation model with six parameters is developed based on a model that generalizes known 4-axis scara robot kinematics to accommodate unknown relative camera position and orientation, etc. Based on the estimated parameters,depending on each camers the joint angle of robot is estimated by the iteration method. The method is tested experimentally in two ways, the estimation model test and a three-dimensional rigid body placement task. Three results show that control scheme used is precise and robust. This feature can open the door to a range of application of multi-axis robot such as assembly and welding.

본 논문에서는 공압출 다층 필름 제조공정에서 수지의 품질에 영향을 주는 외관상의 결함을 검사하는 비젼 시스템을 제안한다. 필름 생산 과정에서는 흑점이나 주름 등을 포함한 다양한 결함이 발생할 수 있는데, 명암이 명확히 구별되는 결함도 있지만 그렇지 않은 결함들은 필름의 특성에 의해 검출 및 분류가 어려운 경우가 많다. 제안된 논문에서는 전체 검사시스템의 소개와 함께 결함의 종류 분류와 검출 및 분류 방법을 제안하는데, 특히 애매한 결함의 구분을 위해 지역적 이진패턴(LBP)에 기반한 텍스쳐 분석 방법을 이용한다. 실험을 통해 제안된 시스템 및 방법이 필름 생산과정의 다양한 결함들을 잘 검출하고 분류하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

시청자의 개입에 따라 내용이 변하는 영상은 영상산업 및 컴퓨터 그래픽스 분야에서 대중들의 새로운 흥미를 불러일으킨다. 그러나, 그러한 영상을 생성하는 시스템을 만드는 일은 제한된 개수의 영상으로 다양하면서 온전한 영상의 변화를 만들어야 하고, 사용자에게 그 변화를 조정하는 권한을 주어야 하기 때문에 어려운 일이다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제를 해결하는 한 방법으로 개별적인 실사 촬영물을 이용하여 인터랙티브 드라마를 생성하는 시스템을 제안한다. 이 시스템은 개별적인 영상 알갱이들을 부드럽게 연결하여, 다양한 줄거리와 완결된 구조를 갖춘 드라마를 생성한다. 또한, 사용자는 생성된 드라마의 내용, 길이, 장르, 등장인물을 원하는 대로 바꿀 수 있다. 이러한 시스템을 만들기 위하여 씬(scene)을 새로운 방법으로 모델링 하였고, 씬들을 적절히 선택하여 연결하기 위한 방법으로 씬 그래프(scene graph)를 제안한다. 최종 영상과 사용자와의 상호 작용을 위해서는 비젼, 모션, 그리고 스케치 기반 인터페이스를 제시한다. 끝으로 설문 조사를 통해 이 시스템의 유용성을 평가한다.

In this paper, we propose a visual multi-touch air input device using vision cameras. The implemented device provides a barehanded interface which copes with the multi-touch operation. The proposed device is easy to apply to the real-time systems because of its low computational load and is cheaper than the existing methods using glove data or 3-dimensional data because any additional equipment is not required. To do this, first, we propose an image processing algorithm based on the HSV color model and the labeling from obtained images. Also, to improve the accuracy of the recognition of hand gestures, we propose a motion recognition algorithm based on the geometric feature points, the skeleton model, and the Kalman filter. Finally, the experiments show that the proposed device is applicable to remote controllers for video games, smart TVs and any computer applications.

The furrow calculation and traffic measurement of sailing ship using computer vision are useful methods to prevent maritime accident by predicting the possibility of an accident occurrence in advance. In this paper, sailing ships are recognized using image erosion, differential operator and minimax value, which can be verified directly because the calculated coordinates are displayed on electronic navigation chart. The developed algorithm based on area information of this paper has the advantage which is compared to the conventional radar system focused on point information.

There are many recent menial manufacturing firms not equipped with automatic checking system in their final process. And the check is based on the human perception so the automatic checking system is needed for the consistency and the accuracy of the checking process to elevate the productivity and the Quality. As the performance of computer systems and the vision systems has been increased the cost for the system is reduced and their applicable algorithms have been developed. In this study we develop monitor checking system which is low-cost, fast, and easy to adopt by the small-scaled manufacturing firms. The system is based on the computer vision techniques, and is equipped with the GUI interface and checking functions such as centering, yoke rotation, pincushion. sizing. Monitor checking system developed in this study can be used in the final checking process thereby we expect the synergy effects both on the efficiency of production and on the reduction of the cost for the facility investments.

Despite the number of backlight manufacturer is increased as the market of flat panel display equipments and related development devices is enlarged, the inspection based on the human eye is still used in many backlight production lines. The defects such as particle, spot and scratch on the light emitting surface of the backlight prevent the LCD device from displaying the colors correctly. From that manual inspection it is difficult to maintain the quality of backlight consistently because the accuracy and the speed of the inspection may change with the physical condition of the operater. In this paper we studied on the development of automatic backlight surface defect inspection system. For this, we made up of the computer vision system and we developed the main program with various user interfaces to operate the inspection system effectively. And we developed the image processing module to extract the defect information. Furthermore, we presented the labeling process to reconstruct defect regions using the labeling table and the defect index. From the experimental results, we found that our system can detect all defect regions identified from human eye and it is sufficient to substitute for the conventional surface inspection.
