거울은 인간이 자신의 모습을 들여다 보기 위해 오랜 세월 동안 이용했던 친숙한 도구이다. 디지털 기술의 발달로 우리는 빛과 정보를 함께 반사해 주는 거울에 대한 여러가지 접근들을 보아 왔다. 전통적인 거울은 빛의 즉각적인 반사에 의해 일어나는 자동적인 시각적 피드백 덕분에 특별한 조작이 필요하지 않으나, 빛과 정보가 함께 반사되는 디지털 거울에서는 다른 형태의, 좀더 적극적인 사용자 인터랙션을 기대할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 사용자와 거울간의 거리에 따른 행태 조사를 중심으로 인터랙션 유형의 사례 분류 및 사용자 조사 연구를 정리하였다. 이를 바탕으로 거리에 따라 다른 사용자 요구사항을 충족하는 디지털 거울에 적합한 조작 인터페이스를 제안하고, 초기 모델로 회전식 적외선 격자를 이용한 조작, 비젼 기반의 정면 이미지 획득 및 얼굴 확인, 그리고 적외선 위치확인을 통해 사용자와 인터랙션하는 거울을 설계하였다. 본 연구에서는 거울과의 인터랙션에서 나타나는 사용자의 요구사항을 토대로 여러 비접촉식 거울 인터페이스를 설계하고 시스템에 적용한 사례를 분석한다. 아울러 결과물의 초기모델에 대한 분석을 통해 더 개선된 형태의 '거울을 응용한 시스템'의 설계 가능성을 보일 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose monocular visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in the large-scale environment. The proposed method continuously computes the current 6-DoF camera pose and 3D landmarks position from video input. The proposed method successfully builds consistent maps from challenging outdoor sequences using a monocular camera as the only sensor. By using a binary descriptor and metric-topological mapping, the system demonstrates real-time performance on a large-scale outdoor dataset without utilizing GPUs or reducing input image size. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated on various challenging video sequences.

A pressurizer is one of the major safety related equipment of nuclear power plants. In order to inspect and maintain the internal structures of a pressurizer, jumpers have to enter the pressurizer, in spite of the high dose exposure. Therefore, a tele-operated robotic manipulator has been developed, which consists of four parts with 2DOFs arms, a gripper, base frame, and control console. The task of this robotic manipulator is to extract the damaged electric heaters and inspect the internal structure of the pressurizer. The gripper hanging from the manipulator approaches the heaters and extracts the damaged heater by using a self-locking mechanism. In order to investigate the structural stability of the robotic manipulator, a stress analysis has been performed by using the ANSYS code. The results of this paper include the position control and vibration control of robotic gripper and the development of processing visual information for a vision sensor.

For mobile robot, recognizing its current location is very important to navigate autonomously. Especially, loop closing detection that robot recognize location where it has visited before is a kernel problem to solve localization. A considerable amount of research has been conducted on loop closing detection and localization based on appearance because vision sensor has an advantage in terms of costs and various approaching methods to solve this problem. In case of scenes that consist of repeated structures like in corridors, perceptual aliasing in which, the two different locations are recognized as the same, occurs frequently. In this paper, we propose an improved method to recognize location in the scenes which have similar structures. We extracted salient regions from images using visual attention model and calculated weights using distinctive features in the salient region. It makes possible to emphasize unique features in the scene to classify similar-looking locations. In the results of corridor recognition experiments, proposed method showed improved recognition performance. It shows 78.2% in the accuracy of single floor corridor recognition and 71.5% for multi floor corridors recognition.

This paper presents a mobile robot that travels employing visual information. The mobile robot is equipped solely with a TV camera as a sensor, and views from the TV camera are transferred to a separately installed micro computer through an image acquisition device. An acquired image of a view is processed there and the information necessary for travel is yielded. Instructions based on the information are then sent from the micro computer to the mobile robot, which causes the mobile robot next action. Among several application programs that have already been developed for the mobile robot other than the entire control program, this paper focuses its attention on the travelling control of the mobile robot in a model environment with obstructions as well as an overview of the whole system. The behaviour the present mobile robot takes when it travels among obstructions was investigated by an experiment, and satisfactory results were obtained.

In this paper, we propose a new training system for the improvement of equilibrium sense using unstable platform. The equilibrium sense, which provides orientation with respect to gravity, is important to integrate the vision, somatosensory and vestibular function to maintain the equilibrium sense of the human body. In order to improve the equilibrium sense, we developed the software program such as a block game, pingpong game using Visual C++. These training system for the equilibrium sense consists of unstable platform, computer interface and software program. The unstable platform was a simple structure of elliptical-type which included tilt sensor, wireless RF module and the device of power supply. To evaluate the effect of balance training, we measured and evaluated the parameters as the moving time to the target, duration to maintain cursor in the target of screen and the error between sine curve and acquired data. As a results, the moving time to the target and duration to maintain cursor in the target was improved through the repeating training of equilibrium sense. It was concluded that this system was reliable in the evaluation of equilibrium sense. This system might be applied to clinical use as an effective balance training system.
