  • 목적 : 자기공명영상(MRI) 획득시 피험자의 머리 움직임은 영상의 품질에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 영상 왜곡의 발생 원인이 되는 피험자의 움직임을 감지하기 위한 3차원 광학 추적 시스템을 제작하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 시스템은 두 대의 CCD 카메라 및 적외선 조명, 구형 반사 마커, 프레임 그래버(frame grabber)와 데스크탑 컴퓨터로 구성되었다. 두 대의 카메라를 이용하여 마커의 움직임을 관측하는 스테레오 비전 시스템을 제작하고, 카메라의 내부/외부 매개변수를 측정하는 캘리브레이션(calibration)과 측정된 매개변수를 이용하여 3차원 움직임 정보를 계산하는 삼각측량(triangulation)기법을 적용하였다. 캘리브레이션 보드와 피험자용 안경을 제작하여 움직임 추적의 정확도와 실제 MRI 영상 촬영 동안의 움직임 검출의 유효성을 평가하였다. 결과 : 반사 마커가 부착된 안경을 쓴 피험자들이 MRI 영상 촬영 동안 머리를 규칙적으로 움직였을 때, 시스템은 MRI의 고자장 환경 내에서도 영상에 영향을 주지 않고 피험자들의 움직임을 잘 감지했다. 결론 : 제작한 스테레오 비전 시스템은피험자의 머리 움직임을 잘 감지하였고, 실시간 알림 기능을 통해 피험자의 움직임을 중지할 수 있도록 알려줌으로써 MRI 영상에 영향을 주는 것을 최소화할 수 있다.

  • In this thesis we designed the vision system to inspect the defect of a back light unit of plat panel display device. The vision system is divided into hardware and inspection algorithm of defect. Hardware components consist of illumination part, robot-arm controller part and image-acquisition part. Illumination part is made of acrylic panel for light diffusion and five 36W FPL's(Fluorescent Parallel Lamp) and electronic ballast with low frequency harmonics. The CCD(Charge-Coupled Device) camera of image-acquisition part is able to acquire the bright image by the light coming from lamp. The image-acquisition part is composed of CCD camera and frame grabber. The robot-arm controller part has a role to let the CCD camera move to the desired position. To take inspections of surface images of a flat panel display it can be controlled and located every nook and comer. Images obtained by robot-arm and image-acquisition board are saved on the hard-disk through windows programming and are tested whether there are defects by using the image processing algorithms.

  • There are many inductive loop detectors under the highways in Korea. Among the other detectors, some are image detectors. Almost all image detectors are focused one or two lane of the road and are measuring traffic information. This paper proposes to an algorithm for detecting traffic information automatically from CCTV camera images installed on the highway. The information which is counted in one lane or two contains some critical errors by occlusion frequently in case of passing larger vehicles. In this paper, we use a tracking algorithm in which the detection area include all lanes, then the traffic informations are collected from the vehicles individually using difference images in this detection area. This tracking algorithm is better than lane by lane detecting algorithm. The experiment have been conducted two different real road scenes for 20 minutes. For the experiments, the images are provided with CCTV camera which was installed at Kiheung Interchange upstream of Kyongbu highway, and video recording images at Chungkye Tunnel. For image processing, images captured by frame-grabber board 30 frames per second, 640${\times}$480 pixels resolution and 256 gray-levels to reduce the total amount of data to be Interpreted.

  • Stereoscopic particle image velocimetry is a measurement technique to acquire three dimensional velocity field by two cameras. With a laser sheet illumination, the third velocity component can be deduced from out-of$.$plane velocity components using a stereoscopic matching method. Most industrial fluid flows are three dimensional turbulent flows, so it is necessary to use the stereoscopic PIV measurement method. However the existing stereoscopic PIV system seems hard to use since it is very expensive and complex. In this study we have developed a Miniature Stereo-PIV(MSPIV) system based on the concept of the Miniature PIV system which we have already developed. In this paper, we address the design and some primitive experimental results of the Miniature Stereo-PIV system. The Miniature Stereo-PIV system features relatively modest performances, but is considerably smaller, cheaper and easy to handle. The proposed Miniature Stereo-PIV system uses two one-chip-only CMOS cameras with digital output. Only two other chips are needed, one for a buffer memory and one for an interfacing logic that controls the system. Images are transferred to a personal computer (PC) via its standard parallel port. No extra hardware is required (in particular, no frame grabber board is needed).

  • A digital imaging system using Machintosh Ⅱ ci computer, high resolution Sony XC-77 CCD camera, Quickcapture Frame Grabber Board was evaluated for quantitative analysis of standardized periapical film with aluminum step wedge. The results were as follows: 1. Correlation between Al thickness and gray level was high-positively associated(r²=0.99, p<0.001). 2. Correlation between measured weight of experimental lesion and estimated relative lesion volume by digital subtracted radiography was also high-positively associated (r²=0.98, p<0.001). 3. As exposure time was increased, mean gray level was decreased(p<0.01) and slope of regression line between Al thickness and gray level was also decreased (p<0.01). And when the exposure time was shorter than 0.2 second, the value of r² was relatively low. On the basis of the above results, it is considered that this digital imaging system using a Macintosh Ⅱ ci computer & a high resolution CCD monochrome camera will be useful in evaluating digitized image from standardized periapical film quantitatively.

  • For two decades, there has been an active research to enhance the performances of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) systems. However, the resulting systems are somewhat very costly, cumbersome and delicate. In this paper, we address the design and some first experimental results of a PIV system belonging to the opposite paradigm. The Miniature PIV or MPIV system feature relatively modest performances, but is considerably smaller (out MPIV could hold in dia. 40 mm$\times$120 mm), cheaper (out MPIV total cost is less than $500) and easy to handle. Potential applications include industrial velocity sensors. The proposed MPIV system uses a one-chip-only CMOS camera with digital output. Only two other chips are needed, one for a buffer memory and one for an interfacing logic that controls the system. Images are transferred to a personal computer (PC or laptop) via its standard parallel port. No extra hardware is required (in particular, no frame grabber board is needed). In our first MPIV prototype presented in this paper, the strobe lighting is generated by a cheap 5 mW laser pointer diode. Experimental results are presented and discussed.

  • Egg production in Korea is becoming automated with a large scale farm. Although many operations in egg production have been and cracks are regraded as a critical problem. A computer vision system was built to generate images of a single , stationary egg. This system includes a CCD camera, a frame grabber board, a personal computer (IBM PC AT 486) and an incandescent back lighting system. Image processing algorithms were developed to inspect egg shell and to sort eggs. Those values of both gray level and area of dark spots in the egg image were used as criteria to detect holes in egg and those values of both area and roundness of dark spots in the egg and those values of both area and roundness of dark spots in the egg image were used to detect cracks in egg. Fro a sample of 300 eggs. this system was able to correctly analyze an egg for the presence of a defect 97.5% of the time. The weights of eggs were found to be linear to both the projected area and the perimeter of eggs v ewed from above. Those two values were used as criteria to sort eggs. Accuracy in grading was found to be 96.7% as compared with results from weight by electronic scale.

  • 본 논문은 장애물을 인식하고 회피하면서 목적지까지 자율적으로 이동할 수 있는 로봇을 구현한 논문이다. 우리는 본 논문에서 영상처리보드의 구현이라는 하드웨어적인 부분과 자율 이동로봇을 위한 영상궤환 제어라는 소프트웨어의 두 가지 결과를 나타내었다. 첫 번째 부분에서, 영상처리를 수행하는 제어보드로부터 명령을 받는 로봇을 나타내었다. 우리는 오랫동안 CCD카메라를 탑재한 자율 이동로봇에 대하여 연구해왔다. 로봇의 구성은 DSP칩을 탑재한 영상보드와 스텝모터 그리고 CCD카메라로 구성된다. 시스템 구성은 이동로봇의 영상처리 보드에서 영상을 획득하고 영상처리 알고리즘을 수행하고 로봇의 이동경로를 계산한다. 이동로봇에 탑재된 CCD카메라에서 획득한 영상 정보는 매 샘플링 시간마다 캡쳐한다. 화면에서 장애물의 유무를 판별한 후 좌 혹은 우로 회전하여 장애물을 회피하고 이동한 거리를 Feedback하는 시스템을 구현하여 초기에 지정한 목표지점가지 로봇이 갈 수 있도록 간략한 경로를 계획하여 절대좌표를 추적해 나가는 알고리즘을 구현한다. 이러한 영상을 획득하고 알고리즘을 처리하는 영상처리 보드의 구성은 DSP (TMS320VC33), ADV611, SAA7111, ADV7176A, CPLD(EPM7256ATC144), SRAM 메모리로 구성되어 있다. 두 번째 부분에서는 장애물을 인식하고 회피하기 위하여 두 가지의 영상궤환 제어 알고리즘을 나타낸다. 첫 번째 알고리즘은 필터링, 경계검출 NOR변환, 경계치 설정 등의 영상 전처리 과정을 거친 영상을 분할하는 기법이다. 여기에서는 Labeling과 Segmentation을 통한 pixel의 밀도 계산이 도입된다. 두 번째 알고리즘은 위와 같이 전처리된 영상에 웨이브렛 변환을 이용하여 수직방향(y축 성분)으로 히스토그램 분포를 20 Pixel 간격으로 스캔한다. 파형 변화에 의하여 장애물이 있는 부분의 히스토그램 분포는 거의 변동이 없이 나타난다. 이러한 특성을 분석하여 장애물이 있는 곳을 찾아내고 이것을 회피하기 위한 알고리즘을 세웠다. 본 논문은 로봇에 장착된 한 개의 CCD 카메라를 이용하여 장애물을 회피하면서 초기에 설정해둔 목적지가지 도달하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안하였으며, 영상처리 보드를 설계 및 제작하였다. 영상처리 보드는 일반적인 보드보다 빠른 속도(30frame/sec)와 해상도를 지원하며 압축 알고리즘을 탑재하고 있어서 영상을 전송하는 데에 있어서도 탁월한 성능을 보인다.

  • Radiographic planning is needed for implant placement in order to determine implant length, jaw bone volume, anatomical stucture and so on. Radiographic examination includes conventional radiography, conventional tomography and CT scan. The most accurate mesurement can be obtained from CT scan. For the cross-sectional view of mandible, CT scan reconstruction is generally needed. But the cross-sectional view of mandible can be reformed by personal computer. This study was performed to examine the clinical usefulness of reformed image using personal computer in comparison with CT scan reconstructed image. CT axial slices of 4 mandibles of 4 volunteers were used. Digital imaging system was composed of Macintosh Ⅱ ci computer, high resolution Sony XC-77 CCD camera, Quick Capture frame grabber board and 'NIH Image' program. Seven reconstructed cross-sectional images within CT machine(CT group) were obtained. And seven reformed cross-sectional images(PC group) after digitization of CT axial slices into the personal computer were obtained. PC group was compared with CT group in the objective and subjective aspects. The results were as follow: 1. Measurement of mandibular height & width in both group showed insignificant difference(P>0.05). 2. Subjective assessment of the mandibular canal in both group showed insignificant difference(P>0.05). 3. Image reformation using personal computer could provide panoramic view, which could not be obtained in CT scan reconstruction.
