This paper a new approach to the design of machine vision technique with a camera modeling that accounts for major sources of geometric distortion, namely, radial, decentering, and thin prism distortion. Radial distortion causes an inward or outward displacement of a given image point from its ideal location. Actual optical systems are subject to various degrees of decentering , that is , the optical centers of lens design and manufacturing as well as camera assembly. It is our propose to develop the vision system for the pattern recognition and the automatic test of parts and to apply the line of manufacturing. The performance of proposed vision system is illustrated by simulation and experiment.

This paper presents machine vision technique with a camera modeling that accounts for major sources of camera distortion, namely, radial, decentering, and thin prism distortion. Radial distortion causes an inward or outward displacement of a given image point from its ideal location. Actual optical systems are subject to various degrees of decentering, that is, the optical centers of lens elements are not strictly collinear. It is our purpose to develop the vision system for the pattern recognition and the automatic test of parts and to apply the line of manufacturing.

Radial distortion causes an inward or outward displacement of a given image point from its ideal location. Actual optical systems are subject to varios degrees of decentering,that is,the optical centers of lens elements are not strictly collinear. Thin prism distortion arises form imperfection in lens design and manufacturing as well as camera assembly. It is our purpose to develop the vision system for the pattern recognition and the automatic test of and to apply the line of part manufacturing.

In stereo vision, camera modeling is very important because the accuracy of the three dimensional locations depends considerably on it. In the existing stereo camera models, two camera planes are located in the same plane or on the optical axis. These camera models cannot be used in the active vision system where it is necessary to obtain two stereo images simultaneously. In this paper, we propose four kinds of stereo camera models for active stereo vision system where focal lengths of the two cameras are different and each camera is able to rotate independently. A single closed form solution is obtained for all models. The influence of the stereo camera model to the field of view, occlusion, and search area used for matching is shown in this paper. And errors due to inaccurate focal length are analyzed and simulation results are shown. It is expected that the three dimensional locations of objects are determined in real time by applying proposed stereo camera models to the active stereo vision system, such as a mobile robot.

작업환경 주변의 사물(target object)을 자동으로 인식하고 그 결과를 효과적으로 모델링하는 기술은 작업 품질, 생산성 등 개발 장비의 성능(performance)에도 지대한 영향을 미치게 되므로 이는 건설자동화 장비를 개발함에 있어 필수적으로 요구되는 핵심 요소기술이다. 현재 국내에서는 2006년부터 지능형 굴삭 로봇(intelligent robotic excavator)의 개발을 위하여 토공 작업환경을 대상으로 스테레오 비전을 활용하여 굴삭 로봇 주변 영역의 지반형상을 3차원으로 모델링하기 위한 기술을 개발하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 실제 토공 작업환경을 3차원으로 모델링하는 과정에서 필연적으로 발생되는 스테레오 매칭 노이즈를 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 다양한 토공작업 환경 요소가 포함된 스테레오 영상을 수집하고 토공 작업 환경의 3차원 모델링에 적합한 노이즈 제거 알고리즘을 제안하는 것이다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 디지털 영상처리 기술은 토공 작업환경을 대상으로 주변을 자동 인식하고 추출하고자 하는 관심의 대상을 3차원으로 모델링해야 하는 굴삭기 이외의 자동화 장비 개발에 있어서도 응용성이 매우 클 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, a method for recognizing 3-D objects using the 3-D Hough transform and the robust stereo vision is studied. A 3-D object is recognized through two steps; modeling step and matching step. In modeling step, features of the object are extracted by analyzing the IGES file. In matching step, the values of the sensed image are compared with those of the IGES file which is assumed to location and orientation in the 3-D Hough transform domain. Since we use the 3-D Hough transform domain of the input image directly, the sensitivity to the noise and the high computational complexity could be significantly allcv~ated. Also, the cost efficiency is improved using the robust stereo vision for obtaining depth map image which is needed for 3-D Hough transform. In order lo verify the proposed method, real telephone model is recognized. Thc results of the location and orientation of the model are presented.

A large-scaled research project titled "Intelligent Excavating System (IES)" sponsored by Korean government has launched in 2006. An issue of real-time 3D terrain modeling has become a crucial point for successful implementation of IES due to many application limitations of state-of-the-art techniques developed in various high-technology fields. Many feasible technologies such as laser scanning, structured lighting and so on were widely reviewed by professionals and researchers for one year. Various efforts such as literature reviews, interviews, and indoor experiments make us select a structural light technique and stereo vision technique as appropriate techniques for accomplishment of real-time 3D terrain modeling. It, however, revealed that off-the-shelf products of structural light and stereo-vision technique had many technical problems which should be resolved for practical applications in IES. This study introduces diverse methods modifying off-the-shelf package of the structural light method, one of feasible techniques and eventually allowing this technique to be successfully utilized for achieving fundamental research goals. This study also presents many efforts to resolve practical difficulties of this technique considering basic characteristics of excavating operations and particular environment of construction sites. Findings showed in this study would be beneficial for other researchers to conduct new researches for application of vision techniques to construction fields by provision of detail issues about practical application and diverse practical methods as solutions overcoming these issues.

In this paper we describe the 6-axes robot's position determination using a stereo vision and an image based control method. When use a stereo vision, it need a additional time to compare with mono vision system. So to reduce the time required, we use the stereo vision not image Jacobian matrix estimation but depth estimation. Image based control is not needed the high-precision of camera calibration by using a image Jacobian. The experiment is executed as devide by two part. The first is depth estimation by stereo vision and the second is robot manipulator's positioning.

Structural digital models can be effectively established by spatially obtaining digital images using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). One of the main purposes of the structural digital modeling is computer vision-based exterior damage detection of a target structure. To investigate micro-scale damage from the digital model, high-resolution digital images obtained with a close-up vision survey is typically required. However, serial image synthesis such as image stitching may cumulate stitching errors as the number of scanned images increases. Therefore, in this paper, a novel loop closure-based digital image stitching technique is proposed and experimentally validated using the close-up surveyed digital images acquired from an in-situ dam structure located in South Korea. The test results reveal that the proposed technique outperforms a non-loop closure-based image stitching technique, which can cause serious distortions, such as ghosting and vanishing phenomena.
