In stereo vision, when we use two parallel axis images, small portion of object is contained and B/H(Base-line to Height) ratio is limited due to the size of object and depth information is inaccurate. To overcome these difficulities we take a non-parallel axis image which is rotated $\theta$ about y-axis and match other parallel-axis image. Epipolar lines of non-parallel axis image are not same as those of parallel-axis image and we can't match these two images directly. In this paper, we transform the non-parallel axis image geometrically with camera parameters, whose epipolar lines are alingned parallel. NCC(Normalized Cross Correlation) is used as match measure, area-based matching technique is used find correspondence and 9$\times$9 window size is used, which is chosen experimentally. Focal length which is necessary to get depth information of given object is calculated with least-squares method by CCD camera characteristics and lenz property. Finally, we select 30 test points from given object whose elevation is varied to 150 mm, calculate heights and know that height RMS error is 7.9 mm.

Continuous research efforts have been made on acquiring location data on construction sites. As a result, GPS and RFID are increasingly employed on the site to track the location of equipment and materials. However, these systems are based on radio frequency technologies which require attaching tags on every target entity. Implementing the systems incurs time and costs for attaching/detaching/managing the tags or sensors. For this reason, efforts are currently being made to track construction entities using only cameras. Vision-based 3D tracking has been presented in a previous research work in which the location of construction manpower, vehicle, and materials were successfully tracked. However, the proposed system is still in its infancy and yet to be implemented on practical applications for two reasons. First, it does not involve entity matching across two views, and thus cannot be used for tracking multiple entities, simultaneously. Second, the use of a checker board in the camera calibration process entails a focus-related problem when the baseline is long and the target entities are located far from the cameras. This paper proposes a vision-based method to track multiple workers simultaneously. An entity matching procedure is added to acquire the matching pairs of the same entities across two views which is necessary for tracking multiple entities. Also, the proposed method simplified the calibration process by avoiding the use of a checkerboard, making it more adequate to the realistic deployment on construction sites.

본 논문에서는 적응적 변이추정 기법을 이용한 새로운 중간시점영상합성 방법을 제시하였다. 즉, 스테레오 입력 영상으로부터 특징값을 추출하고, 설정된 임계값과 비교하여 특징값의 크기를 결정한 다음, 특징값의 크기에 따라 정합창의 크기를 적응적으로 선택하여 정합함으로써 중간시점의 영상을 합성하는 새로운 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 기법에서는 배경과 같인 특징값이 작은 영역에서는 비교적 큰 정합창에 의한 블록정합이 이루어지고 물체의 윤곽선과 같이 특징값이 큰 영역에서는 상대적으로 작은 정합창에 의한 미세한 정합이 적응적으로 수행되기 때문에 전체적인 정합성능의 개선뿐만 아니라 기존의 기법에서 나타나는 오정합이나 블록화 현상등의 문제점 해결의 가능성을 제시하였다. 또한, 'Parts' 및 'Piano' 영상을 사용한 실험결과 본 논문에서 새로이 제안한 중간시점 영상합성 방법은 기존의 방식에 비해 평균적으로 PSNR은 약 2.32∼4.16dB가 향상되었고, 수행시간은 약 39.34∼65.58% 감소됨을 확인하였다.

Conventional stereo matching algorithms fail when they deal with anaglyph image as its input because anaglyph image does not have similar intensity on both view images. To ameliorate such problems, we propose a robust method to obtain accurate disparity maps. The novel Absolute Adaptive Normalized Cross Correlation (AANCC) for anaglyph data cost is introduced in this paper. Then, it is followed by occlusion detection and segmentation-based plane fitting to achieve accurate depth map acquisition. Experimental results confirm that the proposed anaglyph data cost is robust and gives accurate disparity maps.

In this paper, we present a robust and fast method that enables real-time computing of axial motion component of different points of a scene from a stereo images sequence. The aim of our method is to establish axial motion maps by computing a range of disparity maps. We propose a solution in two steps. In the first step we estimate motion with a low level computing for an image point by a detection estimation-structure. In the second step, we use the neighbourhood information of the image point with morphology operation. The motion maps are established with a constant computation time without spatio-temporal matching.

Before performing an adaptive stereo matching using satellite images, classification is needed as a preprocessing step. This paper describes that classification of three land cover types : river, mountain, and agricultural fields. We proposed that classification algorithm using pyramid structure and texture features. Results of applying the proposed algorithm to satellite image improved classification accuracy.

The distance detection system receives stereo video input through 2 CCD cameras. Using a decoder, the image is changed to the YCbCr4:2:2 format and only the Y signal is saved in the 4*256*8bit shift register of the Dual-Port SRAM. As a result of the matching procedure, the Depth value, which is the distance information, is saved in SRAM, and the Depth Map is made and output to the TFT-LCD screen.

There has been much advancement in the field of aerial cameras for geographical features with the help of drones, image processing power and computer aided optical programs. In this study, we propose a new optical lens design technique which minimizes the amount of ‘the third order Seidel aberration’ for enhancing MTF. In addition, we suggest a new optical lens design which stabilizes the mass-production yield through R.S.M and has robustness secure through the Taguchi method. Eventually, the image processing algorithm of stereo matching is implemented in order to evaluate whether the proposed lens design result meets adequate specifications for the use of dual aerial photographs or not. This paper provides good guidance for the optical design by development of experiments.

This paper presents a 3D feature extraction method using rough set theory. Using the stereo cameras, we obtain the raw images and then perform several processes including gradient computation and image matching process. Decision rule constructed via rough set theory determines whether a ceratin point in the image is 3D edge or not. We propose a method finding rules for 3D edge extraction using rough set.

To get a good result of the feature-based stereo matching, contour of buildings must be extracted exactly. In this paper, an algorithm that extracts contour of flat top buildings exactly is proposed. The Algorithm is composed of three steps. One is to find corner points of 4 types in whole image and another is to extract exact lines between coners by edge following technique, the third is to extract exact contour of buildings using binding structures. We have a good result in extracting contour of buildings.
