This study was one of a series of studies on application of machine vision and image processing to extract the geometrical features of plants and to analyze plant growth. Several algorithms were developed to measure morphological properties of plants and describing the growth development of in-situ lettuce(Lactuca sativa L.). Canopy, centroid, leaf density and fractal dimension of plant were measured from a top viewed binary image. It was capable of identifying plants by a thinning top viewed image. Overlapping the thinning side viewed image with a side viewed binary image of plant was very effective to auto-detect meaningful nodes associated with canopy components such as stem, branch, petiole and leaf. And, plant height, stem diameter, number and angle of branches, and internode length and so on were analyzed by using meaningful nodes extracted from overlapped side viewed images. Canopy, leaf density and fractal dimension showed high relation with fresh weight or growth pattern of in-situ lettuces. It was concluded that machine vision system and image processing techniques are very useful in extracting geometrical features and monitoring plant growth, although interactive methods, for some applications, were required.

Recently, The manufacturing companies are introducing the CAD/CAM systems to solve problems for the lack of experts, the higher cost of manufacturing and the difficulties of process. Knowledge engineering approach makes it possible to change a know-how of experts to computerized information effectivly. The proposal of this paper is the development of an interactive knowledge-based CAM system to disign and manufacture the mold with non-expert engineers used easily. This system is composed of two functional parts. One is the geometric modeler that used the technique of a feature modeling. The other is the expert system module that composed inference engine and databas which contains characteristics of materials and cutting tools setc.

Manufacturers of aircraft engines have introduced computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to operate and control computerized numerical control (CNC) machine tools. However, the generation of a CAM model is a time consuming and error-prone task since machining procedure and operational details are manually defined. For the automatic generation of a CAM model, feature recognition techniques have been widely studied. However, their recognition coverage is limited so that complex shapes such as a jet engine cannot be fully developed. This study presents a novel approach to quickly generate a CAM model from a CAD model using shape search techniques. Once an operator sets a machining operation as a reference operation, the same shapes as the shapes referenced by the operation are searched. The reference operation is copied to the positions of the searched shapes. The proposed method was verified through experiments with a jet engine compressor case.

나노입자는 벌크 재료와는 다른 광학적, 전기적, 촉매적 특징 때문에 최근 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 나노유체의 성질은 나노입자의 크기와 형상, 분산성등과 같은 여러 요인에 의해서 결정되어진다. 이러한 나노입자의 특징 때문에 여러 응용분야에서 활용되어지고 있다. 예를 들면, 일반 유체에 나노입자를 분산시키면, 열전도도와 대류열전달효과가 증대되어 진다. 이러한 나노유체의 제조법으로는 크게 두 가지로 분류되어 있다. 투스텝법은 환원법 혹은 기계적으로 제작한 나노입자를 일반 유체에 혼합시킨 후 분산을 시켜 제조하는 제조법이다. 원스텝법은 투스텝법과는 달리 한번에 나노유체를 제조하는 제조법이다. 일반 유체에서 나노유체를 제조함과 동시에 분산을 시켜서 제조한다. 최근, 유체내에서 나노유체를 제조함과 동시에 분산을 시켜 나노유체를 제조하는 새로운 기술인 유체 플라즈마법이 개발되었다. 하지만, 유체 플라즈마의 일반적인 거동과 해석이 명확하게 규명되지 않은 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 유체 플라즈마의 발생 메카니즘 규명을 위한 방전 시간, 전압, 단극 직류 전력, 극간거리에 따른 유체 플라즈마의 특징을 OES와 오실로스코프를 이용하여 측정하였다. 또한, 제조된 나노유체의 특징을 UV-vis nir spectropgotometer, HR-TEM, zeta-potential, EDS, ICP-OES, KD2 pro and lambda로 측정하였다. 유체 플라즈마를 각 조건에 따라 발생시켰고, 나노유체를 성공적으로 제조하였다. 유체 플라즈마의 주요 발생 원소는 산소와 수소이온으로 측정되었다. 유체 플라즈마의 강도는 전기에너지가 증가함에 따라서 증가함으로 측정되었다. 제조된 나노입자의 크기는 유체 플라즈마의 강도가 증가함에 따라서 감소하였고, 대부분의 나노입자의 형상은 구형으로 제조되었다. 나노유체의 분산안정성 또한 유체 플라즈마의 강도가 증가함에 따라서 증가하였다. 직경이 $18.1{\pm}5.0$ nm인 나노유체의 열전도도는 3%로 측정되었다. 유체 플라즈마에 의한 나노유체의 제조 메카니즘을 다음과 같이 제안한다. 유체내에서 전기에너지 인가에 따른 이온과 전자의 흐름은 유체 플라즈마를 발생시킨다. 기본 유체는 물이므로 유체 플라즈마의 주요 발생 원소는 수소와 산소이며, 인가되는 전기에너지량이 증가함에 따라서 이온과 전자의 흐름이 증가됨으로서 유체 플라즈마의 강도가 증가함으로 추측한다. 유체 플라즈마 발생은 전자의 흐름과 관계되어진다. 따라서, 유체내에 존재하는 전구체에 전자가 제공되어짐에 따라서 금 입자를 환원시켜 입자가 형성된다. 또한, 유체 플라즈마는 나노입자를 음전하로 대전시켜 분산안정성의 확보가 되는 것으로 추측되어진다.

In this paper, we propose an automatic displacement system for testing stability of structure. Photogrammetry is a method which can measure accurate 3D data from 2D images taken from different locations and which is suitable for analyzing and measuring the displacement of structure. This paper consists of camera calibration, feature extraction using coded target & retro-reflective circle, 3D reconstruction and analyzing accuracy. Multi-view camera which is used for measuring displacement of structure is placed with different location respectively. Camera calibration calculates trifocal tensor from corresponding points in images, from which Euclidean camera is calculated. Especially, in a step of feature extraction, we utilize sub-pixel method and pattern recognition in order to measure the accurate 3D locations. Scale bar is used as reference to measure. the accurate value of world coordinate..

A novel vision-based scheme of extracting real-time traffic information parameters is presented. The method is based on a region classification followed by a spatio-temporal image analysis. The detection region images for each traffic lane are classified into one of the three categories: the road, the vehicle, and the shadow, using statistical and structural features. Misclassification in a frame is corrected by using temporally correlated features of vehicles in the spatio-temporal image. Since only local images of detection regions are processed, the real-time operation of more than 30 frames per second is realized without using dedicated parallel processors, while ensuring detection performance robust to the variation of weather conditions, shadows, and traffic load.
