The purpose of this research is to develop an integrated quality inspection system using machine vision technology in the automotive engine assembly process. The system makes it possible for the inspected data to be entered directly from the machine vision system into the developed system without the need for intermediate operations. Such direct entry enables prompt corrective actions against process problems. An IVP-150 machine vision board is installed an the PC for image processing, and a template matching technology is implemented to precisely verify quality factors. The developed system is successfully installed in a manufacturing process, and it showed robustness to the problems of noise, distortion, and orientation.

Smart city is currently the main direction of development. The automatic management of instrumentation is one task of the smart city. Because there are a lot of old instrumentation in the city that cannot be replaced promptly, how to makes low-cost transformation with Internet of Thing (IoT) becomes a problem. This article gives a low-cost method that can identify code wheel instrument information. This method can effectively identify the information of image as the digital information. Because this method does not require a lot of memory or complicated calculation, it can be deployed on a cheap microcontroller unit (MCU) with low read-only memory (ROM). At the end of this article, test result is given. Using this method to modify the old instrumentation can achieve the automatic management of instrumentation and can help build a smart city.

A set of modal parameters of a stay-cable have been extracted fi:on a moving picture captured by a digital camera supported by shaking hands. It is hard to identify the center of targets attached on the cable surface from the blurred cable motion image, because of the high speed motion of cable, low sampling frequency of camera, and the shaking effect of camera. This study proposes a multi-template matching algorithm to resolve such difficulties. In addition, a sensitivity-based system identification algorithm is introduced to extract the natural frequencies and damping ratios from the ambient cable vibration data. Three sets of vibration tests are conducted to examine the validity of the proposed algorithms. The results show that the proposed technique is pretty feasible for extracting modal parameters from the severely shaking motion pictures.

생산 기술이 발전함에 따라 제품의 생산량이 증가하고 컴퓨터 비전을 통한 제품의 양/불 판단 기술의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 제품의 양/불 판단은 그 정확도가 중요하며, 동시에 빠른 검사를 위한 신속성이 요구된다. 기존 연구들에서 다양한 금속성 제품에 대한 양/불 판단과 각인된 글자에 대한 양/불 판단을 수행하는 연구가 지속되어 왔으나 자동차 에어백 부품 중 하나인 Upper Housing의 양/불을 판단하는 알고리즘은 부재하다. 본 논문에서는 Upper Housing에 대해 각인 문자의 양/불을 판정하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저 영상에서 기준점이 되는 원을 찾는 것부터 시작하여, 기준점을 기반으로 특정 각도로 회전시켜 미리 수집한 글자 이미지와의 템플릿 매칭을 통해 글자가 제대로 각인 되었는지를 판단한다. 실험에서는 에어백 부품에 대한 검사 장치에서 촬영한 동영상에 대하여 제안한 알고리즘을 적용하였고, 그 결과 높은 정확도로 글자를 검출할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

일상생활 중 장시간 계측하는 심전도 모니터링의 경우 250Hz~500Hz 또는 그 이상의 높은 샘플링 속도가 요구된다. 그러나 일상생활 중 장시간 계측을 위해 소형화된 제한적인 기기로는 기하급수적으로 늘어나는 데이터를 감당하기가 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한정된 자원을 효율적으로 이용하기 위한 템플릿 매칭 기반의 심전도 압축 알고리즘을 제안하였으며 모바일 어플리케이션에 구현하고자 하였다. 그 결과 CR평균은 5.56 PDR평균은 5.33으로 나타났으며, 모바일 어플리케이션에 적용하여 그 유용성을 확인하였다.

In a face detection system based on template matching, histogram equalization or log transform is applied to an input image for the intensity normalization and the image improvement. It is known that they are noneffective in improving an image with intensity distortion by illumination variation. In this paper, we propose an efficient image improvement method called as a bilateral symmetry average for images with intensity distortion by illumination variation. Experimental results show that our method delivers the detection performance better than previous methods and also remarkably reduces the number of face candidates.

본 논문에서는 컬러 영상과 깊이 영상으로부터 영상 전체의 정보를 활용하는 형판 정합 방법으로 특징을 추출하여, 사물의 속성을 인식하는 시스템을 제안한다. 본 시스템은 입력 영상으로부터 더 많은 정보를 얻기 위해 컬러 영상과 깊이 영상을 함께 사용하였다. 그리고 영상의 부분적인 정보가 아닌 전체 정보를 활용하는 형판 정합 방법을 사용하여 속성 인식률을 향상 시켰다. 본 시스템의 성능을 확인하기 위해 워싱턴 대학에서 제공하는 RGB-D 데이터 집합을 이용하여 다른 특징들 및 분류기와 비교실험을 진행하였고, 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템의 높은 성능을 확인할 수 있었다.

A research about facial image recognition is studied in the most of images in a full race. A representative part, effecting a facial image recognition, is eyes and a mouth. So, facial image recognition researchers have studied under the central eyes, eyebrows, and mouths on the facial images. But most people in front of a camera in everyday life are difficult to recognize a fast change of pupils. And people wear glasses. So, in this paper, we try using Principal Component Analysis(PCA) for facial image recognition in blindfold case.

This paper presents a wafer pre-alignment system which is improved using the image of the entire wafer area. In the previous method, image acquisition for wafer takes about 80% of total pre-alignment time. The proposed system uses only one image of entire wafer area via a high-resolution CMOS camera, and so image acquisition accounts for nearly 1% of total process time. The larger FOV(field of view) to use the image of the entire wafer area worsen camera lens distortion. A camera calibration using high order polynomials is used for accurate lens distortion correction. And template matching is used to find a correct notch's position. The performance of the proposed system was demonstrated by experiments of wafer center alignment and notch alignment.
