Side scanning sonar (SSS) provides valuable information for robot navigation. However using the side scanning sonar images in the navigation was not fully studied. In this paper, we use range data, and side scanning sonar images from UnderWater Simulator (UWSim) and propose measurement models in a feature based simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) framework. The range data is obtained by echosounder and sidescanning sonar images from side scan sonar module for UWSim. For the feature, we used the A-KAZE feature for the SSS image matching and adjusting the relative robot pose by SSS bundle adjustment (BA) with Ceres solver. We use BA for the loop closure constraint of pose-graph SLAM. We used the Incremental Smoothing and Mapping (iSAM) to optimize the graph. The optimized trajectory was compared against the dead reckoning (DR).

Quilting, a technique to join two or more layers of fabrics, has long been used in the textile and fashion sectors. To evaluate dimensional effect of quilting that changes according to the characteristics of fabrics, 3D scanning method is employed in this study. Goal of this study is to interpret how fabric's composition, stiffness, thickness, and weight affect the appearance when quilted fabrics are used in a garment. Surface reconstruction method based on 3D scanning is used as a research method to evaluate the changing appearance depending on the material properties quantitatively with the quilting method. Besides, exemplary virtual clothing is realized through a virtual quilting method in 3D digital clothing system based on the properties of fabrics.

본 논문에서 우리는 PAL-공간변조기를 사용한 Two-pupil 광학 스캐닝 기술에 의하여 실시간 JTC 상관 광 시스템을 수행할 수 있음을 보여주고자 한다. 광학적 addressing(Optical addressing)은 빛에 민감한 $\alpha$-Si 층, 즉 액체 크리스털을 따라 전기장을 조절하는 얍은 층에 의하여 성취되었다. 제안된 기술은 광학적 Twin-pupil 헤테로다인 스캐닝(heterodyne scanning)에 근거하고 있으며, 이 기법은 Fourier 평면에 위치한 광 공간변조기와는 독립적으로 작용한다. 우리는 본 기술의 이론적 근거를 개발하고 목표이미지와 참조이미지 사이의 상관관계를 실험적으로 평가함으로서 본 기술의 성능을 평가하였다.

In this paper an efficient image encryption scheme based on cyclic rotations and multiple blockwise diffusions with two chaotic maps is proposed. A Sin map is used to generate round keys for the encryption/decryption process. A Pomeau-Manneville map is used to generate chaotic values for permutation, pixel value rotation and diffusion operations. The encryption scheme is composed of three stages: permutation, pixel value rotation and diffusion. The permutation stage performs four operations on the image: row shuffling, column shuffling, cyclic rotation of all the rows and cyclic rotation of all the columns. This stage reduces the correlation significantly among neighboring pixels. The second stage performs circular rotation of pixel values twice by scanning the image horizontally and vertically. The amount of rotation is based on $M{\times}N$ chaotic values. The last stage performs the diffusion four times by scanning the image in four different ways: block of $8{\times}8$ pixels, block of $16{\times}16$ pixels, principal diagonally, and secondary diagonally. Each of the above four diffusions performs the diffusion in two directions (forwards and backwards) with two previously diffused pixels and two chaotic values. This stage makes the scheme resistant to differential attacks. The security and performance of the proposed method is analyzed systematically by using the key space, entropy, statistical, differential and performance analysis. The experimental results confirm that the proposed method is computationally efficient with high security.

본 논문은 CCD 센서의 스캔 이미지 향상을 위해 쉐이딩 보정 알고리듬을 이용한 FPGA 설계 및 구현에 관한 연구이다. 쉐이딩 보정 기법은 룩업테이블(LUT)을 적용한다. 향상된 이미지 스캔을 위하여 CCD 센서의 모든 픽셀에 대한 히스토그램 최대값 및 최소값을 구하고, 균일한 히스토그램 값을 갖도록 오프셋 데이터의 쉐이딩 보정 LUT를 생성한다. 스캔 과정에서 센서의 출력은 보정된 LUT값으로 변환되고 LUT 변환 처리는 FPGA로 구현하여 실시간처리가 가능하도록 한다. 구현 시스템을 사용하여 실험한 결과 2.4ms 이하의 스캔 타이밍을 충족 할 수 있다. 제안시스템은 낮은 성능의 프로세서 기반에서 저비용 및 실시간 향상된 이미지 스캔이 가능하다.

최근 스마트 시티에 의한 공간정보 제작의 일환으로 역설계를 위한 구조물의 3차원 재현이 주목받고 있다. 특히, 구조물 3차원 재현에 지상 LiDAR가 주로 사용되며 UAS에 의한 3차원 재현 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 다만, 두 기술 모두 촬영각에 의한 사각지대가 발생한다. 본 연구는 수직구조물을 대상으로 UAS를 활용한 SfM기반 영상해석 기술을 통해 구현된 3D 모델과 지상 LiDAR 기반의 레이저 스캐닝에 의한 3D 모델간의 재현성 및 효용성을 검토하고 사각지대 보완을 위해 2가지 3D 모델을 조합 검토한다. 이를 위해 인공암벽을 대상으로 UAS 기반 영상을 취득하고 GNSS 장비와 토탈 스테이션을 통해 수직면 기준점(VCP) 및 점검점을 설정, SfM 기반 영상해석 기술을 활용하여 구조물의 3D 모델을 재현한다. 또한, 지상 LiDAR 스캐닝을 통해 구조물의 3D 측점 군을 취득하고 점검점을 기준으로 재현의 정확도와 3D 모델의 완성도를 UAS 기반 영상해석결과와 비교·검토하였다. 특히, UAS 및 지상 LiDAR로부터 구축한 측점 군의 조합을 통해 정확도와 실감 재현도를 확인하였다. 연구결과, 정확도 및 3D 모델 완성도에서 UAS 기반 영상해석이 우수하였고, 두 방법의 측점 군 조합으로 정확도가 향상됨을 확인하였다. UAS 및 지상 LiDAR 레이저 스캐닝 조합방법으로 수직구조물 대상 정밀 3차원 모델의 사각지대 보완·재현이 가능하므로 공간정보 구축, 안전진단 및 유지보수 관리에 효율적인 사용이 기대된다.

A digital ultrasonic image construction system was developed for the nondestructive detection of cracks in water distribution pipes. The system consists of PC based ultrasonic testing system and a scanning device. The PC based ultrasonic system has an ultrasonic pulse/receive board for the generation and reception of ultrasonic signals, an analogue to digital conversion board for the digitization of the received ultrasonic signals, and transducers for the ultrasonic sensors. Using this system, the digitized ultrasonic signals were properly constructed in accordance with the position information obtained by scanning device that moves an ultrasonic transducer along the outer surface of pipes. In the construction of the ultrasonic signals, signal processing concepts, such as spatial average and array concept, were considered to enhance the resolution of ultrasonic images of pipe wall. Using the developed system, crack detection experiments were performed in both laboratory and field, which shows promise for crack detection in the water distribution system.

Grain size of material is important factor in evaluating mechanical properties. Methods for grain size determination are described in ASTM grain size standards. However, conventional method require pretreatment of the surface to clarify grain boundaries. In this study, the grain size from the surface image obtained from scanning electron microscope was measured using the watershed algorithm, which is a region-based method among image segmentation techniques. The shapes of the crystals are similar to each other, but the size and growth height are different. In addition, crystal grains are adjacent to each other, so it is very similar to the shape image of the topography. Therefore, grain boundaries can be efficiently detected using the Watershed algorithm.

This paper shows the hiding process of unlimited secret text size in an image using three methods: the first method is the traditional method in steganography that based on the concealing the binary value of the text using the least significant bits method, the second method is a new method to hide the data in an image based on Exclusive OR process and the third one is a new method for hiding the binary data of the text into an image (that may be grayscale or RGB images) using Exclusive and Huffman Coding. The new methods shows the hiding process of unlimited text size (data) in an image. Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) is applied in the research to simulate the results.

The scanning electron microscope (SEM) offers two-dimensional (2D) micrographs of three-dimensional (3D) objects due to its inherent operating mechanisms. To overcome this limitation, other devices have been used for quantitative morphological analysis. Many efforts have been made on the applications of software-based approaches to 3D reconstruction and measurements by SEM. Based on the acquisition of two stereo images, a multi-view technique consists of two parts: (i) geometric calibration and (ii) image matching. Quantitative morphological parameters such as height and depth could be nondestructively measured by SEM combined with special software programs. It is also possible to obtain conventional surface parameters such as roughness and volume of biomedical specimens through 3D SEM surface reconstruction. There is growing evidence that conventional 2D SEM without special electron detectors can be transformed to 3D SEM for quantitative measurements in biomedical research.
