As portable multimedia devices become more popular and smaller, the use of portable projectors is also rapidly increasing. However, when portable projectors are used in mobile environments in which a dedicated planar screen is not available, the problem of geometric distortion of the projected image often arises. In this paper, we present a geometric image compensation method for portable projectors to compensate for geometric distortions of images projected on various types of planar or nonplanar projection surfaces. The proposed method is based on extraction of the two-dimensional (2D) geometric information of a projection area, setting of the compensation area, and prewarping using 2D homography. The experimental results show that the proposed method allows effective compensation for waved and arbitrarily shaped projection areas, as well as tilted and bent surfaces that are often found in the mobile environment. Furthermore, the proposed method is more computationally efficient than conventional image compensation methods that use 3D geometric information.

This paper analyzes the distortion correction of the in the micro DMD(digital micro mirror device) projector system using 0.25 or less optical throwing distance ratio. The distortion of projected image occurs depending on the performance of the optical lens, the installation location of the projection system, and the tilt of the screen. This study analyzed the physical tilt values influencing of the distortion of projected image, removed the tilt distortion of throwing distance ratio optical lens, and adjusted the distortion image by the simulation of calibration displacements. The results of this study demonstrated within 5% TV distortion reference. Moreover, the correction method reduced the pin-distortion correction of projection system.

Multiple projectors with partially overlapping regions can be used to project a seamless image on a large projection surface. With the advent of high-resolution photography, such systems are gaining popularity. Experts set up such projection systems by subjectively identifying the types of errors induced by the system in the projected images and rectifying them by optimizing (correcting) the parameters associated with the system. This requires substantial time and effort, thus making it difficult to set up such systems. Moreover, comparing the performance of different multi-projector display (MPD) systems becomes difficult because of the subjective nature of evaluation. In this work, we present a framework to quantitatively determine the quality of an MPD system and any image projected using such a system. We have divided the quality assessment into geometric and photometric qualities. For geometric quality assessment, we use Feature Similarity Index (FSIM) and distance-based Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT). For photometric quality assessment, we propose to use a measure incorporating Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM), Intensity Magnitude Ratio (IMR) and Perceptual Color Difference (ΔE). We have tested the proposed framework and demonstrated that it provides an acceptable method for both quantitative evaluation of MPD systems and estimation of the perceptual quality of any image projected by them.

In this paper, designed infrared (IR) emitter device for infrared scene projector (IRSP) which is used for evaluating the performance of IR sensor systems was simulated by using finite element analysis (FEA) tool and fabricated by using MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical System) technology. The performance of the fabricated IR emitter unit device was characterized in the vacuum chamber by using IR image microscope for MWIR($3{\sim}5{\mu}m$), which showed 423K apparent temperature (Tapp) and 22msec time constant (${\tau}$).

This paper describes a systein which enables a fast 3 -dimensional profile measurement using a slit-ray projection method. One distinctive feature of this system is that a real-time video is processor is employed in order to reduce the amount of image data to be processed without eliminating essential information. Experimental results show that a calibrating method presented for the TV camera and the slit-ray projector is convenient and enables sufficient accurate measurements.

We present a system to measure 3-dimensional coordinates of huge structures like ships, buildings and oil tanks. Two important units are a laser spot projector and a laser spot tracker. Employing a tactful image processing, our system has some features :e.g. compactness, cost, accuracy and robustness to hazardous emvironments.

This System is developed for the estimation of the Camera Lens Resolution. Signal data proportional to light intensity is obtained and sampled from the 2D CCD. Based on the measured signal. the MTF charateristcs of a camera lens are measured. We could measure the sagittal and tangential MTF in the on and off-axis at the same time. The automatic measurig methods for optimal image plane, magnification, and best marginal direction of test lens are presented.

A PIV system consisting of an image board slit into personal computer and 2-D sheet light projector is developed and related techniques to improve its performance are discussed. A grey-level cross correlation method capable of overcoming particle seeding limitation is suggested. And a sub-pixed interpolation method in determining the vector terminal is preposed by considering 8-neighbours correlation distributing patterns. Furthermore, pressure estimation from the acquired velocity vectors by applying the Poisson equation is persented with reasonable feasibility. As a practical application of the present system, evaporator flows are analysed and attained instantaneous velocity vectors reveal that the flow phenomena maintain turbulent fluctuation.

Three dimensional data acquisition system based on the structured light is developed in this work. The system is composed of a CCD camera, slide projector, and various image processing programs. Calibration procedures and several image processing steps which are necessary to get the rnage data are described. A new grid labeling technique and a grid pattern are devised to improve the accuracy of th eobtained data. Preliminary experimental result shows that the developed system may be used as a simple and cheap 3D data acquisition system. Severla suggestions are included for further research.
