We introduce the algorithms of 3-D position estimation using a laser sensor for automatic die remodeling. First, a vision sensor based on the optical triangulation was used to collect the range data of die surface. Second, line vector equations were constructed by the measured range data, and an analytic algorithm was proposed for recognizing the die location with these vector equations. This algorithm could make the transformation matrix without any specific corresponding points. To ascertain this algorithm, folded SUS plate was measured by the laser vision sensor attached to a 3-axis cartesian manipulator and the transformation matrix was calculated.

Disparity 맵은 스테레오 카메라의 이미지 평면에 동일한 3차원 포인터를 나타내는 픽셀간의 차이를 나타내는 이미지이다. 이는 3차원 정보를 얻기 위하여 생성 한며 생성된 Disparity 맵은 Triangulation을 이용하여 3차원 복원이 가능하다. Disparity 맵은 픽셀의 intensity의 차를 이용하여 구하므로 Repeated Pattern 이나 Textureless 부분에서 많은 에러가 생기는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 싱글 카메라와 레이저 레인지 파인더의 캘리브레이션을 통해 알아낸 기하학적인 관계를 이용하여 3차원 정보를 카메라의 이미지 평면으로 역 사영 시켜서 Disparity 맵을 생성하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 방법은 기존의 스트레오 카메라 기반으로 Disparity 맵을 생성하는 경우에 생기는 Repeated Pattern 이나 Textureless 부분의 문제를 해결 할 수 있다는 것을 실험을 통하여 검증 하였다.

Autonomous of welding process in shipyard is ultimately necessary., since welding site is spatially enclosed by floors and girders, and therefore welding operators are exposed to hostile working conditions. To solve this problem, a welding robot that can navigate autonomously within the enclosure needs to be developed. To achieve the welding ra나, the robotic welding systems needs a sensor system for the recognition of the working environments and the weld seam tracking, and a specially designed environment recognition strategy. In this paper, a three-dimensional laser vision system is developed based on the optical triangulation technology in order to provide robots with work environmental map. At the same time a strategy for environment recognition for welding mobile robot is proposed in order to recognize the work environment efficiently. The design of the sensor system, the algorithm for sensing the structured environment, and the recognition strategy and tactics for sensing the work environment are described and dis-cussed in detail.

The measurement in the manufacturing process of curved ship hull plates still depends on wooden templates as a standard instrument. The metrology-enabled automation in the shipbuilding process has been challenged instead of line measurement with wooden templates. The developed measurement system consists of a CCD camera, multiple structured laser sources and 3-DOF motion device. The system carries out measurement of curved profiles for large scale plates by an optical triangulation method. The results of experiment conducted in a manufacturing shop demonstrate the accurate and robust performance.

In this study, a LIDAR laser scanner was used to scan a rock slope around Mt. Gwanak and to produce point cloud from which directional information of rock joint surfaces shall be extracted. It was analyzed using two different algorithms, i.e. Ball Pivoting and Wrap algorithm, and four sampling intervals, i.e. raw, 2, 5, and 10 cm. The results of Fuzzy K-mean clustering were analyzed on the stereonet. As a result, the Ball Pivoting and Wrap algorithms were considered suitable for extraction of rock surface orientation. In the case of 5 cm sampling interval, both triangulation algorithms extracted the most number of the patch and patched area.

An optical method of slit beam scanning topography is presented for the 3-dimensional profile measurement of free-formed surfaces. A slit beam of laser is projected in a scanning mode and its illuminated trajectory on the object is captured by using a CCD camera. The 3-dimensional coordinates of the trajectory is then computed by using the given geometry between the slit beam and the camera, so that the whole surface profile of the object can be obtained in a successive manner. Detailed optical principles are described with special emphasis to lateral are discussed to demonstrate the measuring performances of the slit beam scanning topography proposed in this study.

Lately, airborne digital camera and airborne laser scanner in field of airborne surveying is used to build geography information such as DEM generation and terrain analysis. In this study, 3D position accuracy is compared medium format CCD camera RCD105 with high resolution airborne digital camera DMC. For this, test area was decided for aerial photograph and ground control points was selected in 1/1,000 scale digital map. In Result, Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) was analyzed between RCD105 and DMC after aerial triangulation.

The 3-D shape use to effect of movie, animation, industrial design, medical treatment service, education, engineering etc... But it is not easy to make 3-D shape from the information of 2-D image. There are two methods in restoring 3-D video image through 2-D image; First the method of using a laser; Second, the method of acquiring 3-D image through stereo vision. Instead of doing two methods with many difficulties, I study the method of simple 3-D image in this research paper. We present here a simple and efficient method, called direct calibration, which does not require any equations at all. The direct calibration procedure builds a lookup table(LUT) linking image and 3-D coordinates by a real 3-D triangulation system. The LUT is built by measuring the image coordinates of a grid of known 3-D points, and recording both image and world coordinates for each point; the depth values of all other visible points are obtained by interpolation.

We propose a 3D modeling method for surface inspection of non-linear moving object. The laser lines reflect the surface curvature. We can acquire 3D surface information by analyzing projected laser lines on object. ill this paper, we use multi-line laser to make use of robust of single stripe method and high speed of single frame. Binarization and channel edge extraction method were used for robust laser line extraction. A new labeling method was used for laser line labeling. We acquired sink information between each 3D reconstructed frame by feature point matching, and registered each frame to one whole image. We verified the superiority of proposed method by applying it to container damage inspection system.

A laser-vision-based height measurement system is developed and implemented for the inspection of two-step variable valve lift module assemblies. The proposed laser-vision sensor module is designed based on the principle of laser triangulation. This paper summarizes the work on 3D point cloud data collection and height difference measurements. The configuration of the measurement system and the proposed height measurement algorithm are described and analyzed in detail. Additional measurement experiments on the height differences of valves and lash adjusters of a two-step variable valve lift module were implemented repeatedly to evaluate the accuracy and repeatability of the proposed measurement system. Experimental results show that the proposed laser-vision-based height measurement system achieves high accuracy, repeatability, and stabilization for the inspection of two-step variable valve lift module assemblies.
