In this paper a 3D position measuring device that finds the 3D position of an arbitarily placed object using a camersa system is introduced. The camera system consists of three stepping motors and a CCD camera and a laser. The viewing direction of the camera is controlled by two stepping motors (pan and tilt motors) and the direction of a laser is also controlled by a stepping motors(laser motor). If an object in a remote place is selected from a live video image the x,y,z coordinates of the object with respect to the reference coordinate system can be obtained by calculating the distance from the camera to the object using a structured light scheme and by obtaining the orientation of the camera that is controlled by two stepping motors. The angles o f stepping motors are controlled by a SGI O2 workstation through a parallel port. The mathematical model of the camera and the distance measuring system are calibrated to calculate an accurate position of the object. This 3D position measuring device can be used to acquire information that is necessary to monitor a remote place.

Multi-camera systems have been widely used as cost-effective tools for the collection of geospatial data for various applications. In order to fully achieve the potential accuracy of these systems for object space reconstruction, careful system calibration should be carried out prior to data collection. Since the structural integrity of the involved cameras' components and system mounting parameters cannot be guaranteed over time, multi-camera system should be frequently calibrated to confirm the stability of the estimated parameters. Therefore, automated techniques are needed to facilitate and speed up the system calibration procedure. The automation of the multi-camera system calibration approach, which was proposed in the first part of this paper, is contingent on the automated detection, localization, and identification of the object space signalized targets in the images. In this paper, the automation of the proposed camera calibration procedure through automatic target extraction and labelling approaches will be presented. The introduced automated system calibration procedure is then implemented for a newly-developed multi-camera system while considering the optimum configuration for the data collection. Experimental results from the implemented system calibration procedure are finally presented to verify the feasibility the proposed automated procedure. Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the estimated system calibration parameters from two-calibration sessions is also presented to confirm the stability of the cameras' interior orientation and system mounting parameters.

본 논문에서는 인터넷 상에서 실시간 영상 감시를 위한 웹 카메라 시스템의 구조를 제안하고 구현하였다. 구현된 웹 카메라 시스템은 구현 방식에 따라 두 가지로 개발되었다. 첫 번째 시스템에서는 웹서버와 카메라 서버가 서로 동일한 시스템 상에서 구현되어 동작되도록 하였다. 이 시스템에서는 동영상 파일이 주기적으로 JPEG 파일로 압축되어 인터넷을 통하여 사용자에게 전달된다. 두 번째 시스템에서는 웹서버와 카메라 서버가 서로 다른 시스템에 구현되도록 하여 카메라 서버가 동영상 파일을 웹서버로 전송하면 최종적으로 웹서버에 접속한 사용자에게 동영상 파일을 전송하도록 하였다. JPEG으로 압축된 영상 이미지의 전송을 위하여 본 시스템은 자바 애플릿과 자바 스크립트를 사용하여 개발되었는데 이는 ActiveX나 스크립트 언어만을 사용한 경우보다 운영시스템과 브라우저에 독립적으로 동작할 수 있게 하기 위함이다. 본 논문에서 구현된 두 가지 구조의 시스템의 성능 비교를 위하여 각 시스템에 대하여 전송되는 데이터의 트래픽을 초당 바이트 단위로 측정하여 그 결과를 시뮬레이션 하였다.

보안이 중요시되는 공간에서 지능형 감시 시스템의 필요성이 점차 중요시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 embedded Linux 기반의 Mobile Robot에 Network Camera를 탑재하여 침입자를 추적할 수 있는 시스템 구현에 목적을 두고 있다. Network Camera부터 Wireless Lan을 이용하여 서버로 영상을 전송하고, 서버에서 블록매칭 알고리즘을 이용하여 침입자의 이동경로를 파악하며 침입자에 대한 방향 정보를 전송하여 침입자를 추적한다. 로봇이 침입자를 추적함에 따라 침입자의 유효 영상을 얻는다. 본 논문에 의해서 구현된 시스템은 다른 감시 시스템과 연동하여 지능형 감시 시스템으로서 신뢰성을 더할 수 있다.

In this paper, we discuss the tracking system for a wheelchair which can follow the path of a human target such as a nurse in hospital. The problem of human tracking is that it requires recognition of feature as well as the tracking of human positions. For this purpose the use of a high cost visual sensor such as laser finder or streo camera makes the tracking a high cost additional expense. This paper proposes the tracking system uses a low cost infrared range-finder and CCD camera, The Infrared range-finder and CCD camera can create a target candidate through each target recognition algorithm. and this information is fused in order to reduce the uncertainties of a target decision and correct the positional error of the human. The effectiveness of the proposed system is verified through experiments.

In this paper, we design an on-road vehicle detection system based on the combination of a camera and a LIDAR system. In the proposed system, the candidate area is selected from the LIDAR data using a grouping algorithm. Then, the selected candidate area is scanned by an SVM to find an actual vehicle. The morphological edged images are used as features in a camera. The principal components of the edged images called eigencar are employed to train the SVM. We conducted experiments to show that the on-road vehicle detection system developed in this paper demonstrates about 80% accuracy and runs with 20 scans per second on LIDAR and 10 frames per second on camera.

In this paper, a computer automated system has been developed for measuring the focal length of camera lens using the MTF(Modurar Transfer Function) based on the signal processing around a line CCD and autocollimator. An optical Path for the focal length measurement system has been designed around thelight sourec, collimator, camera, mirror and the line CCD. The eyepiece of the collimator is replaced byline CCD, and the mirror is moved along the focal axis by a PC driven step motor. An efficient method has been designed for finding the optimum MTF value for the focal length based on the least squares approach. The developed system is fullycomputer automated: signal transmission to and from the camera, MTF evaluation based on the line CCD, step motor contorl, etc. The developed system has been applied to a practical camera manufacturing process and demonstrated its performance

In this paper, we present a low-cost fire detection system using a thermal camera and a smartphone. The developed system collects thermal and RGB videos from the developed camera. To detect fire, candidate fire regions are extracted from videos obtained using a thermal camera. The block mean of variation of adjacent frames is measured to analyze the dynamic characteristics of the candidate fire regions. After analyzing the dynamic characteristics of regions of interest, a fire is determined by the candidate fire regions. In order to evaluate the performance of our system, we compared with a smoke detector, a heat detector, and a flame detector. In the experiments, our fire detection system showed the excellent performance in detecting fire with an overall accuracy rate of 97.8 %.

This paper presents the design and implementation of an embedded image stabilization control system for a mobile phone with a built-in camera. Image stabilization is a family of techniques for reducing image blur resulting from minute camera shake due to hand-held shooting, thereby allowing the use of shutter speeds slower than values normally required to obtain sharp images. A mechanical image stabilizer mechanism developed for a camera mobile phone is introduced and a digital control system as a part of the image stabilization system is designed and implemented on an 8-bit microcontroller with integer arithmetic in C. This paper focuses primarily on issues that need to be taken into consideration for fixed-point implementation of the digital controller. Several experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the implemented image stabilization control system.
