본 연구는 구조물의 변위계측에 있어 비접촉방법인 디지털 카메라를 이용한 근접수치사진측량을 이용한 실험결과를 제시한 것이다. 근접수치사진측량을 구조물 변위계측에 적용하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 카메라 자체검정을 통하여 기하학적 해석 정확도를 저해하는 렌즈의 왜곡에 대한 보정을 실시한 후 구조물의 변위계측을 위하여 자체제작한 라멘구조물에 각각의 하중을 재하하여 변위계측을 실시하였다. 또한 변위계측시 현장 적용성을 높이기 위하여 구조해석 프로그램인 MIDAS를 이용하여 모델링한 후 비교분석하였다. 그 결과 현재 구조물 안전진단에 활용되고 있는 LVDT, 케이블식변위계등 접촉식변위계가 가지고 있는 단점인 현장접근의 어려움, 설치비 과다등의 단점을 극복할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였으며, 특히 실측 시간의 단축으로 인한 경제성을 확보할 수 있었다. 따라서 디지털 카메라를 이용한 근접수치사진측량은 구조물의 변위계측 뿐만 아니라 구조물의 3차원 모델링, 구조물의 실측형상재현 등 시각적 분석이 필요한 분야에 다양하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Efficient management of deteriorating civil infrastructure is one of the most important research topics in many developed countries. In particular, the remote displacement measurement of bridges using linear variable differential transformers, global positioning systems, laser Doppler vibrometers, and computer vision technologies has been attempted extensively. This paper proposes a remote displacement measurement system using closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs) and a computer-vision-based method for in-situ bridge bearings having relatively large displacement due to temperature change in long term. The hardware of the system is composed of a reference target for displacement measurement, a CCTV to capture target images, a gateway to transmit images via a mobile network, and a central server to store and process transmitted images. The usage of CCTV capable of night vision capture and wireless data communication enable long-term 24-hour monitoring on wide range of bridge area. The computer vision algorithm to estimate displacement from the images involves image preprocessing for enhancing the circular features of the target, circular Hough transformation for detecting circles on the target in the whole field-of-view (FOV), and homography transformation for converting the movement of the target in the images into an actual expansion displacement. The simple target design and robust circle detection algorithm help to measure displacement using target images where the targets are far apart from each other. The proposed system is installed at the Tancheon Overpass located in Seoul, and field experiments are performed to evaluate the accuracy of circle detection and displacement measurements. The circle detection accuracy is evaluated using 28,542 images captured from 71 CCTVs installed at the testbed, and only 48 images (0.168%) fail to detect the circles on the target because of subpar imaging conditions. The accuracy of displacement measurement is evaluated using images captured for 17 days from three CCTVs; the average and root-mean-square errors are 0.10 and 0.131 mm, respectively, compared with a similar displacement measurement. The long-term operation of the system, as evaluated using 8-month data, shows high accuracy and stability of the proposed system.

This paper investigates the framework of vision-based dense displacement and strain measurement of miter gates with the approach for the quantitative evaluation of the expected performance. The proposed framework consists of the following steps: (i) Estimation of 3D displacement and strain from images before and after deformation (water-fill event), (ii) evaluation of the expected performance of the measurement, and (iii) selection of measurement setting with the highest expected accuracy. The framework first estimates the full-field optical flow between the images before and after water-fill event, and project the flow to the finite element (FE) model to estimate the 3D displacement and strain. Then, the expected displacement/strain estimation accuracy is evaluated at each node/element of the FE model. Finally, methods and measurement settings with the highest expected accuracy are selected to achieve the best results from the field measurement. A physics-based graphics model (PBGM) of miter gates of the Greenup Lock and Dam with the updated texturing step is used to simulate the vision-based measurements in a photo-realistic environment and evaluate the expected performance of different measurement plans (camera properties, camera placement, post-processing algorithms). The framework investigated in this paper can be used to analyze and optimize the performance of the measurement with different camera placement and post-processing steps prior to the field test.

This paper proposes a way to measure the displacement of a multi-point by using a pattern recognition from video signal. Generally in measuring displacement, gab sensor, which is a displacement sensor, is used. However, it is difficult to measure displacement by using a common sensor in places where it is unsuitable to attach a sensor, such as high-temperature areas or radioactive places. In this kind of places, non-contact methods should be used to measure displacement and in this study, images of CCD camera were used. When displacement is measure by using camera images, it is possible to measure displacement with a non-contact method. It is simple to install and multi-point displacement measuring device so that it is advantageous to solve problems of spatial constraints.

본 연구에서는 특수한 상황(미끄러짐 발생 및 회전관성이 부하로 작용하는 경우)에서의 회전 엔코더 기반 측정방법의 단점을 극복하기 위하여 광 변위센서(ADNS-9500)를 사용한 비접촉식 변위 측정방법을 제안하였다. 정확한 변위 측정을 위해 데이터 수집 보드와 랩뷰를 활용하여 실험적으로 광 변위센서의 성능을 분석하였으며, 반복실험을 통해 실험조건(측정방향, 속도, 가속도, 높이, 표면 재질)에 따른 광 변위센서의 성능특성을 파악하였다. 성능실험 결과, 광 변위센서를 사용하여 정확하게 평면운동을 측정하기 위해서는 광 변위센서와 지면(대상 물체의 표면)과의 높이를 2.4 mm-3.2 mm로 일정하게 유지시켜야 하며, 각각의 축 방향, 속도, 표면 재질을 고려하여 민감도를 수정하여 변위 계산식에 적용해야 하는 것을 확인하였다.

Among the sensors mainly used for displacement measurement, there are a linear CCD(Charge Coupled Device) and a PSD(Position Sensitive Detector) as a non-contact type. Their structures are different very much, which means that the signal processing of both sensors should be applied in the different ways. Most of the displacement measurement systems to get the 3-D shape profile of an object using a linear CCD are a computer-based system. It means that all of algorithms and mathematical operations are performed through a computer program to measure the displacement. However, in this paper, the developed system has microprocessor and other digital components that make the system measure the displacement of an object without a computer. The thing different from the previous system is that AVR microprocessor and FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) technology, and a comparator is used to play the role of an A/D(Analog to Digital) converter. Furthermore, an ATC(Automatic Threshold Control) algorithm is applied to find the highest pixel data that has the real displacement information. According to the size of the light circle incident on the surface of the CCD, the threshold value to remove the noise and useless data is changed by the operation of AVR microprocessor. The total system consists of FPGA, AVR microprocessor, and the comparator. The developed system has the improvement and shows the better performance than the system not using the ATC algorithm for displacement measurement.

For structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil infrastructures, displacement is a good descriptor of the structural behavior under all the potential disturbances. However, it is not easy to measure displacement of civil infrastructures, since the conventional sensors need a reference point, and inaccessibility to the reference point is sometimes caused by the geographic conditions, such as a highway or river under a bridge, which makes installation of measuring devices time-consuming and costly, if not impossible. To resolve this issue, a visionbased real-time displacement measurement system using digital image processing techniques is developed. The effectiveness of the proposed system was verified by comparing the load carrying capacities of a steel-plate girder bridge obtained from the conventional sensor and the present system. Further, to simultaneously measure multiple points, a synchronized vision-based system is developed using master/slave system with wireless data communication. For the purpose of verification, the measured displacement by a synchronized vision-based system was compared with the data measured by conventional contact-type sensors, linear variable differential transformers (LVDT) from a laboratory test.

For the precision measurement of industrial products, the location of holes inside the products, if they exist, are often selected as feature points. The measurement of hole location would be performed by vision and laser-vision sensor. However, the usage of those sensors is limited in case of big change of light intensity and reflective shiny surface of the products. In order to overcome the difficulties, we have developed a hole displacement measuring device using contact-type displacement sensors (LVDTs). The developed measurement device attached to a robot measures small displacement of a hole by allowing its X-Y movement due to the contact forces between the hole and its own circular cone. The developed device consists of three plates which are connected in series for its own function. The first plate is used for the attachment to an industrial robot with ball-bush joints and springs. The second and third plates allow X-Y direction as LM guides. The bottom of the third plate is designed that various circular cones can be easily attached according to the shape of the hole. The developed system was implemented for its effectiveness that its measurement accuracy is less than 0.05mm.

터널 굴착에 의해 발생되는 주변 지반의 변위는 터널의 안정성 평가를 위해 중요한 정보가 된다. 실제 시공중 계측에 의해 획득되어 지는 변위량은 불가피하게 계측전 발생한 변위를 포함하지 못하게 된다. 따라서, 계측이 이루어진 시점을 고려하여 계측전 발생한 변위량을 예측하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 초기 계측이 이루어진 시점에 따라 계측전 변위 예측의 정확도를 굴착면과 계측지점의 이격거리만을 고려하여 통계적 기법으로 고찰하였다. 또한, 계측 오차가 변위 예측결과에 미치는 영향을 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 통하여 살펴보았다. 연구결과 초기 계측이 이루어진 이격거리가 커질수록 전체 변위 이력곡선의 예측 정확도는 급격히 감소하였으며, 계측오차가 커질수록 예측 정확도가 낮아지는 경향을 확인하였다.
