In the machine vision inspection equipment, diameter measurement is important process in inspection of cylindrical object. However, machine vision inspection equipment requires complex algorithm processing such as camera distortion correction and perspective distortion correction, and the increase in processing time and cost required for precise diameter measurement. In this paper, we proposed the algorithm for diameter measurement of cylindrical object using the laser displacement sensor. In order to fit circle for given four input outer points, grid search algorithms using root-mean-square error and mean-absolute error are applied and compared. To solve the limitations of the grid search algorithm, we finally apply the singular-value-decomposition based circle fitting algorithm. In order to compare the performance of the algorithms, we generated the pseudo data of the outer points of the cylindrical object and applied each algorithm. As a result of the experiment, the grid search using root-mean-square error confirmed stable measurement results, but it was confirmed that real-time processing was difficult as the execution time was 10.8059 second. The execution time of mean-absolute error algorithm was greatly improved as 0.3639 second, but there was no weight according to the distance, so the result of algorithm is abnormal. On the other hand, the singular-value-decomposition method was not affected by the grid and could not only obtain precise detection results, but also confirmed a very good execution time of 0.6 millisecond.

Texture mapping is the process of covering 3D models with texture images in order to increase the visual realism of the models. For proper mapping the coordinates of texture images need to coincide with those of the 3D models. When projective images from the camera are used as texture images, the texture image coordinates are defined by a camera calibration method. The texture image coordinates are determined by the relation between the coordinate systems of the camera image and the 3D object. With the projective camera images, the distortion effect caused by the camera lenses should be compensated in order to get accurate texture coordinates. The distortion effect problem has been dealt with iterative methods, where the camera calibration coefficients are computed first without considering the distortion effect and then modified properly. The methods not only cause to change the position of the camera perspective line in the image plane, but also require more control points. In this paper, a new iterative method is suggested for reducing the error by fixing the principal points in the image plane. The method considers the image distortion effect independently and fixes the values of correction coefficients, with which the distortion coefficients can be computed with fewer control points. It is shown that the camera distortion effects are compensated with fewer numbers of control points than the previous methods and the projective texture mapping results in more realistic image.

In this paper, we describe a method for precisely measuring the abrasion of the railway using an image processing technique. To calculate the wear of the rails, we provided a method for accurately matching the standard rail profile data and the profile data acquired by the rail inspection vehicle. After the lens distortion correction and the perspective transformation of the measured profile data, we used ICP Algorithm for accurate profile data matching with the reference profile extracted from the standard rail drawing. We constructed the prototype of the Rail Profile Measurement System for High-speed Railway and the experimental result on the three type of the standard rail used in Korea showed the excellent profile matching accuracy within 0.1mm.

본 연구는 구조물의 변위계측에 있어 비접촉방법인 디지털 카메라를 이용한 근접수치사진측량을 이용한 실험결과를 제시한 것이다. 근접수치사진측량을 구조물 변위계측에 적용하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 카메라 자체검정을 통하여 기하학적 해석 정확도를 저해하는 렌즈의 왜곡에 대한 보정을 실시한 후 구조물의 변위계측을 위하여 자체제작한 라멘구조물에 각각의 하중을 재하하여 변위계측을 실시하였다. 또한 변위계측시 현장 적용성을 높이기 위하여 구조해석 프로그램인 MIDAS를 이용하여 모델링한 후 비교분석하였다. 그 결과 현재 구조물 안전진단에 활용되고 있는 LVDT, 케이블식변위계등 접촉식변위계가 가지고 있는 단점인 현장접근의 어려움, 설치비 과다등의 단점을 극복할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였으며, 특히 실측 시간의 단축으로 인한 경제성을 확보할 수 있었다. 따라서 디지털 카메라를 이용한 근접수치사진측량은 구조물의 변위계측 뿐만 아니라 구조물의 3차원 모델링, 구조물의 실측형상재현 등 시각적 분석이 필요한 분야에 다양하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
