본 논문이 제안하는 동작검출 알고리즘은 빛에 대한 불규칙성을 이용하여 동작영역을 탐색하는 방식으로, 기존 3 way-diff 알고리즘에서 주장한 반사된 빛 영역을 수식화하여 추출한다. 즉, 3 way-diff 알고리즘을 확장한 알고리즘이다. 3 way-diff 알고리즘은 연속된 3개의 이미지를 사용하여 반사된 빛 영역을 추출한다. 이 알고리즘에서 주장하는 반사된 빛 영역이란 이미지 제작과정에서 빛에 의해 발생된 영역으로 모든 사물 주변에 미세하게 생성된다. 이러한 영역을 추출하기 위해 하나의 과정을 보인다. 하지만 이 과정은 단순한 작업일 뿐 빛에 대한 수식이 정의되지 않았다. 본 논문은 3 way-diff 알고리즘에서 주장하는 반사된 빛 영역을 잡음의 일종이라 판단하여 반사된 빛 영역을 추출하는 수식을 정의한다. 제안된 알고리즘과 기존 알고리즘들에 실험을 통해 성능비교를 보인다.

AI 기술이 발전함에 따라 자율주행의 안전성에 관한 관심이 대두되고 있다. 최근, 자율주행의 차량이 증가하고 있지만 그에 대한 부작용을 해소하기 위한 노력은 다소 부진한 실정이다. 특히, 야간에 운행되는 자율주행 차량은 더욱 많은 문제들을 안고 있다. 운행의 다양한 환경에서 야간 주행의 환경은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 야간 자율주행 차량에서 핵심적인 문제점으로 부상하고 있는 반대 차량의 전조등 또는 주위 다양한 조명에 의해 발생되는 반사광을 감소시키는 방안을 제안한다. 이를 위하여, 먼저, 야간 주행 중에 센서에 의해 획득한 영상에서 반사광 특성 정보를 활용하여 조명 반사광을 추출한 후, 반사계수를 활용한 각 픽셀의 색상을 찾아 specular 영역을 감소한다. 그 후 영역의 밝기성분만을 이용한 새로운 영역을 찾아 최종적으로 이를 감소하는 방안을 제시한다. 조명 반사광을 완벽히 감소할 수는 없지만 대체적으로 만족할 만한 결과를 얻을 수 가 있었다. 따라서 제안된 연구 방법이 야간에서의 자율주행에서 다양한 단점 및 문제들을 해결하고 사고를 줄이는 방법에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

From the Beckmann's reflection model of wave incident, reflected light from a surface is known to have not only specular but also diffuse components. The specular component dominant a surface for a mirror-like surface is distributed on the almost the same area as the spot on the surface, but the diffuse component region dominant f3r a rough surface spreads scattered on the larger areas than the spot. Therefore, statistic parameters from the scattered light distribution are more meaningful in the diffuse region, while the magnitude of rather meaning in the specular region. In usual, there need two sensors to acquire two kinds of information: Photo-detector for light intensity magnitude and image sensor for light intensity distribution. But dual sensor scheme requires a beam splitter usually to feed light to each sensor, and moreover there is not a combination rule to relieve the different sensor characteristics. In this study a new method is proposed for acquisition of the dual information using only an image sensor. Specular region is established on an image area being distinguished from a diffuse component, and laser power is adjusted so that no pixel of the image sensor in the specular region is saturated. Simulation based on the light reflection theory and the experimental results are quite well matched, and thus the proposed method was proved to be very useful for mirror-like surface measurement.

실시간 동작영역 검출 알고리즘의 차영상 기법은 배경프레임을 이용한 방식과 이전프레임을 이용한 방식으로 구분된다. 배경프레임을 이용한 방식은 사전에 분석한 배경정보를 기반으로 정확한 동작영역을 검출할 수 있는 방법이다. 하지만 배경정보가 변경될 경우 정보갱신이 요구되므로, 실시간 응용분야에 제한적이다. 이전프레임을 이용한 방식은 현재프레임과 시차간격이 존재하는 이전프레임을 취득하여 동작의 윤곽선을 검출한다. 하지만 실제 윤곽선과 오차를 보여 보정이 필요하다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문이 제안하는 3 way-diff 알고리즘은 프레임 제작과정 중 발생되는 반사된 빛 영역과 차영상 기법을 이용해 동작의 윤곽선을 구하므로, 기존 방식들에 배경의존성 및 부정확성을 보완한다. 다중 차영상 기법 및 비트단위의 AND 연산으로 수행되며, 이 과정으로 배경프레임을 이용한 방식의 정확성과 이전프레임을 이용한 방식의 환경적응력을 융합하며 노이즈의 발생을 감소시킨다. 또한 제안하는 기법의 성능은 CASIA의 Gait 데이터베이스 샘플을 이용해 각 기법에 대한 성능평가로 증명한다.

An optical fiber-based beam width measurement technique is presented. The proposed system can be applied to the optical fiber industry in applications such as lensed fiber, optical fiber based laser beam source, and fiber optic sensor. The measurement system is composed of optical fiber, which is used as a transceiver, and a single grating panel which consists of a multi-reflection area with an even non-reflection area. The grating panel is used to vary the reflected light. When the widths of the reflection area and non-reflection area are larger than the optical beam width, the reflected light is varied at the interface between the reflection area and the non-reflection area by the movement of the grating panel. Experiments were conducted in order to verify the feasibility of the proposed technique. Multi-mode fiber combined with a collimator was selected as an emitter and a receiver, and the beam width measurement system was contrived. Subsequently, the proposed method and the system were verified by comparing the experimental results with the results of the conventional charge-coupled device technique.

A depth measurement system to recognize 3D shape of objects using single camera, line laser and a rotating mirror has been investigated. The camera and the light source are fixed, facing the rotating mirror. The laser light is reflected by the mirror and projected to the scene objects whose locations are to be determined. The camera detects the laser light location on object surfaces through the same mirror. The scan over the area to be measured is done by mirror rotation. The Segmentation process of object recognition is performed using the depth data of restored 3D data. The Object recognition domain can be reduced by separating area of interest objects from complex background.

In the process of lithography using ultra violet light sources for semiconductor devices, most of defects are made by sub-micrometer pollutants generated at photochemical reactions. We proposed and developed a novel vibration-insensitive on-axis interferometer with a sub-micrometer lateral resolution by using the interference between two beams: one scattered from defects and the other reflected from a reference area without defects. The proposed system was successfully demonstrated to detect a small Al defect of 0.5 ${\mu}m$ diameter within the inspection time of less than 30 minutes over the area of the photo-mask which is 6 inch by 6 inch square.

Point contact film thickness in elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is analyzed by image processing method for the images from an optical interferometer with monochromatic incident light. Interference between the reflected lights both on half mirror Cr coating of glass disk and on super finished ball makes circular fringes depending on the contact conditions such as sliding velocity, applied load, viscosity-pressure characteristics and viscosity of lubricant under ambient pressure. In this situation the film thickness is regarded as the difference of optical paths between those reflected lights, which make dark and bright fringes with monochromatic incident light. The film thickness is computed by numbering the dark and bright fringe orders and the intensity (gray scale image) in each fringe regime is mapped to the corresponding film thickness. In this work, we developed a measuring technique for EHL film thickness by dividing the image patterns into two typical types under the condition of monochromatic incident light. During the image processing, the captured image is converted into digitally formatted data over the contact area without any loss of the image information of interferogram and it is also interpreted with consistency regardless of the observer's experimental experience. It is expected that the developed image processing method will provide a valuable basis to develop the image processing technique for color fringes, which is generally used for the measurement of relatively thin films in higher resolution.

At present, an important research area is the search for materials that are compatible with CMOS technology and achieve a satisfactory response rate and modulation efficiency. A strong local field of graphene surface plasmon polariton (SPP) can increase the interaction between light and graphene, reduce device size, and facilitate the integration of materials with CMOS. In this study, we design a new modulator of SPP-based cycle branch graphene waveguide. The structure comprises a primary waveguide of graphene-$LiNbO_3$-graphene, and a secondary cycle branch waveguide is etched on the surface of $LiNbO_3$. Part of the incident light in the primary waveguide enters the secondary waveguide, thus leading to a phase difference with the primary waveguide as reflected at the end of the branch and interaction coupling to enhance output light intensity. Through feature analysis, we discover that the area of the secondary waveguide shows significant localized fields and SPPs. Moreover, the cycle branch graphene waveguide can realize gain compensation, reduce transmission loss, and increase transmission distance. Numerical simulations show that the minimum effective mode field area is about $0.0130{\lambda}^2$, the gain coefficient is about $700cm^{-1}$, and the quality factor can reach 150. The structure can realize the mode field limits of deep subwavelength and achieve a good comprehensive performance.

In the remote sensing researches, the reflected bright source such as snow, cloud have effects on the image quality of wanted signal. Even though those signal from bright source are adjusted in corresponding pixel level with atmospheric correction algorithm or radiometric correction, those can be problem to the nearby signal as one of the stray light source. Especially, in the step and stare observational method which makes one mosaic image with several snap shots, one of target area can affect next to the other snap shot each other. Presented in this paper focused on the stray light analysis from unwanted reflected bright source for geostationary ocean color sensor. The stray light effect for total 16 slot images each other were performed according to 8 band filters. For the realistic simulation, we constructed system modeling with integrated ray tracing technique which realizes the same space time in the remote sensing observation among the Sun, the Earth, and the satellite. Computed stray light effect in the results of paper demonstrates the distinguishable radiance value at the specific time and space.
