The purpose of this research is to extract spectral reflectance characteristics of concretes through basic experiment on concrete specimens and site experiment on actual concrete structures using a field portable spectrometer and a VNIR hyperspectral sensor. A spectrometer (GER-3700) and a VNIR hyperspectral camera (AisaEagle VNIR Hyperspectral Camera) were utilized for extracting spectral characteristics of concrete specimens. Concretes normally show similar patterns that have correlation above 80%, while the high-strengthened concretes display very different results from the normal-strength concretes. We also made a certain conclusion in the laboratory experiment on concrete specimens that both the spectrometer and the VNIR camera vary in spectral reflectance depending on concrete strengths.

In Korea, the guideline for the bridge safety inspection requests to assess surface degradation, including crack, efflorescence, spalling, and so on, for the rating of concrete bridges. Currently, the assessment of efflorescence is performed based on the visual inspection of expertized engineers, which may result in subjective inspection result. In this study, a novel method using a hyperspectral camera is proposed for objective and accurate assessment of concrete efflorescence. The hyperspectral camera acquires the light intensity for a number of continuous spectral bands of light for each pixel in an image, which makes the hyperspectral imaging technique provides more detailed information than a color camera that collects intensity for only three bands corresponding to RGB (red, green, and blue) colors. A stepwise assessment algorithm is proposed based on the spectral features to decompose efflorescence area from the inspected concrete area. The algorithm is tested in the laboratory test using two concrete specimens, one of which is dark colored with efflorescence on a surface while the other is bright concrete without efflorescence. The test shows high accuracy and applicability of the proposed efflorescence assessment using a hyperspectral camera.

The Compact Airborne Imaging Spectrometer System (CAISS) was jointly designed and developed as the hyperspectral imaging system by Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) and ELOP inc., Israel. The primary mission of the CAISS is to acquire and provide full contiguous spectral information with high quality spectral and high spatial resolution for advanced applications in the field of remote sensing. The CAISS consists of six physical units; the camera system, the gyro-stabilized mount, the jig, the GPS/INS, the power inverter and distributor, and the operating system. These subsystems shall be tested and verified in the laboratory before the flight. Especially the camera system of the CAISS shall be calibrated and validated with the calibration equipments such as the integrated sphere and spectral lamps. To improve data quality and availability, it is the most important to understand the mechanism of hyperspectral imaging system and the radiometric and spectral characteristics. This paper presents the major characteristics of camera system on the CAISS and summarizes the results of radiometric and spectral experiment during preliminary system verification.

초분광영상의 활용 가능성은 증대하고 있으나, 연구에 필요한 초분광센서의 공급은 비교적 제한되어 있다. 초분광영상으로부터 정보 획득을 위한 처리와 분석은 대부분 영상에서 획득되는 분광반사율에 기반을 두고 있다. 본 연구의 목표는 사전 복사보정 자료가 없는 지상 초분광카메라 영상의 복사보정 과정을 개발하여 영상의 화소값을 분광반사율로 변환하고자 한다. 다양한 분광반사특성을 가진 22개 클래스로 구성된 모의지표물을 대상으로 분광측정기를 이용한 대리 복사보정 절차를 수행하였다 분광측정기로 측정된 복사량과 영상의 화소값의 관계를 이용하여 120개 밴드 초분광영상의 화소값을 센서감지 복사량(radiance)로 변환하는 보정계수를 도출하였다. 영상 촬영 및 분광측정이 대기의 영향이 거의 없는 지상 근접 촬영으로 이루어졌기 때문에, 화소값을 반사율(reflectance)로 직접 변환하는 보정계수도 산출하였다. 그러나 원거리 촬영이나 공중 촬영으로 획득된 영상의 경우 산출된 복사보정 계수는 센서감지 복사량 변환에만 유효하며, 반사율을 얻기 위해서는 추가적인 대기보정 절차가 별도로 수행되어야 한다.

본 연구에서는 소나무재선충병이 확산되어 있는 거제도를 대상으로 소나무재선충병 감염목 특성분석을 위하여 지상용 초분광 카메라를 활용하여 2012년과 2013년에 걸쳐 대상 임목을 촬영하였다. 영상 촬영은 소나무재선충병이 확산되는 시기인 6~9월 기간에 개체목 단위와 임분 단위로 구분하여, 개체목은 인위적으로 소나무재선충병을 주입한 공시목을 대상으로 실시하고, 임분은 소나무재선충병이 자연적으로 발생한 임분을 대상으로 실시하였다. 수백개의 파장대역 정보를 담고 있는 지상용 초분광 영상을 이용하여 소나무재선충병 감염단계에서부터 고사단계에 이르기까지 파장대역 변화와 특성분석을 진행하였다. 그 결과, 전체 파장대역 중 적색영역(550~700 nm)의 변화가 두드러지게 나타났으며 특히, 688 nm 전후의 파장대역에서 고사목과 정상목간의 가장 많은 변화폭이 관측되었다. 향후 초분광 항공사진을 활용한 소나무재선충병 감염목 탐지 활용가능성 판단을 위하여 개체목 단위 촬영영상보다 대면적의 임분단위 촬영영상을 활용한 분석이 진행되었다. 가장 큰 변화를 나타낸 688 nm 구간의 식생지수 활용을 위하여 Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI), Red Edge Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(reNDVI), Photochemical Reflectance Index(PRI), Anthocyanin Reflectance Index 2(ARI2) 식생지수에 대한 비교 분석을 실시하였다. 감염목 탐지에 효율성이 높다고 판단되는 지수는 NDVI와 reNDVI으로 나타났으며 688 nm를 NDVI와 reNDVI식 적색영역에 적용한 결과 688 nm를 포함하여 적용한 지수값에서 감염진행에 따른 가장 큰 변화폭을 나타내어 감염목 탐지에 가장 효율적인 것으로 판단되었다.

Kudoa septempunctata, a myxozoan parasite, usually presents without any signs and primarily infects adult fish. The invasive diagnostic methods, such as tissue biopsy, can identify pathogens, but cause economic losses because they require killing the fish. In this study, we conducted a monitoring of four fish farms located on Jeju Island, to investigate the potential for non-invasive diagnosis of K. septempunctata using hyperspectral cameras. It provides spectral information from R000_B000_G000 to R255_B255_G255 for a total of 3,282 olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Each object is imaged with 2,000 data points, allowing comprehensive spectral analysis by comparing images obtained from negative control objects to positive control objects. Noticeable differences were observed in the brightness or pallor of the positive control images. This suggests the potential utility of hyperspectral imaging as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for detecting K. septempunctata infections in fish populations.

Assessing the condition of paint on civil structures is an important but challenging and costly task, in particular when it comes to large and complex structures. Current practices of visual inspection are labour-intensive and time-consuming to perform. In addition, this task usually relies on the experience and subjective judgment of individual inspectors. In this study, hyperspectral imaging and classification techniques are proposed as a method to objectively assess the state of the paint on a civil or other structure. The ultimate objective of the work is to develop a technology that can provide precise and automatic grading of paint condition and assessment of degradation due to age or environmental factors. Towards this goal, we acquired hyperspectral images of steel surfaces located at long (mid-range) and short distances on the Sydney Harbour Bridge with an Acousto-Optics Tunable filter (AOTF) hyperspectral camera (consisting of 21 bands in the visible spectrum). We trained a multi-class Support Vector Machines (SVM) classifier to automatically assess the grading of the paint from hyperspectral signatures. Our results demonstrate that the classifier generates highly accurate assessment of the paint condition in comparison to the judgement of human experts.

Edible insects are gaining popularity as a potential future food source because of their high protein content and efficient use of space. Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are noteworthy because they can be used as feed for various animals including reptiles, dogs, fish, chickens, and pigs. However, if the edible insect industry is to advance, we should use automation to reduce labor and increase production. Consequently, there is a growing demand for sensing technologies that can automate the evaluation of insect quality. This study used short-wave infrared (SWIR) hyperspectral imaging to predict the proximate composition of dried BSFL, including moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, and crude ash content. The larvae were dried at various temperatures and times, and images were captured using an SWIR camera. A partial least-squares regression (PLSR) model was developed to predict the proximate content. The SWIR-based hyperspectral camera accurately predicted the proximate composition of BSFL from the best preprocessing model; moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, and crude ash content were predicted with high accuracy, with R² values of 0.89 or more, and root mean square error of prediction values were within 2%. Among preprocessing methods, mean normalization and max normalization methods were effective in proximate prediction models. Therefore, SWIR-based hyperspectral cameras can be used to create automated quality management systems for BSFL.

Defects exist underneath the fruit skin are not easily discernable by using conventional color imaging technique in the visible wavelength ranges. Development of sensitive detection methods for the defects is necessary to ensure accurate quality sorting of fruits. Hyperspectral imaging techniques, which combine the features of image and spectroscopy to acquire spatial and spectral information simultaneously, have demonstrated good potentials for identifying and detecting anomalies on biological substances. In this study, a high spatial resolution hyperspectral reflectance technique was presented as a tool for detecting bruises on apple. The two-band ratio (494 nm / 952 nm) and simple threshold methods were applied to investigate the feasibility of discriminating the bruises from sound tissue of apple. The pixel wise accuracy of the discrimination was 74%. The resultant images processed with selected wavebands and morphologic algorithm distinctively showed the early stages of bruises on apple which were not discernable by naked eyes as well as a conventional color camera. Results demonstrated good potential of the hyperspectral reflectance imaging for detection of bruises on apple.
