이 연구는 1992년 8월 11일과 1993년 9월 26일 발사된 우리별 1호 및 우리별 2호의 열제어 모델 및 그 동안의 운용 결과에 대한 해석을 바탕으로 한 것이다. 우리별 1, 2호는 아리안 발사체의 초소형 위성 탑재를 위한 특수 구조물에 장착되어 발사되었기 때문에 크기, 전력, 무게 등의 제한으로 인해 외부로부터의 열 흡수와 방출의 제어 및 내부의 연결 모듈간의 열 흐름을 제어하여 위성체 전반의 열적 환경을 조절하는 수동적인 방식의 열제어를 채택하게 되었다. 우리별 위성의 주 임무는 위성 기술의 개발과 더불어 위성체 바닥면에 탑재된 CCD 카메라를 이용하여 지구 표면을 촬영하는 것이었기 때문에 위성의 바닥면은 항상 지구의 중심을 향하고 있게 된다. 이 연구는 위성의 임무 궤도에 대한 분석으로부터 열 모델링, 시뮬레이션 결과 및 우리별 2호의 실제 운용헤서 얻어진 원격검침 정보를 바탕으로 한 열 모델의 평가를 포함한다. 이 분석 결과를 바탕으로 수동 제어에 의한 우리별 위성의 열 모델 및 해석이 실제 측정된 온도 데이터와 평균 오차 $$10^{\circ}C$ 이내에서 일치되었음을 보여 준다.

Thermal infrared imaging is a highly promising technology for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance of electronic, electrical and mechanical elements in nuclear power plants. However, conventional low-cost infrared imaging systems suffer from poor spatial resolution compared to commercial CCD cameras. This paper describes an approach to enhance inspection performances for calandria reactor area of Wolsung nuclear power plant through the technique of superimposing thermal infrared image into real CCD image. In the occurrence of thermal abnormalities on observation points and areas of calandria reactor area, unusual hot image taken from thermal infrared camera is mapped upon real CCD image. The performance of the technique has been evaluated in the experiment carried out at Wolsung nuclear power plant in the overhaul period. The results show that localizations of thermal abnormalities on calandria reactor face can be estimated accurately.

Depth information used in SLAM and visual odometry is essential in robotics. Depth information often obtained from sensors or learned by networks. While learning-based methods have gained popularity, they are mostly limited to RGB images. However, the limitation of RGB images occurs in visually derailed environments. Thermal cameras are in the spotlight as a way to solve these problems. Unlike RGB images, thermal images reliably perceive the environment regardless of the illumination variance but show lacking contrast and texture. This low contrast in the thermal image prohibits an algorithm from effectively learning the underlying scene details. To tackle these challenges, we propose multi-channel remapping for contrast. Our method allows a learning-based depth prediction model to have an accurate depth prediction even in low light conditions. We validate the feasibility and show that our multi-channel remapping method outperforms the existing methods both visually and quantitatively over our dataset.

This paper presents a composite camera calibration method to determine thermal degradation of power distribution equipment by combining an infrared (IR) camera and a color camera. A calibration jig was first constructed to match the properties of the two cameras. Our calibration and visualization techniques allow for the display of two images, one from the color camera and the other from the IR camera with different field of views (FOVs), on the screen at the same time. To confirm its validity, several case studies have been developed to analyze thermal deterioration limits of indoor and outdoor power distribution facilities.

Purpose The domestic aquaculture industry in South Korea utilizes both formulated feeds and live feeds for the cultivation of fish. While nutrient-rich live feeds, particularly using fry, have been preferred since the past, formulated feeds are gaining attention due to issues related to overfishing and environmental concerns. Formulated feeds are advantageous for storage and supply but require a sustained feeding regimen due to the comparatively slower growth rate compared to live feeds. As the aging population in rural areas leads to a shortage of labor, automated feeding systems are increasingly being adopted in aquaculture facilities. To enhance the efficiency of such systems, it is crucial to quantitatively analyze the behavioral changes in fish based on the presence or absence of feed. Design/methodology/approach In the study, RGB cameras and infrared cameras were used to analyze fish activity according to feeding, and an outline extraction algorithm was applied to analyze the differences resulting from this. Findings Unlike RGB cameras, infrared cameras are more suitable for analyzing underwater fish activity as they convert objects' thermal energy into images. It was observed that Canny, Sobel, and Prewitt filters showed the most distinct identification of fish activity.

Thermal infrared cameras have been conducted actively in various application areas, such as military, medical service, industries and cars. Because of their characteristic of sensing the radiant heat emitted from subjects in the range of long-wavelength($3{\sim}5{\mu}m$ or $8{\sim}12{\mu}m$), and of materializing a vision system, when general optics materials are used, they don't react to the light in the range of long-wavelength, and can't display their optic functions. Therefore, the materials with the feature of higher refractive index, reacting to the range of long-wavelength, are to be used. The kinds of materials with the characteristic of higher refractive index are limited, and their features are close to those of metals. Because of these metallic features, the existing producing method of optical systems were direct manufacturing method using grinding method or CAD/CAM, which put limit on productivity and made it difficult to properly cope with the increasing demand of markets. GASIR, a material, which can be molded easily, was selected among infrared ray optics materials in this study, and the optical system was designed with two Aspheric lenses. Because the lenses are molded in the environment of high temperature and high pressure, they require a special metallic pattern. The metallic pattern was produced with materials with ultra hardness that can stand high temperature and high pressure. As for the lens mold, GMP(Glass Molding Press) of the linear transfer method was used in order to improve the productivity of optical systems for thermal infrared cameras, which was the goal of this paper.

본 논문에서는 조명이 없는 야간 및 악천후 등 가시영상 카메라를 이용하여 사람 영역을 추정하기 힘든 환경에서의 대안으로 열화상 카메라를 이용한 사람검출 방법을 제안한다. 일반적인 열화상에서 사람은 주변 배경에 비해 밝게 표현되는 특징을 이용하여, 밝기 히스토그램 상의 사람의 열화상의 신뢰 구간을 계산해 1차적으로 사람 영역을 추정한 뒤, 가우시안 필터링 및 레이블링을 통해 불필요한 잡음을 제거한다. 그 이후에 Self-occlusion 등에 의해 분리된 사람 영역을 각 blob별 무게중심 및 분포정보를 이용하여 하나의 객체 영역을 추정한다. 최종적으로 추정 영역에 대한 가로와 세로의 비율 및 크기 정보와 주성분분석(PCA; principal component analysis)를 이용하여 추정된 영역에 대하여 사람인지 여부를 결정한다. 실험결과를 통하여, 제안된 방법은 가시영상에서 검출하기 힘든 환경들에 대하여 좋은 성능을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Thermal infrared camera have poor image qualities compared to commercial CCD cameras, as in contrast, brightness, and. resolution. To compensate the poor Image quality problems associated with the thermal infrared camera, the technique of superimposing thermal infrared image into real ccd image is proposed. The mobile robot KAEROT/m2, loaded with sensor head system at the mast, is entered to monitor leakage of heavy water and thermal abnormality of the calandria reactor area in overhaul period. The sensor head system is composed of thermal infrared camera and cod camera In parallel. When thermal abnormality on observation points and areas of calandria reactor area is occurred, unusual hot image taken from thermal infrared camera is superimposed on real CCD image. In this inspection experiment, more accurate positions of thermal abnormalities on calandria reactor area can be estimated by using technique of mapping thermal infrared image into CCD image, which include characters arranged in MPOQ order.

Since face masks in public were mandated during COVID-19, more people have taken temperature checks, with their masks on. The study has developed a contactless thermal camera that accurately measures temperatures of people wearing different kinds of masks, detect people wearing masks wrong, and record the temperature data. The built-in system that identifies people wearing masks wrong is what masks our contactless thermal camera differentiated from other thermal cameras. Also our contactless thermal camera can keep track of the number of mask wearers in different regions and their temperatures. Thus, the analysis of such regional data can significantly contribute to stemming the spread of the virus.
