<p>An experimental validation of flatness measurement based on image processing technique has been performed.  The purpose of this study is to know the performance of the image processing technique in the flatness measurement. In addition, this technique will be used as development of current measurement technique that is performed manually. The advantage of using this method is that in the future the measurement system will run semi-automatically, so it can increase the capacity. This study is used 3 samples of optical flat with different in diameter (i.e. 25 mm, 45 mm, and 75 mm). The validation has been performed by comparing measurement results of the image processing technique and the manual technique through degree of equivalence evaluation. The error numbers based on the degree of equivalence criteria between the image processing technique and the manual technique for the flatness measurement of 25 mm, 45 mm, and 75 mm are 0.02, 0.09, and 0.11 respectively. According to those error numbers, the image processing technique measurement results is in agreement with the manual technique. Moreover, those results have validated that the image processing technique has good performance and can potentially be implemented to the flatness measurement.</p>

In recent years, the importance of the fracturing test using the full-scale model is recognized in order to upgrade an earthquake resistant design. It is, moreover, important to develop a new measurement method which can measure a complex three-dimensional behavior in such fracturing test. This study has been doing research and development of three-dimensional measurement method using an image processing technique for a measurement of dynamic displacement in shake table test without any contact. This measurement system is a very convenient system because it can measure the three-dimensional dynamic displacement in the simple experimental condition that the several makers are only attached to the surface of an experimental structure. The system therefore is the most suitable measurement system for an evaluation of complex three-dimensional behavior of test model. The fundamental hardware and software for the measurement system has been constructed until now. The fundamental dynamic measurement accuracy and effectiveness of the measurement system has been also confirmed from several shake table tests. This paper describes the measurement results of shake table test using historical wooden structure and actual wooden house model in the largest shake table facilities at E-Defense, and evaluates synthetic measurement performance of the developed measurement system.

The shape and dimensions of a micromixer are key elements in the mixing process. Accurately quantifying the mixing efficiency enables the evaluation of the performance of a micromixer and the selection of the most suitable one for specific applications. In this paper, two methods are investigated to evaluate the mixing efficiency: a numerical model and an experimental model with a software image processing technique. Using two methods to calculate the mixing efficiency, in addition to corroborating the results and increasing their reliability, creates various possible approaches that can be selected depending on the circumstances, resources, amount of data to be processed and processing time. Image processing is an easy-to-implement tool, is applicable to different programming languages, is flexible, and provides a quick response that allows the calculation of the mixing efficiency using a process of filtering of images and quantifying the intensity of the color, which is associated with the percentage of mixing. The results showed high similarity between the two methods, with a difference ranging between 0 and 6% in all the evaluated points.

One of the advantages of scanning electron microscopy is the capability for processing the image contrast, i.e., the image processing technique. Crewe et al were the first to apply this technique to a field emission scanning microscope and show images of individual atoms. They obtained a contrast which depended exclusively on the atomic numbers of specimen elements (Zcontrast), by displaying the images treated with the intensity ratio of elastically scattered to inelastically scattered electrons. The elastic scattering electrons were extracted by a solid detector and inelastic scattering electrons by an energy analyzer. We noted, however, that there is a possibility of the same contrast being obtained only by using an annular-type solid detector consisting of multiple concentric detector elements.
