In this paper, we designed a coaxial dual camera incorporating two optical systems-one for the visible rays and the other for far-infrared ones-with the aim of capturing images in both wavelength ranges. The far-infrared system, which uses an uncooled detector, has a sensor array of 640×480 pixels. The visible ray system has 1,945×1,097 pixels. The coaxial dual optical system was designed using a hot mirror beam splitter to minimize heat transfer caused by infrared rays in the visible ray optical system. The optimization process revealed that the final version of the dual camera system reached more than 90% of the fusion performance between two separate images from dual systems. Multiple rigorous testing processes confirmed that the coaxial dual camera we designed demonstrates meaningful design efficiency and improved image conformity degree compared to existing dual cameras.

Schwarzschild-Chang 망원경은 두 개의 반사경을 사용한 비축 망원경이다. 이 망원경에 사용된 비축 광학 이론을 이용하면 선형 비점수차를 완전히 제거할 수 있으며 3차 이상의 고차수차들도 동축 광학계와 동일한 정도로 최소화 시킬 수 있다. 이 망원경 디자인을 응용하면 단일 광학계 망원경을 제작할 수 있을뿐만 아니라 2개의 망원경 시스템을 조합할 경우 색수차나 중앙차폐 없이 대형 망원경의 focal reducer 또는 분광기의 내부 광학 장치로도 사용할 수 있다. 본 연구팀은 현재 구경 50 mm, 유효초점거리 100 mm, 시야각 $8{\times}8^{\circ}$ 인 Schwarzschild-Chang 망원경 시험 모델을 완성했다. 본 발표에서는 적외선 관측을 직접 할 수 있는 Schwarzschild-Chang 망원경의 개발 진행과정에 대하여 설명한다.

One of the most common applications of machine vision is quality inspections in automated production. In this study, a welding inspection system that is controlled by a PC and a PLC equipped with a multi-camera setup was developed. The system was designed to measure the primary dimensions, such as the length and width of the welding areas. The TCP/IP protocols and multi-threading techniques were used for parallel control of the optical components and physical distribution. A coaxial light was used to maintain uniform lighting conditions and enhance the image quality of the weld areas. The core image processing system was established through a combination of various algorithms from the OpenCV library. The proposed vision inspection system was fully validated for an actual weld production line and was shown to satisfy the functional and performance requirements.
