The Cassegrain telescope consists of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror. In the case of a secondary mirror, it is more difficult to test wavefront error than for a primary mirror, because it reflects the entire testing beam, as it is convex in shape. In this paper we tested the wavefront error of a complex aspheric convex secondary mirror by using the Simpson-Oland-Meckel Hindle test. To separate the systematic errors, such as fabrication error and alignment error of a meniscus lens, we adopted the QN absolute test (pixel-based absolute test using the quasi-Newton method) as well. Finally, we compared the measured result with that of an ASI (Aspheric Stitching Interferometer) made by the QED company, which resulted in an rms difference of only 2.5 nm, showing a similar shape of astigmatism aberration.

Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) is an effective algorithm in object recognition, panorama stitching, and image matching, however, due to its complexity, real time processing is difficult to achieve with software approaches. This paper proposes using a reconfigurable hardware processor with integer half kernel. The integer half kernel Gaussian reduces the Gaussian pyramid complexity in about half [] and the reconfigurable processor carries out a parallel implementation of a full search Fast SIFT algorithm. We use a low memory, fine grain single instruction stream multiple data stream (SIMD) pixel processor that is currently being developed. This implementation fully exposes the available parallelism of the SIFT algorithm process and exploits the processing and I/O capabilities of the processor which results in a system that can perform real time image and video compression. We apply this novel implementation to images and measure the effectiveness. Experimental simulation results indicate that the proposed implementation is capable of real time applications.

Recently, the scope of the smart factory has been expanded, and process research to minimize the part that requires manpower in many processes is increasing. In the case of detecting defects in the appearance of small products, precise verification using a vision system is required. Reliability and speed of inspection are inefficient for human inspection. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for inspecting product appearance defects using a machine vision system. In the case of the remote control targeted in this paper, the appearance is different for each product. Due to the characteristics of the remote control product, the data obtained using two cameras is compared with the master data after denoising and stitching steps are completed. When the algorithm presented in this paper is used, it is possible to detect defects in a shorter time and more accurately compared to the existing human inspection.

The laser transport system of the high power laser facility is mainly composed of large-aperture laser transport mirrors (TMs). Obtaining the high-resolution online damage images during the operation, which is of great significance for operating safely of the mirrors and the facility. Based on wavefront coding, pan-tilt scanning and image stitching technologies, an online laser-damage images detection system is designed, and it can achieve high-precision detection of surface characteristics of large-aperture laser transport mirrors. The preliminary simulation proves that the system can solve the depth of field matching problem caused by pan-tilt tilt imaging and achieve higher resolution.

미국 QED Technologies(이하 QED)가 세계 최초로 상용화한 자기유동유체연마장치(이하 MRF$^{(R)}$-Magnetorheological (Fluid) Finishing)는 역시 QED가 개발한 간섭계 응용장비인 SSI$^{(R)}$(Subaperture stitching interferometer)와 같이 운용하면 1um 이하의 나노광학산업에서 ${\lambda}/10$ 또는 ${\lambda}/100$ 이상 더 정밀한 영역을 손 쉽게 제조할 수 있는 획기적인 공정을 가능하게 한다. 이러한 능력 때문에 미국, 유럽 및 일본 등의 첨단광학회사들은 96년 상업화된 이후 MRF$^{(R)}$와 SSI$^{(R)}$ 공정을 앞다투어 도입하며 기존공정이 지니고 있던 많은 한계들을 극복했다. 우리나라의 MRF와 SSI의 도입은 선진국에 비해 10년 이상 늦어진 2008년에 이르러서야 최초의 장비가 도입되었으며 이후 꾸준히 그 응용분야가 확장되어 가고 있다. 2012년에는 한국천문연구원과 그린광학에 SSI의 최신장비인 ASI(Aspheric Stitching Interferometer)와 MRF가 각각 도입됐다. 이를 계기로 해서 한국사무소에서 제안을 하여 QED사의 총괄대표이사인 Dr. Andrew Kulawiec, 응용기술부장인 Paul Dumas, QED 한국사무소의 오한석 박사와 신지식 박사가 그간의 기술동향을 발표하는 기술강연회가 지난 2012년 10월 23일 개최되었다. 한국천문연구원, 그린광학과 한국광학기기산업협회의 후원으로 한국천문연구원 은하수홀에서 개최된 이번 강연회에서는 다음과 같은 세가지 주제를 다루었다. 1. MRF의 원리 및 응용분야의 현황과 장비개발 현황 2. SSI의 원리 및 응용분야의 현황과 장비개발 현황 3. 광학설계와 가공실현성에 도움이 되는 비구면을 표현하는 새로운 식 Q-Polynominal 이번 강연회는 특히 QED의 공정 및 장비개발자들이 직접 참가한 기술강연회로 지난 2004년 및 2008년에 열린 기술강연회와 차별화되며, 25개 업체 약 50여 명이 참석하여 성황리에 마무리되었다. 향후 국내의 사용자 그룹에 대한 세미나를 정기적으로 개최해 QED의 첨단광학기술에 대한 정보교환의 장을 확대할 예정이며, 기술강연회도 가능한 한 정기화할 예정이다. 이번 강연회의 주제 중 우선 MRF와 SSI에 대한 논의를 광학세계 1월호에 소개하고자 한다.

Du-Dou was one of the Chinese costumes worn mostly by women and children. It is the equivalence of modern brassieres or under wear. While small in size, du-dous were popularly worn by many ethnic groups and in many regions in China. The embroidery on du-dous has attracted major attention recently, due to its functional and artistic aspects. The design, floral pattern, stitching technique, and color combination and distribution clearly demonstrate the practice of Chinese folk art and reflect the essence of Chinese life style. Among the three major ethic groups of Taiwan-the Fukiens, Hakkas, and Taiwan aboriginals, each group has its distinctive du-dou. The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the similarities and differences of the embroidery on du-dou among the three ethnic groups in Taiwan, and furthermore, to make recommendations for the modern du-dous in the fashion industry.

Future Mobile displays and the emerging systems on Glass for the upcoming TFT_LCDs or Active-OLEDs based on LTPS, and the exciting c-Si critically require very-high resolution lithography. We report the methodology and latest results on the alignment, magnification control and stitching systems on a HMA500 holographic mask aligner for printing $0.5{\mu}m-resolution$ display patterns onto glass substrates of dimensions up to $500mm{\times}400mm$.

The scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) is an effective algorithm used in object recognition, panorama stitching, and image matching. However, due to its complexity, real-time processing is difficult to achieve with current software approaches. The increasing availability of parallel computers makes parallelizing these tasks an attractive approach. This paper proposes a novel parallel approach for SIFT algorithm implementation using a block filtering technique in a Gaussian convolution process on the SIMD Pixel Processor. This implementation fully exposes the available parallelism of the SIFT algorithm process and exploits the processing and input/output capabilities of the processor, which results in a system that can perform real-time image and video compression. We apply this implementation to images and measure the effectiveness of such an approach. Experimental simulation results indicate that the proposed method is capable of real-time applications, and the result of our parallel approach is outstanding in terms of the processing performance.

Virtual reality is being increasingly used for healing and therapy for mental health. In this study, we developed VR-based immersive content that enables virtual travel without the limitations of time and physical conditions. We aim to develop and produce VR content for relaxation and meditation using the beautiful natural scenery. To make realistic and immersive content, we took a video of natural sceneries with a small UAV connected to a VR camera. The content was developed through stitching, video editing and post-processing of the initially captured video data, and then the created VR video was inserted into the VR device. The produced content will be helpful for stress and used to heal the mind and body of exhausted modern people by providing the place with great scenery and sound in an immersive way at any time.
