Automatic perforation system for korean traditional painting - Dancheong.

Dancheong is designed to decorate various parts of wooden buildings with beautiful and majestic colors. The painting process involves a stage called Cheoncho, where various holes are drilled into the paper to copy distinctive design patterns drawn on the paper in which the design pattern will be applied to a building part. To perform the process of Cheoncho, a craftsman punches holes one by one on the paper with a needle and repeats this action over millions of times. In order to reduce those kinds of time consuming job, we propose a system that automatically performs Cheoncho process to assist a craftsman in copying the desired pattern to the target building part with easy and accurate manner.manner.
