본 논문에서는 실시간으로 획득된 영상을 분석하여 움직이는 다수 물체를 검출하고, 카메라를 자동 제어하여 관심 보행자만을 추적하는 시스템을 제안한다. 다수 물체 영역 검출은 차영상과 이전변환 밀도값을 이용한다. 검출된 다수 물체 영역에서 사람의 구조적 정보와 형태 정보를 이용하여 나무들의 흔들림으로 인한 영역이나 차량의 움직임 영역은 제거되고, 관심 보행자 영역만을 검출하였다. 관심 보행자 추적은 무게중심 차를 이용한 움직임 정보와 k-means 알고리즘으로 구한 세 점의 평균 색상 정보를 이용한다. 원거리 관심 보행자는 인식률을 높이기 위해 줌을 실행하여 확대하고, 관심 보행자의 화면상 위치에 따라 카메라 방향을 자동으로 조정하여 관심 보행자반을 연속적으로 추적한다. 실험 결과, 제안한 시스템은 실시간으로 움직이는 다수 물체를 검출하고, 사람의 구조적 특정과 형태 정보로 관심 보행자만을 검출할 수 있었고, 움직임 정보와 색상정보로 관심 보행자를 연속적으로 추적할 수 있었다.

기존의 멀티 카메라 시스템은 넓은 영역을 커버하거나 이동 중인 물체를 트래킹 하기 위한 목적으로 주로 사용되어 왔다. 하지만 이러한 시스템은 하나의 카메라가 커버하는 영상이 가려지면 정보를 잃게 되는 단점이 있다. 멀티 카메라 시스템은 하나의 영역을 여러 카메라가 커버하도록 하여 이런 단점을 극복할 수 있다. 또한 다양한 시점의 카메라에서 수집되는 영상의 경우, 영상에 따라 담고 있는 정보가 다르므로 여러 카메라의 입력 정보를 함께 활용하여 보다 많은 정보를 얻을 수도 있다. 본 논문은 이런 장점을 활용하여 멀티 카메라 환경에서의 이벤트 인식 문제를 다룬다. 이를 위해 사무실 환경에 8대의 카메라를 설치하였으며, 시나리오에 따라 영상을 수집하였다. 수집된 영상은 전문가에 의해 어노테이션 된 후 인식 모델의 학습에 사용되며, 학습된 베이지안 네트워크 모델의 구조와 파라미터를 도메인 지식에 기반해서 수정하여 최종 이벤트 인식 모델을 설계하였다. 실험 결과 제안하는 이벤트 인식 모델의 인식률은 평균 87.0%로 Naive Bayes보다 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

The Multi-Spectral Camera (MSC) is the payload of KOMPSAT-2 which is designed for earth imaging in optical and near-infrared region on a sun-synchronous orbit. The telescope in the MSC is a Ritchey-Chretien type with large aperture. The telescope structure should be well stabilized and the optical alignment should be kept steady so that best images can be achieved. However, the MSC is exposed to adverse thermal environment on the orbit which can give impacts on optical performance. Solar incidence can bring non-uniform temperature rise on the telescope tube which entails unfavorable thermal distortion. Three ways of preventing the solar radiation were proposed, which were installing external mechanical shield, internal shield, and maneuvering the spacecraft. After trade-off study, internal sun shield was selected as a practical and optimal solution to minimize the effect of the solar radiation. In addition, detailed designs of the structure and sunshield were produced and analyses have been performed. The results were assessed to verify their impacts to the image quality. It was confirmed that the internal sunshield complies with the requirements and would improve image quality.

Synthetic aperture integral imaging is one of promising 3D imaging techniques to capture the high-resolution elemental images using multiple cameras. In this paper, we propose a method of displaying 3D images in space using the synthetic aperture integral imaging technique. Since the elemental images captured from SAII cannot be directly used to display 3D images in an integral imaging display system, we first extract the depth map from elemental images and then transform them to novel elemental images for 3D image display. The newly generated elemental images are displayed on a display panel to generate 3D images in space. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiments using a 3D toy object and present the experimental results.

Recently, residential spaces in urban areas have changed into multi - family residential spaces. There is a feature that smoke is charged when a fire occurs here. Also, the evacuation route and the direction of the outflow of smoke are the same, and the possibility of inhaling the smoke of the evacuees is very high. When fighting fire in a narrow residential space such as a dwelling in a downtown area, exploration is the most important. For this purpose, we implement EO / IR sensor which can be mounted on firefighter 's helmet and can be used for fire detection. By using the EO / IR operation test, we can derive the results that can be used for research and development of the fire search sensor.

MSC (Multi-Spectral Camera) system is a remote sensing instrument to obtain high resolution ground image. EOS (Electro-Optic System) for MSC mainly consists of PMA (Primary Mirror Assembly), SMA (Secondary Mirror Assembly), HSTS (High Stability Telescope Structure) and DFPA (Detector Focal Plane Assembly). High performance of EOS makes it possible for MSC system to provide high resolution and high quality ground images. Temperature of the EOS needs to be controlled to be in a specific range in order not to have any thermal distortion which can cause performance degradation. It is controlled by full redundant CPU based electronics. The validity of thermistor readings can be checked because a few thermistors are installed on each control point on EOS. Various kinds of thermal control logics are used to prevent 'Single Point Failure'. Control logic has a few set of database in order not to be corrupted by SEU (Single Event Upset). Even though the thermal control logic is working automatically, it can also be monitored and controlled by ground-station operator. In this paper, various ways of thermal control logic for EOS in MSC will be presented, which include thermal control mode and logic, redundancy design and status monitoring and reporting scheme.

Output data streams of the MSC contain flags, Headers and image data according to the established protocols and data formats. Especially the Header added to each data lines contain information of a line sync, a line counter and, ancillary data which consist of ancillary identification bit and one ancillary data byte. This information is used by ground station to calculate the geographic coordinates of the image and get the on-board time and several EOS(Electro-Optical Subsystem) parameters used at the time of imaging. Therefore, the EGSE(Electrical Ground Supporting Equipment) that is used for testing MSC has to have functions of interpreting and displaying this Header information correctly following the protocols. This paper describes the design of the header data processing module which is in EOS­EGSE. This module provides users with various test functions such as header validation, ancillary block validation, line-counter and In-line counter validation checks which allow convenient and fast test on imagery data.

Recent technological advance in UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) technology offers new opportunities for assessing crop situation using UAV imagery. The objective of this study was to assess if reflectance and NDVI derived from consumer-grade cameras mounted on UAVs are useful for crop condition monitoring. This study was conducted using a fixed-wing UAV(Ebee) with Cannon S110 camera from March 2015 to March 2016 in the experiment field of National Institute of Agricultural Sciences. Results were compared with ground-based recordings obtained from consumer-grade cameras and ground multi-spectral sensors. The relationship between raw digital numbers (DNs) of UAV images and measured calibration tarp reflectance was quadratic. Surface (lawn grass, stairs, and soybean cultivation area) reflectance obtained from UAV images was not similar to reflectance measured by ground-based sensors. But NDVI based on UAV imagery was similar to NDVI calculated by ground-based sensors.

Reliability is defined as a probability that a system will operate properly for a specified period of time under the design operating conditions without failure. Reliability-Redundancy Optimization Problem(RROP) involves selection of components with multiple choices, redundancy levels and redundancy strategy(Active or Standby) for maximizing system reliability with constraints such as cost, weight, etc. Based on the design configuration of Multi-Spectral Camera(MSC) system of KOMPSAT-2, the mathematical programming model for RROP is suggested in this study. Due to the nature of RROP, i.e. NP-hard problem, Parallel Particle Swarm Optimization(PPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve it. The result of the numerical experiment for RROP is presented as instance of recommended design configuration at some mission time.

This paper presents a scheme for geometric correction of projected content for planar and quadratic projection surfaces. The scheme does not require the projection surface to be perfectly quadratic or planar and is therefore suitable for uneven low-cost commercial and home projection surfaces. An approach based on the recursive subdivision of second-order B$\acute{e}$zier patches is proposed for the estimation of projection distortion owing to surface imperfections. Unlike existing schemes, the proposed scheme is completely automatic, requires no prior knowledge of the projection surface, and uses a single uncalibrated camera without requiring any physical markers on the projection surface. Furthermore, the scheme is scalable for geometric calibration of multi-projector setups. The efficacy of the proposed scheme is demonstrated using simulations and via practical experiments on various surfaces. A relative distortion error metric is also introduced that provides a quantitative measure of the suppression of geometric distortions, which occurs as the result of an imperfect projection surface.
