Volumetric image system has many applications recently in education, 3D movie, medical images but these applications have several problems that need to be overcome. Volumetric display may process a amount of visual data and design the high efficient vision system for realtime display. In case of stereo system for volumetric display motion vectors, disparity vectors from the stereoscopic sequences and residual images with the reference images has been transmitted, and the stereoscopic sequences have been reconstructed at the receiver for volumetric display. So central issue for the design of efficient volumetric image system lies in selecting an appropriate stereo matching and robust vision system. In this paper, we proposed high efficient vision system, which design vision stage with rotating and moving horizontally, and match the successive stereo image efficiently. In experimental results with volumetric image system, the proposed method represents high efficiency with minimizing error and low computational load for volumetric display.

Lane Sensing techniques based on vision sensors are regarded promising because they require little infrastructure on the highway except clear lane markers. However, they require more intelligent processing algorithms in vehicles to generate the previewed roadway from the vision images. In this paper, a lane sensing algorithm using vision sensors is developed to improve the sensing robustness. The parallel stereo-camera is utilized to regenerate the 3-dimensional road geometry. The lane geometry models are derived such that their parameters represent the road curvature, lateral offset and heading angle, respectively. The parameters of the lane geometry models are estimated by the Kalman filter and utilized to reconstruct the lane geometry in the global coordinate. The inverse perspective mapping from the image plane to the global coordinate considers roll and pitch motions of a vehicle so that the mapping error is minimized during acceleration, braking or steering. The proposed sensing system has been built and implemented on a 1/10-scale model car.

A stereo vision system such as the structure of human's eyes has two cameras at separated positions from which we can obtain two input images and then put them together to create 3-D image. It can show more virtual effect than the conventional 2-D image system. But, the stereo image system has to control the convergence angle so that the stereo disparity could always be zero because observers can be fatigued and unconscious of stereo image in conditions that the stereo disparity is not zero for a long work. Therefore, in the paper, optical JTC system which can process adaptive tracking of a specific moving object is proposed as a new approach to keep the stereo disparity to be zero. In this method, optical JTC system obtains the values of the relative locations of a moving objects in left and right images and then these values are used for maintaining the stereo disparity to be zero. Through some optical experiments the proposed stereo vision system is proved to be insensitive to background noises and operate in real-time.

In this paper, the detection scheme of the spatial coordinates based on stereo camera for a Transformation algorithm of an Leg-wheel Hexapod Robot is proposed. Robot designed as can have advantages that do transfer possibility fast mobility in flat topography and uneven topography through walk that use wheel drive. In the proposed system, using the disparity data obtained from the left and right images captured by the stereo camera system and the perspective transformation between a 3-D scene and an image plane, depth information can be detected. Robot uses construed environmental data and transformation algorithm, decide wheel drive and leg waik, and can calculate width of street and regulate width of robot.

This paper presents a method for measuring and analyzing strains in sheet metal forming by stereo vision system. A better understanding and evaluation of the formability can be achieved by analyzing stain distribution in deformed sheet metals. By means of image processing technique, it is possible to get strain distribution efficiently. For measuring strain automatically and accurately, algorithms for camera calibration, grid detection, stereo matching and strain analysis has been developed and verified by experiments with GUI(Graphic User Interface).

This paper describes an intelligent mirror adjustment system that rotates a pair of side mirrors and the room mirror of a car to the optimal position for a driver by using the location of the driver's pupils. A stereo vision system measures the three-dimensional coordinates of a pair of pupils by analyzing the input images of stereo B/W CCD cameras mounted on the instrument panel. This system determines the position angle of each mirror on the basis of information about the location of the pupils and rotates each mirror to the appropriate position by mirror actuators. The vision system can detect the driver's pupils regardless of whether it is daytime or nighttime by virtue of an infrared light source. Information about the pair of nostrils is used to improve the correctness of pupil detection. This system can adjust side mirrors and the room mirror automatically and rapidly by a simple interface regardless of driver replacement or driver's posture. Experiment has shown this to be a new mirror adjustment system that can make up for the weak points of previous mirror adjustment systems.

In this paper, we propose the system which detects the speaker, who is speaking currently, among a number of users. A proposed speaker detection system based on stereo vision and audio is mainly composed of the followings: a position estimation of speaker candidates using stereo camara and microphone, a current speaker detection, and a speaker information acquisition based on a mobile device. We use the haar-like features and the adaboost algorithm to detect the faces of speaker candidates with stereo camera, and the position of speaker candidates is estimated by a triangulation method. Next, the Time Delay Of Arrival (TDOA) is estimated by the Cross Power Spectrum Phase (CPSP) analysis to find the direction of source with two microphone. Finally we acquire the information of the speaker including his position, voice, and face by comparing the information of the stereo camera with that of two microphone. Furthermore, the proposed system includes a TCP client/server connection method for mobile service.

In this paper, we analyzed the mr detection and the stability of the object tracking system by an adaptive stereo object hacking using region-based MAD(Mean Absolute Difference) algorithm and the modified PID(Proportional Integral Derivative)-based pan/tilt controller. That is, in the proposed system, the location coordinates of the target object in the right and left images are extracted from the sequential stereo input image by applying a region-based MAD algorithm and the configuration parameter of the stereo camera, and then these values could effectively control to pan/tilt of the stereo camera under the noisy circumstances through the modified PID controller. Accordingly, an adaptive control effect of a moving object can be analyzed through the advanced system with the proposed 3D robot vision, in which the possibility of real-time implementation of the robot vision system is also confirmed.
