In this paper, an intelligent security camera over internet is proposed. Among ISC methods, watersheds based methods produce a good performance in segmentation accuracy. But traditional watershed transform has been suffered from over-segmentation due to small local minima included in gradient image that is input to the watershed transform. And a zone face candidates of detection using skin-color model. last step, face to check at face of candidate location using SVM method. It is extract of wavelet transform coefficient to the zone face candidated. Therefore, it is likely that it is applicable to read world problem, such as object tracking, surveillance, and human computer interface application etc.

The purpose of this research is design of Vision Box which can capture an image which inputs through the camera and understand movement of object included in captured image. In design, we tried to satisfy user's requirements. We made Vision Box can analyze movement of object in image captured by camera without additional instruments. In addition, it is possible that communicate with PLC and operate Vision Box by remote control. We could verify the Vision Box capability by using it to automobile engine pattern analysis. We expect the Vision Box will be used various industrial fields.

본 논문에서는 엣지 컴퓨팅을 무인 마켓에 도입하여 엣지 컴퓨팅의 효율성을 확인하고, 로컬 네트워크의 효율적인 대역폭 할당을 위한 두 가지 방법을 제안한다. 무인 마켓과 같이 엄청난 양의 데이터를 필요로 하고 만들어내는 서비스에서는 데이터들을 클라우드로 전송하여 소비자가 불편함을 느끼지 못하도록 빠르게 처리하는 것은 불가능에 가깝다. 그래서 우리는 Amazon Go 를 벤치마킹한 무인 마켓에 엣지 컴퓨팅을 도입하여 이를 구현한다. 그리고 구현한 시스템에서 엣지 컴퓨팅 외에 클라우드 컴퓨팅, 모바일 장치를 적용하여 처리할 때의 응답 시간을 분석하여 엣지 컴퓨팅의 높은 성능을 확인한다. 또한, 구현한 무인 마켓에서 데이터 전송의 효율성을 더욱 높이기 위해 카메라 단위와 매대 단위의 대역폭 할당 기법을 제안한다. 카메라 단위로는 모션 인식기술을 활용하여 움직임이 감지될 때만 각 이미지 프로세스에서 요구되는 고해상도로 송신하는 기법을 제안한다. 매대 단위로는 네트워크에서 수용 가능한 대역폭 임계치에 도달하지 못하게 하기 위해 매대 별 우선순위에 따른 대역폭 할당 스케줄링 기법을 제안한다. 그 결과로 평균 소모대역폭과 최대 소모대역폭을 비교하여 제안한 두 가지 기법이 기존의 방법에 비해 성능을 향상시키는 것을 보인다.

worker-centered safety management for hazardous areas in the plant is required. The causes of gas accidents in the past five years are closely related to the behavior of the operator, such as careless handling of the user, careless handling of the suppliers, and intentional, as well as equipment failure and accident of thought. In order to prevent such accidents, real-time monitoring of hazardous areas in the plant is required. However, when installing a camera in a work space for real-time monitoring, problems such as human rights abuse occur. In order to prevent this, an infrared camera with low resolution with low exposure of the operator is used. In real-time monitoring, image analysis is performed using CNN algorithm, not human, to prevent human rights violation.

고령 인구의 지속적인 증가로 인해 고령자의 안전과 관련된 문제는 주요한 관심사 중 하나로 부상하고 있다. 특히, 고령자들 사이에서 자주 발생하는 낙상 사고는 심각한 건강 문제를 일으킬 수 있으며, 이를 예방하고 대응하는 것은 고령 인구의 삶의 질을 향상하는 데 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구는 8대의 카메라로 촬영된 영상과 센서 데이터를 통합한 낙상 감지 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 MediaPipe를 활용하여 Skeleton Keypoint를 추출하는 이미지 인식 기법과 센서 데이터에서 얻은 특징을 활용하는 센서 기반 기술을 결합하여 낙상 사고의 발생 및 방향을 효과적으로 감지할 수 있다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 향후 고령자들의 생활 안전성과 의료 시스템의 효율성을 높이는 데 이바지할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Recently, many human-friendly communication methods have been studied for human-machine interface(HMI) without using any physical devices. One of them is the vision-based gesture recognition that this paper deals with. In this paper, we define some gestures for interaction with objects in a predefined virtual world, and propose an efficient method to recognize them. For preprocessing, we detect and track the both hands, and extract their silhouettes from the low-resolution hand images captured by a webcam. We modeled skin color by two Gaussian distributions in RGB color space and use blob-matching method to detect and track the hands. Applying the foodfill algorithm we extracted hand silhouettes and recognize the hand shapes of Thumb-Up, Palm and Cross by detecting and analyzing their modes. Then, with analyzing the context of hand movement, we recognized five predefined one-hand or both-hand gestures. Assuming that one main user shows up for accurate hand detection, the proposed gesture recognition method has been proved its efficiency and accuracy in many real-time demos.

Recently many wearable computers have been developed. But they still have many user interface problems from both an input and output perspective. This paper presents a wearable user interface based on EOG(electrooculogram) sensing circuit and marker recognition. In the proposed user interface, the EOG sensor circuit which tracks the movement of eyes by sensing the potential difference across the eye is used as a pointing device. Objects to manipulate are represented human readable markers. And the marker recognition system detects and recognize markers from the camera input image. When a marker is recognized, the corresponding property window and method window are displayed to the head mounted display. Users manipulate the object by selecting a property or a method item from the window. By using the EOG sensor circuit and the marker recognition system, we can manipulate an object with only eye movement in the wearable computing environment.

In this paper, we propose a correction method using phoneme unit segmentation to solve misrecognition of Korean Texts in signboard images using weighted Disassemble Levenshtein Distance. The proposed method calculates distances of recognized texts which are segmented into phoneme units and detects the best matched texts from signboard text database. For verifying the efficiency of the proposed method, a database dictionary is built using 1.3 million words of nationwide signboard through removing duplicated words. We compared the proposed method to Levenshtein Distance and Disassemble Levenshtein Distance which are common representative text string comparison algorithms. As a result, the proposed method based on weighted Disassemble Levenshtein Distance represents an improvement in recognition rates 29.85% and 6% on average compared to that of conventional methods, respectively.

In this paper, we propose a method that gives motion command to a mobile robot to recognize human being's hand gesture. Former way of the robot-controlling system with the movement of hand used several kinds of pre-arranged gesture, therefore the ordering motion was unnatural. Also it forced people to study the pre-arranged gesture, making it more inconvenient. To solve this problem, there are many researches going on trying to figure out another way to make the machine to recognize the movement of the hand. In this paper, we used third-dimensional camera to obtain the color and depth data, which can be used to search the human hand and recognize its movement based on it. We used HMM method to make the proposed system to perceive the movement, then the observed data transfers to the robot making it to move at the direction where we want it to be.

In the field of maintenance of power transmission lines, drones have been used for their patrol and inspection by KEPCO since 2017. This drone technology was originally developed by KEPCO Research Institute, and now workers from four regional offices of KEPCO have directly applied this technology to the drone patrol and inspection tasks. In the drone inspection system, a drone with an optical zooming camera and a thermal camera can fly automatically along the transmission lines by the ground control system developed by KEPCO Research Institute, but its camera gimbal has been remotely controlled by a field worker. Especially the drone patrol and inspection has been mainly applied for the transmission lines in the inaccessible areas such as regions with river-crossings, sea-crossings and mountains. There are often communication disruptions between the drone and its remote controller in such extreme fields of mountain areas with many barriers. This problem may cause the camera gimbal be out of control, even though the inspection drone flies along the flight path well. In addition, interference with the reception of real-time transmitted videos makes the field worker unable to operate it. To solve these problems, we have developed the auto-tracking camera gimbal system with deep learning method. The camera gimbal can track the transmission line automatically, even when the transmitted video on a remote controller is intermittently unavailable. To show the effectiveness of our camera gimbal system, its field test results will be presented in this paper.
