4S-Van is being developed in order to provide the spatial data rapidly and accurately. 4S-Van technique is a system for spatial data construction that is heart of 4S technique. Architecture of 4S-Van system consists of hardware integration part and post-processing part. Hardware part has GPS, INS, color CCD, camera, B/W CCD camera, infrared rays camera, and laser. Software part has GPS/INS integration algorithm, coordinate conversion, lens correction, camera orientation correction, and three dimension position production. In this paper, we suggest that adequate 4S-Van design is needed according to application environment from various test results.

Films are sensitive to ultraviolet rays and in contrast, digital camera sensors are extremely sensitive to infrared rays due to the differences in spectral characteristics. As a result, all digital cameras that use CCD or CMOS are equipped with IR Cut-Off Filter on the overall sensor. Complete block out of infrared rays is ideal, but the actual experiment results showed that infrared rays were not being blocked out completely. Infrared permeability was also different for each camera. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of the minute quantities of infrared rays, which get transmitted due to mechanical properties of IR Cut-Off Filters that are installed on digital cameras, on digital picture images. The results obtained by carrying out a comparative analysis of a UV Filter (infrared transmitting state) and a UV-IR Filter (infrared blocked out state) are as follows. It was confirmed that the minute quantities of infrared rays do affect dynamic range and resolution to some extent, despite the little or no difference in noise and color reproduction.

The purpose of this study is a potentiality examination of an infrared camera system for the 3D navigator which can be used in the field of neurosurgery. Nowadays, CAS(computer aided surgery) technique using 3D navigator is rapidly spread into the neurosurgeric operation such as brain and spine surgery. Several techniques which can detect 3D position of a probe have been proposed. These include mechnical arm, magnetic field, optical and ultrasonic sensing methods. In this study, we decided that using optical sensing method and tested a conventional CCD camera with a infrared filter and LEDs. Pulnix TM-300 camra has sufficient spectral response in the range of near infrared. Acquired image of infrared LEDs also sufficient quality.

The first pine wilt damage in Korea, which called AIDS of pine, was found out at Mt. Geumjeong of Pusan province in 1988. The damage area spread 53's city, Gun, Gu throughout the Gyeongsangnamdo in December 2005 since then find out. The best treatment for these damaged forests is well known as fumigation method after early detection. But early detection by an observer is very difficult because of the damaged forest areas are spread over huge range. Also the access of observer is difficult in condition of Korea topographical characteristic. In this study, an attempt was done to investigation about early detection of pine wilt damage using near infrared CCD camera.

In this paper, it is proposed that an attitude and position estimation algorithm based on a stereo camera system for a helmet tracker. Stereo camera system consists of two CCD camera, a helmet, infrared LEDs and a frame grabber. Fifteen infrared LEDs are feature points which are used to determine the attitude and position of the helmet. These features are arranged in triangle pattern with different distance on the helmet. Vision-based the attitude and position algorithm consists of feature segmentation, projective reconstruction, model indexing and attitude estimation. In this paper, the attitude estimation algorithm using UQ (Unit Quaternion) is proposed. The UQ guarantee that the rotation matrix is a unitary matrix. The performance of presented algorithm is verified by simulation and experiment.

To search for the quasars at z > 7 in early universe, we are developing a optical camera which has a $1k\times1k$ deep depletion CCD chip, with later planned upgrade to HAWAII-2RG infrared array. We are going to attach the camera to the cassegrain focus of Otto Struve 2.1m telescope at McDonald observatory of University of Texas at Austin, USA. We present the design of a hardware interface to attach the CCD camera to the telescope. It consists of focal reducer, filter wheel, and guiding camera. Focal reducer is needed to reduce the long f-ratio (f/13.7) down to about 4 for wide field of view. The guiding camera design is based on that of DIAFI offset guider which developed for the McDonald 2.7m telescope.

본 논문은 기존에 사람의 인력이나 열화상 카메라에 의존하고 있는 배전선 기자재 점검을 사람대신 로봇이 점검 작업을 하고 기존의 열화상 카메라만 사용하는 점검 방법에 CCD 카메라를 추가로 사용하여 열화상 이미지와 실영상을 같이 획득하도록 하여 배전선 점검 작업의 안전성 확보와 고장진단의 결과 값들의 객관성 있고 정확한 데이터를 획득을 할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리고 로봇이 가공지선을 자율주행하면서 발생하는 포스트 간 이동, 가공지선 회피, 가공지선 다 분기와 같은 문제가 발생하게 되는데 이러한 문제점들은 센서 융합 방법을 사용하여 로봇이 가공지선을 원활하게 자율주행을 할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리고 배전선 기자재들의 자연적 현상 때문에 발생하는 기자재의 부식과 열화로 변하게 되는 기자재들의 온도를 열화상 카메라로 분석하여 배전선 기자재들의 불량 기준 온도를 초과하게 되면 열화상 이미지와 CCD 카메라의 실영상 이미지가 자동으로 캡쳐 되고 저장 될 수 있게 하였다. 이러한 모든 동작들은 로봇이 자율주행을 하면서 이루어진다.

This study aims to design and implement the finger gesture recognizing system that automatically recognizes finger gestures input through a camera and controls the computer. Common CCD cameras were redesigned as infrared light cameras to acquire the images. The recorded images go through the pre-process to find the hand features, the finger gestures are read accordingly, and an event takes place for the follow-up mouse controlling and presentation, and finally the way to control computers is suggested. The finger gesture recognizing system presented in this study has been verified as the next-generation interface to replace the mouse and keyboard for the future information-based units.

The quality of agricultural products is represented a degree of freshness and a special qualify that has a close relation to commercial value. To grade tomatoes, it used to nondestructive equipment of a charge-coupled device(CCD) camera and near-infrared(NIR) spectrum analysis method. The NIR spectrum analysis method is used to determine internal qualities such as a brix and an acidity. The CCD camera is used to measure external qualities like color and a size of tomatoes. This paper explaines the structure and movement of the automatic grade system and applies the algorithm for deformed tomtatoes and characteristics of tomatoes through image processing to the grade system.
