적외선 영상 시스템으로 야외에서 다양한 영상에 대하여 테스트를 할 때 테스트 한 영상을 저장하여 비교확인이 필요하다. 야외에서 시험을 하기 때문에 휴대성이 간편해야 하며 장시간의 영상을 저장하여야 하기 때문에 많은 저장공간이 필요로 한다. 또한 시험 이후에 쉽게 PC와 접속하여 저장된 데이터를 다운로드 받을 수 있어야 한다. 최근 메모리 시스템의 발전으로 쉽게 On Board 형태로 사용할 수 있는 eMMC 메모리를 활용하여 야외시험용 적외선 영상 저장보드를 설계할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 적외선 영상을 쉽게 저장하고 다운받을 수 있는 휴대가 간편한 영상 저장보드 설계에 대하여 설명하고 PC와 접속하여 저장된 영상을 다운 받을 수 있는 GUI 프로그램에 대하여 설명한다.

In this paper, we propose a two-scale fusion method for infrared and visible images using saliency and variance. The images are separated into two scales respectively: a base layer of low frequency component and a detailed layer of high frequency component. Then, these are synthesized using weight. The saliencies and the variances of the images are used as the fusion weights for the two-scale images. The proposed method is tested on several image pairs, and its performance is evaluated quantitatively by using objective fusion metrics.

적외선 센서는 대상 물체의 열 분포를 감지할 수 있고, 그것으로부터 얻은 영상은 물체 내부의 결함과 그 물체표면의 이물질 등의 효과가 모두 포함된 상태이므로 적외선 열 화상 자체만으로는 비정상적인 부분들을 찾아내기 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 적외선 센서로부터 얻은 영상을 가시화 하는 방법으로 가시광선 영상과의 중첩방법을 제시한다. 이를 위해서 평행이동 관계에 있는 두 가시광선 영상으로부터 열 화상에 대응하는 보간 영상을 생성하고, 이것을 적외선 센서에 의해 감지된 온도를 매핑한 열 화상과 중첩시킨다. 본 논문에서 제안한 가시화 기법은 적외선 센서의 특성을 최대한 고려할 수 있기 때문에 재해방지를 위한 비파괴 검사 등에 쓰여질 수 있다.

For the economic management of photovoltaic power plants, it is necessary to regularly monitor the panels within the plants to detect malfunctions. Thermal infrared image cameras are generally used for monitoring, since malfunctioning panels emit higher temperatures compared to those that are functioning. Recently, technologies that observe photovoltaic arrays by mounting thermal infrared cameras on UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) are being developed for the efficient monitoring of large-scale photovoltaic power plants. However, the technologies developed until now have had the shortcomings of having to analyze the images manually to detect malfunctioning panels, which is time-consuming. In this paper, we propose an automatic photovoltaic panel area extraction algorithm for thermal infrared images acquired via a UAV. In the thermal infrared images, panel boundaries are presented as obvious linear features, and the panels are regularly arranged. Therefore, we exaggerate the linear features with a vertical and horizontal filtering algorithm, and apply a modified hierarchical histogram clustering method to extract candidates of panel boundaries. Among the candidates, initial panel areas are extracted by exclusion editing with the results of the photovoltaic array area detection. In this step, thresholding and image morphological algorithms are applied. Finally, panel areas are refined with the geometry of the surrounding panels. The accuracy of the results is evaluated quantitatively by manually digitized data, and a mean completeness of 95.0%, a mean correctness of 96.9%, and mean quality of 92.1 percent are obtained with the proposed algorithm.

To solve the problems of the low image contrast, fuzzy edge details and edge details missing in noisy image fusion, this study proposes a noisy infrared and visible light image fusion algorithm based on non-subsample contourlet transform (NSCT) and an improved bilateral filter, which uses NSCT to decompose an image into a low-frequency component and high-frequency component. High-frequency noise and edge information are mainly distributed in the high-frequency component, and the improved bilateral filtering method is used to process the high-frequency component of two images, filtering the noise of the images and calculating the image detail of the infrared image's high-frequency component. It can extract the edge details of the infrared image and visible image as much as possible by superimposing the high-frequency component of infrared image and visible image. At the same time, edge information is enhanced and the visual effect is clearer. For the fusion rule of low-frequency coefficient, the local area standard variance coefficient method is adopted. At last, we decompose the high- and low-frequency coefficient to obtain the fusion image according to the inverse transformation of NSCT. The fusion results show that the edge, contour, texture and other details are maintained and enhanced while the noise is filtered, and the fusion image with a clear edge is obtained. The algorithm could better filter noise and obtain clear fused images in noisy infrared and visible light image fusion.

We have developed and applied a diagnostic Multi-Leaf Collimator (MLC) to optimized the X-ray field in medical imaging and the usefulness evaluated through the fusion of infrared image and X-ray image acquired by infrared camera. The hand and skull radiography with multi-leaf collimator(MLC) showed significant area dose reductions of 22.9% and 31.3% compared to ARC and leakage dose was compliant with KS A 4732. Also scattering doses of 50 cm and 100 cm showed a significant decrease to confirm the usefulness of MLC. It was confirmed that the fusion of infrared images with an adjustable degree of transparency was possible in the X-ray images. Therefore, fusion of anatomical information with physiological convergence is expected to contribute and improvement of diagnostic ability. In addition, the feasibility of convergence X-ray imaging and DITI devices and the possibility of driving MLC with infrared images were confirmed.

A Scene Based Technique(SBT) that corrects linear array infrared detector's nonuniformity is proposed. Basically, this technique dispenses with using temperature references on a linear array infrared detector. To correct the nonuniformity of infrared images, we use three methods. Firstly, we detect bad channels by using the information which is cumulated all the same line pixels. Secondly, a variable window method is applied to compensate more accurately. Thirdly, an adaptive method which updates gain and offset coefficient is used only on a stationary region. These results are demonstrated on a computer simulation with various images. As a result, the nonuniformity is corrected completely, so that images are enhanced and PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) is improved much.

Satellite infrared images were analyzed to study the distribution of eddies off the east coast of Korea from 1987 to 1991. Most of the eddies were filament-type and were generated near the fringe of the East Korea Warm Current (EKWC) flowing northward. Eddies having length of 20-40km and width of 10-20km were most abundant. The meso-scale eddies of 100-200km in diameter were found between Mukho and Wonsan Bay in almost all the images. There was no evidence for the consistent movement of eddies to a definite direction. The Ulleung Warm Eddy, although reported previously by the hydrographic data, could not be identified by the limited amount of infrared imagery.

Fresh water discharge from the sea floor strongly affects a coastal ecology and the diffusion of contaminants. Much fresh water discharge has been found in the edge of Kurobe alluvial fan, in which annual rainfall is over 4000mm and there is abundant groundwater. However, it is difficult to find the groundwater discharge, thus the search of possible areas with some remote sensing tools is required. Because the temperature of the discharge point is relatively low compared with the surrounding sea water surfaces, there is a possibility to detect the area as an irregular zone of thermal infrared images. Two anomalous temperature zones, which have no surface streams from rivers, are detected by ASTER thermal-infrared images. One of them was verified as the groundwater discharge point by dives. In addition, the distribution of water table under the land side of the two areas is also detected as irregular zones by a ground-penetrating radar

IC 기판의 가장 중요한 성질들의 하나는 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 균일해야만 한다는 것이다. 웨이퍼 결함 분석의 다양한 물리적 접근 방법 중에서 적외선 조사 기법에 특별한 관심이 모아지고 있다. 특히, 높은 공간적 분해력을 가지고 있는 근적외선 흡수 방법은 반-절연 GaAs 내의 결함들을 직접적으로 관찰하는데 이용되고 있다. 적외선 전송에 기초를 둔 이 기법은 신속하고 비파괴 적이다. 이 방법은, 직접적으로 GaAs 반도체의 적외선 영상은 결함의 광흡수 작용에 기인한 것임을 밝히고 있다. 반-절연 GaAs 내의 EL2에 관련된, 비 균일 적으로 분포된 결함들의 적외선 흡수 영상에서 콘트라스트가 반전되는 현상에 대해 새로운 모델을 제시하고 있다. 저온 포토퀀칭 실험은, 직접적인 방법으로, GaAs 웨이퍼의 콘트라스트 반전 영상은 밴드갭의 지엽적인 변동이나 전하 재분포에 의한 것이 아니라 흡수와 산란의 두 메커니즘에 의한 것임을 증명하고 있다.
