This paper introduces a new vision technique for extracting roof edges of polyhedra having specularly reflecting surfaces. There have been many previous works on object recognition using edge information. But they can not be applied to specular objects since it is hard to acquire reliable camera images of specular objects. If there is a method which can extract the edges of specular objects, it is possible to apply edge-based recognition algorithms to specular objects. To acquire the reliable edge images of specular objects, scanned double pass retroreflection method is proposed, whose main physical characteristic is curvature-sensitive. This utility of the physical characteristic is motivated by the idea that roof edges can be characterized as local surfaces of high curvature. In this paper, the optical characteristics of double pass retroreflection are discussed and a series of simulation studies are performed to verify and analyze the sensor characteristics. The results from a series of simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper is aimed to develop an optical method for measuring 3-dimensional shapes of specular objects having curved surfaces. The existing methods measuring the shapes of specular objects have several common disadvantages: they may not work properly if the surface is highly specular like mirror surface or if the reflectance property is not uniform over the surface. And, they often require the a priori knowledege about the surface reflectance. To overcome these disadvantages, the measurement using double pass retroreflection method is proposed in this paper. For this measurement principle, an experimental measuring system is designed and prepared which is composed of a galvanometer scanner, a beam splitter, a laser source, a CCD camera, and a reflector made of retroreflective material. To verify the effectiveness of the measurement system a series of experiments are performaed for various specular objects. The results observed from the experiments show that the developed optical sensing system can be an effective mean of measuring the 3-D shapes of specular objects.

주기적으로 분극 반전된 비선형 결정 중에 하나인 PPLN(Periodically Poled MgO(5%) doped Lithium Niobate)과 수 W급의 고출력 연속발진형 파장가변 적외선 레이저 시스템인 DOFA(Diode Laser Oscillator & Fiber Amplifier) 시스템을 이용하여, 이 결정에서 펌핑광을 한번 통과시키는 단일통과와 두 번 통과시키는 이중통과에서의 효율적인 제2고조파 발생 조건을 실험적으로 구하였다. 단일통과에서는 최적의 위상정합온도 $108.9^{\circ}C$에서 최대 출력 2.45 W의 적외선(파장 = 1070 nm) 펌핑광을 사용하여 최대 245 mW의 녹색광원(파장 = 535 nm)인 제 2고조파를 만들었고, 이때의 주파수 변환 효율은 10%였다. 또한 제 2고조파 발생의 효율을 증가시키기 위해서 되 반사용 오목거울과 위상보정을 위한 쐐기유리판을 이용하여 이중통과의 제2고조파 발생장치를 구성하였다. 이때 최적의 위상정합온도 $108.5^{\circ}C$에서 최대 출력 2.45 W의 적외선(파장 = 1070 nm) 펌핑광을 사용하여 최대 383 mW의 녹색광원(파장 = 535 nm)인 제 2고조파를 만들었다. 이때의 변환 효율은 15.6%로써 단일통과에서의 제 2고조파 발생 효율보다 크게 증가함을 확인하였다.
