본 논문은 넓은 시야각을 갖는 어안렌즈로 촬영 시, 발생하는 방사 왜곡을 보정하는데 있어 왜곡의 중심을 추정하는 방법을 제안한다. FOV 왜곡 보정 모델의 경우 렌즈의 왜곡중심을 별도로 추정하지 않기 때문에 영상의 중심점과 렌즈의 왜곡중심의 오차가 클수록 왜곡보정의 정확도가 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 이에 본 논문은 광각 렌즈에서 FOV 모델과 2D 패턴을 이용하여 렌즈의 왜곡중심 추정을 통해 보다 정밀한 왜곡 보정 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 FOV 모델로부터 발생하는 왜곡곡선을 직선과 비교하여 곡선과 직선의 차가 가장 적은 위치를 왜곡의 중심으로 설정한다. 이 방법을 통하여 렌즈와 센서 중심점의 오차에 의해 발생하는 왜곡 중심 추정의 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있었고 실험결과를 통하여 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 인공위성을 비롯한 우주물체 관측 및 감시를 위한 전자광학 관측 장비인 망원경의 탐지 성능에 대한 분석을 수행한다. M&S(Modeling & Simulation)를 통한 분석을 위해, 위성 궤도 모델, 망원경 모델, 그리고 지구 대기 모델을 구현하고, 위성을 관측하는 탐지 시나리오를 구성한다. 탐지 시나리오를 바탕으로 지향각 명령 오차를 적용하여 망원경 주요 사양인 시야각(Field of View, FOV)에 따른 지향 성능을 분석하고, 신호대잡음비(Signal-to-Noise Ratio, SNR)를 통해 탐지 여부를 판별하여 검출기 화소수와 시야각(FOV)에 따른 탐지 성능을 분석한다. 본 논문의 M&S 분석 결과는 망원경 시야각(FOV)이 상대적으로 클수록 지향각 명령 오차가 존재하더라도 지향 성능은 좋지만, 대기 환경의 영향으로 화소수가 높고 망원경 시야각(FOV)이 작을수록 탐지 성능이 높아짐을 보여준다. 그래서 시야각(FOV)과 화소수 등의 망원경 주요 사양은 본 논문에서 수행한 M&S 분석 결과 및 종합적인 운용 상황을 고려하여 결정해야 한다.

한 장의 영상에 보다 많은 영상정보를 담기 위해서는 넓은 시야각이 필요하다. 넓은 시야각을 갖는 영상은 보안, 감시, 원격화상회의, 이동로봇 등의 산업분야에서 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 광각의 파노라마 영상을 획득하기 위해 쌍곡면 실린더형 반사체를 이용한 영상획득 방법을 제안한다. 일반적인 응용 예에서 수직화각 보다 수평화각이 중요하므로 수직방향으로는 평면거울과 같고, 수평방향으로 쌍곡선 형태를 갖는 실린더형 반사체를 설계하였다. 광학적 성능 분석을 위해 광선추적법을 통해 본 쌍곡면 실린더형 반사체 영상계의 영상획득 모델을 구하였으며, 쌍곡면 실린더형 반사체를 실제 제작하였고, 영상 실험을 통해 광각 영상획득 성능을 검증하였다. 제안하는 영상 시스템은 기존 방법에 비해 경제적이며, 별도의 영상처리 없이 수평화각 210도에 이르는 광각의 실시간 파노라마 영상을 획득할 수 있었다.

The evaluation of the print quality of 3D printing has traditionally relied on manual work using dimensional measurements. However, the dimensional measurement method has an error value that depends on the person who measures it. Therefore, we propose the design of a new print quality measurement method that can be automatically measured using the field-of-view (FOV) model and the intersection over union (IoU) technique. First, the height information of the modeling is acquired from a camera; the output is measured by a sensor; and the images of the top and isometric views are acquired from the FOV model. The height information calculates the height ratio by calculating the percentage of modeling and output, and compares the 2D contour of the object on the image using the FOV model. The contour of the object is obtained from the image for 2D contour comparison and the IoU is calculated by comparing the areas of the contour regions. The accuracy of the automated measurement technique for determining, which derives the print quality value was calculated by averaging the IoU value corrected by the measurement error and the height ratio value.

A wide field-of-view (FOV) image contains more visual information than a conventional image. This study proposes a new type of hyperbolic mirror for wide FOV image acquisition. The proposed mirror consists of a hyperbolic cylindrical section and a bowl-shaped hyperbolic omnidirectional section. Using an imaging system with this mirror, it is possible to achieve a $213.8^{\circ}$ horizontal and a $126.94^{\circ}$ vertical maximum FOV. Parameters of each section of the mirror are designed to be continuous at the junction of the two parts, and the resultant image is seamless. The image-acquisition model is obtained using ray-tracing optics. To rectify the geometrical distortion of the original image due to the mirror, an image-restoration algorithm based on conformal projection is presented in this study. The performance of the proposed imaging system with the hyperbolic mirror and its image-restoration algorithm are verified by experiments.

In order to contain as much information as possible in a single image, a wide FOV(Field-Of-View) imaging system is required. The catadioptric imaging system with hyperbolic cylinder mirror can acquire over 180 degree horizontal FOV realtime panorama image by using a conventional camera. Because the hyperbolic cylinder mirror has a curved surface in horizontal axis, the original image acquired from the imaging system has the geometrical distortion, which requires the image processing algorithm for reconstruction. In this paper, the image reconstruction algorithms for two cases are studied: (1) to obtain an image with uniform angular resolution and (2) to obtain horizontally rectilinear image. The image acquisition model of the hyperbolic cylinder mirror imaging system is analyzed by the geometrical optics and the image reconstruction algorithms are proposed based on the image acquisition model. To show the validity of the proposed algorithms, experiments are carried out and presented in this paper. The experimental results show that the reconstructed images have a uniform angular resolution and a rectilinear form in horizontal axis, which are natural to human.

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the reliability of measurements performed on three-dimensional (3D) virtual models of maxillary defects obtained using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and 3D optical scanning. Materials and Methods: Mechanical cavities simulating maxillary defects were prepared on the hard palate of nine cadavers. Images were obtained using a CBCT unit at three different fields-of-views (FOVs) and voxel sizes: 1) $60{\times}60mm$ FOV, $0.125mm^3$ ($FOV_{60}$); 2) $80{\times}80mm$ FOV, $0.160mm^3$ ($FOV_{80}$); and 3) $100{\times}100mm$ FOV, $0.250mm^3$ ($FOV_{100}$). Superimposition of the images was performed using software called VRMesh Design. Automated volume measurements were conducted, and differences between surfaces were demonstrated. Silicon impressions obtained from the defects were also scanned with a 3D optical scanner. Virtual models obtained using VRMesh Design were compared with impressions obtained by scanning silicon models. Gold standard volumes of the impression models were then compared with CBCT and 3D scanner measurements. Further, the general linear model was used, and the significance was set to p=0.05. Results: A comparison of the results obtained by the observers and methods revealed the p values to be smaller than 0.05, suggesting that the measurement variations were caused by both methods and observers along with the different cadaver specimens used. Further, the 3D scanner measurements were closer to the gold standard measurements when compared to the CBCT measurements. Conclusion: In the assessment of artificially created maxillary defects, the 3D scanner measurements were more accurate than the CBCT measurements.

Wide FOV imaging systems are important for acquiring rich visual information. A conventional catadioptric imaging system deploys a camera in front of a curved mirror to acquire a wide FOV image. This is a cumbersome setup and causes unnecessary occlusions in the acquired image. In order to reduce both the burden of the camera deployment and the occlusions in the images, this study uses a secondary planar mirror in the catadioptric imaging system. A compact design of the catadioptric imaging system and a condition for the position of the secondary planar mirror to satisfy the central imaging are presented. The image acquisition model of the catadioptric imaging system with a secondary planar mirror is discussed based on the principles of geometric optics in this study. As a backward mapping, the acquired image is restored to a distortion-free image in the experiments.

A-PET is a quad-head PET scanner developed for use in small-animal imaging. The dimensions of its volumetric field of view (FOV) are $46.1{\times}46.1{\times}46.1mm^3$ and the gap between the detector modules has been minimized in order to provide a highly sensitive system. However, such a small FOV together with the quad-head geometry causes image quality degradation. The main factor related to image degradation for the quad-head PET is the mispositioning of events caused by the penetration effect in the detector. In this paper, we propose a precise method for modelling the system at the high spatial resolution of the A-PET using a LOR (line of response) based ML-EM (maximum likelihood expectation maximization) that allows for penetration effects. The proposed system model provides the detection probability of every possible ray-path via crystal sampling methods. For the ray-path sampling, the sub-LORs are defined by connecting the sampling points of the crystal pair. We incorporate the detection probability of each sub-LOR into the model by calculating the penetration effect. For comparison, we used a standard LOR-based model and a Monte Carlo-based modeling approach, and evaluated the reconstructed images using both the National Electrical Manufacturers Association NU 4-2008 standards and the Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission simulation toolkit (GATE). An average full width at half maximum (FWHM) at different locations of 1.77 mm and 1.79 mm are obtained using the proposed system model and standard LOR system model, which does not include penetration effects, respectively. The standard deviation of the uniform region in the NEMA image quality phantom is 2.14% for the proposed method and 14.3% for the LOR system model, indicating that the proposed model out-performs the standard LOR-based model.

적외선 탐색기에 널리 사용되는 레티클 시스템은 시계(field of view ; FOV) 상에 존재하는 표적의 위치를 구하는 대표적인 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 동심원(concentric annular ring) 레티클 탐색기의 표적 추적 성능을 시뮬레이션할 수 있는 효과적인 툴이 제안된다. 동적인 시뮬레이션을 위해 대상 탐색기는 Matlab-Simulink 상에서 구성되었으며, 이는 탐색기 및 무기의 개발 등이 필수적이다. 시계상에 섬광탄 등의 대응능력이 존재하는 경우, 표적에 대한 정확한 추적은 매우 어렵게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 대응능력의 영향을 줄이기 위해 입력 신호와 기준 신호와의 상관 관계를 이용하는 반대응 기법이 제안된다. 구성된 툴 상에서 제안된 방법이 기존 방법에 비해 보다 효과적인 표적 추적 결과를 보임을 확인하였다.
