This paper presents a design method for improving the low relative illumination and large distortion due to widening the field of a system. A tele-centric optical system in image space was suggested to increase the relative illumination. Through the analyses of the third-order aberrations affected by introducing aspherical surfaces, we have proposed a method to determine analytically what surface should be aspheric to correct each aberration effectively. By utilizing this method to design a wide field lens, a tele-centric wide field lens with f-number of F/2.0 was obtained. Even though the field angle is 120 degrees, it has a very low distortion less than -2% and high relative illumination more than 73.7%. In conclusion, this analytic method for selecting aspherical surfaces is expected to serve as a useful way to find design solutions.

본 논문은 광각 렌즈를 가지는 CCD 카메라에서 왜곡 보정 시 필요한 샘플화소의 좌표들을 자동으로 추출하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 광각 렌즈를 통하여 획득한 왜곡된 영상에 대하여 노이즈를 제거한 후 에지 영상을 구한다. 그 후, 수평 방향과 수직 방향에 대한 히스토그램을 임계치와 비교하여 왜곡 좌표를 추출한다. 이 방법은 광각 CCD 카메라의 출력물에 직접 적용 할 수 있다. 그 결과 제안한 방법은 수작업으로 인한 번거로운 작업과 부정확한 샘플 좌표로 인한 오류 없이 자동으로 샘플 좌표를 추출하고 보정한 결과 영상을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 렌즈 각과 왜곡 형태에 상관없이 적용 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

The Korean spacecraft for the exploration of Apophis will be equipped with an optical navigation camera with a wide-angle lens. The major purpose of the wide-angle camera is to capture imagery during the rendezvous phase in order to determine the spacecraft's position and the pointing direction relative to the asteroid Apophis. Two potential sciences, however, can be achieved by the wide-angle camera: (1) to measure the high-order gravity terms, and (2) to capture possible ejecting small particles. In this presentation, we will discuss instrument specification and operation scenario required to accomplish the given science objectives.

The paper studies in the wide-angle lens and distortion tendency and employs the correction techniques suitable to the fish-eye lens using the existing photographic survey methods. After carrying out the calibration of the the fish-eye lens, we calculated the correction parameters, and then developed the method that convert the original image-point to new image-point correcting distortion. The objectives of suggested calibration method in this paper are to calibrate the image of the the fish-eye lens used in the computer-vision and the control-instrumentation field widely. The proposed technique expects to improve the accuracy of the image of the fish-eye lens in the indoor tracking and monitoring field. Also the referenced cross point auto-extraction program is embodied for improving efficiency of the lens correction techniques. Consequently, this calibration method would be applied to the automated distorting correction method on not only the fish-eye lens also general lens.

In this paper, a motion-based ROI extraction algorithm from a high resolution fisheye image is proposed for multi-view monitoring systems. Lately fisheye cameras are widely used because of the wide angle-of-view and they basically provide a lens correction functionality as well as various viewing modes. However, since the distortion-free angle of conventional algorithms is quite narrow due to the severe distortion ratio, there are lots of unintentional dead areas and they require much computation time in finding undistorted coordinates. Thus, the proposed algorithm adopts an image decimation and a motion detection methods, that can extract the undistorted ROI image with a standard angle-of-view for the fast and intelligent surveillance system. In addition, a mesh-type ROI is presented to reduce the lens correction time, so that this independent ROI scheme can parallelize and maximize the processor's utilization.

본 논문에서는 광대역에서 광각을 조양할 수 있는 대칭형 구조의 선형 우상배열 송신기용 초고주파 렌즈를 설계하였다. 선형 위상 배열 송신기의 정확한 빔 조향 특성을 얻기 위해 렌즈의 균일한 진폭 전달 특성을 얻는데 중점을 두었다. 빔 포트 8개, 배열 포트 8개로 구성된 초고주파렌즈의 입.출력 포트간 삽입손실의 편차는 $\pm$3.1㏈로써 6~18㎓ 대역에 대해 매우 균일한 특성을 얻었다. 8개로 선형 배열된 안테나를 이용해 방위각 $\pm$60$^{\circ}$의 조향 특성을 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 측정한 렌즈 특성과 다중빔 조향 패턴을 제시하였다.

A lot of research about camera calibration and lens distortion for wide-angle lens has been made. Especially, calibration for fish-eye lens which has 180 degree FOV(field of view) or above is more tricky, so existing research employed a huge calibration pattern or even 3D pattern. And it is important that calibration parameters (such as distortion coefficients) are suitably initialized to get accurate calibration results. It can be achieved by using manufacturer information or lease-square method for relatively narrow FOV(135, 150 degree) lens. In this paper, without any previous manufacturer information, camera calibration and barrel undistortion for fish-eye lens with over 180 degree FOV are achieved by only using one calibration pattern image. We applied QR decomposition for initialization and Regularization for optimization. With the result of experiment, we verified that our algorithm can achieve camera calibration and image undistortion successfully.

Recently, the color separation issue of wide-spreading white LEDs has attracted attention due to their wide applicability as light sources in direct-lit LCD backlights. These wide-spreading LED packages usually consist of LED chips, a color-conversion phosphor layer, and a light-shaping lens. The technical aspect of this color issue was related to a method for balancing the yellow spectral component emitting from phosphors with respect to the blue one from the LED chip as a function of viewing angle. In this study, we suggested an approach for carrying out quantitative analysis for the color separation problem occurring in wide-spreading LED packages by optical simulation. In addition, the effect of an internal scattering layer on the color uniformity was investigated, which may be considered as a potential solution for this problem.
