Objective : This paper aimed to measure the relationship between the performance of Korean handwriting and visual fixation for children. Methods : Twenty-one typically developing children aged 7 to 9 years participated in the study. The children performed Korean handwriting task wearing Tobii Pro Glasses 2. The Korean handwriting task consisted of 10 words from elementary school textbooks. The handwriting skill was measured by the coefficient variation of the letter size and the fixation cound and duration. Correlation analysis was performed to investigate the relation between visual fixation and the coefficient variation of the letter size. Results : The results showed that the visual fixation per second was positively correlated with Korean handwriting vertical size coefficient variation, indicating that the more consistent the vertical size of the letter, the smaller the fixation count per second. Conclusion : The results suggested a relation between the performance of Korean handwriting and visual fixation in typically developing children. This study is the first attempt to measure eye movement during the Korean handwriting process, and suggests a future direction for research on students' development in writing Korean.

This study was to examine how visual angle of matrix corresponding to the physical properties of P300 speller and eye gaze corresponding to the user's personal characteristics influence on the accuracy of P300. Visual angle of the matrix was operated as the distance between the user and the matrix and three groups were composed: 60 cm group, 100 cm groups, and 150 cm group. Eye gaze methods was consisted three conditions. Head moving condition was putting eye gaze using head, pupil moving condition was moving pupil with the head fixed, while the eye fixed condition is to fix the eye gaze at the center of the matrix. The results showed that there was significant difference in the accuracy of P300 speller according to the eye gaze method. The accuracy of the head moving condition was higher than the accuracy of pupil moving conditions, accuracy of pupil moving conditions was higher than the accuracy of the eye fixed conditions. However, the effect of visual angle of matrix and interaction effect were not significant. When P300 amplitude of target character was measured depending on how you stare at the target character, P300 amplitude of the head moving condition was greater than P300 amplitude of the pupil moving condition. There was no significant difference in the error distribution in head moving condition and pupil moving condition, while there was a significant difference between two eye gaze conditions and fixed gaze condition. The error was located at the neighboring characters of the target character in head moving condition and pupil moving condition, while the error was relatively distributed widely in fixed eye condition, error was occurred with high rate in characters far away from the center of matrix.

To steer a camera is done based on system parameters of the vision system. However, the system parameters when they are used might be different from those when they were measured. As one method to compensate for this problem, this research proposes a gaze-steering method based on LMI(Linear Matrix Inequality) that is robust to variations in the system parameters of the vision system. Simulation results show that the proposed method produces less gaze-tracking error than a contemporary linear method and more stable gaze-tracking error than a contemporary nonlinear method. Moreover, the proposed method is fast enough for realtime processing.

The present work was performed to find behavioral characteristics of elementary school students corresponding to the motivation system on science learning (SL-BIS/BAS; Behavioral Inhibition/Activation System about Science Learning) in the observation situation. Eye-tracking was used for this study, which is one of the neurophysiological methods. The findings of present study were as follows: First, students who have sensitive motivation system to SL-BIS (SL-BIS group) showed meaningfully shorter fixation duration the whole time during an observation task than students who have sensitive motivation system to SL-BAS (SL-BAS group) (p<.05). Total fixation counts of SL-BIS group were significantly larger than SL-BAS group and it indicates that SL-BIS group often generated new fixations. Therefore, fixation duration per count of SL-BAS group was longer than that of SLBIS group. Second, we studied fixations in situations with movement corresponding to the motivation system on science learning. SL-BIS group and SL-BAS group exhibited similar fixation duration in the study task segment with movement, which is one of the stimulus attracting students. However, for the study task segment when the movement was finished, total fixation duration and fixation duration per count of SL-BAS group were meaningfully longer than those of SL-BIS group. Third, comparing fixation targets classified by factors of study task, SL-BIS group showed fixation on the target that is not important for the study task. But SL-BAS group concentrated on the target-related factor of the study task. The present work could be helpful in understanding students' characteristics corresponding to the motivation system on science learning in observation situation and for making a learning & teaching plan that is suitable to the feature of students.

A typical theme of active vision systems is gaze-fixing of a camera. Here gaze-fixing of a camera means by steering orientation of a camera so that a given point on the object is always at the center of the image. For this we need to combine a function to analyze image data and a function to control orientation of a camera. This paper presents an algorithm for gaze-fixing of a camera where image analysis and orientation control are designed in a frame. At this time, for avoiding difficulties in implementing and aiming for real-time applications we design the algorithm to be a simple closed-form without using my information related to calibration of the camera or structure estimation.

한글의 가로쓰기와 세로쓰기 체계의 상대적 효율성을, 글을 읽을 때 관찰되는 시선 이동을 측정하여 비교하였다. 실험 1에서는 동일한 글을 가로와 세로 방향으로 제시하고, 글을 읽는 동안 시선 운동(머리 운동과 안구 운동의 합)을 공막탐지코일법(scleral search coil method)으로 측정하였다. 가로글 읽기의 경우, 시선도약(saccade)의 크기가 더 컸으며, 동일한 크기의 도약운동을 비교할 때, 세로글 읽기에 비해 상대적으로 도약운동의 속도가 높았다. 평균 고정기간(fixation duration)은 글의 읽기 방향에 따른 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 시선 도약크기와 도약운동 속도에서의 차이는 가로글을 읽는 속도를 높여 글을 읽는 시선 이동의 효율성이 가로글에서 상대적으로 높았다. 실험 2에서는 팔의 읽기 방향에 따른 시선 이동 변수에서의 차이가 글자극의 독특한 자극 특성에 기인한 것인지 혹은 시각 및 안구 운동 체계에서의 차이를 반영하는 것인지를 결정하고자 하였는데, 의미정보가 없는 점자극을 수평과 수직방향으로 제시하고, 방향에 따른 시선 이동의 차이가 글자극을 사용한 경우와 동일하게 나타나는지를 보았다. 점자극에서도 수평 방향의 시선도 약 운동이 보다 크고 정확한 경향성이 있었다. 이 결과는 사람의 시각 운동 체계가 수평 방향의 시선 이동에 대해 선호성을 보이고 있으며, 이러한 시각 및 안구 운동 체계에서의 차이가 글을 읽는 행동에도 반영되고 있음을 보여준다.

Visual perception information acquired through human eyes contains much information on how to view visual stimuli using eye tracking technology, it is possible to acquire and analyze consumer visual information as quantitative data. These measurements can be used to measure emotions that customers feel unconsciously, and they can be directly collected by numerically quantifying the character's search response through eye tracking. In this study, we traced the character's area of interest (AOI) and found that the average of fixation duration, count, average of visit duration, count, and finally the time to first fixation was analyzed. As a result of analysis, it was found that there were many cognitive processing processes on the face than the character's body, and the visual attention was high. The visual attention of attraction factor has also been able to verify that attraction is being presented as an important factor in determining preferences for characters. Based on the results of this study, further studies of more characters will be conducted and quantitative interpretation methods can be used as basic data for character development and factors to be considered in determining character design.

시선 위치 추적이란 사용자가 모니터 상의 어느 지점을 쳐다보고 있는 지를 파악해 내는 기술이다. 시선 위치를 파악하기 위해 본 논문에서는 2차원 카메라 영상으로부터 얼굴 영역 및 얼굴 특징점을 추출한다. 초기에 모니터상의 3 지점을 쳐다볼 때 얼굴 특징점들은 움직임의 변화를 나타내며, 이로부터 카메라 보정 및 매개변수 추정 방법을 이용하여 얼굴특징점의 3차원 위치를 추정한다. 이후 사용자가 모니터 상의 또 다른 지점을 쳐다볼 때 얼굴 특징점의 변화된 3차원 위치는 3차원 움직임 추정방법 및 아핀변환을 이용하여 구해낸다. 이로부터 변화된 얼굴 특징점 및 이러한 얼굴 특징점으로 구성된 얼굴평면이 구해지며, 이러한 평면의 법선으로부터 모니터 상의 시선위치를 구할 수 있다. 실험 결과 19인치 모니터를 사용하여 모니터와 사용자까지의 거리를 50∼70cm정도 유지하였을 때 약 2.08인치의 시선위치에러 성능을 얻었다. 이 결과는 Rikert의 논문에서 나타낸 시선위치추적 성능(5.08cm 에러)과 비슷한 결과를 나타낸다. 그러나 Rikert의 방법은 모니터와 사용자 얼굴까지의 거리는 항상 고정시켜야 한다는 단점이 있으며, 얼굴의 자연스러운 움직임(회전 및 이동)이 발생하는 경우 시선위치추적 에러가 증가되는 문제점이 있다. 동시에 그들의 방법은 사용자 얼굴의 뒤 배경에 복잡한 물체가 없는 것으로 제한조건을 두고 있으며 처리 시간이 상당히 오래 걸리는 문제점이 있다. 그러나 본 논문에서 제안하는 시선 위치 추적 방법은 배경이 복잡한 사무실 환경에서도 사용가능하며, 약 3초 이내의 처리 시간(200MHz Pentium PC)이 소요됨을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 실내의 고정된 단일 칼라 카메라에서 획득된 비디오 스트림으로부터 사람의 행동을 인식하기 위한 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 사람의 시공간적 상태 변화와 사람의 시선 방향을 이용하여 규칙기반으로 행동을 인식한다. 사람의 의미 있는 상태변화를 이벤트로, 이벤트의 시퀀스 즉, 사람의 행동을 시나리오로 정의하였다. 따라서 입력비디오 스트림에서 사람의 상태변화로 이벤트를 검출하고, 검출된 이벤트의 시퀀스로 사람의 행동을 인식한다. 사람의 시선은 얼굴과 머리 영역의 색정보를 이용한 시선 방향 추정 방법으로 찾아지며, 사람의 상태 변화는 사람의 위치와 키 등을 이용하여 검출된다. 본 시스템은 실내 환경에서 획득한 비디오에서 실험하였으며, 실험결과 시선 방향에 의해 서로 다른 행동을 구분하여 인식할 수 있었다.
