디지털 의료영상 획득기술과 컴퓨터 및 네트워크 기술의 발달로 현재 각 병원에서는 PACS(Picture Archiving and Communication System)를 설치하여 필름을 사용하지 않고 진단과 진료를 하는 병원이 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따라 기존 필름상태의 의료영상은 필름디지타이저로 디지털 영상화한 후 모니터를 통하여 판독과 진료에 이용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 세브란스병원에서 사용되고 있는 CCD 방식 필름디지타이저와 레이저 스캐너방식 필름디지타이저의 픽셀값 균일도에 대해 중점적으로 비교, 분석하고자 한다. 픽셀값 균일도 측정을 위해 필름프린터를 이용하여 균일한 광학밀도를 가진 필름을 출력하였다. 그 테스트 필름은 각 사분면에 각기 다른 광학밀도를 가지고 있었으며, 그 광학밀도 값은 각각 0.19, 0.71, 1.41, 그리고 3.10 이었다. 제작된 필름은 레이저 (Model 2905, Array Corp., Japan) 방식과 CCD 방식 (SEDAS Media Film Scanner, Kodak, japan) 디지타이저에 의해 디지털화 되었다. 그 영상들은 다시 분석을 위해 PACS를 통해 PC로 전송되어졌고 자체 제작된 소프트웨어를 이용하여 균일도에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 하나의 사분면 영상에 대하여 일정한 간격과 크기로 20개의 ROI를 만들고, 그 내부의 픽셀값들의 평균값을 구하여 그 영역의 대푯값으로 하였다. 그 대푯값들 중 최대값과 최소값의 차이에 대한 백분율로써 균일도를 표시하였다. 그 결과 광학밀도가 0.19인 사분변의 영상에서의 균일도는 레이저 방식 및 CCD 방식 각각에서 99.8%, 94.3%였으며, 0.71인 사분면에서는 99.4%, 75.6%, 1.41 일때는 97.9%, 62.96%, 그리고 3.1인 사분면에서는 82.7%, 53.7%였다. 같은 광학밀도를 가진 사분면에서는 레이저방식의 균일도가 CCD 방식에 비해 더 우수함을 알 수 있었으며, 같은 방식에서 얻은 영상이라 할지라도 광학 밀도값이 높은 사분변에서 얻은 영상일수록 균일도가 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로, 레이저 방식 필름 디지타이저는 균일도 면에서도 CCD 방식에 비해 우수함을 알 수 있었으며 CCD 방식은 백라이트의 균일도가 영상의 균일도에 영향을 미칠수도 있는 만큼 향후 거기에 대한 연구도 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Direct Georeferencing (DG) is based on the direct measurement of the projection centers and rotation angle of sensor through loading the GPS and INS in aircraft. The methods can offer us to acquire the exterior orientation parameters with only minimum GCPs, even the ground control process could be completely skipped. In this study, a CCD camera is simultaneously used in GPS/INS, and acquired CCD image through Direct Georeferencing produce digital orthoimage. In this process, methods of combining sensor and digital orthoimage are examined and estimated. For the comparison of the positioning accuracy digital orthoimage through Direct Georeferencing, GCPs determined by GPS surveying are used. Two digital orthoimage are produced; one with a few GCP and the other without them. The produced maps can be used to correct or revised 1:1,000 or 1:5,000 scale maps accordingly.

This paper proposes a virtual target overlay technique for a realistic training simulation which projects a virtual target on ground-based CCD images according to an appointed scenario. This method creates a realistic 3D model for instructors by using high resolution GeoTIFF (Geographic Tag Image File Format) satellite images and DTED(Digital Terrain Elevation Data), and it extracts road areas from the given CCD images for both instructors and trainees, Since there is much difference in observation position, resolution, and scale between satellite Images and ground-based sensor images, feature-based matching faces difficulty, Hence, we propose a moving synchronization technique that projects the targets on sensor images according to the moving paths marked on 3D satellite images. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with satellite and sensor images of Daejoen.

Because CCD camera acquires the digital images without separate processing, its availabilities are increased. In this study, for CCD camera calibration DLT equation and radial or decentering distortion equation are combined and the calibration parameters are calculated using three dimensional test model. The digital images acquired by CCD camera are matched using coefficient of correlation and the three dimensional coordinates of objects are determined. Also, the potential usefulness of CCD camera in close range photogrammetry is examined.

In this paper, we propose the technique for recognizing the human s emotion by using the CCD color image. To do this, we first get the face image by using skin-color from the original color image acquired by the CCD camera. And we propose the method for finding man s feature points(eyebrows, eye, nose, mouse) from the face image and the geometrical method for recognizing human s emotion (surprise, anger, happiness, sadness) from the structural correlation of man s feature feints. The proposed method in this paper recognize the human s emotion by learning the neural network. Finally, we have proven the effectiveness of the Proposed method through the experimentation.

In this paper, we propose a method for controlling camera focus in the short distance by analyzing NTSC signal of a CCD camera. When the distance between a camera and an object is less than about 1 meter, the existing CCD cameras with auto-focusing function are hard to acquire the proper images because they focus on the protruding minute parts ofthe object without taking into account the whole state of the object. To solve such a problem, we use an annealing algorithm to control the motor of a camera by analyzing the overall signal obtained from the camera. By doing so, we can acquire the adequate images at the near distance. The proposed method will be used for a personal identification system by human iris patterns.

For an image sensor CCD, electrons can be trapped at the front-side $Si-SiO_2$ surface interface in a case of exceeding the full well by bright source. Residual images can be made by the electrons remaining in the interface. These residual images are seen in the font-side-illuminated CCDs especially. It is not easy to find a quantitative analysis for this phenomenon in the domestic reports, although it is able to contaminate observation data. In this study, we find residual images iB dark frames which were obtained from the front-side-illuminated CCD at Mt. Lemmon Optical Astronomy Observatory (LOAO), and analyze the effect to contaminated observation data by residual charges.

본 논문에서는 다양한 정보 획득을 목적으로 설계되는 카메라의 핵심 부품인 영상센서의 종류별 동작 특성에 대해 분석하였다. 카메라의 영상센서는 기본적으로 카메라 광학계 설계에 영향을 받으며, 운용의 편이성, 획득 영상의 품질 및 사용되는 환경에 따라 적당한 영상센서가 선택되어 사용된다. 용도에 따라 탑재체에 할당된 무게 및 크기가 제한되므로, 적당한 광학계의 크기와 목표 영상 획득을 위해 센서의 화소면 크기가 결정된다. 가시광선 영역에서는 CCD(Charge Coupled Device), CMOS(complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) 및 NMOS 등의 종류별 영상센서가 사용될 수 있으며, 충분한 광량 확보를 위해서는 넓은 크기의 화소를 보유한 센서가 필요하지만, 이 경우 광학계의 크기와 무게가 증가하여 한정된 자원이 허락된 탑재체 설계에 부담이 된다. 제어단 설계시 빛의 수광 능력이 좋은 CCD 영상 센서를 사용할 경우 좀 더 복잡하고 비교적 높은 소비전력이 요구되는 전자부가 설계되며, 상대적으로 간단한 제어단이 요구되는 CMOS 센서의 경우, 빛의 수광 능력이 CCD에 비해 떨어진다는 단점이 있다. 이 논문에서는 두 가지 영상 센서의 특성 분석을 통해 영상 시스템 설계시 영상 센서 선택에 필요한 고려 사항에 대해 분석하였고, 효율적인 영상 시스템 설계 방안에 대해 서술하였다.

The CCD Earth Images Experiment(CEIE) is one of the main payload of the KITSAT-1. Since it was launched on Oct. 10, 1992, the CEIE has taken more than 500 images on the Earth surface world-wide so far. An image from the space is very different from a feature on the real Earth surface due to various radiometric and geometric distortions. Preprocessing to remove those distortions has to take place before the images data are processed and analyzed further for various applications. This paper describes the procedure to perform preprocessing including radiometric and geometric correction.e-processing system. The GCP marking using this technique showed a sufficient accuracy for KITSAT1,2 narrow camera images.

The advantage of the lidar data is in fast acquisition and process time as well as in high accuracy and high point density. However lidar data itself is difficult to classify the earth surface because lidar data is in the form of irregularly distributed point clouds. In this study, we investigated land cover classification using both lidar data and optical image through a supervised classification method. Firstly, we generated 1m grid DSM and DEM image and then nDSM was produced by using DSM and DEM. In addition, we had made intensity image using the intensity value of lidar data. As for optical images, the red, blue, green band of CCD image are used. Moreover, a NDVI image using a red band of the CCD image and infrared band of IKONOS image is generated. The experimental results showed that land cover classification with lidar data and optical image together could reach to the accuracy of 74.0%. To improve classification accuracy, we further performed re-classification of shadow area and water body as well as forest and building area. The final classification accuracy was 81.8%.
