This paper proposes a method for measurement three-dimensional trajectories of bubbles generated around a swimmer's arms from stereo high-speed camera videos. This method is based on two techniques: two-dimensional trajectory estimation in single-camera images and trajectory pair matching in stereo-camera images. The two-dimensional trajectory is estimated by block matching using similarity of bubble shape and probability of bubble displacement. The trajectory matching is achieved by a consistensy test using epipolar constraint in multiple frames. The experimental results in two-dimensional trajectory estimation showed the estimation accuracy of 47% solely by the general optical flow estimation, whereas 71% taking the bubble displacement into consideration. This concludes bubble displacement is an efficient aspect in this estimation. In three-dimensional trajectory estimation, bubbles were visually captured moving along the flow generated by an arm; which means an efficient material for swimmers to swim faster.

Recently, robotic bin-picking tasks have drawn considerable attention, because flexibility is required in robotic assembly tasks. Generally, stereo camera systems have been used widely for robotic bin-picking, but these have two limitations: First, computational burden for solving correspondence problem on stereo images increases calculation time. Second, errors in image processing and camera calibration reduce accuracy. Moreover, the errors in robot kinematic parameters directly affect robot gripping. In this paper, we propose a method of correcting the bin-picking error by using trinocular vision system which consists of two stereo cameras andone hand-eye camera. First, the two stereo cameras, with wide viewing angle, measure object's pose roughly. Then, the 3rd hand-eye camera approaches the object, and corrects the previous measurement of the stereo camera system. Experimental results show usefulness of the proposed method.

본 논문은 저해상도의 깊이 카메라와 고해상도의 양안식 카메라를 결합한 복합형 카메라 시스템에서 관심영역(region of interest, ROI)이 향상된 깊이맵을 생성하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 깊이 카메라로 획득한 깊이 정보를 3차원 워핑(warping)하여 좌영상의 ROI 깊이맵을 생성한다. 그런 다음, 양안식 카메라로 획득한 좌우영상의 배경 영역을 스테레오 정합하여 좌영상의 배경 깊이맵을 생성한다. 최종적으로, ROI 깊이맵과 배경 깊이맵을 결합하여 최종 깊이맵을 생성한다. 제안하는 방법으로 생성한 고해상도 깊이맵은 기존의 스테레오 정합 방법보다 ROI에 정확한 깊이 정보를 제공한다.

Underwater CCTV camera systems are increasingly replaced the traditional net approach of assessing the species, numbers and aggregation patterns of marine animals distributing around the artificial reefs installed in the inshore fishing grounds, in particular, in relation to the biological investigation of behavior and distribution patterns of target fishes. In relation to these needs, we developed a multi-directional underwater CCTV camera system to use in detecting and tracking marine animals in the artificial reef ground. The marine targets to be investigated were independently tracked by using a camera module toward the bottom and four camera modules installed in the interval of $90^{\circ}$ in horizontal plane and inclination of $45^{\circ}$ in vertical plane of the CCTV system without the overlap of video frames by each camera module. From the results of several field tests at sea, we believe that the developed multi-directional underwater CCTV camera system will contribute to a better understanding in evaluating the effect of artificial reefs installed in the inshore fishing grounds.

Recent works have shown that the geometric constraint can be harnessed to boost the performance of CNN-based camera localization. However, the existing strategies are limited to imposing image-level constraint between pose pairs, which is weak and coarse-gained. In this paper, we introduce a pixel-level epipolar geometry constraint to vanilla localization framework without the ground-truth 3D information. Dubbed EpiLoc, our method establishes the geometric relationship between pixels in different images by utilizing the epipolar geometry thus forcing the network to regress more accurate poses. We also propose a variant called EpiSingle to cope with non-sequential training images, which can construct the epipolar geometry constraint based on a single image in a self-supervised manner. Extensive experiments on the public indoor 7Scenes and outdoor RobotCar datasets show that the proposed pixel-level constraint is valuable, and helps our EpiLoc achieve state-of-the-art results in the end-to-end camera localization task.

새로운 기술의 발전과 도입은 영화를 만드는 과정에서 소비에 이르기까지 광범위한 영역에 큰 변화를 초래하기도 한다. 프랑스의 영화감독이자 이론가인 아스트뤽은 16mm 카메라의 등장에 주목하며 영화가 다른 예술 장르처럼 작가(감독)의 비전을 실현하는 도구로 활용될 것이라 예견했다. 그의 주장을 증명하듯, 프랑스의 누벨바그와 시네마 베리테의 감독들은 가벼워진 카메라를 손에 들고 거리로 나가 현실의 모습들을 포착하며 기존 할리우드 스튜디오와 차별되는 영화를 만들었다. 핸드헬드 카메라는 감독들에게 민첩한 움직임과 기동성을 제공했고, 이를 바탕으로 영화는 다양한 종류의 현실을 포착할 수 있었다. 미국의 존카사베츠를 포함한 다른 감독들도 핸드헬드 촬영에 주목했고, 결과적으로 핸드헬드 카메라는 대표적인 촬영방식의 하나로 자리를 잡았다. 하지만 기술은 중립적이고, 하나의 촬영방식이 하나의 미학 혹은 사조를 위해서 봉사하지 않는다. 한 때, 현실을 기록하고 포착하기 위해 봉사하던 핸드헬드 촬영은 이제는 정반대의 목적을 위해서 혹은 그저 가상의 존재에게 현실적인 아우라를 만들어주기 위해서 사용되기도 한다.

The camera system we researched has two stepping motors for the pan and tilt operation, and the human face tracking algorithm. Recently, this kind of the camera is used in PC communication, telecommunication vision meeting and tele-lecture. This paper discusses the smooth speed control method of this camera when the face is moved to up, down, left and right direction. We used a mean shift algorithm for the face-tracking, proposed the speed control algorithm using a fuzzy logic and certified this characteristics with the experiment.

Smart phone에 실장되는 카메라 모듈은 Focus 동작에 따라 2가지 타입이 있다. AF(Auto focus) camera module과 FF(Fixed focus) camera module 2가지 타입이다. AF Camera module은 Lens의 위치를 이동하여 자동으로 초점을 맞추는 방식이며, FF camera module은 Lens의 위치가 고정된 상태로 초점을 맞추는 방식이다. EDOF camera module은 Lens의 위치가 고정된 상태에서 AF 모듈처럼 EDOF 알고리즘을 사용하여 초점을 맞추는 기술을 적용한 모듈이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 EDOF camera module의 해상도 최적화를 구현한다.

We have developed a compact and cost-effective camera module on the basis of wafer-scale replication technology. A multiple-layered structure of several aspheric lenses in a mobile camera module is first assembled by bonding multiple glass-wafers on which 2-dimensional replica arrays of identical aspheric lenses are UV-embossed, followed by dicing the stacked wafers and packaging them with image sensor chips. We have demonstrated a VGA camera module fabricated by the wafer-scale replication processing with various UV-curable polymers having refractive indices between 1.4 and 1.6, and with three different glass-wafers of which both surfaces are embossed as aspheric lenses having 200 um sag-height and aspheric-coefficients of lens polynomials up to tenth-order. We have found that precise compensation in material shrinkage of the polymer materials is one of the most technical challenges, in order to achieve a higher resolution in wafer-scaled lenses for mobile camera modules.

In this paper we proposed a PTZ camera system which automatically detect and track moving objects in the image. Once a moving object is detected the PTZ camera traces it in real-time. We proposed the control system which does not depend on camera focusing functionality but uses the object's center, moving direction, distance and speed. We implemented the system with the TI DM6446 DSP chip. The experimental result shows that the system has excellent performance for high speed vehicles.
