Recently, the ground-based laser profiler is used for acquisition of 3D spatial information of a rchaeological objects. However, it is very difficult to measure complicated objects, because of a relatively low-resolution. On the other hand, texture mapping can be a solution to complement the low resolution, and to generate 3D model with higher fidelity. But, a huge cost is required for the construction of textured 3D model, because huge labor is demanded, and the work depends on editor's experiences and skills . Moreover, the accuracy of data would be lost during the editing works. In this research, using the laser profiler and a non-calibrated digital camera, a method is proposed for the automatic generation of 3D model by integrating these data. At first, region segmentation is applied to laser range data to extract geometric features of an object in the laser range data. Various information such as normal vectors of planes, distances from a sensor and a sun-direction are used in this processing. Next, an image segmentation is also applied to the digital camera images, which include the same object. Then, geometrical relations are determined by corresponding the features extracted in the laser range data and digital camera’ images. By projecting digital camera image onto the surface data reconstructed from laser range image, the 3D texture model was generated automatically.

The sensor system to measure the distance precisely from the center of the sensor system to the obstacle is needed to recognize the surrounding environments, and the sensor system is to be calibrated thoroughly to get the range information exactly. This study covers the calibration of the active range sensor which consists of camera and laser slit emitting device, and provides the equations to get the 3D range data. This can be possible by obtaining the extrinsic parameters of laser slit emitting device through image processing the slits measured during the constant distance intervals and the intrinsic parameters from the calibration of camera. The 3D range data equation derived from the simple geometric assumptions is proved to be applicable to the general cases using the calibration parameters. Also the exact 3D range data were obtained to the object from the real experiment.

The fast charging photoflash capacitor charger with wide range current limiter is presented. By using proposed control logic block and wide range current limiter, the photoflash capacitor charger can reduce charging time and control life of battery for user convenience. The proposed photoflash capacitor charger has 3s charging time at 3.3V battery voltage, 1.2A current limit condition. It is well-suited for portable device application like digital camera, digital video camera, and mobile phone with camera.

This study is on the effective methods for non metric camera calibration for its use in accurate close range photogrammetric surveying. We tested four estimation methods used for calculating interior orientation parameters and two methods for building calibration field, one is using targets which have three dimensional coordinates and the other is using two dimensional grid targets. By analysing test results effective and accurate calibration methods were suggested.

In this paper, we propose a 3-D range finding method for situation that stereo camera has small translational motion. Binocular stereo generally tends to produce stereo correspondence errors and needs huge amount of computation. The former drawback is because the additional constraints to regularize the correspondence problem are not always true for every scene. The latter drawback is because they use either correlation or optimization to find correct disparity. We present a method which overcomes these drawbacks by moving the stereo camera actively. The method utilized a motion parallax acquired by monocular motion stereo to restrict the search range of binocular disparity. Using only the uniqueness of disparity makes it possible to find reliable binocular disparity. Experimental results with real scene are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.

This paper demonstrates the performance of industrial precise measurement using the digital close-range photograrmmetric system based on a off-the-shelf CCTV-type CCD camera. The system was constructed with a CCD camera and a PC with a frame grabber, coupled with digital image mensuration and self-calibrating bundle adjustment techniques. An artificial fish reef with cubic shape was taken as an object for the application test of the system and the digital images were acquired on multi-station convergent network around the object. The geometric calibration of the CCD camera and the phototriangulation of the entire surface of the object was carried out simultaneously by means of self-calibrating bundle adjustment technique. Also the system comprising a high resolution still-video camera Kodak DCS, which high accuracy potential has been already established, were employed in similar network condition. Then the results from two different camera systems were compared in the accuracies of phototriangulation.

In this paper, we propose the improvement method of the camera images regardless of exposure environments. By using a double-exposure method, we could improve camera images with clear recognition. We applied the improvement method on the mobile phone. For the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, we compared simulated camera images with the proposed method to conventional images by using auto-exposure image. Experimental results are also shown in this paper.

In close-range photogrammetry, to employ non-metric camera especially for the purpose of precise measurement, systematic errors must, first of all, be corrected as they have a great influence on accuracies of results. For it, fiducial marks was built in non-metric camera and the factors such as PPS, PPA, EFL, CFL, and radial lens distortion coefficients for each quadrant were calibrated through collimator test. Also, the coefficients of both radial and tangential lens distortion were calibrated from analytical plumb line method and therefore main systematic errors could be effectively corrected. Using the calibrated non-metric camera, close-range photogrammetry could be successfully accomplished and accuracies could be improved sharply.

In this study, the theoretical resolution analysis of an active vision system using laser range finder is performed for surrounding recognition and 3D data acquisition in unknown environment. In the result, the resolution of range data in laser range finder is depend on the distance between lens center of CCD camera and light emitter, view angle, beam angle, and parameters of CCD camera. The theoretical resolutions of the laser range finders of various types which are based on parameters effected resolution are calculated and experimental results are obtained in real system.
