This paper describes a method for obstacle avoidance and map building for mobile robots using one CCD camera. The captured image from one camera has the feature that some parts where focused look fine but the other parts look blear (this is the out-focusing effect). Using this feature a mobile robot can find obstacles in his way from the captured image. After Processing the image, a robot can not only determine whether an obstacle is in front of him or not, but also calculate the distance from obstacles based on image data and the focal distance of its camera lens. Finally, robots can avoid the obstacle and build the map using this calculated data.

One of the important research issues in mobile robot is how to detect the 3D environment fast and accurately, and recognize it. Sensing methods of utilizing laser structured light and/or stereo vision are representatively used among a number of methodologies developed to date. However, the methods are still in need of achieving high accuracy and reliability to be used for real world environments. In this paper to implement a new robotic environmental sensing algorithm is presented by combining the information between intensity image and that of laser structured light image. To see how effectively the algorithm applied to real environments, we developed a sensor system that can be mounted on a mobile robot and tested performance for a series of environments.

We developed a novel PVA pixel design for mobile application with excellent off-axis image quality and optical performance by introducing Active Level Shift technology and optimizing pixel structure. Our new pixel design enables better off-axis image quality without sacrificing other optical properties compared with a conventional mPVA structure.

In this paper, the maze navigation system using image recognition for autonomous mobile robot is proposed. The proposed maze navigation system searches the target by image recognition method based on ADALINE neural network. The infrared sensor system must travel all blocks to find target because it can recognize only one block information each time. But the proposed maze navigation system can reduce the number of traveling blocks because of the ability of sensing several blocks at once. Especially, due to the simplicity of the algorithm, the proposed method could be easily implemented to the system which has low capacity processor.

Spatially referenced mobile mapping (MM) images contain rich information of man-made objects , e.g. road centerlines, buildings, light poles, traffic signs ,billboards and line trees etc. Therefore, the applications in transportation, urban 3D reconstruction, utility management are implemented increasingly. It’s a fundamental issue lies in MM image process that how to orient this image in the object space including interior orientation of camera and the exterior orientation of image. In this paper, the algorithm of automatic acquirement of DC (Digital Camera) parameters based on MM images is illustrated. And then, the mapping between image space and object space for MM images is described.

Skin-color information is not sufficient for palmprint segmentation in complex scenes, including mobile environments. Traditional active shape model (ASM) combines gray information and shape information, but its performance is not good in complex scenes. An improved ASM method is developed for palmprint segmentation, in which Perux method normalizes the shape of the palm. Then the shape model of the palm is calculated with principal component analysis. Finally, the color likelihood degree is used to replace the gray information for target fitting. The improved ASM method reduces the complexity, while improves the accuracy and robustness.

In traditional Chinese medical (TCM) science, tongue images can be observed for medical diagnosis; however, the tongue diagnosis of TCM is influenced by the subjective factors of doctors, and the diagnosis results vary from person to person. Quantitative TCM tongue diagnosis can improve the accuracy of diagnosis and increase the application value. In this paper, digital image processing and pattern recognition technologies are employed on mobile device to classify tongue images collected in different health states. First, through grayscale integral projection processing, the trough is found to localize the tongue body. Then the tongue body image is transferred from RGB color space to HSV color space, and the average H and S values are considered as the color features. Finally, the diagnosis results are obtained according to the relationship between the color characteristics and physical symptoms.

교육 매개체의 디지털화를 위해 정보 통신망과 기술을 본격적으로 교육에 도입함으로써 교육의 패러다임이 e-learning(electronics learning)으로 이동하고 있다. 그러나 e-learning 콘텐츠는 컴퓨터가 있는 장소에서만 제공받을 수 있기 때문에, 언제 어디서나 사용자가 원할 때 교육받기 힘든 단점이 있으며, 기존 오프라인 콘텐츠를 e-learning 콘텐츠로 재구성하기 위해 많은 비용과 시간이 소요된다. 본 논문에서는 정적인 2차원 시각 정보만을 제공하는 기존 오프라인 콘텐츠의 그림 영상에 모바일 기기를 이용하여 동적인 인터랙션과 다양한 멀티미디어 정보를 융합할 수 있는 교육용 모바일 콘텐츠 (education mobile contents: EMC) 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 영어 교육 콘텐츠는 기존 오프라인 콘텐츠의 그림 영상을 저해상도 카메라가 장착된 모바일 기기로 인식하기 위해 모양 기반의 영상 검색 방법을 이용하며, 수행속도와 크기와 기울기 변화에 강건한 시작점 일치를 통한 차분 체인코드 (differential chain code)를 사용한 DTW(dynamic time warping)를 이용한다. EMC는 모바일 기기를 이용하여 장소에 상관없이 오프라인 콘텐츠에 적합한 온라인 콘텐츠를 빠르고 정확하게 제공할 수 있다.

In this paper, we address an active ranging system based on laser structured light image for mobile robot application. Since the burdensome correspondence problem is avoidable, the structured light image processing has efficient computation in comparison with the conventional stereo image processing. By using a cylindrical lens in the laser generation, it is possible to convert a point laser into a stripe laser without motorized scan in the proposed system. In order to achieve robustness against environmental illumination noise, we propose an efficient integro-differential image processing algorithm. The proposed system has embedded image processing module and transmits distance data to reduce the computational burden in main control system.

This paper presents the design and implementation of an embedded image stabilization control system for a mobile phone with a built-in camera. Image stabilization is a family of techniques for reducing image blur resulting from minute camera shake due to hand-held shooting, thereby allowing the use of shutter speeds slower than values normally required to obtain sharp images. A mechanical image stabilizer mechanism developed for a camera mobile phone is introduced and a digital control system as a part of the image stabilization system is designed and implemented on an 8-bit microcontroller with integer arithmetic in C. This paper focuses primarily on issues that need to be taken into consideration for fixed-point implementation of the digital controller. Several experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the implemented image stabilization control system.
