It is necessary to develop method that human and computer can interfact by the hand gesture without any special device. In this thesis, the real time hand gesture recognition was developed. The system segments the region of a hand recognizes the hand posture and track the movement of the hand, using computer vision. And it does not use the blue screen as a background, the data glove and special markers for the recognition of the hand gesture.

With the recent trend of intelligence and automation of construction work, a double-blade road cutter is being developed that automatically enables cutting along the cutting line marked on the road using a vision system. The road cutter can recognize the cutting line through the camera and correct the driving route in real-time, and it detects the load of the cutting blade in real-time to control the driving speed in case of overload to protect workers and cutting blades. In this study, a vision system mounted on a double-blade road cutter was developed. A cutting route recognition technology was developed to stably recognize cutting lines displayed on non-uniform road surfaces, and performance was verified in similar environments. In addition, a vision sensor protection module was developed to prevent foreign substances (dust, water, etc.) generated during cutting from being attached to the camera.

This paper describes about the vision system, which was developed for the recognition of material management characters in the slab processing line. The material management characters, which are marked at the surface of a slab, are recognized by real time processing before slab moves to the next hot strip line. The vision system for the character recognition include that CCD camera system which acquire slab image, image transmission system which transmit captured image to the long distance, I/O devices for the interface with peripheral control system. We have installed vision system to the slab processing line and tested. Through the testing, we have checked durability, reliability and recognition rate of our system. In the results, we have confirmed that our system have good performance and higher recognition ability.

There has been requested to automate the welding process in shipyard due to its dependence on skilled operators and the inferior working environments. According to these demands, multiple robot welding system for sub-assembly welding line has been developed, realized and installed at Keoje Shipyard. In order to realize automatic welding system, robots have to be equipped with the sensing system to recognize the position of the welding panels. In this research, a camera vision system is developed to detect the position of base panels for subassembly line in shipbuilding. Two camera vision systems are used in two different stages (Mounting and Welding) to automate the recognition and positioning of welding lines. For automatic recognition of panel position, various image processing algorithms are proposed in this paper.

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.

In this paper, we investigate a real-time environment recognition system based on stereo vision for moving object. This system consists of stereo matching, obstacle detection and distance estimation. In stereo matching part, depth maps can be obtained real road images captured adjustable baseline stereo vision system using belief propagation(BP) algorithm. In detection part, various obstacles are detected using only depth map in case of both v-disparity and column detection method under the real road environment. Finally in estimation part, asymmetric parabola fitting with NCC method improves estimation of obstacle detection. This stereo vision system can be applied to many applications such as unmanned vehicle and robot.

The process of character recognition goes through 5 steps; image acquisition, character region extraction, preprocessing, character region segmentation, character recognition. Therefore the final recognition rate of character recognition is directly affected by the performance of each step. This paper is a leading research for object recognition using image processing algorithm which is one of the field of study in computer vision. And this paper will suggest an algorithm to extract the portion of number chain, which is part of the research embodying a system to perceive the data of manufacture and the name of the producer on the wrapping of groceries. In addition, this can extract the number chain comparatively accurate without using many complex algorithm by diving and extracting the moving number region at the same time.

When washing machine is rotated in the laundry, it tends to lean toward one side. This tendency causes a serious vibration. The balance of washing machine plays an important role in order to reduce the vibration by injecting the sand or the salt water into the balance of washing machine. The hot plate welder is used to prevent from outflow of contents. The hot plate welder brings about many problems which is concerned with accidents. The direction recognition and location information of the balance are required in this system. In this paper, the recognition direction of balance in washing machine using machine vision system is studied. The template matching algorithm compares sub-image with original image acquired in real-time to obtain a center point of balance image. The mid points and the edges of balance are estimated by the edge detection and gauging algorithms. The data acquired by these results is used for recognition direction of balance. The automation software for image processing is developed by using LabVIEW.

This paper presents an active vision system for on-line traffic sign recognition. The system is composed of two cameras, one is equipped with a wide-angle lens and the other with a telephoto lends, and a PC with an image processing board. The system first detects candidates for traffic signs in the wide-angle image using color, intensity, and shape information. For each candidate, the telephoto-camera is directed to its predicted position to capture the candidate in a large size in the image. The recognition algorithm is designed by intensively using built in functions of an off-the-shelf mage processing board to realize both easy implementation and fast recognition. The results of on-road experiments show the feasibility of the system.
