The flame image processing and it's analysis system has been developed for optimal coal firing of thermal power plant, especially for reducing NOx and safe operations. We aimed at gaining the relationship between burner flame image, emissions of NOx and LOI(Loss on ignition) in furnace by utilizing the flame image processing methods. And the relationship determines quantitatively the conditions of combustion on the individual burners. The test was conducted on Samchonpo thermal power plant #4 unit(560MW) of KOSEP which has 24 burners. The system simplified the burner adjustment works in accordance with the real time trending of flame behavior like NOx profiles and unburned carbon profiles for individual burners. But, This kind of conventional method increases the cost as the number of burner are increased. Also there is a difficulty to measure exhausted gas of each burner because of measurement errors. This paper intends to propose the useful "Flame Monitoring System" that can find Low NOX and LOI at the upper furnace and to compare with the conventional System.

Maintenance of power distribution facilities is a significant subject in the power supplies. Fault caused by deterioration in power distribution facilities may damage the entire power distribution system. However, current methods of diagnosing power distribution facilities have been manually diagnosed by the human inspector, resulting in continuous pole accidents. In order to improve the existing diagnostic methods, a thermal image analysis model is proposed in this work. Using a thermal image technique in diagnosis field is emerging in the various engineering field due to its non-contact, safe, and highly reliable energy detection technology. Deep learning object detection algorithms are trained with thermal images of a power distribution facility in order to automatically analyze its irregular energy status, hereby efficiently preventing fault of the system. The detected object is diagnosed through a thermal intensity area analysis. The proposed model in this work resulted 82% of accuracy of detecting an actual distribution system by analyzing more than 16,000 images of its thermal images.

This paper describes the design principles and methods of electronic processor for thermal imager with 320$\times$240 staring array infrared detector. For the detector's nonuniformity correction and excellent image quality, we have designed the multi-point correction method using the defocusing technique of the optics. And to enhance the image of low contrast and improve the detection capability, the new technique of histogram processing has been designed. Through these image processing techniques, we have developed the high quality thermal imager and acquired a satisfactory thermal image. The result of MRTD(Minimum Resolvable Temperature Difference) is $0.1^{\circ}C$ at 4cycles/mard.

Through using aspheric lens can result in advantages such as an improved optical transfer function, a reduced distortion path or the realization of special image field curvatures. Using the diamond turning method for generating aspherics, the company claim to be able to generate surfaces with a form error of less than $0.33\;{\mu}\;m$ and a surface roughness of less than $0.025\;{\mu}\;m$. In this paper, we are manufacturing thermal image aspheric lens. Thermal image system is electro-optical imaging device which can make visible the difference of infrared energy naturally emitted by objected. In the result of aspherical surface, the form accuracy of about $0.24\;{\mu}\;m$ P-V was obtained and the surface roughness Ra $0.004\;{\mu}\;m$. Also, a brief review of Ultra-precision system Korea photonics technology institute(KOPTI) is present in this paper.

In this paper, the contrast enhancement method of thermal image is proposed and it is the plateau equalization algorithm using local histogram for the real time display of infrared imagery. Through hardware implementing, its practicality and adequacy are proved. Examinations are executed to verify the effect of contrast enhancement by bright control and contrast control automatic to the plateau value in the manual mode, and that verified the effect of contrast enhancement in the automatic mode and the practicality in the real system. According to the experiment results, the proposed "the application of local histogram and plateau equalization algorithm for contrast enhancement of real time thermal image"in this dissertation is the verified method for the thermal imaging contrast enhancement.

모든 물체에서 방출되는 적외선을 감지하여 영상신호로 만들어 주는 적외선 감지 칩은 보편적으로 적외선감지 소자와 신호 취득 회로가 각기 다른 칩으로 제작되어 하이브리드 본딩 기법을 통해 만들어 진다. 본 논문에서는 신호 취득 회로의 설계 과정과 시뮬레이션 결과를 보여 주며, 실제 제작 결과, 6V의 인가 전압에서 설계 사양에 만족하는 동작 특성을 보임을 확인하였다. 제작된 신호 취득 회로를 이용하여 적외선 감지칩을 제작하고 이를 자체 제작한 열영상 시스템에 장착하여 열영상을 구현해 보았다. 얻어진 열영상은 고온과 상온의 물체에 대해서 인식이 가능한 수준이었으며, 열영상 시스템의 잡음 특성을 좀 더 개선할 경우 더나은 열영상을 얻을 수 있으리라 기대한다.

In a fire disaster in a tunnel, people should be rescued immediately using the information obtained from cameras or sensors. However, in heavy smoke from a fire, people cannot be clearly identified by a mounted CCTV, which is only effective in a clear environment. A thermal camera can be an alternative to this in smoky situations and is capable of detecting people from their emitted thermal energy. On the other hand, the thermal image camera has a smaller field of view than an ordinary camera due to its lens characteristics and temperature error, etc. In order to cover a relatively wide area, panoramic image construction needs to be implemented. In this work, a template-based similarity matching algorithm for constructing the panorama image is proposed and its performance is verified through experiments. This scheme provides guidelines for coping with difficulty in image construction, which requires an exact correspondence search for two images in cases of heavy smoke.

Automated greenhouse production systems often require crop growth monitoring involving accurate quantification of plant physiological properties. Conventional methods are usually burdensome, inaccurate, and harmful to crops. A thermal image analysis system can accomplish rapid and accurate measurements of physiological-property changes of stressed crops. In this research a thermal imaging system was used to measure the leaf-temperature changes of several crops according to water deficit. Thermal images were obtained from lettuce, cucumber, pepper, and chinese cabbage plants. Results showed that there were significant differences in the temperature of stressed plants and non-stressed plants. The temperature differences between these two group of plants were 0.7 to 3$^{\circ}C$ according to species.
