Perspective dynamical systems arise in machine vision, in which only perspective observation is available, and the essential problem is to estimate the state and /or unknown parameters for a moving rigid body based on the observed information. This paper proposes and studies a Luenberger-type observer for perspective tim e-varying linear systems. In particular, assuming a given perspective time-varying linear system to be Lyapunov stable and to satisfy some sort of observability condition, it is shown that the estimation error converges exponentially to zero. Finally, a simple numerical exam pie is presented to illustrate the result obtained.

In this paper, the authors introduce the concepts of neural computer systems which have been studied over 25 years in other countries. And also we illustrate the models of neural networks suggested by researchers. Our fundamental hypothesis is that these models are applicable to the construction of artificial neural systems including neural computers. Therefore we assume that neural computer systems are abstract computer systems based on the computational properties of human brains and particularly well suited for problems in vision and language understanding.

A current design trend of a vending machine is pursuing easy manufacturing and large capacity of holding cans. Therefore this study aims to ergonomically redesign vending machine and to analyze the motion of awkward posture to take out cans. Using Vision 3000 system, after investigating which motion can affect users, a new ergonomically designed vending machine, which was based on anthropometric data and guideline for control panel and exit of cans. New design shows a significantly improved usability and less stress. With new ergonomically designed vending machine at figure 3 can give a benefit for both users and manufactures.

This paper presents the design procedure for soccer-playing rovots based on the centralized approach. Using a fast vision system, we obtain the configuration of each robot and then the host computer computes the desired motion and commands each robot directly via RF communication. The robot soccer game has a lot of problems such as obstacle avoidance, coordination between robots, dribbling the ball, and so on. To implement such motions, we think that the centralized approach seems to be more powerful than the distributed approach. We describe the technical tips for developing the robots in detail here and explain our strategy for getting the scores.

This paper addresses a new algorithm for a stereo visual odometry to measure the ego-motion of a vehicle. The new algorithm introduces an inlier grouping method based on Delaunay triangulation and vanishing point computation. Most visual odometry algorithms rely on RANSAC in choosing inliers. Those algorithms fluctuate largely in processing time between images and have different accuracy depending on the iteration number and the level of outliers. On the other hand, the new approach reduces the fluctuation in the processing time while providing accuracy corresponding to the RANSAC-based approaches.

Object recognition in the field of robotics generally has depended on a computer vision system. Recently, RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) has been suggested as technology that supports object recognition. This paper, introduces the advanced RFID-based recognition using a novel tag which is named a 3D tag. The 3D tag was designed to facilitate object recognition. The proposed RFID system not only detects the existence of an object, but also estimates the orientation and position of the object. These characteristics allow the robot to reduce considerably its dependence on other sensors for object recognition. In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of the 3D tag-based RFID system. In addition, the estimation methods of position and orientation using the system are discussed.

It is necessary to improve the exactness and adaptation of the working environment for the intelligent robot system. The vision sensor have been studied for a long time at this points. However, it has many processes and difficulties for the real usages. This paper proposes a visual servoing in the virtual environment to support OLP(Off-Line-Programming) path compensation and supplement the problem of complexity of the old kinematical calibration. Initial robot path could be compensated by pixel differences between real and virtual image. This method removes the varies calibrations and 3D reconstruction process in real working space. To show the validity of the proposed approach, virtual space servoing with stereo camera is carried out with WTK and openGL library for a KUKA-6R manipulator and updated real robot path.

In this paper, we propose the estimation method for the image affine information for computer vision. The first estimation method is given based on the XYS image normalization and the second estimation method is based on the image normalization by Pei and Lin. The XYS normalization method turns out to have better performance than the method by Pei and Lin. In addition, we show that rotation and aspect ratio information can be obtained using the central moments of both the original image and the sensed image. Finally, we propose the modified version of the normalization method so that we may control the size of the image.

This paper presents an algorithm capable of detecting leading vehicles using a forward-looking camera. In fact, the accurate measurements of the contact locations of vehicles with road surface are prerequisites for the intelligent vehicle technologies based on a monocular vision. Relying on multistage processing of relevant edge features to the hypothesis generation of a vehicle, the proposed algorithm creates candidate positions being the left and right boundaries of vehicles, and searches for pairs to be vehicle boundaries from the potential positions by evaluating horizontal symmetry. The proposed algorithm is proven to be successful by experiments performed on images acquired by a moving vehicle.

1. Introduction Pose estimation of a three dimensional object has been studied in robot vision area, and it is needed in a number of industrial applications such as process monitoring and control, assembly and PCB inspection. In this research, we propose a new pose estimation method based on principal axes analysis. Here, it is assumed that the locations of x-ray source and the image plane are predetermined and the object geometry is known. To this end, we define a dispersion matrix of an object, which is a discrete form of inertia matrix of the object. It can be determined here from a set of x-ray images, at least three images are required. Then, the pose information is obtained fro...
