This paper presents a 3d image processing which uses neural networks to combine a 2D vision camera and a laser slit beam. A laser slit beam from laser source is slitted by a set of cylindrical lenses and the line image of the slit beam on the object is used to estimate the object parameters. The neural networks allow to get the 3D image parameters such as the size, the position and the orientation form the line image without knowing the camera intrinsic parameters.

The best method of measuring wood diameter is a contact-type device: however, obtaining an accurate result can be problematic under certain circumstances. In this study, we used a laser beam and a CCD camera that did not require contact with wood. The wood is illuminated by the laser beam, and the CCD camera captures this illumination. The measurement results were determined by processing of the captured image sequences. This paper explains the use of image processing and laser systems for measurement of wood under circumstances in which physical contact is impossible.

Lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a popular facial rejuvenation surgery that restores the infraorbital region. The procedure is performed by removing excessive fatty tissues, muscles, and other unnecessary structures. The structure of the eyelid differs from person to person and is quite complex; therefore, numerous side effects are expected. Common lower eyelid blepharoplasty complications are asymmetrical faces, retrobulbar hemorrhage, blurred vision, and ectropion. This paper reports a case of a prominent periorbital vein after lower eyelid blepharoplasty. The prominent periorbital vein after surgery is a rare side effect that has not been reported to the best of the author's knowledge. This case was treated with a long-pulse 1,064-nm neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser.

This paper presents a reverse engineering method for compound surfaces using vision system. A CNC machining center is used as a measuring station, which is equipped with slit beam generator and vision probe. Since obtained data using slit beam or laser scanner may have much data loss along the edge of compound surfaces, an algorithm is presented in this study to recover missing geometric data at such region. First, b-spline interpolation is applied to extract edge information of the surface, and as a next step, b-spline approximation is applied to recover the missing geometric data. Finally, b-spline skinning method is applied to regenerate the surface information. Appropriate simulation and experimental works are preformed to very the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

At present. welding of most pipes with large diameter is carried out by the manual process. Automation of the welding process is necessary f3r the sake of consistent weld quality and improvement in productivity. In this study, two vision sensors, based on the optical triangulation, were used to obtain the information for seam tracking and detecting the weld defects. Through utilization of the vision sensors, noises were removed, images and 3D information obtained and positions of the feature points detected. The aforementioned process provided the seam and leg position data, calculated the magnitude of the gap, fillet area and leg length and judged the weld defects by ISO 5817. Noises in the images were removed by using the gradient values of the laser stripe's coordinates and various feature points were detected by using an algorithm based on the iterative polygon approximation method. Since the process time is very important, all the aforementioned processes should be conducted during welding.

Many mobile robot navigation methods utilize laser scanners, ultrasonic sensors, vision camera, and so on for detecting obstacles and path following. However, human utilizes only vision(e.g. eye) information for navigation. In this paper, we study a mobile robot control method based on only the camera vision. The Gaussian Mixture Model and a shadow removal technology are used to divide the foreground and the background from the camera image. The mobile robot uses a combined CAMSHIFT and KLT feature tracker algorithms based on the information of the foreground to follow a person. The algorithm is verified by experiments where a person is tracked and followed by a robot in a hallway.

레이저를 이용한 마킹(marking) 시스템은 미러(mirror)를 움직이는 XY Scanner안 모터의 Thermal drift로 인한 오차와 laser 오류에 의해 마킹의 불량을 초래하게 된다. 따라서, 이 마킹 불량을 검사하기 위해 마킹 시스템에는 비젼(Vision)을 이용한 검사 장비가 탑재된다. 현재 웨이퍼 마킹기나 다른 마킹기의 비젼시스템은 후검사(post vision) 시스템을 도입하고 있다. 하지만, 후검사 시스템의 경우 마킹이 잘못되었을 때, 바로 마킹을 중지하지 못하고 적어도 한 단위 마킹(tray, 웨이퍼, Strip, PCB 등등)을 망치게 되고, 만일 마킹 대상물이 고가인 경우 상당한 금액의 손실을 가져오는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단절을 보완하기 위해 본 논문에서는 CPVS(Concurrent Processing Vision System)라는 시스템을 구현하였다. 이 시스템은 마킹과 마킹 품질검사를 동시에 병행함으로써 마킹이 잘못되었을 때 마킹을 중단하게 되어 더 이상의 손실이 나지 않게 하고 후처리 검사 시스템으로의 이송과정을 생략함으로써 processing time을 줄이고, 생산성을 높인다는 장점을 가지게 된다. 이 시스템의 구현은 Visual C++의 MFC 라이브러리를 사용한 MDI구조로 구현하였다.

Generally, reverse engineering means getting CAD data from unidentified shape using vision or 3D laser scanner system. In this paper, we studied unidentified model by machine vision based reverse engineering system to get information about in-processing model. Recently, vision technology is widely used in current factories, because it could inspect the in-process object easily, quickly, accurately. The following tasks were mainly investigated and implemented. We obtained more precise data by corning camera's distortion, compensating slit-beam error and revising acquired image. Much more, we made similar curves or surface with B-spline approximation for precision. Until now, there have been many case study of shape recognition. But it was uncompatible to apply to the field, because it had taken too many processing time and has frequent recognition failure. This paper propose recognition algorithm that prevent such errors and give applications to the field.
