Vibration measurements using image processing have been studied by many researchers as it can remotely measure vibration displacements at multiple points simultaneously. It is difficult, however, to obtain accurate displacement from the measured image signals because the resolution of image data is dependent on camera performance and normally lower than that of vibration transducer directly measured. This paper suggests the enhanced technique for vibration displacement measurement by applying the expected value of edge probability distribution to the varying pixel points in the image. The method can both increase the resolution limit of camera image and decrease the measurement errors. The working performance of the proposed technique is verified applying to the vibration measurement of a rotating machine.

Vibration measurement using image processing is a fully non-contact measurement method and has many application fields. The resolution of vibration data measured by image processing depends on the camera performance and is lower than that measured by accelerometers. This work discusses the method to increase resolution of vibration signal measured by image processing based on the image mosaic technique with a high-power lens. The working principle of resolution enhancement was explained theoretically and verified by several experiments. It was shown that the proposed method can measure vibrations of relatively large scale structures with increased resolutions.

A technique for alignment to true north is presented, based on synchronized measurements of vision image by a camera and output voltage of wind direction sensor. The true wind direction is evaluated by means of image processing techniques with least square sense, and then evaluated true value is compared with measured output voltage of the sensor. The proposed technique is applied to real meteorological tower m Daekwanryung test site. In addition, some uncertainty analysis of this method is presented.

The color sorting technique utilizing the image processing method is very applicable tool to analyze motion of a free-falling object in many agricultural and industrial research fields. In the present study, we have developed an image processing system and algorithm to sort good quality rice grains effectively from the bad ones. The system employs a high speed rate line-scan CCD camera with 2K-pixels and worked with a high speed DSP and FPGA in-line. It can accumulate acquired line-scan image data and visualize each grain image clearly. As a result, we can easily calculate the number of pixels occupied by grain(=grain size), gray level and its correct position by visualizing grain images rapidly.

This paper describes an experimental study of growing ductile crack-tip behaviors by means of computer image processing technique and finite element method. Here, the displacement field near a crack-tip is first measured by the computer image processing technique. Combined with the finite element technique, strain and stress fields are evaluated from the measured displacement. Then, crack-tip parameters such as J-integral are evaluated using the obtained displacement, strain and stress fields. The present technique Is applied to a growing crack problem of tensile CT specimen made of 304 stainless steel. The ductile crack growth behaviors accompanied by unloading are discussed in detail through the comparison between the experimental and the theoretical results.

Since the development of Bubble Image Velocimetry (BIV) technique as the complementary technique of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), the application of digital imaging technique in the field of hydraulic and coastal engineering increased rapidly. BIV works very well in multi-phase flow (air-water) flows where the PIV technique doesn't. However, the velocity field obtained from BIV technique often resulted in a velocity vector on the outside of the flow (false velocity) since the Field of View (FOV) usually not only cover the air-water flow but also the area outside the flow. In this study, a simple technique of post processing velocity field was developed. This technique works based on the average of the pixel value in the interrogation area. An image of multi-phase flow of wave overtopping was obtained through physical experiment using BIV technique. The velocity calculation was performed based on the similar method in PIV. A velocity masking technique developed in this study then applied to remove the false velocity vector. Result from non-masking, manually removed and auto removed false velocity vector were presented. The masking technique show a similar result as manually removed velocity vector. This method could apply in a large number of velocity field which is could increase the velocity map post-processing time.

This paper describes the grenade counting system developed for DPICM submunition analysis using the infrared video streams, and its some video stream processing technique. The video stream data processing procedure consists of four sequences; Analog infrared video stream recording, video stream capture, video stream pre-processing, and video stream analysis including the grenade counting. Some applications of this algorithms to real bursting test has shown the possibility of automation for submunition counting.

This paper subscribes the measurement system that can position the target to measure by moving 2-axis stage, which is controlled by the data from image processing technique. The high resolution camera and lens are used in measurement of micro mechanical part, but the region of measurement is very small. It is necessary the re-positioning to measure several regions in one part. The system described in this paper has the accuracy with about $0.9\mu\textrm{m}$ resolution per one pixel and can be applied to measure micro mechanical part.

The size distributions of electrospray droplets from the Taylor cone in cone-jet mode are directly measured by using a freezing method and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) image processing technique. These results are compared with the data obtained by an aerodynamic size spectrometer (TSI Aerosizer DSP). The use of glycerol seeded with NaI and a freezing method make it possible to sample droplets with their original sizes preserved. Since pictures of droplets are taken with TEM with very low vapor pressure of the solution, evaporation is suppressed by freezing. For liquid flow rates below 1 nl/sec, the measured droplet diameters by the TEM image processing technique and the aerosizer are in the range of 0.25 to 0.32 m add 0.3B to 0.40m, respectively. Comparing the TEM data with the aerosizer measurements, it has been revealed that the TEM image processing technique can afford more accurate values of droplet size distributions in the submicron range of 0.1 to 0.4m.
