  • Shadow detection and elimination is a critical issue in vision-based system to improve the detection performance of moving objects. However, traditional algorithms are useless at night time because they used the chromaticity and brightness information from the color image sequence. To obtain the high detection performance, we can use the thermal camera and there are shadows by the heat not the light. We proposed a novel algorithm to detect and eliminate the shadows using the thermal intensity and the locality property. By combining two results of the intensity-based and locality-based, we can detect the shadows by the heat and improve the detection performance of moving object.

  • A Taguchi methodology study of the plasma spraying thermal barrier coating (TBC) layer is presented. The experiment parameters were designed by a L8-style orthogonal arrays approach. A Taguchi analysis was conduc-ted through the results of the coating properties which were affected by plasma spraying parameters. Zirconia (partially stbilized with ytrria: PSZ) was sprayed on TiAl intermetallic compound substrates, The coating layer was characterized by thickness microstructure and porosity using SEM and Image analyzer. The coating quali-ties are discussed with respect to thermal barrier effect thermal cycling test6 and adhesion strength test. An optimum condition of plasma spraying process which are derived from the Taguchi analysis could be found for high quality TBC.

  • The effect of rapid thermal anneal (RTA) has been investigated on the properties of an FeMn exchange-biased magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) using magnetoresistance and I-V measurements and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) in an as-grown MTJ is found to be ∼27%, while the TMR in MTJs annealed by RTA increases with annealing temperature up to 300$\^{C}$, reaching ∼46%. A TEM image reveals a structural change in the interface of A1$_2$O$_3$layer for the MTJ annealed by RTA at 300$\^{C}$. The oxide barrier parameters are found to vary abruptly with annealing time within a few ten seconds. Our results demonstrate that the present RTA enhances the magnetoresistive properties of MTJs.

  • In this paper, we propose an efficient design method for a thermal camera with continuous zoom based on the research and manufacturing experience of the thermal camera. In addition, it is divided into system design method, optical design method, mechanical design method, and electronic design method. First, we propose an effective NUC compensation method and a lens-specific sensitivity design method in terms of system. Second, we propose a zoom trajectory design method considering the temperature effect on the optical aspect. Third, it suggests the minimization of optical axis shaking between magnification conversion in terms of mechanism. Finally, we propose a lens-specific temperature compensation method and a speed conversion algorithm according to the zoom interval as an electronic aspect.

  • Surge protective devices can be divided into three categories based on the circuit assembly: a parallel circuit type that considers the surge current amount within the device, a series circuit type that considers the voltage and single circuit type that uses a single element. However, when assembling SPDs, there are many things including function and safety to be taken into consideration because they are directly related to the performance and safety of the device. In this paper, we executed an experimental comparative study of performance and thermal stability of each SPD type using lightning surge generator and thermal image camera.

  • Temperature distribution measured to estimate condition of an electrical apparatus is an absolute reference for the apparatus conditions and the difference between the reference temperature and the current one. Because a passive thermography without the external thermal stimulation shows the difference in surface temperature between the object and back ground, the results can apply only to the estimation or the monitoring for the condition of terminal loose and the overload pertaining to the rise in temperature. However, a thermal flow in the active thermography is differently generated by the structure and condition of the surface and subsurface. This paper presents the nondestructive testing using the behavior and deals with the results by heat injection and cooling to the apparatus. The buried discontinuity of subsurface could be detected by these techniques.

  • 전력사용량이 산업 발전과 더불어 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있으며, 한정된 공간 내에서 대용량의 전력설비를 설치하기 위해 폐쇄형 배전반이 운영되고 있다. 통계에 의하면, 고압 이상 전기설비 검사 결과 절연내력이 불합격인 경우가 다수 발생하고 있다. 특히 수배전반의 경우 부하설비 또는 외부의 영향을 확인할 수 있는 장치 및 보호설비가 설치되어 있으나 자체 안전장치가 마련되어 있지 않아 자체 사고를 신속히 검출하고 판단할 수 있는 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 열 감지 센서에 고속 디지털 신호 처리를 2차원 보간법으로 해상도를 올려서 사용하는 기술을 이용하여 아크플래시에 의해 발생되는 열 특성을 검출할 수 있는 장치 개발을 위한 기초 특성 조사를 실시하였다.

  • This study aimed to develop an advanced anomaly-detection system tailored for solar power distribution panels using thermal imaging cameras to ensure operational stability. It addresses the imperative shift toward digitalized safety management in electrical facilities, transcending the limitations of conventional empirical methodologies. Our proposed system leverages a faster R-CNN-based artificial intelligence model optimized through meticulous hyperparameter tuning to efficiently detect anomalies in distribution panels. Through comprehensive experimentation, we validated the efficacy of the system in accurately identifying anomalies, thereby propelling safety protocols forward during the fourth industrial revolution. This study signifies a significant stride toward fortifying the integrity and resilience of solar power distribution systems, which is pivotal for adapting to emerging technological paradigms and evolving safety standards in the energy sector. These findings offer valuable insights for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of safety management practices and fostering a safer and more sustainable energy landscape.

  • Focal enhancement typically suggests local tumor progression (LTP) after renal cell carcinoma is percutaneously ablated. However, evaluating findings that are false positive or negative of LTP is less familiar to radiologists who have little experience with renal ablation. Various imaging features are encountered during and after thermal ablation. Ablation procedures and previous follow-up imaging should be reviewed before determining if there is LTP. Previous studies have focused on detecting the presence or absence of focal enhancement within the ablation zone. Therefore, various diagnostic pitfalls can be experienced using computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging examinations. This review aimed to assess how to read images during or after ablation procedures, recognize imaging features of LTP and determine factors that influence LTP.
