Purpose: The ratio of the visually impaired is gradually increasing due to various causes such as natural aging, accidents, and environmental changes. Therefore, this study has two folds. Firstly, it aims to analyze the current satisfaction level with information facilities for the visually impaired. Secondly, it aims to examine the factors affecting the satisfaction with indoor information facilities. Through this study, it helps to identify problems of information facilities for the visually impaired and it works as a practical data for further improvements. Methods: For 50 visually impaired people, a telephone survey was conducted on the satisfaction with the braille blocks, braille signboards, braille information boards with tactile map, audio guide devices, and safety egress devices. Microsoft Excel and SPSS 26.0 were used for the analysis. Results: It was confirmed that the overall satisfaction with the indoor information facilities was very low. The more the visually impaired people recognized the installation standards, and the better the maintenance was, the higher the satisfaction. In the case of braille blocks and braille signboards, the effect of information transfer on satisfaction was relatively high. In the case of audio guide device and safety egress device, the standard suitability influenced satisfaction. Implications: The low level of satisfaction with the overall information facilities can impede visually impaired people from receiving practical help through the information facilities. Factors influencing the satisfaction level of each facility were identified, which makes it possible to prepare effective improvement measures.

Carbonated drinks are a kind of drink that is popular in our daily lives and are sold mainly among young people. There are many brands of carbonated drinks currently on sale, and most of them emphasize the distinction of texture, and brand images and packages have further commercialized package design as a whole. It is necessary to increase the emotional experience of soda package design, which can increase the added value of the brand. Sensibility is the most common psychological experience in humans and is the subjective experience and feeling of things. By combining the emotional experience with the package design of carbonated drinks, it provides more emotional user experience while purchasing carbonated drinks, realizing diversification of product package designs and satisfying consumers' emotional needs. This paper first examines the package design of carbonated drinks, I hope it will be an implication if you increase the emotional experience of soda package design.

This study suggests multisensory interaction techniques to help visually impaired people appreciate and understand artworks through non-visual senses such as tactile, auditory, and olfactory senses. A user study was conducted on the basis of a qualitative interview about the experience of appreciating artwork through the multisensory interaction system to visually impaired people so as to verify the development of the interaction techniques. The user test shows that the multisensory interactions in artwork generally not only help them appreciate and understand it but also give them satisfaction through artwork appreciation. However, it also indicates that some multisensory interactions caused the visually impaired people confusion and could not be perceived during the appreciation. On the basis of these outcomes, implications in this study are as follows. This study has contributed to providing specific development guidelines and indicators of non-visual multisensory interactions as a technical alternative to improve accessibility to cultural and artistic activities for the visually impaired. Furthermore, this study is expected to contribute to building a technical background, which can provide comprehensive sensory experiences with not only blind people but also non-blind people such as children and the elderly through universal interaction techniques beyond existing visual-oriented fragmentary experience.

This study investigated the impacts of the experience attributes of JJALBANG broadcast images on satisfaction with 221 viewers in their 20s and analyzed the mediation effect of flow. The results are: First, their experience attributes affected flow, not directly affecting satisfaction while flow directly affected satisfaction. Second, securing flow was an important predictor for connecting experience attributes to satisfaction through the effect resolution. Flow alone can predict satisfaction, so its impact on experience is very important. Visual attribute had the greatest influence on flow and satisfaction, followed by situation, information, and interaction, which affected satisfaction through flow. This study found the importance of full mediation effect of flow and got implications for effectively providing experience and flow in strategies for viewing JJALBANG.

Building Information Modeling technology (BIM) is one of the most effective solutions to deal with the trend that buildings are getting more and more complicated, large-scaled, and multiple-purposed. BIM in the construction industry is increasingly adopted since the Korea Public Procurement Service announced that BIM would be obligated in a construction project whose total cost is over 50 billion won from 2012. This fact has boosted BIM related research projects as well. However, the majority of the studies have been focusing on the solutions with technological points of view and there has been lack of research on how much degree project stakeholders are satisfied with the BIM adoption in their projects. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate the current status and satisfaction degree of stakeholders in a synthesized point of view in BIM-based projects in order to identify critical factors and weak points in the BIM adoption process. The results of this study would greatly help to improve the strategies and processes in BIM-based projects as well as to increase the satisfaction degree of BIM utilization in a project.

It is anticipated that, in cases in which different train operators share railway network, conflicts may occur among train operators with regard to train operation rate, train priorities, and arrival and departure time; besides this, during times when there is high demand for trains, operators will request train operations intensively, steadily increasing train conflict phenomena. In the present study, train operation sequence, minimum headway, arrival and departure time, train priorities, etc., were analyzed, and while using train departure times as decision variables in variably given train schedules, by adjusting train time requested by train operators, and finally rejecting the train times in cases in which conflict resolution is impossible, so that various constraints can be satisfied, a train slot allocation model was suggested to find the objective function, that is, the maximum number of train slots that can be practically applicable to railway operation.

A lot of image quality assessment metrics that can precisely reflect the human visual system (HVS) have previously been researched. The Structural SIMilarity (SSIM) index is a remarkable HVS-aware metric that utilizes structural information, since the HVS is sensitive to the overall structure of an image. However, SSIM fails to deal with color difference in terms of the HVS. In order to solve this problem, the Structural and Hue SIMilarity (SHSIM) index has been selected with the Hue, Saturation, Intensity (HSI) model as a color space, but it cannot reflect the HVS-aware color difference between two color images. In this paper, we propose a new image quality assessment method for a color image by using a CIE Lab color space. In addition, by using a support vector machine (SVM) classifier, we also propose an optimization system for applying optimal metric according to the types of distortion. To evaluate the proposed index, a LIVE database, which is the most well-known in the area of image quality assessment, is employed and four criteria are used. Experimental results show that the proposed index is more consistent with the other methods.

The white stick mainly used for visually impaired person has difficulty in providing location information and effective countermeasures for emergency situations encountered during walking as well as detecting floating obstacles on the ground. In this paper, we propose a machine-to-machine based intelligent walking assistance system for safe and convenient walking of the visually impaired. The proposed system consists of a walking assistance stick used by the visually impaired and a server supporting multiple stick users in remote places through mobile communication networks. The stick equipped with ultrasonic sensors, GPS(global positioning system) receiver and vibrator not only detects floating obstacles, but also offers stick users with present location identification utilizing a text-to-voice conversion technology. Besides providing geographic information, the server notifies the emergency locations of users to guardian and aid agency, and it provides log information during walking such as the place, time and the number of accidents. Test results with a developed prototype system have shown that the system properly performs the functions and satisfies overall system performance.
