This paper presents a method for measuring the shaft power of a marine main engine. Usually, in traditional systems for measuring shaft power, a strain gauge is used even though it has several disadvantages. First, it is difficult to set up the strain gauge on the shaft and acquire the correct signal for analysis. Second, it is very expensive and complicated. For these reasons, we investigated alternative approaches for measuring shaft power and proposed a new method that uses a vision-based measurement system. For this study, templates for image processing and CCD cameras were installed at the both ends of the shaft. Then, in order for the cameras to capture the images synchronously, we used a trigger mark and a optical sensor. The position of each template between the first and the second camera images were compared to calculate the torsion angle. The proposed measurement system can be installed more easily than traditional measurement systems and is suitable for any shaft because it does not contact the shaft. With this approach, it is possible to measure the shaft power while a ship is operating.

Errors resulting from magnification variations of optical system are largely generated in three-dimensional shape measurements. In the case of measuring the surface morphology of tiny objects based on DFF, images are acquired with a very small interval and then magnification changes are minimized. However, the magnification variations are actually existed in optical system and so focus measures in DFF are wrongly or ambiguously extracted. in this paper, a methodology based on DFF with the magnification changes is proposed to make more accurate measurement in surface morphology with high depth discontinuity, compared with previous ones. Several experiments show that the proposed method outperforms existing ones without magnification changes.

This paper proposes a surface recognition algorithm which determines the types of contact surfaces by fusing the information collected by the multisensor system, consisted of the optical tactile and force/torque sensors. Since the image shape measured by the optical tactile sensor system, which is used for determining the surface type, varies depending on the forces provided at the measuring moment, the force information measured by the f/t sensor takes an important role. In this paper, an image contour is represented by the long and short axes and they are fuzzified individually by the membership function formulated by observing the variation of the lengths of the long and short axes depending on the provided force. The fuzzified values of the long and short axes are fused using the average Minkowski's distance. Compared to the case where only the contour information is used, the proposed algorithm has shown about 14% of enhancement in the recognition ratio. Especially, when imposing the optimal force determined by the experiments, the recognition ratio has been measured over 91%.

Motion capture systems allow to measure the precise position of markers on the human body in real time. These captured motion data, the marker position data, have to be fitted by a human skeleton model to represent the motion of the human. Typical human skeleton models approximate the joints using a ball joint model. However, because this model cannot represent the human skeleton precisely, errors between the motion data and the movements of the simplified human skeleton model happen. We propose in this paper a method for measuring a translation component of wrist, and elbow joints on upper limb using optical motion capture system. Then we study the errors between the ball joint model and acquired motion data. In addition, we discuss the problem to estimate motion of human joint using optical motion capture system.

The grating projection method with phase-shifting technique is very useful in measuring the 3-dimensional (3D) shape with high accuracy and speed. In this work, we have developed an ultra high-speed digital laser grating projection system using a high-power laser diode and a highsensitivity CMOS camera. With our system, the optical measurement required to find out the profile of a 3D object could be carried out within 2.6 ms, which is a significant ($\sim$10 times) improvement compared with those of the previous studies.

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is well known as a measurement and analysis equipment in nano technology, being widely used as a crucial one in measuring objects or analyzing chemical components. It is equipped with an electron optical system that consists of an electron beam source, electromagnetic lenses, and a detector. The present work concerns numerical analysis for the electron optical system so as to facilitate design of each component. Through the numerical analysis, we investigate trajectories of electron beams emitted from a nano-scale field emission tip, and compare the result with that of experimental observations. Effects of various components such as electromagnetic lenses and an aperture are also discussed.

In-plane ESPI(Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry) was devised to measure in-plane deformations and rotation of a specimen with laser in this study. ESPI is a optical measuring method to be able to measure the deformations of engineering components and materials in industrial fields. The conventional measuring methods of surface deformations such as the strain gauge have many demerits because they are contact and point-to-point measuring ones. But that ESPI is noncontact, nondestructive and whole field measuring method can overcome previous disadvantages. We used ESPI which is sensitive to in-plane displacement for measuring in-plane deformations of a disk. And the 4-frame phase shifting method was used for the quantitative analysis. First of all, the system calibration was done due to an in-plane rotation before getting deformations of a disk. Finally we showed good agreement between the experiment results and those of the FEA(Finite Element Analysis).

In this paper, a magneto-optic modulator has been designed by using single crystal BSO and polycrystal ZnSe as Faraday cells. And practical core-type optical current sensors using pure iron and permalloy have been prepared and experimented. In order to obtain efficient magnetic field detection, LED(NEC OD08358, 0.87 $\mu$m) was used as optical source, PIN-PD(OD-8454)as optical receiver and multi-mode optical fiber (100/140$\mu$m) as transmission line. The characteristics matrix of the optical element was calculated by Stokes parameter, and optic modulation characteristics equations were derived by Muller matrix. Electromagnetic analysis program (FLUX 2D, micro VAX 3600) by finite element method was used to find the magnetic flux density around the core. The measuring error of the output voltage to input current has been masured below 5% in the range of 50A to 1000A. As the temperature was changed from -20$^{\circ}C$ to 60$^{\circ}C$, the maximum measurement error of the optical output has been found to be 0.5% at 60$^{\circ}C$. These experimental results show good temperature and linearity characteristics. The SNR of the overall system was 47dB in case of 600A (250.2 Oe) conductor current and the system has good noise immunity.

일반적으로 왜곡을 측정하는 방법으로 패턴의 전체 이미지를 분석하여 왜곡을 평가하는 방법을 이용하고 있으나 정확도가 높지 않아 카메라 등의 광학계에 많이 적용되고 있다. 1um이하의 정확도를 요구하는 왜곡수차를 측정하는 방법으로는 고가의 정밀 스테이지를 이용하여 마스크의 이미지 위치를 정확히 측정하는 방법이 주로 이용된다. 본 논문에서는 정확도가 요구되지 않는 매뉴얼 스테이지를 이용하여 왜곡을 정확히 측정하는 방법을 연구 하였다. 주요 아이디어로는 CCD나 CMOS를 이용하여 마스크 이미지를 일부 중첩되도록 분할측정하고 인접중첩영역의 이미지를 통합하여 마스크 이미지 위치를 정확히 계산하는 것이다. 마스크 이미지의 정확한 위치정보를 얻기 위해 Canny Edge Detection 기법을 사용하였으며 이렇게 확보된 위치정보로부터 좌표변환과 최소자승법을 사용하여 정확한 왜곡수차를 계산하는 과정을 연구하였다.
