Software is developed according to the design requirements of mathematic model, 6 degree-of-freedom module, aerodynamic module which are resided in real-time computer. and graphic user interface program resided in host computer. The real-time computer consists of six TI C-40 processors connected in parallel. The seeker emulator is designed by using analog circuits coupled with mechanical equipments. The system unit provides interface function to match impedance between the components and processes very small electrical signals. Also real launch unit of missiles is interfaced to simulator through system unit. In order to use the real-time parallel processing simulator developed here as a performance analysis equipment for rolling missiles, we perform verification test through experimental results in the field.

SEBAL (Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land) developed by Bastiaanssen (1995) is an image-processing model comprisedof twenty-five sub models that calculates spatial evapotranspiration (ET) and other energy exchanges at the surface. SEBAL uses image data from Landsat or other satellites measuring thermal infrared radiation, visible and near infrared. In this study, the model was applied to Gyeongancheon watershed, the main tributary of Han river Basin. ET was computed on apixel-by-pixel basis from an energy balance using 4 years (2001-2004) Landsat and MODIS images. The scale effect between Landsat (30 m) and MODIS (1 km) was evaluated. The results both from Landsat and MODIS were compared with FAO Penman-Monteith ET. The absolute errors between satellite ETs and Penman-Monteith ET were within 12%. The spatial and temporal characteristics of ET distribution within the watershed were also analyzed.

For calibration of the non-uniformity characteristics of the space-borne infrared (IR) sensor, a black body system shall provide estimated representative surface temperature at various reference temperatures by using the limited number of temperature sensors. The black body system proposed in this study has an I/F flange integrated on the rear side of the black body for installation of the heat pipe to transfer the residual heat after the black body heat-up. This design allows for obtaining a circular symmetric thermal contour of black body with low surface temperature gradient, leading to much easier representative temperature estimation. Additionally, this provides mechanically stable thermal I/F under launch and on-orbit environmental loads, as well as allowing a fail safe design by using the two heat pipes. Also, a highly accurate temperature estimation is possible even if the temperature sensors are attached on the surface on the rear side of the black body. The effectiveness of the thermal design of the proposed black body has been verified through the on-orbit thermal analysis. Based on the results, the representative surface temperature was estimated according to the number and position of the temperature sensors.

Recently, thermography camera have been using for body-temperature monitoring. We report on fabrication of prototype thermography camera using the chalcogenide-glass lens and the camera test by analysis of thermal image. In this work, it was found out that thermography camera discerned body-temperature between 20 and $50^{\circ}C$ with noise equivalent temperature difference(NETD) of 87.7mK. It is confirmed that thermography camera using the chalcogenide-glass lens is applicable to the body-temperature monitoring system.

Pyroelectric infrared detectors based on La-modified $PbTiO_{3}$ (PLT) thin films have been fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering and rnicrornachining technology. The detectors form $Pb_{l-x}La_{x}Ti_{1-x/4}O_{3}$ (x=0.05) thin film ferroelectric capacitors epitaxially grown by RF magnetron sputtering on Pt/MgO (100) substrate. The sputtered PLT thin film exhibits highly c-axis oriented crystal structure that no poling treatment for sensing applications is required. This is an essential factor to increase the yield for realization of an infrared image sensor. Micromachining technology is used to lower the thermal mass of the detector by giving maximum sensor efficiency. Polymide is coated on top of the sensing elements to support the fragile structure and the backside of the MgO substrate is selectively etched to reduce the heat loss. The sensing element exhibited a very high detectivity D* of $8.5{\times}10^{8}cm{\cdot}\sqrt{Hz}/W$ at room temperature and it is about 100 times higher than the case of micromachining technology is not used. A sensing system that detects the position as well as the existence of a human body is realized using the array sensor.

Lap joint friction stir welding(LFSW) is an relatively new solid state joining process. A6061-T6 aluminium alloy has gathered wide acceptance in the fabrication of light weight structures requiring a high strength to weight ratio and good corrosion resistance. Test methods used in this paper, lock-in thermography, a phase difference between the defect area and the healthy area indicates the qualitative location and size of the defect. In this paper, the defects detected from the thermal image of mechanical properties for weld were evaluated and compared by the lock-in infrared thermography technique.

Objectives Benign essential blepharospasm is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions and spasms of the eyelid muscles. The aim of this study is to provide evidence of differences between facial skin temperaure of the paralyzed side and normal side in Essential Blepharospasm patients. Methods The author studied 13 patients with Essential Blepharospasm. We measured skin temperature of the forehead, zygoma area of the paralyzed side and those of the normal side with The Digital Infrared thermal image. Results There were no significant facial skin temperature differences between the paralyzed side and normal side. Conclusions Thermography is a useful diagnostic tool. But we expect that it is essential to diagnose a disease correctly at an early stage and to find a prompt treatment by introducing and utilizing a simple nonivading diagnofic method other than Thermography.

지난 수 년 동안 계속해서 일반 실상 카메라를 이용한 영상분석기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 최근에는 딥러닝 기술을 적용한 지능형 영상분석기술로 발전해 왔으며 국방기지방호, CCTV, 사용자 얼굴인식, 머신비전, 자동차, 드론 산업이 활성화되면서 많은 시너지를 효과를 일으키고 있다. 그러나 어두운 밤과 안개, 날씨, 연기 등 다양한 여건에서 따라서 카메라의 영상분석 정확성 감소와 오류가 수반될 수 있으며 일반적으로 딥러닝 기술을 활용하기 위해서는 고사양의 GPU를 필요로 하기 때문에 다른 추가적인 시스템이 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 열적외선 영상의 객체 검출에 적용하기 위해 SSD(Single Shot MultiBox Detector) 기반의 경량적인 MobilNet 네트워크로 재구성하여, 모바일 기기 등 낮은 사양의 낮은 임베디드 시스템에서도 활용 할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 모의 실험결과 제안된 방식의 모델은 적외선 열화상 카메라에서 객체검출과 학습시간이 줄어든 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

현재 대부분의 객체 탐지 알고리즘은 RGB 영상을 기반으로 개발되고 있다. 하지만 안개가 끼거나 비가 오는 날 또는 방중에 촬영한 RGB 영상은 흐리거나 잘 보이지 않아 높지 않은 객체 탐지 결과를 보여줄 수 있다. 열 적외선 영상은 열 센서로 인해 만들어지든 영상으로 RGB 영상에 비해 기상조건이나 촬영 시간대에 상관없이 취득 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 RGB 영상과 열 적외선 영상을 기반으로 객체 탐지 알고리즘을 수행하고 각 영상에 따른 객체 탐지 성능을 비교한다. 야간에 취득한 RGB 영상과 열 적외선 영상에 객체 탐지를 수행하였으며, 열 적외선 영상 기반 결과가 RGB 영상 기반일 때 보다 더 높은 정확도를 보여주었다. 추가적으로 밤 시간대의 RGB 영상과 열 적외선 영상을 선정하여 객체 탐지 네트워크를 튜닝하였으며, fine-tuned 네트워크를 이용하여 객체 탐지한 실험 결과 역시 열 적외선 영상이 RGB 영상보다 더 높은 객체 탐지 정확도를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

최근 딥러닝 기술에 발전으로 스마트 시티, 자율주행 자동차, 감시, 사물인터넷 등 다양한 분야에서 활용이 되고 있으며, 이에 따라 기계를 위한 영상 압축에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 열 적외선 영상에서 기계 소비를 위한 객체 기반 압축 기법을 제안한다. 신경망의 객체 탐지 결과와 객체 크기에 따라 이미지를 객체 부분과 배경 부분으로 나누어 서로 다른 압축률로 인/디코딩 한 후, 나눠진 이미지들 다시 하나의 이미지로 합치는 기법을 사용하여 압축하였으며, 이는 압축효율은 높이면서 객체 탐지 성능을 높게 유지한다. 실험 결과, 제안하는 방법이 Pareto mAP에서 BD-rate가 -28.92%로 FLIR anchor 결과와 비교했을 때 압축효율이 뛰어나다는 것을 확인할 수 있다.
