This paper deals with the real-time monitoring and control system using PC, PDA(Win CE embedded device) and PCS(based BREW platform). The camera attached to the server captures the moving target, and the captured frame of color image is encoded in JPEG for image compression at the server. The client(PC, PDA, PCS) receives the image data from the remote server and the received image is decoded from decompression. We use the TCP/IP protocol to send the image frames. The client can control the position of the camera by sending the control command to the server. Two DC servo motors for the camera are controlled in any directions, up-down and left-right, by the controller which is communicating with the server via the serial communication to get the control command. In this way, on the client we can monitor the moving images at the server and also control the position of the camera.

This paper deals with the algorithm development that inspects defects such as Lens Focus, Black Defect, Dim Defect, Color Defect, White Balance, and Line Defect caused by the process of Compact Camera Module (CCM). These days the demand of CCM goes on increasing in various types like PDA, a cellular phone and PC camera every year. However, owing to the defect inspection of CCM by the semiskilled work the average inspection time of CCM takes about 40 to 50 seconds. As time goes by the efficiency takes a sudden turn for the worse because workers must inspect with seeing a monitor directly. In this paper, to solve these problems, we developed the imaging processing algorithm to inspect the defects in captured image of assembled CCM. The performances of the developed inspection system and its algorithm are tested on many samples. Experimental results reveal that the proposed system can focus the lens of CCM within 5s and we can recognize various types of defect of CCM modules with good accuracy and high speed.

LED lighting is sensitive because it made by semiconductor. So it has been researched about radiation of heat technologies for a long time. In addition, measurement and assessment a radiation of heat also conducted. It is necessary to get a date of accuracy temperature on the board after LED driven for measuring Junction temperature of the LED Lighting. For this research, we use 5 chip which is 4 W power on top of LED lighting board made by aluminum. Thermal camera effects to emissivity depending on material and property of the surface in LED board because it determines thermal energy which emitted from material surface. it is not only thermal camera has not a standard about emissivity. It has an error of temperature when emissivity was measured by thermal camera. we confirmed that emissivity and reflected temperature depending on color and quality of the surface throughout experiment.

This paper presents a localization system based on the use of electric compass and tracking IR light source. Digital RGB(Red, Green, Blue)signal of digital CMOS Camera is sent to CPLD which converts the color image to binary image at 30 frames per second. CMOS camera has IR filter and UV filter in front of CMOS cell. The filters cut off above 720nm light source. Binary output data of CPLD is sent to DSP that rapidly tracks the IR light source by moving Camera tilt DC motor. At a robot toward north, electric compass signals and IR light source angles which are used for calculating the data of the location system. Because geomagnetic field is linear in local position, this location system is possible. Finally, it is shown that position error is within ${\pm}1.3cm$ in this system.

In this paper, we studied the performance evaluation of a vehicular rear-view camera through quantifying the image quality based on several objective criteria from the ISO (International Organization for Standardization). In addition, various experimental environments are defined considering the conditions under which a rear-view camera may need to operate. The process for evaluating the performance of a rear-view camera is composed of five objective criteria: noise test, resolution test, OECF (opto-electronic conversion function) test, color characterization test, and pincushion and barrel distortion tests. The proposed image quality quantification method then expresses the results of each test as a single value, allowing easy evaluation.

In this paper, the detection scheme of the spatial coordinates based on stereo camera for a intelligent path planning of an automatic mobile robot is proposed. In the proposed system, face area of a moving person is detected from a left image among the stereo image pairs by using the YCbCr color model and its center coordinates are computed by using the centroid method and then using these data, the stereo camera embedded on the mobile robot can be controlled for tracking the moving target in real-time. Moreover, using the disparity mad obtained from the left and right images captured by the tracking-controlled stereo camera system and the perspective transformation between a 3-D scene. and an image plane, depth information can be detected. Finally, based-on the analysis of these calculated coordinates, a mobile robot system is derived as a intelligent path planning and a estimation.

4S-Van is being developed in order to provide the spatial data rapidly and accurately. 4S-Van technique is a system for spatial data construction that is heart of 4S technique. Architecture of 4S-Van system consists of hardware integration part and post-processing part. Hardware part has GPS, INS, color CCD, camera, B/W CCD camera, infrared rays camera, and laser. Software part has GPS/INS integration algorithm, coordinate conversion, lens correction, camera orientation correction, and three dimension position production. In this paper, we suggest that adequate 4S-Van design is needed according to application environment from various test results.

This paper propose a localization method using color landmark that is applicable to mobile intelligent robot. The color landmarks are attached in the indoor ceiling. The world coordinate of robot is estimated by color patterns and the coordinates of landmarks. A landmark is composed of 4color and these 4 colors are sorted in a line. All of landmarks have a main color which indicates direction of robot. Other 3 colors are the combination of 5 kind of colors. The CCD camera is installed on the top of robot to observe the landmarks in the ceiling.

This paper presents a system of road extraction for traffic images from a single camera. The road in the images is subject to large changes in appearance because of environmental effects. The proposed system is based on the integration of color correlograms and random forest. The color correlogram depicts the color properties of an image properly. Using the random forest, road extraction is formulated as a learning paradigm. The combined effects of color correlograms and random forest create a robust system capable of extracting the road in very changeable situations.

We introduce a method of color-coded illumination that is simple and fast. The purpose of this study is the real-time shape measurement of three-dimensional object by using color-coded information. The object is illuminated by a prism color spectrum. A color spectrum of a white-light source is imaged onto the object by illumination from one certain direction. The object is observed by a color CCD camera from a direction of observation, which is different from the direction of illumination. It can be evaluated by the red, blue, green using a inherence colors of hue value are good point.
