Concentric mosaics are made with arranging and summing of video frames by using common spacial standards. Compared with previous works on 3-D wavelet transform coding, we have made important design considerations to enable flexible partial decoding and bit-stream random access. A just-in-time(JIT) rendering engine of the compressed concentric mosaic is developed. However, computationally, it is still demanding to accomplish the real-time rendering. Only the contents for specific scene representation are need to be decoded by maintaining compressed data. Thus our proposed algorithm is able to render real concentric mosaic by using lifting scheme instead of wavelet transform.

Natural synthesis of real and virtual images is a key technology in mixed reality. For this purpose, we propose an efficient dense disparity estimation algorithm and a synthesis algorithm considering features of stereo images. Dense disparities are estimated hierarchically from the low to high resolution images. In the process, the region-dividing-bidirectional-matching algorithm makes matching process efficient and keeps the reliability of the estimated disparities, and dense disparities are assigned considering edge information. finally, mixed reality stereo images are synthesized by comparing depth data of real and virtual Images. Computer simulation shows that the proposed algorithms estimate very stable disparity vectors with sharp edge and synthesize natural stereo mixed reality images.

In this study we propose to use a facial motion capture technique to track facial motions and expressions effectively by using the stereo vision module, which has two CMOS IMAGE SENSORS. In the proposed tracking algorithm, a center point tracking technique and correlation tracking technique, based on neural networks, were used. Experimental results show that the two tracking techniques using stereo vision motion capture are able to track general face expressions at a 95.6% and 99.6% success rate, for 15 frames and 30 frames, respectively. However, the tracking success rates(82.7%,99.1%) of the center point tracking technique was far higher than those(78.7%,92.7%) of the correlation tracking technique, when lips trembled.

Wireless LANs are being used in many fields due to their ease of use. The biggest advantage of the WLAN can be said above all mobility. Domestic wired internet service has been saturated since 2006, but wireless internet users have been steadily increasing. However, WLAN has many advantages and characteristics of wireless service. It has a number of security vulnerabilities, and various security related technologies have been developed and applied to solve these problems. On the other hand, security awareness of WLAN users is still insufficient, and security accidents such as personal information leakage occur repeatedly every year. We will study the main weaknesses that can occur in WLAN and suggest security measures from the management level.

In this paper, we propose a novel motion recognition platform using smart-phone tracking and color communication. The interface requires only a camera and a personal smart-phone to provide a motion control interface rather than expensive equipment. The platform recognizes the user's gestures by the tracking 3D distance and the rotation angle of the smart-phone, which acts essentially as a motion controller in the user's hand. Also, a color coded communication method using RGB color combinations is included within the interface. Users can conveniently send or receive any text data through this function, and the data can be transferred continuously even while the user is performing gestures. We present the result that implementation of viable contents based on the proposed motion recognition platform.

This paper studies a light emitting diode(LED) overlapping method of a head-up display that consists of a digital micro device(DMD) panel and a red, green, blue LED in order to increase the brightness of display system and optical output power. This optimization overlapping method removes a quantization noise which occur due to LED overlapping too excessive and stabilizes the junction temperature of LED. In order to reduce junction temperature of LED, the a correlation between a green duty and LED overlapping ratio is studied. Throughout this study, the brightness of head-up display exhibited high increasement ratio of luminance around 33.3 percent at 39 percent overlapping method.

자유시점 비디오는 단순히 수동적으로 비디오를 보는 것이 아니라 원하는 시점을 자유로이 선택하여 보는 능동형 비디오이다. 일반적으로 다양한 위치 및 다양한 각도에 위치하는 다수의 카메라로부터 촬영된 영상을 이용하여 제작하는데, 이 기술은 박물관 투어, 엔터테인먼트 등의 다양한 분야에서 활용된다. 본 논문에서는 자유시점 비디오의 새로운 분야로 한 장의 영상을 가상 카메라와 깊이맵을 이용하여 영상 내부를 네비게이션하는 자유시점 입체 Tour-Into-Picture (TIP)을 제안한다. 오래전부터 TIP가 연구되어 왔는데, 이 분야는 한 장의 사진 내부를 탐험하면서 애니메이션으로 볼 수 있게 하는 기술이다. 제안 방법은 전처리과정으로 전경 마스크, 배경영상, 및 깊이맵을 자동 및 수동 방법으로 구한다. 다음에는 영상 내부를 항해하면서 투영 영상들을 획득한다. 배경영상과 전객객체의 3D 모델링 데이터를 기반으로 가상 카메라의 3차원 공간 이동, yaw, pitch, rolling의 회전, look-around effect, 줌인 등의 다양한 카메라 기능을 활용하여 자유시점 비디오를 구현한다. 또한 깊이정보의 특성 및 구조에 따라 놀라운 시청효과를 전달하는 카메라 기능의 설정 방법을 소개한다. 소프트웨어는 OpenGL 및 MFC Visual C++ 기반으로 구축되었으며, 실험영상으로 조선시대의 작품인 신윤복의 단오풍정을 사용하였고, 입체 애니메이션으로 제작되어 보다 실감있는 콘텐츠를 제공한다.

In this paper, we propose a new scheme to generate region-of-interest (ROI) enhanced depth maps in the hybrid camera system, which is composed of a low-resolution depth camera and a high-resolution stereoscopic camera. The proposed method creates an ROI depth map for the left image by carrying out a three-dimensional (3-D) warping operation onto the depth information obtained from the depth camera. Then, we generate a background depth map for the left image by applying a stereo matching algorithm onto the left and right images captured by the stereoscopic camera. Finally, we merge the ROI map with the background one to create the final depth map. The proposed method provides higher quality depth information on ROI than the previous methods.

The In-loop filtering methods such as de-blocking filter and SAO(Sample Adaptive Offset) applied to the HEVC standard achieves coding efficiency and subjective quality improvement by reducing the blocking artifacts and the ringing artifacts. However, despite the use of In-loop filtering methods, the artifacts called a corner outlier occurring at the corner points of block boundaries are not removed. In this paper, the corner outlier artifacts are reduced by the detection, determination, and filtering processes on the corner outlier pixels. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the subjective picture quality and slightly increases the coding efficiency in Inter prediction.

Due to the demand for high speed 3D graphic rendering, video file format conversion, compression, encryption and decryption technologies, the importance of digital signal processor system is growing rapidly. In order to satisfy the real-time constraints, high performance digital signal processor is required. Therefore, as in general purpose computer systems, digital signal processor should be designed as multicore architecture as well. Using UTDSP benchmarks as input, the trace-driven simulation has been performed and analyzed for the 2 to 16-core digital signal processor architectures with the cores from simple RISC to in-order and out-of-order superscalar processors for the various window sizes, extensively.
