Since the pixel size of the image sensor used in optical systems is gradually decreasing, the resolution specification of the optical system should be inevitably higher. If aberration change according to the eccentricity of a specific lens group occurs, only the amount of eccentricity of a specific lens group may be calculated with the traditional resolution adjustment method so that the aberration of the optical system is minimized to a certain extent. As a result, it is possible to increase the resolution of the optical system and to respond to a sensor with a large number of pixels. However, in the traditional method, there should be no change in specific aberration due to the eccentricity of a specific lens group. In this paper, we propose a new method to eliminate such a limitation of the traditional method in a camera optical system with a floating system, which is to choose and control the arbitrary two lens groups to easily minimize the eccentricity of the optical system in order to obtain an optical system with high resolution.

With the development of 3D graphics software and the speed of computer hardware, it is an era that can be realistically expressed not only in movie visual effects but also in console games. In the production of such realistic 3D models, 3D scans are increasingly used because they can obtain hyper-realistic results with relatively little effort. Among the various 3D scanning methods, photogrammetry can be used only with a camera. Therefore, no additional hardware is required, so its demand is rapidly increasing. Most 3D artists shoot as many images as possible with a video camera, etc., and then calculate using all of those images. Therefore, the photogrammetry method is recognized as a task that requires a lot of memory and long hardware operation. However, research on how to obtain precise results with 3D photogrammetry scans is insufficient, and a large number of photos is being utilized, which leads to increased production time and data capacity and decreased productivity. In this study, point cloud data generated according to changes in the number and resolution of photographic images were produced, and an experiment was conducted to compare them with original data. Then, the precision was measured using the average distance value and standard deviation of each vertex of the point cloud. By comparing and analyzing the difference in the precision of the 3D photogrammetry scans according to the number and resolution of images, this paper presents a direction for obtaining the most precise and effective results to 3D artists.

Proposed in this paper is the intelligent video surveillance system to effectively detect multiple loitering objects even that disappear from the out of camera's field of view and later return to a target zone. After the background and foreground are segmented using Gaussian mixture model and shadows are removed, the objects returning to the target zone is recognized using the chromaticity histogram and the duration of loitering is preserved. For more accurate measurement of the loitering behavior, the camera calibration is also applied to map the image plane to the real-world ground. Hence, the loitering behavior can be detected by considering the time duration of the object's existence in the real-world space. The experiment was performed using loitering video and all of the loitering behaviors are accurately detected.

Mobile manipulators are getting lime light in the field of home automation due to their mobility and manipulation capabilities. In this paper, we developed a small size manipulator system that can be mounted on a mobile robot as a preliminary study to develop a mobile manipulator. The developed manipulator has four degree-of-freedom. At the end-effector of manipulator, there are a camera and a gripper to recognize and manipulate the object. One of four degree-of-freedom is linear motion in vertical direction for better interaction with human hands which are located higher than the mobile manipulator. The developed manipulator was designed to dispose the four actuators close to the base of the manipulator to reduce rotational inertia of the manipulator, which improves stability of manipulation and reduces the risk of rollover. The developed manipulator repeatedly performed a pick and place task and successfully manipulate the object within the workspace of manipulator.

O-rings fill the gaps between mechanical parts. Until now, the sorting of defective products has been performed visually and manually, so classification errors often occur. Therefore, a camera-based defect classification system without human intervention is required. However, a binarization process is required to separate the required region from the background in the camera input image. In this paper, an adaptive binarization technique that considers the surrounding pixel values is applied to solve the problem that single-threshold binarization is difficult to apply due to factors such as changes in ambient lighting or reflections. In addition, the convex hull technique is also applied to compensate for the missing pixel part. And the learning model to be applied to the separated region applies the residual error-based deep learning neural network model, which is advantageous when the defective characteristic is non-linear. It is suggested that the proposed system through experiments can be applied to the automation of O-ring defect detection.

In this paper, we propose a rigid body tracking method in 3D space using 2D passive marker images from multiple motion capture cameras. First, a calibration process using a chess board is performed to obtain the internal variables of individual cameras, and in the second calibration process, the triangular structure with three markers is moved so that all cameras can observe it, and then the accumulated data for each frame is calculated. Correction and update of relative position information between cameras. After that, the three-dimensional coordinates of the three markers were restored through the process of converting the coordinate system of each camera into the 3D world coordinate system, the distance between each marker was calculated, and the difference with the actual distance was compared. As a result, an error within an average of 2mm was measured.

Various methods for reducing the load on the server have been implemented in performing face recognition remotely by the spread of IP security cameras. In this paper, IP surveillance cameras at remote sites are input through a DSP board equipped with face detection function, and then face detection is performed. Then, the facial region image is transmitted to the server, and the face recognition processing is performed through face recognition distributed processing. As a result, the overall server system load and significantly reduce processing and real-time face recognition has the advantage that you can perform while linked up to 256 cameras. The technology that can accomplish this is to perform 64-channel face recognition per server using distributed processing server technology and to process face search results through 250 camera channels when operating four distributed processing servers there was.

Recently, in order to prevent the proliferation of COVID-19, which began in earnest in 2020, an increasing number of places have been measuring the temperature and required to wear a mask. However, as wearing a mask and checking the temperature are typically measured directly by a person or by a single individual positioned in front of the machine, standards may vary based on the person's manual measurement method, wasting workforce. While standing in front of a device often measures the maximum temperature of the face, the standard of fever is also unclear. Both approaches can create bottleneck situations when checking large numbers of people. Furthermore, it is unable to conduct periodic measurements and tracking because the measuring machines are generally put only at the entrance. Thus, this study suggests a method for preventing the spread of infectious diseases by automatically identifying and displaying unmasked people and those with fever in real-time using a general camera, a thermal imaging camera, and an artificial intelligence algorithm.

In this study, we propose a liquid crystal-based polarization control technology that can control polarization by adjusting the voltage applied to the liquid crystal, and apply it to a Closed-circuit Television (CCTV) to transmit only the desired angle of polarized light. CCTV with conventional polarizing films cannot control polarization because they focus on backlight compensation, so light reflected from the water surface or highlights reflected from vehicles interfere with subject identification. However, the Vertical Alignment mode allows the polarization to be adjusted electrically, so that only the polarized light at the user's desired angle is transmitted, eliminating reflected highlights. The images obtained using this technique are optimized by computer software. Liquid crystal polarization panels, which can electrically control the polarization angle, transmittance, and polarization rate, have been applied to polarized image monitoring device to improve subject identification in conventional CCTV.

The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has been the subject of much research as a key indicator for diagnosing, treating, and monitoring kidney function. The gamma camera method (Gates method) is simple and allows simultaneous acquisition of GFR and renal scintigraphy for each kidney, however its accuracy is inferior. This study aimed to investigate changes in GFR depending on how region of interest (ROI) are set up, which is one of many factors influencing accuracy. GFR was calculated by setting the ROI for each phase of the image acquisition time (Gates-1: 0~1 minutes, Gates-2: 1~3 minutes, Gates-3: 3~27 minutes), and statistical significance was verified based on probability value 0.05 through ANOVA analysis. While there was no statistically significant difference among results from Gates-1, 2, 3 (p=0.481>0.05), overall results from the Gates method tended to overestimate compared to those from the multiple blood sampling-dual exponential (MBSDE) method. When comparing averages between phases, results from Gates-2 were most similar to those from the MBSDE method. Moreover, paired t-test p-values between MBSDE method and phases were as follows Gates-1: 0.021 (p<0.05), Gates-2: 0.280 (p>0.05), and Gates-3: 0.164 (p>0.05) indicating that only Gates-1 had statistically significant differences compared with MBSDE method. Thus, setting ROI around 2~3 minutes is calculated can aid in accurately determining GFR when Gates Method.
