Perspective dynamical systems arise in machine vision problems, in which only perspective observation is available. This paper considers the state estimation problem for a rigid body moving in three dimensional spaces using the image data obtained by a CCD camera or some other means. Because the motion of the rigid body and the observed data are generally corrupted by noises, it is necessary to seek a state estimation method to reduce the influence of the noises. In this paper, by means of computer simulations for a simple example, we examine the sensitivity to the noises of the nonlinear observer developed in the recent paper ([1] R. Abdursul, H. Inaba and B. Ghosh, Nonlinear observers for perspective time-invariant linear systems, Automatica, vol. 40, Issue 3, pp. 481-490, 2004) and the effectiveness of the Extended Kalman Filter.

An experimental method for measuring side-necking deformation near a crack-tip is described. It is based on Stereoscopic Digital Speckle Photography and Digital Image Correlation, and it is simple and robust to mechanical vibration inherent to a hydraulic material test system. The validity and accuracy are evaluated through a calibration fur rigid body translation. A case study has been performed for a CT specimen made of a ductile steel and the three dimensional profiles of the side-necked region are presented as the load increases. Also, the details of the procedure and the surface treatment are discussed.

This study aims at detecting the three dimensional gripping points for the transplanting robot system to grip in the process of developing transplanting robot system, which is one of the automation systems for transplanting tissue culture. The stereo vision system equipped with two cameras has been used to detect the gripping points of the plant stem. The method for matching the plants of the image information which came from two cameras was to measure the total numbers of pixels, leaves, and the heights of the plants. The gripping points were detected near the roots after extracting the stem parts by the standard deviation of the X axis according to the Y axis. The performance test of the developed program showed that the detecting errors of the gripping points were 0∼1mm for X axis and 1∼2mm for Y & Z axis. The mean running time of the program was about 3 seconds.

The vision processing system for mobile robots requires real time processing and reliability for the purpose of safe navigation. But, general types of vision systems are not appropriate owing to the correspondence problem which correlates the points out of two images. To determine the obstacle area, we use correspondences of line segments between two perspective images sequentially acquired by camera. To simplify the correspondence, the matching of line segments are performed in the navigation space, based on the assumption that mobile robot should be navigated in the flat surface and the motion of mobile robot between two frames should be approximately known.

Information that is acquired by adhered sensors on a body has been commonly used for the three-dimensional real-time motion capture algorithm. This paper describes realtime motion capture algorithm using computer vision. In a real-time image sequence, human body silhouette is extracted use a background subtraction between background image and the reference image. Then a human standing posture whether forward or backward is estimated by extraction of skin region in the silhoutte. After then, the principal axis is calculated in the torso and the face region is estimated on the principal axis. Feature points, which are essential condition to track the human gesture, are obtained ...

Computer vision technology can be used to interpret the images captured by web cameras installed on construction sites to automatically quantify the results. This information can be used for quality control, productivity measurement and to direct construction. Steel frame construction is particularly well suited for automatic monitoring as all structural members can be viewed from a small number of camera locations, and three-dimensional computer models of steel structures are frequently available in a standard electronic format. A system is being developed that interprets the 3-D model and directs a camera to look for individual members as regular intervals to determine when each is in place and report the results. Results from a simple lab-scale system are presented along with preliminary full-scale development.

This paper examines how APEC has transformed itself into an international forum for the vision of regional integration. It aims to quantify the documentation produced by the international organization and provide quantifiable evidence that aligns with prior knowledge rather than relying solely on intuition. For this purpose, I use various text mining techniques to extract multi-dimensional features from the text of APEC Leaders' Declarations from 1993 to 2023. In terms of interest and expectations for APEC as a forum, it is found that members have experienced two major peaks and troughs over the last three decades. It is found that the change point coincides with the Asian financial crisis of 1997 and the tensions between the United States and China since 2017. To explore more various aspects of economic integration in the Asia-Pacific region, this study also considers how consistently APEC has been an international forum for addressing issues, which members are active, and how members have clustered based on their views of APEC.

Pose estimation is an important operation for many vision tasks. This paper presents a method of estimating the camera pose, using a known landmark for the purpose of autonomous vertical takeoff and landing(VTOL) unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) landing. The proposed method uses a distinctive methodology to solve the pose estimation problem. We propose to combine extrinsic parameters from known and unknown 3-D(three-dimensional) feature points, and inertial estimation of camera 6-DOF(Degree Of Freedom) into one linear inhomogeneous equation. This allows us to use singular value decomposition(SVD) to neatly solve the given optimization problem. We present experimental results that demonstrate the ability of the proposed method to estimate camera 6DOF with the ease of implementation.

This paper describes an intelligent mirror adjustment system that rotates a pair of side mirrors and the room mirror of a car to the optimal position for a driver by using the location of the driver's pupils. A stereo vision system measures the three-dimensional coordinates of a pair of pupils by analyzing the input images of stereo B/W CCD cameras mounted on the instrument panel. This system determines the position angle of each mirror on the basis of information about the location of the pupils and rotates each mirror to the appropriate position by mirror actuators. The vision system can detect the driver's pupils regardless of whether it is daytime or nighttime by virtue of an infrared light source. Information about the pair of nostrils is used to improve the correctness of pupil detection. This system can adjust side mirrors and the room mirror automatically and rapidly by a simple interface regardless of driver replacement or driver's posture. Experiment has shown this to be a new mirror adjustment system that can make up for the weak points of previous mirror adjustment systems.
