This study analyzed problems of interpretive signs along Eorimok-Yeongsil Trail on Mt. Hallasan National Park, focusing on factors of distracting visitor's attention from reading and understanding the signs. Eorimok-Yeongsil Trail has a total of 86 signs, and according to their purpose and content, they are classified into thirteen general signs, sixteen location signs, nine safety signs and forty-eight interpretive signs. Interpretive signs provide visitors with information and explanations about the nature and human resources of Mt. Hallasan as well as enhancing the opportunity for self-guided interpretation. The contents of interpretive signs of Eorimok-Yeongsil Trail are composed of landscapes, flora and fauna, topography, geology, history and culture, of which 70.8% of the total are related to plants and animals. Interpretive signs on the Eorimok-Yeongsil Trail do not attract visitors' attention because of the low readability, inappropriate locations and frequent errors in translation from Korean into other languages. The causes of low readability of interpretive signs include thirty-six physically damaged and faded signs, twenty-two improper font sizes and misuse of color schemes and five unclear description signs. The reasons for the incorrect locations include twenty-two long distances from the trails, twenty-one inadequate heights and fifteen inconsistencies in descriptions and locations. Problems with English use include eight grammar and spelling errors, twenty-one incorrect translations, and twenty-six English names missing.

표지판이나 지도, 안내책자 같은 매체들은 사용자에게 여러 정보(위치정보, 부가정보)를 제공한다. 이런 매체를 통한 위치정보와 부가정보는 직관적이고 간결하며 정적으로 표현되어 있다. 그리고 정보제공의 형태를 보면 사용자가 정보를 취득해 가야 하는 점에서 수동적으로 볼 수 있다. 하지만 사용자는 정보 욕구가 증가할수록 정적인 정보보다는 동적인 정보를 요구하고, 수동적인 정보제공 방법보다는 능동적인 정보제공 방법을 선호한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 정보보조시스템(IAS)은 기존의 IAS 시스템과 달리, 직관적이고 간결한 정보 전달의 수단으로 증강현실 기술을 사용하고, 능동적 정보제공의 방법으로 에이전트 시스템을 사용한다. 실제 구현 과정에서 성능 향상을 위한 아이디어를 추가하여, 제안하는 방법들의 효용성을 검증한다.

종이로 된 문서를 디지털 데이터로 저장하기 위해서 스캐너가 주로 쓰인다. 그러나 스캐너의 경우 대상 문서의 크기와 장소에 대한 제약이 크다. 그래서 거대한 포스터나 안내 표지판 등을 저장하고 싶을 때 스캐너를 대신하여 디지털 카메라를 이용해 대상의 정보를 기록할 수 있다. 디지털 카메라를 이용하면 대상문서에 기기를 접촉시키지 않고도 문서의 내용을 저장할 수 있고 휴대가 간편하기 때문에 편리하게 문서를 저장할 수 있다. 그러나 손에 들고 찍는 디지털 카메라의 특성상 이미지가 카메라에 대해 완전한 수평으로 찍히기는 어렵고 대상과 카메라 사이에 원하지 않는 객체가 문서를 가릴 수 도 있다. 그래서 우리는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 문서에 특화된 문서 저장 시스템을 제안하고자 한다.

As our country holds 2002 Korea-Japan FIFA World Cup, more foreigners are visiting Korea, making the tourist industry more profitable. Under these circumstances, we should pay attention to the restroom as a public facility, and inspire the awareness in the Korean people to improve the public restrooms. However, according to KNTO(Korea National Tourist Organization), it has turned out that foreign tourists are still dissatisfied with dirty restrooms and poor signposting when they visit Korea, Though the number of restrooms has been increased, they are not properly managed being a public nuisance due to negligence of administration and straggling facilities. To make it worse, poor design of restrooms and insufficient consideration of handicapped person bring disgrace on Koreas tourist administration. While studies on restrooms began from the 1980s, it has placed too much emphasis on the space arrangement and facility plan, so we need to pay attention to the traditional design and environment aspect of restrooms. This study is 1 haute looked into the problems and actual conditions of restrooms, and based on these data, applied Korean Buddhist architecture style to restrooms to create a comfortable circumstance in restrooms.

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.
