  • This research paper examines the usage of graphic imaging in Holographic Projections to further advance the medical field. It highlights the importance and necessity of this technology as well as avant-garde techniques applied in the process of displaying images in digital holography. This paper also discusses the different types of applications for holograms in society today. Different tools were utilized to transfer a set of a cancer patient's brain tumor data into data used to produce a 3D holographic image. This image was produced through the transfer of data from one program to another. Through the use of semi-automatic segmentation through the seed region method, we were able to create a 3D visualization from Computed Tomography (CT) data.

  • In many industries, the accurate and quick checking of goods in storage is of great importance. Most today's inventory checking is based on bar code scanning, but the relative position between a bar code and an optical scanner should be maintained in close distance and proper angle for the successful scanning. This requirement makes it difficult to fully automate the inventory information/control systems. The use of RFID technology can be a solution for overcoming this problem. The mobile robot presented in this paper is equipped with an RFID tag scanning system, that automates the otherwise manual or semi-automatic inventory checking process. We designed the robot system in a quite practical approach, and the developed system is close to the commercialization stage. In our experiments, the robot could collect information of goods stacked on shelves autonomously without any failure and maintain corresponding database while it navigated predefined paths between the shelves using vision.

  • This paper proposes a semi-automatic image-based approach for 3-dimensional (3D) modeling of buildings along streets. Image-based urban 3D modeling techniques are typically based on the use of aerial and ground-level images. The aerial image of the relevant area is extracted from publically available sources in Google Maps by stitching together different patches of the map. Panoramic images are common for ground-level recording because they have advantages for 3D modeling. A panoramic video recorder is used in the proposed approach for recording sequences of ground-level spherical panoramic images. The proposed approach has two advantages. First, detected camera trajectories are more accurate and stable (compared to methods using multi-view planar images only) due to the use of spherical panoramic images. Second, we extract the texture of a facade of a building from a single panoramic image. Thus, there is no need to deal with color blending problems that typically occur when using overlapping textures.

  • In collaborative environment, it is necessary that the participants in collaboration should share the same understanding about the semantics of terms. For example, they should know that 'COMPONENT' and 'ITEM' are different word-expressions for the same meaning. In order to handle such problems in information sharing, an information system needs to automatically recognize that the terms have the same semantics. So we develop an algorithm mapping two terms based on their ontological definitions and their similarities. The proposed algorithm consists of four steps: the character matching, the inferencing, the definition comparing and the similarity checking. In the similarity checking step, we consider relation similarity and hierarchical similarity. The algorithm is very primitive, but it shows the possibility of semi-automatic mapping using ontology. In addition, we design a mapping procedure for a mapping system, called SOM (semantic ontology mapper).

  • We propose the system that automatically adjusts the white balance on display products to a standard value according to several nations. We replace manual or semi-auto method with fully automatic method using windows application program. And we use RS-232C serial interface to communicate PC with display products which we want to adjust white balance. The PC generates patterns for measuring color information and Color Analyzer measures color and brightness. This value is transmitted through RS-232C serial interface to PC. The PC's algorithm analyzes this information and then decides which RGB Gain value is best for optimal white balance. This RGB Gain value is transmitted through RS-232C serial interface to display products. The modified color value is measured again and feed back to PC. This sequence is repeated until optimum white balance is obtained.

  • In the present study a semi-automatic mesh generation program has been developed by using DXF file containing contour line data. The program consists of DXF file reader and mapping algorithm. Pre-generated 2-D planar mesh points are to be mapped one by one onto triangular surface whose three vertices are three nearest contour points surrounding the mapping point. The present program has been successfully tested for mesh generations for the road tunnel ventilation analysis and analysis of lava movement in mountain area.

  • 본 논문에서는 Head-up Digitizing / Vectorizing 기술에 주로 사용되는 이진 영상으로부터 사용자의 초기 입력 좌표를 기준점으로 채택한 후 기준점을 중심으로 선형 및 벡터 형상을 추출하는 반자동 선형 추출 기술 개발에 관해 기술한다. 본 기술의 동작 과정을 살펴보면 다음과 같다. 사용자는 이진 영상에서 추출하고자 하는 선형 및 벡터 형상내의 한 좌표를 선택한다. 선택된 좌표는 기준점으로 채택되며, 이 기준점을 중심으로 네 방향으로 영암 값이 0인 픽셀들의 길이 및 orientation이 계산된다. 계산된 orientation을 바탕으로 폭 넓이가 계산되고 초기 좌표가 보정된 후 폭 넓이가 임계값을 만족시키면 동일한 선형물로 간주하여 추출 연산을 반복 수행하고, 폭넓이가 임계값을 벗어나면 새로운 선형물로 간주하고 추출을 중단한다 즉, 채택된 기준값을 중심으로 동일한 명암값의 검색을 진행하여 기준값과 유사한 방향성 및 폭 넓이 정보를 갖는 성분들의 중심 좌표를 선형물 추출 결과값으로 산출하는 기술이다. 본 기술을 통해 수작업으로 진행되던 지도 제작 및 Head-up Digitizing / Vectorizing 기술이 컴퓨터를 이용한 반자동기술로 대체될 수 있으며, 이를 통해 많은 인원과 시간을 소모하여야 했던 좌표 지도제작을 위성 영상을 이용하여 보다 쉽고 저렴한 가격으로 수행할 수 있는 방안을 제시할 수 있다.

  • One set of rotor coils is required per each large generator rotor assembly, Rotors consist of two directly opposing poles. Each pole requires from 5 to 9 coils. Each coil is made up of two halves identified on the connection end. These coil halves will be joined together by butt brazing process during subsequent rotor assembly. Each half coil is made up of typically 4 to 9 layers of copper conductors. Because of Generator rotor is rotated very high speed with 3,600RPM, the quality soundness of brazed joints is very important at each coil. But, it is very difficult to be optimized non-destructive evaluation, because c-coil has the long shape and evaluation is to be done assembled condition. In this paper introduce newly developed inspection process and acceptance standards for the ultrasonic inspection of " C" coil butt braze. This inspection system is a semi-automatic ultrasonic flaw detector with data acquisition and retention capable of assessing the relative lack of bond of brazed butt joints

  • This paper presents a new method for generating smooth free-form surface by local correction. B-spline surface is used for its convenience of local correction, and the direction of surface correction is fixed to the average-surface-normal direction. The surface to be corrected is approximated into a uniform cubic B-spline surface. Then, the smoothness (curvature arrows, iso-parametric lines) of the approximated surface is displayed with B-spline control points. When a control point near the region that needs correction is selected, a new point 1 mm higher than the original control point in the direction of the average surface normal is displayed. And the surface is corrected by giving the amount of control point movement interactively. Since the direction of correction is given by the program and the amount of correction is selected by the user, the method is called semiautomatic. sufficiently smooth surface can be obtained by this method. Examples are given to illustrate the method.
