This paper presents a method that automatically recognizes products into model type, which it flows with the conveyor belt. The specific interlaced image are occurred by moving image when we use the NTSC based camera. It is impossible to process interlaced images, so a suitable post-processing is required. For the purpose of this processing, after it remove interlaced images using de-interlacing method, it leads rectangle region of object by thresholding. And then, after rectangle region is separated into several blocks through edge detection, we calculate pixel numbers per each block, re-classify using its average, and classify products into model type. Through experiments, we know that the proposed method represent high classification ratio.

8VSB transmission system of American standard and OFDM system of European standard are to be international standards for the transmission of digital terrestrial television. When countries using PAL standard adopt the American 8VSB system which is designed under the circumstance of NTSC system, one of strong interference is the co-channel PAL interference coming from analog PAL signal. In this paper, in order to solve this problem, we classified seven types of PAL system into three groups according to the bandwidth and a new PAL-8VSB system is proposed to reject the co-channel PAL interference by using modified comb filters suitable for each group. By computer simulations of the proposed PAL-8VSB system with the co-channel PAL interference it is confirmed that the proposed comb filter results in the improvement of DIU ratio by about 9 dB.

Thermal imaging system is implemented for the measurement and the analysis of the thermal distribution of the target objects. The main Part of the system is thermal camera in which a focal plane array typed sensor is introduced The sensor detects mid-range infrared spectrum or target objects and then it output generic video signal which should be processed to form a thermal image frame. A digital signal processor(DSP) in the system inputs analog to digital converted data. performs algorithms to improve the thermal images and then outputs the corrected frame data to frame buffers for NTSC encoding and for digital outputs.. To enhance the quality of the thermal images, two point correction method is applied. Figures indicate that the corrected thermal images are much improved.

In this paper, we propose a method for controlling camera focus in the short distance by analyzing NTSC signal of a CCD camera. When the distance between a camera and an object is less than about 1 meter, the existing CCD cameras with auto-focusing function are hard to acquire the proper images because they focus on the protruding minute parts ofthe object without taking into account the whole state of the object. To solve such a problem, we use an annealing algorithm to control the motor of a camera by analyzing the overall signal obtained from the camera. By doing so, we can acquire the adequate images at the near distance. The proposed method will be used for a personal identification system by human iris patterns.

Currently NTSC, PAL, and SECOM are widely used for TV broadcasting systems. In Korea, NTSC has been used to reduce transmission bandwidth and broadband flickers using the Interlaced scanning method. Image data in the Interlaced scanning method require De-interlacing compensation for PC-based multimedia applications. The existing compensation algorithms such as ZOI, FOI, and ELA provieds simple computations and effective image compensation while the PSNR is low and horizontal and vertical edges are hardly detected. In this paper, the ADI(Adaptive De-Interlacing) algorithm that can increase PSNR and detect horizontal and vertical edges is proposed and a hardware system is implemented using three ACTEL 1020B FPGA chips. The system consists of the algorithm part implemented using two FPGAs and the memory control part implemented using rest one. Also the system operation is investigated for real time processing.

This paper implements a remote image based metering(IBM) system which capture meter image, recognizes number automatically, and send the data wirelessly through PCS data network. We use existing gas/water meter and get NTSC camera image by installing small monochrome CMOS camera on the meter closely. For remote data transfer, we use SMS (short message service) that is provided by commercial PCS network. We developed DVR(digital video recorder) for capturing meter image and character recognition algorithm. In addition, hardware and software for SMS and meter selector were developed.

SONY corporation preoccupies $80\%$ of a market of the CCD used in a CCTV system. The CCD of SONY have high duality which can not follow the progress of capability. But there are some problems which differ the clock frequency used in CCD from the frequency used in common video encoder. To get the result by using common video encoder, the system needs a scaler that could adjust image size and PLL that synchronizes CCD's with encoder's clock So, this paper proposes the video encoder that is activated at equal clock used in CCD without scaler and PLL. The encoder converts ITU-R BT.601 4:2:2 or ITU-R BT.656 inputs from various video sources into NTSC or PAL signals in CVBS. Due to variable clock, property of filters used in the encoder is automatically changed by clock and filters adopt multiplier-free structures to reduce hardware complexity. The hardware bit width of programmable digital filters for luminance and chrominance signals, along with other operating blocks, are carefully determined to produce hish-quality digital video signals of ${\pm}1$ LSB error or less. The proposed encoder is experimentally demonstrated by using the Altera Stratix EP1S80B953C6ES device.

The proposed method uses a signal of the smae frequency as the input modulating carrier frequency and of a different phase. This signal is generated in the digital automatic frequency control part to decide the input color demodulated signal. And the phase error from the burst signal is calculated. The calculated phase error is utilized to rmove the phase error contained inthe demodulated color signal. In this paper, digital signal processing of automatic color control is proposed for VCR system campatible with both NTSC and PAL TV systems.
