The treatment setup of patients during irradiation is an important aspect in relation to the success of radiotherapy. Imaging with the treatment beam is a widely used method or verification of the radiation field position relative to the target area, prior to or during irradiation. In this paper, Real time digital radiography system was implemented or verification of local error between simulation plan and radiation therapy machine. Portal image can be acquired by CCD camera, image board and pentium PC after therapy Radiation was converted into light by a metal/fluorescent Screen. The resulting image quality is comparable to film, so the imaging system represents a promising alternative to film as a method of verifying patient positioning in radiotherapy. Edge detection and field size measurement were also implemented and detected automatically for verification of treatment position. Field edge was added to the original image or checking the anatomical treatment verification by therapy technicians. By means of therapy efficiency improvement and decrease of Radiation side effects with these techniques, Exact Radiation treatments are expected.

Egg production in Korea is becoming automated with a large scale farm. Although many operations in egg production have been and cracks are regraded as a critical problem. A computer vision system was built to generate images of a single , stationary egg. This system includes a CCD camera, a frame grabber board, a personal computer (IBM PC AT 486) and an incandescent back lighting system. Image processing algorithms were developed to inspect egg shell and to sort eggs. Those values of both gray level and area of dark spots in the egg image were used as criteria to detect holes in egg and those values of both area and roundness of dark spots in the egg and those values of both area and roundness of dark spots in the egg image were used to detect cracks in egg. Fro a sample of 300 eggs. this system was able to correctly analyze an egg for the presence of a defect 97.5% of the time. The weights of eggs were found to be linear to both the projected area and the perimeter of eggs v ewed from above. Those two values were used as criteria to sort eggs. Accuracy in grading was found to be 96.7% as compared with results from weight by electronic scale.

In this paper, we described an approach to the automation of visual inspection of BGA solder joint defects of surface mounted components on printed circuit board by using neural network. Inherently, the BGA solder joints are located underneath its own package body, and this induces a difficulty of taking good image of the solder joints by using conventional imaging systems. To acquire the cross-sectional image of BGA sol-der joint, X-ray cross-sectional imaging method such as laminography and digital tomosynthesis has been cur-rently utilized. However, the cross-sectional image obtained by using laminography or DT methods, has inher-ent blurring effect and artifact. This problem has been a major obstacle to extract suitable features for classifi-cation. To solve this problem, a neural network based classification method is proposed int his paper. The per-formance of the proposed approach is tested on numerous samples of printed circuit boards and compared with that of human inspector. Experimental results reveal that the method provides satisfactory perform-ance and practical usefulness in BGA solder joint inspection.

This paper proposes a panoramic image stitching that operates in real time at the embedded environment by applying ROI and PROSAC algorithm. The conventional panoramic image stitching applies SURF or SIFT algorithm which contains complicated operations and a lots of data, at the overall image to detect feature points. Also it applies RANSAC algorithm to remove outliers, so that an additional verification time is required due to its randomness. In this paper, unnecessary data are eliminated by setting ROI based on the characteristics of panorama images, and PROSAC algorithm is applied for removing outliers to reduce verification time. The proposed method was implemented on the ORDROID-XU board with ARM Cortex-A15. The result shows an improvement of about 54% in the processing time compared to the conventional method.

According to the image level definition for KOMPSAT-2 in KOMPSAT-2 Ground Station Specification, the level 0 is frame formatted, unprocessed data at full resolution; any and all communications artifacts (e.g., synchronization frames, communications headers) removed. The level 0 is used for two purposes: 1) exchange of imagery between image receiving & processing element (IRPE), and 2) image transfer from the Receiving & Archiving Subsystem to Search & Processing Subsystem. On-board processing of imagery data of KOMPSAT-2 includes JPEG-like compression and encryption besides conventional CCSDS packetization. The encryption is used to secure imagery data from any intervention during downlink and compression allows real-time downlink of image data reducing data rate produced from the camera. While developing ground receiving system for KOMPSAT-2, it was necessarily to define level 0 products. In this paper, we will suggest level 0 product definition for KOMPSAT-2 and explain reasons of the decisions made. The key factor used while defining the level 0 products is the efficiency of whole ground receiving system. The latter half of the paper will explain the implementation of software that generates level 0 products. The necessary steps to produce level 0 products will be explained, and the performance achieved will be presented.

In this paper, we propose an automatic display defect detection system using image processing. The existing inspection by operators has the disadvantage that human errors may occur due to the operator's skill level, fatigue, etc., and that standardization and quantification are difficult. It also has disadvantages such as the limited inspection speed and the cost of the operator's education. The proposed system automatically detects various display defects through image processing algorithms. It was developed based on the Jetson Nano, one of the most popular SBCs (Single Board Computers), and it has a conveyor belt to automatically moves the display to the inspection position. By providing a human machine interface (HMI), the operator can check the inspection information in real time, and control the inspection flow. By storing the inspection results as a log file, the operator can check the inspection results at any time, such as the time taken to perform each algorithm and the location of the detected defects. In addition, a multi-threaded structure was adopted. The camera's operations and inspection algorithms are executed in parallel in different threads, which can shorten the inspection time compared to the system based on a single-threaded structure. The experimental results prove the defect detection capability of the system and the efficiency of the inspection time.

본 논문에서는 정규화 상관 계산을 이용하여 고속으로 주행하는 튜브의 인쇄 상태를 시각적으로 검사하는 시스템에 대해서 기술한다. 인쇄불량을 자동으로 판정하기 위해 사용된 알고리즘은 정규화 상관 계산이다. 정규화 상관 계산은 영상의 밝기 변화나 그 외 화소값의 선형적인 변화에도 영향을 받지 않기 때문에 보통의 상관 계산을 이용한 것 보다 훨씬 더 안정적인 결과값을 산출해 낼 수 있다는 잇점을 가지고 있다.

Two graphics simulators, SOFTGRA and RACA, have been developed. The SOFTGRA has been implemented by the scan line algorithm using 2 shading models with multi-light sources. The RACA is a ray casting simulator which produces shadowed images with realism. Above two simulators run on Sun micro system and MV10000 and produce image data which are transfered into IBM AT with Metheus' Omega graphics board and drawn there.
