A realization for moving object sensing and tracking system in two dimensional plane using stereo line CCDs and lighting source is presented in this paper. The system is realized that instead of processing camera images directly, two line CCD sensor and input line image is used to measure two dimensional distance by comparing the brightness on line CCDs. The algorithms are used the moving object sensing, path tracking and coordinate converting method. To ensure the effective detection of moving path, a detection algorithm to evaluate the reliability of each measured distance is developed. The realized system results are that the performance of moving object recognizing shows 5mm resolution, and enables to track a moving path of object per looms period.

The CCD Earth Images Experiment(CEIE) is one of the main payload of the KITSAT-1. Since it was launched on Oct. 10, 1992, the CEIE has taken more than 500 images on the Earth surface world-wide so far. An image from the space is very different from a feature on the real Earth surface due to various radiometric and geometric distortions. Preprocessing to remove those distortions has to take place before the images data are processed and analyzed further for various applications. This paper describes the procedure to perform preprocessing including radiometric and geometric correction.e-processing system. The GCP marking using this technique showed a sufficient accuracy for KITSAT1,2 narrow camera images.

Triplex composite is an epoxy-bonded joint structure, which constitutes the secondary barrier in a liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier. Defects in the triplex composite weaken its shear strength and may cause leakage of the LNG, thus compromising the structural integrity of the LNG carrier. This paper proposes an autonomous triplex composite inspection (ATCI) system for visualizing and classifying hidden defects in the triplex composite installed inside an LNG carrier. First, heat energy is generated on the surface of the triplex composite using halogen lamps, and the corresponding heat response is measured by an infrared (IR) camera. Next, the region of interest (ROI) is traced and noise components are removed to minimize false indications of defects. After a defect is identified, it is classified as internal void or uncured adhesive and its size and shape are quantified and visualized, respectively. The proposed ATCI system allows the fully automated and contactless detection, classification, and quantification of hidden defects inside the triplex composite. The effectiveness of the proposed ATCI system is validated using the data obtained from actual triplex composite installed in an LNG carrier membrane system.

A more accurate method of feature point extraction and matching for three-dimensional reconstruction using low-resolution images of crops is proposed herein. This method is important in basic computer vision. In addition to three-dimensional reconstruction from exact matching, map-making and camera location information such as simultaneous localization and mapping can be calculated. The results of this study suggest applicable methods for low-resolution images that produce accurate results. This is expected to contribute to a system that measures crop growth condition.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to develop a drum club activities program for soldiers and to explore the effects of the program on the mental health of soldiers. Methods: This study used one group pretest-posttest design. A drum club activities program for soldiers was offered for 12 weeks with each session of 2 hours. A total of 33 participants were recruited but eighteen participants who did not participate in sessions of the program more than 3 times were dropped out of the study. Finally, data from 15 participants were analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 program. Mental health status (stress, anxiety and aggression) was measured by Vibraimage technology. Vibraimage technology is a useful and objective method to identify the human psychophysiological state by analyzing the movement of various frequencies and amplitudes of head motion and face image using camera. Results: There is statistically significant difference in anxiety (Z=-3.12, p<.001) after implementation of the program. However, there was no statistically significant difference in stress and aggression. Conclusion: The results indicate that the drum club activities program was effective in decreasing anxiety in soldiers. The drum club activities program can be considered as a possible nursing intervention strategy to reduce anxiety for soldiers.

In this paper, we designed a 3D shape measuring system with high speed and high measurement resolution using line-shaped sine stripes of a LCD projector We proposed an effective method to improve measurement efficiency for a 3D shape measuring system by finding the deficient shape information areas and recovering the shape information efficiently. We experimentally confirmed the improvement of measurement efficiency. Deficient shape information areas can be inevitably existed in a acquired image caused by the camera view angle and surface shapes of an object. The measurement efficiency is turned out to be improved by extracting these shadow areas and recovering the shape information efficiently using both a variable rated normalization and a variable sized phase recovering windows.

In this paper. we Present an estimation method of a face pose by using two camera images. First, it finds corresponding facial feature points of eyebrow, eye and lip from two images After that, it computes three dimensional location of the facial feature points by using the triangulation method of stereo vision techniques. Next. it makes a triangle by using the extracted facial feature points and computes the surface normal vector of the triangle. The surface normal of the triangle represents the direction of the face. We applied the computed face pose to display a 3D face model. The experimental results show that the proposed method extracts correct face pose.

An environmental radon monitoring system, comprising a radon-cup, an etching system, and a track counting system, was constructed. The radon cup is a cylindrical chamber with a radius of 2.2 cm and a height of 3.2 cm in combination with a CR-39 detector. Carbon is impregnated in the bodies of the detector chamber to avoid problem of an electrostatic charge. The optimized etching condition for the CR-39 exposed to a radon environment turned out to be a 6 N NaOH solution at 70^{\circ}$ over a 7hour period. The bulk etch rate under the optimized condition was $1.14{\pm}0.03\;{\mu}m\;h^{-1}$. The diameter of the tracks caused by radon and its progeny were found to be in the range of $10\~25\;{\mu}m$ under the optimized condition. The track images were observed with a track counting system, which consisted of an optical microscope, a color charged couple device (CCD) camera, and an image processor. The calibration factor of this system is obtained to be $0.105{\pm}0.006$ tracks $cm^2$ per Bq $m^{-3}$ d.

In this paper, for efficient parking control, in an Arduino environment, an intelligent parking control prototype was implemented to provide parking control and parking guidance information using HC-SR2O4 and RC522. The main elements of intelligent parking control are vehicle recognition sensors, parking control facilities, and integrated operating software. Whether the vehicle is parked on the parking surface may be confirmed through sensor or intelligent camera image analysis. Parking control equipment products include parking guidance and parking available display devices, vehicle number recognition cameras, and intelligent parking assistance systems. This paper applies and implements ultrasonic sensors and RFID concepts based on Arduino, recognizes registered vehicles, and displays empty spaces. When a vehicle enters a parking space to handle this function, the automatic parking management system distinguishes the registered vehicle from the external vehicle through the RC522 sensor. In addition, after checking whether the parking slot is empty, the HC-SR204 sensor is displayed through the LED so that the driver can visually check it. RFID is designed to check the parking status of the server in real time and provide the driver with optimal route service to the parking slot.

Dynamic object recognition is an important task for autonomous vehicles. Since dynamic objects exhibit a higher collision risk than static objects, our own trajectories should be planned to match the future state of moving elements in the scene. Time information such as optical flow can be used to recognize movement. Existing optical flow calculations are based only on camera sensors and are prone to misunderstanding in low light conditions. In this regard, to improve recognition performance in low-light environments, we applied a normalization filter and a correction function for Gamma Value to the input images. The low light quality improvement algorithm can be applied to confirm the more accurate detection of Object's Bounding Box for the vehicle. It was confirmed that there is an important in object recognition through image prepocessing and deep learning using YOLO.
