The techniques of 3d image processing have broadly used in the areas including movies, games, performances, exhibitions. In addition, increasing demands for practical uses have gradually extended to the areas of architecture, medicine, nuclear power plant. However, dominant techniques for 3d image processing seem to depend on multi-camera in which two stereo images are merged into one image. Also the pipeline has limitations to provide real-time 3d viewer in ubiquitous computing. It is not able to be applicable onto most general screens as well. In addition, the techniques can be utilized for the real-time 3d game play without a particular monitor or convertor. Hence, the research presented here is to aim at developing an efficient real-time 3d viewer using only mono camera which do not need post processing for editing as well.

This paper proposes a real-time foreground segmentation and background substitution method for protecting the privacy on visual communication. Previous works on this topic have some problems with the color and shape of foreground and the capture device such as stereo camera. we provide a solution which can segment the foreground in real-time using fixed mono camera. For improving the performance of a foreground extraction, we propose the Temporal Foreground Probability Model (TFPM) by modeling temporal information of a video. Also we provide an boundary processing method for natural and smooth synthesizing that using alpha matte and simple post-processing method.

In this study, image-based flock monitoring and density evaluation were conducted for broiler chicks welfare. Image data were captured by using a mono camera and region of broiler chicks in the image was detected using converting to HSV color model, thresholding, and clustering with filtering. The results show that region detection was performed with 5% relative error and 0.81 IoU on average. The detected region was corrected to the actual region by projection into ground using coordinate transformation between camera and real-world. The flock density of broiler chicks was estimated using the corrected actual region, and it was observed with an average of 80%. The developed algorithm can be applied to the broiler chicks house through enhancing accuracy of region detection and low-cost system configuration.

In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of big data-based fine dust anomaly detection machine learning system. The proposed is system that classifies the fine dust air quality index through meteorological information composed of fine dust and big data. This system classifies fine dust through the design of an anomaly detection algorithm according to the outliers for each air quality index classification categories based on machine learning. Depth data of the image collected from the camera collects images according to the level of fine dust, and then creates a fine dust visibility mask. And, with a learning-based fingerprinting technique through a mono depth estimation algorithm, the fine dust level is derived by inferring the visibility distance of fine dust collected from the monoscope camera. For experimentation and analysis of this method, after creating learning data by matching the fine dust level data and CCTV image data by region and time, a model is created and tested in a real environment.

A recent study to determine the fall is focused on analyzing fall motions using a recurrent neural network (RNN), and uses a deep learning approach to get good results for detecting human poses in 2D from a mono color image. In this paper, we investigated the improved detection method to estimate the position of the head and shoulder key points and the acceleration of position change using the skeletal key points information extracted using PoseNet from the image obtained from the 2D RGB low-cost camera, and to increase the accuracy of the fall judgment. In particular, we propose a fall detection method based on the characteristics of post-fall posture in the fall motion analysis method and on the velocity of human body skeleton key points change as well as the ratio change of body bounding box's width and height. The public data set was used to extract human skeletal features and to train deep learning, GRU, and as a result of an experiment to find a feature extraction method that can achieve high classification accuracy, the proposed method showed a 99.8% success rate in detecting falls more effectively than the conventional primitive skeletal data use method.

There are active researches on automated guided vehicles(AGV) generally used in flexible manufacturing system(FMS) or automated warehouse systems(AWS). Because existing AGV uses magnetic tapes, electric wire, RF or laser as guidelines, its installation and modification require a lot of money and time. The present study implemented AGV that detects paths marked with 50mm Yellow tape using a mono-color CCD camera. Because it uses color tape, it is easy and inexpensive to install and change lines. This study presented the structure of the developed AGV, the image Processing technique for detecting guidelines by ing the characteristics of color, and the result of operating AGV.

A method to recognize unpaved road region using a 3D depth measurement system is proposed for mobile robots. For autonomous maneuvering of mobile robots, recognition of obstacles or recognition of road region is the essential task. In this paper, the 3D depth measurement system which is composed of a rotating mirror, a line laser and mono-camera is employed to detect depth, where the laser light is reflected by the mirror and projected to the scene objects whose locations are to be determined. The obtained depth information is converted into an image. Such depth images of the road region represent even and plane while that of off-road region is irregular or textured. Therefore, the problem falls into a texture identification problem. Road region is detected employing a simple spatial differentiation technique to detect the plain textured area. Identification results of the diverse situation of Nonlinear trail are included in this paper.

In this thesis, a new superimposition scheme using a computer vision system was proposed with 7 pairs of skull and ante-mortem photographs, which were already identified through other tests and DNA fingerprints at the Korea National Institute of Scientific Investigation. At this computer vision system, an unidentified skull was caught by video-camcoder with the MPEG and a ante-mortem photograph was scanned by scanner. These two images were processed and superimposed using pixel processing. Recognition of the individual identification by anatomical references was performed on the two superimposed images. These results were as followings. 1. For the enhancement of skull and ante-mortem photographs, various image processing schemes, such as SMOOTH, SHARPEN, EMBOSS, MOSAIC, ENGRAVE, INVERT, NEON and COLOR TO MONO, were applied using 3*5 window processing. As an image processing result of these methods, the optimal techniques were NEON, INVERT and ENGRAVE for the edge detection of skull and ante-mortem photograph. 2. Using various superimposition image processing techniques (SRCOR, SRCAND, SRCINVERT, SRCERASE, DSTINVERT, MERGEPAINT) were compared for the enhancement of image recognition. 3. By means of the video camera, the skull image was inputed directly to a computer system : superimposing it on the ante-mortem photograph made the identification more precise and time-saving. As mentioned above, this image processing techniques for the superimposition of skull and ante-mortem photographs simply used the previous approach, In other wrods, taking skull photographs and developing it to the same size as the ante-mortem photographs. This system using various image processing techniques on computer screen, a more precise and time-saving superimposition technique could be able to be applied in the area of individual identification in forensic practice.

X-ray microscopy with synchrotron radiation(SR) might be a useful tool for novel x-ray imaging in the clinical and laboratory settings. Microscopically, it enables us to observe detailed structure of animal organs samples with a great magnification power and an excellent resolution. The phase contrast mechanisms in image by X-ray are described. The phase-contrast X-ray imaging with SR from in-vivo and in-vitro mouse tail, rat nerve and rat lung were obtained with an 8 KeV monochromatic beam. The visual image was magnified using 10x microscope objective lens and captured using an digital CCD camera. The results showed more structural details and high resolution images with SR imaging system than conventional X-ray radiography system. The SR imaging system may have a potential for imaging in biological researches, material applications and clinical radiography.

UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) have an INS(Inertial Navigation System) equipment and also have an electro-optical Equipment for mission. This paper proposes the vision based attitude estimation algorithm using Kalman Filter and Optical flow for UAV. Optical flow is acquired from the movie of camera which is equipped on UAV and UAV's attitude is measured from optical flow. In this paper, Kalman Filter has been used for the settlement of the low reliability and estimation of UAV's attitude. Algorithm verification was performed through experiments. The experiment has been used rate table and real flight video. Then, this paper shows the verification result of UAV's attitude estimation algorithm. When the rate table was tested, the error was in 2 degree and the tendency was similar with AHRS measurement states. However, on the experiment of real flight movie, maximum yaw error was 21 degree and Maximum pitch error was 7.8 degree.
