A study was conducted to scrutinize the behavior of the ultrasonically-atomized kerosene lifted-flame according to the carrier gas flow-rate and position of ultrasonic standing wave (USW). The combustion region of the kerosene-aerosol generated through a slit-jet nozzle was visualized using a DSLR, ICCD, high-speed camera, and Schlieren technique, and the fuel consumption was measured by using a precision balance. As a result, the flame was confined within the region bounded by the USW-field, and the fuel consumption decreased as the position of the USW field increased.

With the advance of IT technology, contents from digital multimedia devices and softwares are widely used and distributed. However, novice uses them for illegal purpose and hence there are needs for protecting contents and blocking illegal usage through multimedia forensics. In this paper, we present a forensic technique for identifying digital imaging source using sensor pattern noise. First, the way to acquire the sensor pattern noise which comes from the imperfection of photon detector against light is presented. Then, the way to identify the similarity of digital imaging sources is explained after estimating the sensor pattern noises from the reference images and the unknown image. For the performance analysis of the proposed technique, 10 devices including DSLR camera, compact camera, smartphone and camcorder are tested and quantitatively analyzed. Based on the results, the proposed technique can achieve the 99.6% identification accuracy.

Recently many areas require wide field of view images. Such as surveillance, virtual reality, navigation and 3D scene reconstruction. Conventional camera systems have a limited filed of view and provide partial information about the scene. however, omni directional vision system can overcome these disadvantages. Acquiring 360 degree panorama images requires expensive omni camera lens. In this study, 360 degree panorama image was tested using a low cost optical reflector which captures 360 degree panoramic views with single shot. This 360 degree panorama image system can be used with detailed positional information from GPS/INS. Through this study result, we show 360 degree panorama image is very effective tool for mobile monitoring system.

The objective of this study is to investigate the real flame shape and characteristic of annular combustor. To identify the effects of combustor length ratio and equivalence ratio on the flame shape in annular combustion configuration, the employed parameters are combustor length ratio 0.6-1.0, equivalence ratio 0.7-1.1. The flame shape is visualized using DSLR camera and precision optic mirror. The flame intensity is analyzed by $OH^{*}$ chemiluminescence images with ICCD camera. CO and NOx emission performance is also examined using an exhaust gas analyzer. From the visualized images, it is confirmed that the different tendency appeared in combustor length ratio 0.6-0.7 and 0.8-1.0. The results of $OH^{*}$ chemiluminescence show that the flame intensity is the most uniform for equivalence ratio 0.9. The smaller equivalence ratio is, the less emission of CO and NOx will be in this investigation range.

Recently, the number of camera companies that produce commercializing interchangeable lens systems such as digital single lens reflex (DSLR) and compact system camera (CSC) lenses has been gradually increasing. These interchangeable lenses have various kinds of lenses with distinct specifications. In particular, the distance window among these specifications is the function most preferred by customers. Mechanical manual zoom and manual focus in these high end camera lenses with a distance window are in particular desirable specifications and are required for product quality. However, the AF lens group is linked to the zoom cam and moves. Because the AF lens group moves along with the object distance, we can not realize the distance window with only zoom locus calculation. In this paper, in order to solve the problem, we suggest an optical calculation method for a corrected AF zoom cam for an interchangeable lens with a distance window to achieve product differentiation and analyze the error in the calculation.

The combustion characteristics of gaseous methane-gaseous oxygen, an eco-friendly bipropellant injected by shear coaxial injector, were investigated. Flame was photographed under various combustion conditions using a DSLR camera, and the characteristics of the flame shape was quantified by image post-processing. From the view point of stabilization, the diffusion flame could be divided into anchored flame regime and blow-off regime. As the oxidizer Reynolds number ($Re_o$) increased, a probability of the formation of anchored flame increased with the length of flame. The shear coaxial injector used in this experiment was found to require a large length-to-diameter ratio of combustion chamber because it formed a relatively long flame in the injection direction due to a poor mixing depending only on the momentum diffusion of two propellant jets.

This study is a preliminary research on characterization of methane - oxygen combustion used in bipropellant thruster. The limit of combustion stability and flame shape of methane - oxygen non-premixed flame injected by shear coaxial injector in the model combustion chamber Experimental studies have been carried out. A direct image of the flame was photographed using a DSLR camera, and combustion characteristics and flame length were quantified through image post-processing. As a result, it was confirmed that the stabilized flame was generated at the stoichiometric ratio as the oxidizer Reynolds number ($Re_o$) was increased, and the length of the turbulent flame was increased under the same injector diameter condition.

Background: Proper detection and management of dental plaque are essential for individual oral health. We aimed to evaluate the maturation level of dental plaque using a two-tone disclosing agent and to compare it with the fluorescence of dental plaque on the quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) image to obtain primary data for the development of a new dental plaque scoring system. Methods: Twenty-eight subjects who consented to participate after understanding the purpose of the study were screened. The images of the anterior teeth were obtained using the QLF device. Subsequently, dental plaque was stained with a two-tone disclosing solution and a photograph was obtained with a digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) camera. The staining scores were assigned as follows: 0 for no staining, 1 for pink staining, and 2 for blue staining. The marked points on the DSLR images were selected for RGB color analysis. The relationship between dental plaque maturation and the red/green (R/G) ratio was evaluated using Spearman's rank correlation. Additionally, different red fluorescence values according to dental plaque accumulation were assessed using one-way analysis of variance followed by Scheffe's post-hoc test to identify statistically significant differences between the groups. Results: A comparison of the intensity of red fluorescence according to the maturation of the two-tone stained dental plaque confirmed that R/G ratio was higher in the QLF images with dental plaque maturation (p<0.001). Correlation analysis between the stained dental plaque and the red fluorescence intensity in the QLF image confirmed an excellent positive correlation (p<0.001). Conclusion: A new plaque scoring system can be developed based on the results of the present study. In addition, these study results may also help in dental plaque management in the clinical setting.

Multimedia such as image, audio, and video is easy to create and distribute with the advance of IT. Since novice uses them for illegal purposes, multimedia forensics are required to protect contents and block illegal usage. This paper presents a multimedia forensic algorithm for video to identify the device used for acquiring unknown video files. First, the way to calculate a sensor pattern noise using Wiener filter (W-SPN) is presented, which comes from the imperfection of photon detectors against light. Then, the way to identify the device is explained after estimating W-SPNs from the reference device and the unknown video. For the experiment, 30 devices including DSLR, compact camera, smartphone, and camcorder are tested and analyzed quantitatively. Based on the results, the presented algorithm can achieve the 96.0% identification accuracy.
