Motion tracking and localization devices are an important building block of motion tracking systems in a virtual reality (VR) environment. This study is about improving the accuracy of motion and location for enhancing user immersion in experience type VR environment to position tracking technique. In this study, we propose and test a design of such a device. The module data test of the attitude and heading reference system shows that the implementation with the MPU-9250 sensor is successful and adequate to be used with short operation time. We consider various sensor hardware dependencies of VR, and compare various correction methods and filtering methods to lower the motion to photon (MTP) time that user movement is fully reflected on the display using sensor devices. The Kalman filter is used to combine the accelerometer with the gyroscope in the sensing unit.

An Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)-based Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) can calculate attitude and heading information with long-term accuracy and stability by combining gyro, accelerometer, and magnetic compass signals. Motivated by this characteristic of the AHRS, this paper presents a Motion-Tracking and Localization (MTL) method for a person or walking robot using multi-AHRSs. Five AHRSs are attached to the two calves, two thighs, and waist of a person/walking robot. Joints, links, and coordinate frames are defined on the body. The outputs of the AHRSs are integrated with link data. In addition, a supporting foot is distinguished from a moving foot. With this information, the locations of the joints on the local coordinate frame are calculated. The experimental results show that the presented MTL method can track the motion of and localize a person/walking robot with long-term accuracy in an infra-less environment.

A magnetic levitation system requires a robustness to overcome a dynamic instability due to disturbances. In this paper a robust controller for a magnetically levitated fine manipulator is presented. The proposed controller consists of following two parts: a model reference controller and an $H_{\infty}$ controller. First, the model reference control stabilizes the motion of the manipulator. Then, the motion of the manipulator follows that of the reference model. Second, the $H_{\infty}$ control minimizes errors generated from the model reference control due to noise and disturbance since the $H_{\infty}$ control is a kind of robust control. The experiments of position control and tracking control are carried out by use of the proposed controller under the conditions of free disturbances and forced disturbances. Also, the experiments using PID controller are carried out under the same conditions. The results from above two controllers are compared to investigate the control performances. As the results, it is observed that the proposed controller has similar position accuracy but better tracking performances comparing to the PID controller as well as good disturbance rejection effect due to the robust characteristics of the controller. In conclusion. it is verified that the proposed controller has the simple control structure, the good tracking performances and good disturbance rejection effect due to the robust characteristics of the controller.

본 논문에서는 무인항공기 영상에서 움직임 예측을 이용한 이동 물체 추적 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 초기모델 생성단계와 이동 물체 추적 단계로 구성되어있으며, 이전 프레임에 비해 이동 거리가 커진 경우에도 안정적으로 추적할 수 있었다. 그리고 무인항공기 카메라의 흔들림에도 효과적으로 추적을 할 수 있었고, 이동 물체의 위치를 정확히 검출하여 추적시간을 단축할 수 있었다. 블록 영상과 참조 영상 간 이동물체의 유사도 판정은 블록 매칭 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 실험을 통해서 기존의 전역탐색 알고리즘보다 향상된 결과를 보여주었다.

A robust controller for a 6 DOF magnetically levitated fine manipulator is presented. The proposed controller consists of following two parts : a model reference controller (MRC) and a H$_{\infty}$ controller (HIC). First, the MRC stabilizes the motion of the manipulator. Then, the motion of the manipulator follows that of the reference model. Second, the HIC minimizes errors generated from the MRC due to noise and disturbance since the HIC is a kind of robust controller. The experiments of position control and tracking control are carried out by use of the proposed controller under the conditions of free disturbances and forced disturbances. Also, the experiments using PID controller are carried out under the same conditions. The results from above two controllers are compared to investigate the control performances.

This paper describes a distance estimation method of object's motion in soccer image sequence by tracking field features. And we quantitatively evaluate the estimation accuracy We suppose that the input image sequence is taken with a camera on static axis and includes only zooming and panning transformation between frames. Adaptive template matching is adopted for non-rigid object tracking. For background compensation, feature templates selected from reference frame image are matched in following frames and the matched feature point pairs are used in computing Affine motion parameters. A perspective displacement field model is used for estimating the real distance between two position on Input Image. To quantitatively evaluate the accuracy of the estimation, we synthesized a 3 dimensional virtual stadium with graphic tools and experimented on the synthesized 2 dimensional image sequences. The experiment shows that the average of the error between the actual moving distance and the estimated distance is 1.84%.

We propose a sliding mode controller tracking the states of a time-varying reference model. The reference model generates the desired trajectories of the states, and the sliding mode controller regulates robustly the errors between the desired states and the measured states. We apply this controller to the overhead crane. Its reference model generates the trajectories of the damped-out swing angle and the swing angular velocity to suppress the swinging motion caused by the acceleration and the deceleration of crane transportation. Also, this model generates the desired trajectories of the position and velocity of the crane. The crane model is identified from the experimental data using an orthogonal function. Kalman filtering is applied to estimate the crane states. The designed controller is simulated on a computer and is tested through a 2-ton industrial overhead crane using the vector-controlled servo motor system. It is verified that, from the simulated and experimental results, the sliding mode controller tracking a time-varying reference model works well.

Background: Mandibular motion tracking system (ManMoS) has been developed for orthognathic surgery. This article aimed to introduce the ManMoS and to examine the accuracy of this system. Methods: Skeletal and dental models are reconstructed in a virtual space from the DICOM data of three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) recording and the STL data of 3D scanning, respectively. The ManMoS uniquely integrates the virtual dento-skeletal model with the real motion of the dental cast mounted on the simulator, using the reference splint. Positional change of the dental cast is tracked by using the 3D motion tracking equipment and reflects on the jaw position of the virtual model in real time, generating the mixed-reality surgical simulation. ManMoS was applied for two clinical cases having a facial asymmetry. In order to assess the accuracy of the ManMoS, the positional change of the lower dental arch was compared between the virtual and real models. Results: With the measurement data of the real lower dental cast as a reference, measurement error for the whole simulation system was less than 0.32 mm. In ManMoS, the skeletal and dental asymmetries were adequately diagnosed in three dimensions. Jaw repositioning was simulated with priority given to the skeletal correction rather than the occlusal correction. In two cases, facial asymmetry was successfully improved while a normal occlusal relationship was reconstructed. Positional change measured in the virtual model did not differ significantly from that in the real model. Conclusions: It was suggested that the accuracy of the ManMoS was good enough for a clinical use. This surgical simulation system appears to meet clinical demands well and is an important facilitator of communication between orthodontists and surgeons.

본 논문에서는 화상회의 영상 데이터에서 화자를 분할하고, 그 움직임을 추적하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 실시간 처리가 가능하도록 화자 분할과 움직임 추적 순으로 처리되는 알고리즘으로 단순화하였다. 분할 한계에서는 차분 방법에 의해 구한 움직임 정보와 영상의 밝기 정보를 사용하여 화자를 분할하였다. 분할된 화자로부터 기준 마스크 영상을 생성하였다. 움직임 추적 단계에서는 움직임 추적에 불필요한 블록들은 제외함으로써 빠르게 움직임을 추적할 수 있는 블록정합 알고리즘을 사용하여 추적하였다. 시뮬레이션에서 여러 시험 영상에 제안한 알고리즘을 적용하여 움직이는 화자를 분할하고, 그 움직임를 추적하는 올바른 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
