Ortho projection and drawing for archeological artifacts using CCD Camera.

ALIGNMENT METHOD for 50m DISTANCE USING LASER and CCD CAMERA

SPring8 storage ring is 8GeV synchrotron radiation source, which circumference is 1436m with 48 double-bend achromatic cells. This ring has also four long straight sections. Before modification three girders were put as other section. A long undulator (27m) was installed at one straight section and three free spaces were made at other sections in the summer of 2000 as shown in Fig.1. This modif...

Methods for CCD Camera Characterization

In this paper we present methods for characterizing CCD cameras. Interesting properties are linearity of photometric response, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), sensitivity, dark current and spatial frequency response (SFR). The techniques to characterize CCD cameras are carefully designed to assist one in selecting a camera to solve a certain problem. The methods described were applied to a variety...

Intelligent Surveillance Using an Omnidirectional CCD Camera

Video surveillance, object tracking and activity monitoring are some of the important issues for a homecare robotic system. In this work, an omnidirectional video camera is adopted to provide a 360 degree view angle of the indoor scene in a single image. Some basic functions for smart living and elderly care, such as motion detection, object tracking and target behavior analysis, are implemente...

Kinetic PCR Analysis Using a CCD-camera

CCD Camera Gain Measurement

The gain of a CCD camera is the conversion between the number of electrons ("e-") recorded by the CCD and the number of digital units ("counts") contained in the CCD image. It is useful to know this conversion for evaluating the performance of the CCD camera. Since quantities in the CCD image can only be measured in units of counts, knowing the gain permits the calculation of quantities such as...
