A vision-based tool position estimation system for the inspection and maintenance manipulator working inside the steam generator bowl of nuclear power plants can help human operators ensure that the inspection probe or plug are inserted to the targeted tube. Some previous research proposed a simplified tube position verification system that counts the tubes passed through during the motion and displays only the position of the tool. In this paper, by using a general camera calibration approach, tool orientation is also estimated. In order to reduce the computation time and avoid the parameter bias problem in an ellipse fitting, a small number of edge points are collected around the large section of the ellipse boundary. Experiment results show that the camera calibration parameters, detected ellipses, and estimated tool position are appropriate.

In this paper, a slim type actuator is proposed rising a bimorph PZT and a circular rotor link. The bimorph contacts the circular rotor, and its displacement generates the rotational motion of the rotor. The rotor causes the linear motion of AF and zoom lens through gear and a motion guide. The proposed model enables the actuations of many lens groups for zoom module by extending the single lens model. The important design parameter is the contact force determined by the frictional coefficient and preload between the rotor and PZT bimorph. A prototype of the single actuator model is manufactured and experiments results using LDV and tachometer are compared to the theoretical and numerical predictions. Experiments show the linear bimorph actuator model meets the performance criteria of the lens actuation, and it can be applicable to various slim type actuators for AF and zoom motions in mobile cameras.

The point of impact, the shot group, and the flight traces depend on the combination of unique features which decide moving traces of the arrow (paradox of the archer, length of the arrow shaft, weight, angle of the feather, and spline of the arrow shaft). The more dense the impact points in the shot group and the earlier elimination of paradox of the archer, the higher assessment is given for the product. However, there is no way to objectively assess the efficiency and quality of the arrow, and there is no numeric data to be used as the basis for comparison with other products. Although capturing the images of flying arrow using a high-speed motion picture camera is possible, we are limited to observation from specific view angle only. Hence, the criteria for efficiency and quality assessment are mostly based on subjective opinions of experts or hunters, or review on consumers' remarks. In this paper, we propose a hardware composition that are based on three detection frames consisting of line lasers and photo diode arrays without the high-speed motion picture camera. Predicated on measured coordinates data, a nobel method for the archer's paradox measurement, a key parameter that determine the arrow's trajectory, and corresponding numerical analysis model is proposed.

영상 시퀀스는 획득과정에서 주변부의 밝기 변화와 그림자 등으로 인해 원치 않는 밝기 변화가 포함될 수 있다. 시각적으로 성가신 훼손 형태로 표현되는 이러한 플리커(flicker)는 움직임 벡터의 계산이나 물체의 추출과 같은 후 처리에 많은 영향을 미치므로 미리 제거하는 것이 바람직하다. 본 논문은 플리커를 발생시키는 모델을 분석하고 이를 제거하는 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 플리커를 유발하는 게인과 오프셋 파라미터를 분리하여 추정하고 이를 훼손된 영상에 보정하여 영상 시퀀스를 안정화 시킨다. 제안하는 방법을 장면에서 움직임이 없는 인위적인 테스트 영상 시퀀스와 움직임이 있는 실제 영상 시퀀스에 적용하여 알고리즘의 성능을 보였다.

Terrain reconstruction from images is an ill-posed, yet commonly desired Structure from Motion task when compositing visual effects into live-action photography. These surfaces are required for choreography of a scene, casting physically accurate shadows of CG elements, and occlusions. We present a novel framework for generating the geometry of landscapes from extremely noisy point cloud datasets obtained via limited resolution techniques, particularly optical flow based vision algorithms applied to live-action video plates. Our contribution is a new statistical approach to remove erroneous tracks ('outliers') by employing a unique combination of well established techniques-including Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) for robust parameter estimation and Radial Basis Functions (REFs) for scattered data interpolation-to exploit the natural constraints of this problem. Our algorithm offsets the tremendously laborious task of modeling these landscapes by hand, automatically generating a visually consistent, camera position dependent, thin-shell surface mesh within seconds for a typical tracking shot.

Our paper proposes a novel moving object tracking scheme for biped robot using a single camera. For walking control of a biped robot we analyze the dynamics of a three-dimensional inverted pendulum model. This analysis leads us a simple linear dynamics. And, the control parameter of the biped robot is derived from the feedback signal which converges the position of a image feature to the feature position of a desired image and the feedforward signal which compensates the motion component due to the moving object.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in biomechanical variables of golf driving motion according to gender. Method: A total of 21 healthy golfers (11 men and 10 women) who have more than 5 years of professional experience and have been registered in the Korea Golf Association was recruited. A 250-Hz 8-camera motion capture system (MX-T20, Vicon, LA, USA) was used to capture the motion trajectories of a total of 42 reflective markers attached to the golfer's body and club. Moreover, two 1,000-Hz AMTI force plates (AMTI OR6-7-400, AMTI, MA, USA) were used to measure the ground reaction force. The mean and standard deviation for each parameter were then calculated for both groups of 21 subjects. SPSS Windows version 23.0 was used for statistical analysis. The independent t-test was used to determine the differences between groups. An alpha level of .05 was utilized in all tests. Results: There were differences in joint angles according to gender during golf driver swing. Men showed a statistically significantly higher peak joint angle and maximum range of angle in sagittal and frontal axis of the pelvis, hip, and knee. Moreover, women's swing of the pelvis and hips was found to have a pattern using the peak joint angle and range of angle in the vertical axis of the pelvis and hip. There were the differences in peak joint moment according to gender during golf driver swing. Men used higher joint moment in the downswing phase than women in the extensor, abductor, and external rotator muscles of the right hip; flexor and adductor muscles of left hip joint; and flexor and extensor muscles of the right knee. Conclusion: This result reveals that male golfers conducted driver swing using stronger force of the lower body and ground reaction force based on strength of hip and thigh than female golfers.

이동 객체에 대한 추적 기술은 최근 중요성이 강조되고 있는 동영상 이해에서 가장 핵심적인 기술의 하나라 할 수 있다. 하지만, 동영상이 가지는 조명의 불안정, 객체의 크기나 형태 변화, 카메라 움직임, 그리고 중첩 등으로 인해 동영상 내의 이동 객체 추적은 많은 어려움을 가지고 있다. 객체 추적의 가장 대표적인 종래의 방법인 칼만 필터와 파티클 필터의 문제점을 개선하는 방법으로 스웜 기반의 방법이 제안되어 있으나 동적으로 변화하는 이동 객체의 특징을 반영하는 개선된 알고리즘이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 특징을 반영하여 파티클 스웜 최적화 방법에서 사용되는 파라미터 중 가중치 값을 동적으로 변화하는 적응적 파라미터 제어 방법을 제안한다. 각 파티클을 특성에 따라 3가지 종류로 구분하고 각각 서로 다른 가중치 값을 부여하는 방식으로 객체 추적의 성능을 개선할 수 있다. 제안된 알고리즘의 적용 결과 중첩 또는 예측하기 어려운 움직임 등과 같은 객체의 비선형적인 움직임이 있는 동영상에 대해 기존 파티클 스웜 방식에 비해 현저한 성능 개선을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 시퀀스 이미지에서 스케일-스페이스 필터링을 통한 특징점 추출과 질감도(texturedness) 비교를 적용한 특징점 추적 알고리즘을 제안한다. 특징점을 추출하기 위해서 정의된 오퍼레이터를 이용하는데, 이때 설정되는 스케일 파라미터는 특징점 선정 및 위치 설정에 영향을 주게 되며, 특징점 추적 알고리즘의 성능과도 관계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 스케일-스페이스 필터링을 통한 특징점 선정 및 위치 설정 방안을 제시한다. 영상 시퀀스에서, 카메라 시점 변화 또는 물체의 움직임은 특징점 추적 윈도우내에 아핀 변환을 가지게 하는데, 대응점 추적을 위한 유사도 측정에 어려움을 준다. 본 논문에서는 Shi-Tomasi-Kanade 추적 알고리즘에 기반하여, 아핀 변환에 비교적 견실한 특징점의 질감도 비교를 수행하는 최적 대응점 탐색 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, a compliant buoy mooring system of a floating cylindrical structure in shallow water depth is studied experimentally. The compliant buoy mooring system consists of four buoys, vertical mooring legs and horizontal mooring lines. A series of model test were carried out at KRISO ocean engineering basin for various mooring parameters; line length, pretension of mooring leg and mooring layouts and environmental conditions; regular and irregular waves combined with current and wind. The mooring line tensions and 6-DOF motions of the floating structure were measured using water-proof load cells and 3 CCD camera system. The results of a series of model tests were discussed on nonlinear motion behaviors of the floating structure and characterisitics of cumulative distributions of mooring line peak tensions.
