A lightscape is displayed by lots of luminance containing the wide range of lighting. The measurement of the luminance is limited because the brightness distribution was measured from a point in the existing methods. We used DSLR cameras to get information of the luminance efficiently and conveniently. The application of DSLR camera which easily provides images is widely used nowadays. We suggested the analysis of the luminance and measurement method of the scene from DSLR images using luminance distribution measurement technique.

The Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera combined with a small aperture telescope is an efficient equipment for an astronomy-related lab exercise. This paper compares the different photometry softwares to provide insights on using the GUI-based photometry tool to the conventional command-line based photometry tool. The magnitude of the same point source measured within the aperture is consistent regardless of the software used although the background estimation, partial pixel treatment, and error estimation are slightly different. In a crowded field image where the aperture photometry is less reliable, the aperture photometry with varying aperture size is useful to see the qualitative trend for the magnitude. Due to the variation in ISO settings and the color dependence on the RGB Bayer system, an initial uncertainty of ~0.15mag is expected to be embedded in the magnitude derived from the DSLR images.

최근 일반인들에게 널리 보급되고 있는 DSLR 디지털 카메라로 촬영되는 정지 이미지는 범용의 JPEG 포맷이나 제조사별 독자적인 RAW 파일 포맷으로 저장매체에 저장된다. 이와 함께 PMP 등의 휴대용 멀티미디어 기기를 활용하여 촬영된 RAW 파일 포맷을 재생 및 확인하기 위한 요구가 증대되고 있지만, RAW 파일 포맷이 디지털 카메라 제조사별로 다르고, 해당 포맷에 대한 구체적인 정보가 공개되지 않는 이유로 대부분의 휴대용 멀티미디어 기기에서 RAW 파일 재생 기능을 지원하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 RAW 파일 포맷을 분석하여 향후 임베디드 멀티미디어 기기에서 모든 RAW 파일 포맷을 지원할 수 있는 라이브러리 구축을 위한 사전 작업을 수행하였다. Cannon의 CRW, CR2 포맷과 Nikon의 NEF 포맷을 분석한 결과를 설명한다. 분석 결과를 바탕으로 RAW 파일 포맷에서 JPEG 파일음 성공적으로 추출하였다. MRW, PEF, DCR, DNG 등의 RAW 파일 포맷을 추가로 분석하여 모든 RAW 파일을 재생한 수 있는 임베디드 장비 및 PC용 RAW 파일 재생 라이브러리를 구축할 것이다.

Measurements of deflection in load testing of structures are typically obtained with contact instrumentations such as LVDT (Linear-Variable Differential Transformer). LVDT only measure 1-dimensional deformation and in destructive testing is damage to instrumentation, thus prohibiting deflection when the beam is close to failure. Measurements of deflection using non-metric digital cameras are useful for load testing because there are very little cost or beam failure except for cheap targets and measurements in 3-dimensional deflection can obtained rapidly. In this research, deflection of concrete beam was measured using Nikon D80 DSLR camera, and the accuracy was evaluated with comparing the outputs to the LVDT measurements. The results show that the accuracy of terrestrial photogrammetric measurements are ${\pm}$0.5mm, ${\pm}$0.5mm, ${\pm}$0.6mm for each X, Y, Z directions, and the RMSE of comparison to LVDT is ${\pm}$0.57mm.

The supply of DSLR cameras has increased recently. Because of its widespread use, different types of DSLR camera video techniques have also been developed. Time-lapse is an effective filming technique that helps produce a fine-quality video clip by taking pictures of multiple camera shots during certain time intervals without recording the actual video clip, as the existing technique does. Machinery equipment (dolly), which controls the speed of movement and shutter, needs to be deleted. This paper introduces a method for a designing movement system that satisfies the design conditions. In addition, this paper proved the validity of the design by performing stress analysis on the static and dynamic conditions of the final design.

Digital image correlation (DIC) is now a popular and extensively used full-field metrology technique. In general, DIC is performed by using a turnkey solution offered by various manufacturers of DIC. In this paper, a simple and economical set-up for DIC is proposed which uses easily accessible digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) camera rather than industrial couple-charged device (CCD) cameras. The paper gives a description of aspects of carrying a DIC experiment which includes experimental set-up, specimen preparation, image acquisition and analysis. The details provided here will be helpful to carry DIC experiments without specialized DIC testing rig. To validate the responses obtained from proposed DIC set-up, tension and fatigue tests on specimens made of IS 2062 Gr. E300 steel are determined. Tensile parameters for a flat specimen and stress intensity factor for an eccentrically-loaded single edge notch tension specimen are evaluated from results of DIC experiment. Results obtained from proposed DIC experiments are compared with those obtained from conventional methods and are found to be in close agreement. It is also noted that the high resolution of DSLR allows the use of proposed approach for fracture characterization which could not be carried out with a typical turnkey DIC solution employing a camera of 2MP resolution.

Depth calculation of objects in a scene from images is one of the most studied processes in the fields of image processing, computer vision, and photogrammetry. Conventionally, depth is calculated using a pair of overlapped images captured at different view points. However, there have been studies to calculate depths from a single image. Theoretically, it is known to be possible to calculate depth using the diameter of CoC (Circle of Confusion) caused by defocus under the assumption of a thin lens model. Thus, this study aims to verify the validity of the thin lens model to calculate depth from edge blur amount which corresponds to the radius of CoC. For this study, a commercially available DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) camera was used to capture a set of target sheets which had different edge contrasts. In order to find out the pattern of the variations of edge blur against varying combination of FD (Focusing Distance) and OD (Object Distance), the camera was set to varying FD and target sheet images were captured at varying OD under each FD. Then, the edge blur and edge displacement were estimated from edge slope profiles using a brute-force method. The experimental results show that the pattern of the variations of edge blur observed in the target images was apart from their corresponding theoretical amounts derived under the thin lens assumption but can still be utilized to calculate depth from a single image for the cases similar to the limited conditions experimented under which the tendency between FD and OD is manifest.

Chroma key technique which composes images by separating an object from its background in specific color has restrictions on color and space. Especially, unlike general chroma key technique, image composition for stereo 3D display requires natural image composition method in 3D space. The thesis attempted to compose images in 3D space using depth keying method which uses high resolution depth information. High resolution depth map was obtained through camera calibration between the DSLR and Kinect sensor. 3D mesh model was created by the high resolution depth information and mapped with RGB color value. Object was converted into point cloud type in 3D space after separating it from its background according to depth information. The image in which 3D virtual background and object are composed obtained and played stereo 3D images using a virtual camera.

In this paper, an image-based luminance measurement system(LMS) is proposed to measure the luminance of outdoor signboards. We design the LMS that can improve disadvantages of efficiency of the point-luminance meter and portability of face-luminance meter using the image of DSLR camera and print out the luminance value by using the proposed luminance analysis algorithm in real time. Outdoor signboards have various size and shape, and are also installed on the various place. Luminance of the signboard is influenced by measurement location, angle, color, etc. Therefore, we measure the change of luminance value in accordance with measurement location for accurate luminance measurement and then consider the luminance value according to the measurement distance. We obtain a numerical relation between luminance value and measurement location. The proposed LMS is verified through comparative experiment with point-luminance meter.

This research is focused on an analysis on the structure of RAW image file and the development of a RAW image file viewer for an embedded device. Recently, several RAW image file formats are being used for saving and displaying the images created by various DSLR cameras, and the necessity of handing RAW images in mobile multimedia devices is increasing. For the development of RAW image decoding/encoding library applicable to WinCE-based embedded devices viewer, an analysis of RAW image file formats, such as CRW, CR2, PEF, NEF, MRW, have been performed because their formats are not released in public. By using the library, the analysis software which can extract RAW image data, 2~3 JPEG image files and other informations such as the specification of a camera and various photographic parameters from RAW image files, were developped and a RAW image file viewer which can run in WinCE-based embedded devices. The experimental result has shown that the viewer could encode and decode RAW image files successfully and it took approximately 10secs to load them to the screen in S3C6410 based embedded platform. The outcomes of this research cloud be a good information and solution to multimedia application developers.
