Scintillator materials are widely used in the medical and industrial fields for imaging systems using gamma cameras. In this study, image evaluation is performed by modeling a gamma camera system based on a lutetium-yttrium oxyorthosilicate (LYSO) scintillation detector using a pinhole collimator that can improve the spatial resolution. A LYSO detector-based gamma camera system is modeled using a Monte Carlo simulation tool. The geometric concept of the pinhole collimator is designed using various magnification factors, and the spatial resolution is measured using the acquired source image. To evaluate the resolution, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) and natural image quality assessment (NIQE), a no-reference-based parameter, are used. We confirm that the FWHM and NIQE values decrease simultaneously when the diameter of the pinhole collimator increases. Additionally, we confirm that the spatial resolution improves as the magnification factor increases under the same pinhole diameter condition. Particularly, a 0.57 mm FWHM value is obtained using the modeled gamma camera system with a LYSO scintillation detector. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that a pinhole collimator with a LYSO scintillation detector is a promising gamma camera imaging system.

This paper's purpose i to obtain tracking information of an object using a camera. This system embodies to know tracking information of an object using Kalman filtering. As we use java program, it is possible to make system regardless of operating system, set up the system. We used an comfortable USB port camera everywhere without the capture board. We can use the internet by using the applet and JMF everywhere. We regard the camera as fixed.

Gravity waves have been searched for with a new all-sky camera system over Korean Peninsular. The all-sky camera consists of a 37mm/F4.5 Mamiya fisheye lens with a 180 dog field of view, interference filters and a 1024 by 1024 CCD camera. The all-sky camera has been tested near Daejeon city, and moved to Mt. Bohyun where the largest astronomical telescope is operated in Korea. A clear wave pattern was successfully detected in OH filter images over Mt. Bohyun on July 18, 2001, indicating that small scale coherent gravity waves perturbed OH airglow near the mesopause. Other wave features are since then observed with Na 589.8nm and OI 630.0nm filters. Since a Japanese all-sky camera network has already detected traveling ionospheric disturbances (TID) over the northeast-southwest range of Japanese islands, we hope our all-sky camera extends the coverage of the TID's observations to the west direction. We plan to operate our all-sky camera all year around to study seasonal variation of wave activities over the mid-latitude upper atmosphere.

로봇 카메라를 이해하고 제작하기 위해서는 로봇 카메라의 회전이나 공간 이동에 의해 발생하는 인접 이미지 간의 영상 왜곡에 대한 이해가 우선적으로 진행되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 영상 왜곡에 관한 수학적인 해석과 이 수학적인 해석을 렌즈 시스템과 연결하여 일반화하고 결국 로봇 카메라에서 일어나는 영상의 왜곡인 parallax 오차에 대한 유용한 해석 방정식을 얻었다. 이 방정식으로부터 로봇 카메라의 구조설계가 가능하게 되고 한 예로서 기존 구글의 ART 로봇 카메라에 대한 분석과 이해가 확장될 수 있었다.

The handling ability of containers at the terminal strongly depends on the performance of the cargo handling system such as RTGC(Rubber Tired Gantry Crane). This paper introduces a new guide line position measurement method using a camera for the RTGC which plays a important role in the harbor area. Because the line tracking is the basic technique for control system design of RTGC, it is necessary to develop a useful and reliable measurement system. If the displacement and angle of the RTGC relative to a guide line as trajectory to follow is obtained, the position of RTGC is calculated. Therefore, in this paper, a camera-based measurement system is introduced. The proposed measurement system is robust against light fluctuation and cracks of the guideline. This system consists of a camera and a PC which are installed at the lower side of the RTGC. Two edges of the guide line are detected from an input image taken by the camera, and these positions are determined in a Hough parameter space by using the Hough transformation method. From the experimental results, high accurate standard deviations were found as 0.98 pixel of the displacement and 0.24 degree of the angle, including robustness against lighting fluctuation and cracks of the guide line also.

This paper describes a automatic video surveillance system(AVSS) with long range and 360$^{\circ}$ coverage that is automatically rotated in an elevation over azimuth mode in response to the TTM(tracked target message) signal of vessels tracked by ARPA(automatic radar plotting aids) radar. This AVSS that is a video security and tracking system supported by ARPA radar, CCTV(closed-circuit television) camera system and other sensors to automatically identify and track, detect the potential dangerous situations such as collision accidents at sea and berthing/deberthing accidents in harbor, can be used in monitoring the illegal fishing vessels in inshore and offshore fishing ground, and in more improving the security and safety of domestic fishing vessels in EEZ(exclusive economic zone) area. The movement of the target vessel chosen by the ARPA radar operator in the AVSS can be automatically tracked by a CCTV camera system interfaced to the ECDIS(electronic chart display and information system) with the special functions such as graphic presentation of CCTV image, camera position, camera azimuth and angle of view on the ENC, automatic and manual controls of pan and tilt angles for CCTV system, and the capability that can replay and record continuously all information of a selected target. The test results showed that the AVSS developed experimentally in this study can be used as an extra navigation aid for the operator on the bridge under the confusing traffic situations, to improve the detection efficiency of small targets in sea clutter, to enhance greatly an operator s ability to identify visually vessels tracked by ARPA radar and to provide a recorded history for reference or evidentiary purposes in EEZ area.

When we deal with the image data through camera lens, much works are necessary for removing image distortions and obtaining accurate informations from the raw data. However, the calibration process is very complicated and requires many trials and errors. In this paper, 3 new approach to image processing is presented by developing a H/W vision system with a tracking camera. Using motor control with encoders the proposed tracking method tells us exact displacements of a moving object. Therefore this method does not require any calibration process for pin cusion. Owing to the mobility one camera covers wide ranges and, by lowering its height, the camera also obtains high resolution of the image. We first introduce the structure of the motion analysis system. Then the construced vision system is investigated by some experiments.

감시 정찰용 짐발 구조 시스템은 베어링들과 다른 기계 요소들로 구성된 복잡한 기계 장치이다. 이 시스템은 크게 카메라부와 카메라부를 지지하는 안정화 짐발로 나눌 수 있다. 영상 정보 취득을 위한 비행 중 짐발 구조 시스템은 정찰기로부터 전달되는 광범위한 진동수를 갖는 심각한 가진을 받게 된다. 비록 정찰기로부터 전달되는 안정화 짐발의 기초 가진이 카메라부의 진동을 유발할지라도 카메라부는 정확하고 선명한 영상을 기록하여야만 한다. 그러므로 카메라부를 포함한 전체 짐발 구조시스템의 고유진동수와 고유진동 모드를 분석하는 것이 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 베어링들의 효과를 고려한 시스템의 진동 특성 해석을 유한요소법에 의해 수행하였다. 뿐만 아니라, 0 Hz ~ 500 Hz 의 진동수 영역에서 조화응답해석을 통해 카메라부의 가속도 전달률을 계산하였다.
