  • Photo Acoustic Tomography (PAT) is a hybrid imaging modality which combines high contrast of optical imaging and spatial resolution of ultrasound imaging, thus it is suitable to image biological tissue noninvasively. Laser-induced photoacoustic signals were measured from a sample by means of an unfocused ultrasound transducer, then PAT image was reconstructed based on a universal back-projection algorithm. To evaluate the feasibility of our system, phantom test was performed, consequently, the PAT images obtained using our system showed highly analogous shape and volume with those of the phantom. This result demonstrated that our system can provide a powerful tool for imaging the substructure of biological tissue in non-invasive manner.

  • In this paper, an interleaved spiral scan imaging is investigated for an ultra fast MR imaging. The interleaved spiral technique has relative advantage over single shot spiral imaging with improved resolution and less inhomogeneity-related artifact. An improved reconstruction algorithm is devised with DC-offset correction. Some preliminary experimental results are shown at 1.0 Tesla and 3.0 Tesla whole body MRI system.

  • In recent years, the hyperspectral instruments with high spatial and high spectral resolution have become an important component of wide variety of earth science applications. The primary mission of the proposed Compact Airborne Imaging Spectrometer System (CAISS) in this study is to acquire and provide full contiguous spectral information with high quality spectral and spatial resolution for advanced applications in the field of remote sensing. The CAISS will also be used as the vicarious calibration equipment for the cross-calibration of satellite image data. The CAISS consists of six physical units: the camera system, the Jig, the GPS/INS, the gyro-stabilized mount, the operating system, and the power inverter and distributor. Additionally, the calibration instruments such as the integrated sphere and spectral lamps are also prepared for the radiometric and spectral calibration of the CAISS. The CAISS will provide high quality calibrated image data that can support evaluation of satellite application products. This paper summarizes the design, development and major characteristic of the CAISS.

  • Multi-view super-resolution (MVSR) aims to estimate a high-resolution (HR) image from a set of low-resolution (LR) images that are captured from different viewpoints (typically by different cameras). MVSR is usually applied in camera array imaging. Given that MVSR is an ill-posed problem and is typically computationally costly, we super-resolve multi-view LR images of the original scene via image fusion (IF) and blind deblurring (BD). First, we reformulate the MVSR problem into two easier problems: an IF problem and a BD problem. We further solve the IF problem on the premise of calculating the depth map of the desired image ahead, and then solve the BD problem, in which the optimization problems with respect to the desired image and with respect to the unknown blur are efficiently addressed by the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). Our approach bridges the gap between MVSR and BD, taking advantages of existing BD methods to address MVSR. Thus, this approach is appropriate for camera array imaging because the blur kernel is typically unknown in practice. Corresponding experimental results using real and synthetic images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

  • 전기적인 장치를 기반으로 한 테라헤르츠 송신기(Terahertz Transmitter: Tx)를 이용하여 0.34 THz의 전자기파를 발생시키는 소형 CW sub-THz 이미징 시스템을 제시하였다. Tx에 의해 발생된 0.34 THz의 전자기파는 테라 헤르츠 수신기(Terahertz Receiver: Rx)를 이용하여 샘플의 진폭(magnitude)과 위상(phase) 정보를 각각 측정하였다. 이 논문에서는 보다 좋은 이미지 해상도를 얻기 위하여 데이터 수집 시 이미지의 분해능(resolution)에 영향을 미치는 주사 스테이지(scanning stage)의 시간 지연과 스텝 거리를 변수로 두어 다양한 샘플들을 주사하여 그 결과를 측정, 비교하였다. 또한 플라스틱, 종이, 나무 등 다양한 샘플들의 이미징 측정을 통해 테라헤르츠 파의 응용 가능성을 확인하였다.

  • A wide variety of applications of imaging spectrometer have been proved using data from airborne systems. The Compact Airborne Imaging Spectrometer System (CAISS) was jointly designed and developed as the airborne hyperspectral imaging system by Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) and ELOP inc., Israel. The primary mission of the CAISS is to acquire and provide full contiguous spectral information with high spatial resolution for advanced applications in the field of remote sensing. The CAISS consists of six physical units; the camera system, the gyro-stabilized mount, the jig, the GPS/INS, the power inverter and distributor, and the operating system. These subsystems are to be tested and verified in the laboratory before the flight. Especially the camera system of the CAISS has to be calibrated and validated with the calibration equipments such as the integrating sphere and spectral lamps. To improve data quality and its availability, it is the most important to understand the mechanism of imaging spectrometer system and the radiometric and spectral characteristics. The several performance tests of the CAISS were conducted in the camera system level. This paper presents the major characteristics of the CAISS, and summarizes the results of performance tests in the camera system level.

  • 한양대학교에서는 핵물질 탐지를 위해 고에너지 감마선원 영상화에 적합한 이중산란형 컴프턴 카메라의 원형을 개발하였다. 이중산란형 컴프턴 카메라는 높은 영상해상도를 제공하지만, 기존의 단일산란형 컴프턴 카메라보다 상대적으로 영상감도가 낮다는 한계가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 개발된 이중산란형 컴프턴 카메라에 단일산란형 컴프턴 카메라의 기능을 추가함으로써 하나의 시스템에서 두 가지 모드로 작동하는 이중모드 컴프턴 카메라(고민감도(단일산란형)모드와 고해상도(이중산란형)모드)에 대한 개념설계와 이에 대한 최적화 설계를 수행하였다. 최적화된 시스템에서 고민감도 모드는 고해상도 모드에 비해 전 에너지 영역에서 약 100배 정도 높은 고유영상감도를 제공하는 것으로 평가되었으며, 고해상도 모드에서 영상해상도는 기존의 이중산란형 컴프턴 카메라와 거의 같은 결과를 보여 고해상도 영상을 제공하는 것으로 나타났다.
