수화의 인식 및 표현 기술에 대한 관련 연구는 수화 인식을 통한 건청인과의 의사 전달, 가상현실에서의 손동작 인식 등을 대상으로 여러 방면으로의 접근 및 연구 결과를 도출하고 있다. 그러나 이들 연구의 대부분 데스크탑 PC기반의 수신호(Hand signal) 제어 및 수화 - 손 동작 인식에 목적을 두었고 수화 신호의 획득을 위하여 영상장비를 이용하였으며 이를 바탕으로 단어 위주의 수화 인식 및 표현에 중점을 둔 수화 인식 시스템의 구현을 통해 비장애인과의 자유로운 의사소통을 추구하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 햅틱 장치로부터 사용자의 의미있는 수화 제스처를 획득하기 위한 접근 방식을 차세대 착용형 PC 플랫폼 기반의 유비쿼터스 환경으로 확대, 적용시켜 제스처 데이터 입력 모듈로부터 새로운 정보의 획득에 있어 한계성을 극복하고 사용자의 편의를 도모할 수 있는 효율적인 데이터 획득 방안을 제시한다. 또한 퍼지 알고리즘 및 RDBMS 모듈을 이용하여 언제, 어디에서나 사용자의 의미 있는 문장형 수화 제스처를 실시간으로 인식하고 표현하는 수화 제스처 인식기를 구현하였다. 본 논문에서는 수화 제스처 입력 모듈(5th Data Glove System과 $Fastrak{\circledR}$)과 차세대 착용형 PC 플랫폼(embedded I.MX21 board)간의 이격거리를 반경 10M의 타원 형태로 구성하고 규정된 위치로 수화 제스처 데이터 입력모듈을 이동시키면서 5인의 피실험자에 대하여 연속적으로 20회의 반복 실험을 수행하였으며 사용자의 동적 제스처 인식 실험결과 92.2% 평균 인식률을 도출하였다.

Recently, economic growth in the world has increased interest in healthy life, and the smart health care industry is growing. In the field of smart healthcare, wearable-type biometric information measurement technology has been highlighted due to the importance of IoT technology. The purpose of this study is to develop a wearable heart - rate monitoring system that can be applied to wearable health care and glove - type monitoring that enables convenient monitoring of heart rate during activity. For this purpose, a glove - type wearable health care system was developed and its performance was evaluated. Experimental results showed that the heartbeat monitoring was possible even in the presence of actual daily activities.

In this paper, we review relevant technologies of Mixed Reality(MR) and show important components of perspective that can overcome technical limitations of the current MR. An MR technology combines real and virtual objects in a real environment, and runs interactive in real time, and is regarded as an emerging technology in a large part of the future of Information Technology(IT). We've grouped the major obstacles limiting the wider use of MR technologies into three themes: technological limitations (i,e., tracking, rendering, authoring, and registration), user interface(UI) limitations(i.e., UI metaphor for MR interaction), and social acceptance issues.

Exchanging personal health information(PHI) is an essential process of healthcare services using information and communication technology. But the process have the inherent risk of information disclosure, so the PHI should be protected to ensure the reliability of healthcare services. In this paper, we designed encryption module for wearable personal health devices(PHD). A main goal is to guarantee that the real-time encoded and transmitted PHI cannot be allowed to be read, revised and utilized without user's permission. To achieve this, encryption algorithms as DES and 3DES were implemented in modules operating in Telos Rev B(16bit RISC, 8Mhz). And the experiments were performed in order to evaluate the performance of encryption and decryption using vital-sign measured by PHD. As experimental results, an block encryption was measured the followings: DES required 1.802 ms and 3DES required 6.683 ms. Also, we verified the interoperability among heterogeneous devices by testing that the encrypted data in Telos could be decoded in other machines without errors. In conclusion, the encryption module is the method that a PHD user is given the powerful right to decide for authority of accessing his PHI, so it is expected to contribute the trusted healthcare service distribution.

Measurement technology related to vocal cord disease is in a late state of technology accumulation, and electroglotograph(EGG) measuring equipment is dependent on foreign production. This paper seeks to design a wearable wireless electrical gate conductivity measurement terminal capable of easily measuring and monitoring the vibration state of the vocal cords, that is, the contact pattern of the vocal cords, which is important in vocalization.

Recently, wearable virtual reality devices are widely used. These instruments include a 3-axis accelerometer. User's heart rate information in virtual reality contents can be useful for measuring user experience. In this paper, we propose a method to measure the heart rate through a 3-axis accelerometer based on the principle of ballistocardiography without additional sensors. The angular velocity was successively measured in a time series by the 3-axis accelerometer mounted to the head. The frequency of the maximum magnitude is determined as the heart rate through frequency transform and band pass filtering of the time series signal. For verification, the heart rate calculated from photoplethysmography sensors acquired at the same time was compared as ground-truth. In the virtual reality, the user's heart rate information can be extracted without additional heart rate sensor, and the emotional state and fatigue can be measured.

This study is about developing an Android application that provides information on customized styling and the app was made to offer assistance in coordinating users' clothing. It keeps the record on clothing items users wore and uses it as coordination information, and prepares styling by referring to user-specific clothing management data. The photos can taken during shopping or can be taken from smart phone gallery, and the images searched through Daum OpenAPI can be saves in the app. Using the saved photos of items and clothes that were previously worn, the app provides styling recommendations.

With development of wearable devices, there is an increased interest in bio-signal monitoring techniques that can measure the user's health condition. However, embedding several bio-signal sensors in one wearable device has some inherent problems in terms of limited resources such as its size. Furthermore, such problem also arise when new bio-signal sensors are added. In this paper, we introduced the Bio-Cradle, which is a Plug-in module that can transfer the biological signals in real time from the accelerometer, ECG, or PPG sensor to other wearable devices at the request from the user of wearable devices. When the Bio-Cradle plugged in to the other device, it can transfer several synchronized bio-signals regardless of the type of device.
