사용자-제품 상호작용(User-product interaction)의 관점에서 사용자의 만족도는 제품의 사용편의성(Usability)과 감성품질에 의해서 결정된다. 특히, 물리적으로 사용자와 제품의 기능을 연결하는 PUI(Physical User Interface)의 감성품질은 시각뿐 아니라 촉감, 동작감, 청감 등의 사용자의 다양한 감성의 조합으로 이루어져 있다. 문헌조사에 의하면, 사용자의 감성 만족도를 향상시키기 위한 제품의 시각적 감성품질에 관련된 연구는 활발하게 진행되고 있으나, 촉감, 동작감, 청감 등의 감성품질에 관련된 연구는 상대적으로 미흡한 실정이다. 이러한 관점에서 제품의 전체적인 감성품질을 평가하기 위해서는 제품과 사용자가 상호작용하는 PUI의 전반에 대한 사용자 만족도(User Satisfaction)의 정량적인 평가가 필수적이며, PUI의 감성품질을 구성하는 시각에 대한 고려뿐만 아니라, 예를 들어 조작장치를 잡는 느낌, 조작장치가 움직일 때의 동작감, 조작장치 작동 시의 청감 등 사용자와 조작장치 간에 일어나는 상호작용 전반에 관한 연구가 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 PUI의 구성요소 중 동적인 조작장치의 촉감, 동작감, 청감에 대하여 문헌 조사를 통해 조작 장치의 감성을 구성하는 요소들을 체계적으로 파악하였고, 감성의 요소를 중복 설명하지 않는 상호독립적인 의미를 가진 감성 형용사를 수집하고 분류한 후, 추출한 형용사를 기초로 설문지를 작성하였으며, 사용자들의 설문을 통하여 자료를 수집하였다. 구조방정식 기법을 사용하여, 조작장치의 전체적인 사용자 만족도와 촉감, 동작감, 청감 간의 상관관계 모형을 수립하였다. 또한 구조방정식의 결과를 바탕으로 인간공학 전문가와 제품설계 전문가로 이루어진 FGI(Focus Group Interview)를 실시하여 잡는 느낌, 동작감, 청감과 관련된 조작장치의 적절한 설계 변수를 결정한 후 설계값을 측정하였으며 감성 만족도와 측정치 간의 상관관계를 분석하여 감성품질 요소의 정량화를 수행하였다. 본 연구결과는 실제 산업현장에서 제품개발자들이 사용자 만족도에 영향을 미치는 제품 설계요소들의 상대적인 중요도를 평가하고, 감성품질을 결정하는 설계특성값을 구체적으로 파악하는데 실질적인 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

This study determines the differences between Korean female university students and their Chinese counterparts residing in Korea by evaluating the subjective sensation and tactile preference in fabrics for casual shirts. Seven types of white causal shirt fabrics were selected as specimens from those available in spring and autumn shirt collection. The fabrics were made from various fibers (cotton 100%, polyester 100%, flax 100%, polyester 80%/cotton 20%, polyester 65%/cotton 35%, polyester 50%/cotton 45%/spandex 5%, and polyester 50%/modal 50%). Forty Korean and Chinese female university students subjectively assessed the subjective sensation of fabrics used for casual shirts. Participants were asked to observe the seven types of fabrics and complete the questionnaire. The subjective sensation to be assessed for white casual shirt fabrics was classified into the following four factors: smoothness, lightness, softness, and stretchiness. Subjective sensation factors showed partially significant differences by nationality. Korean female students evaluated cotton fabric as being light, whereas their Chinese counterparts evaluated the polyester/cotton/spandex blended fabric as light. Korean female students evaluated polyester/modal blended fabric as being stretchable. The tactile preference for fiber composition of the fabrics showed partially significant differences by nationality. Korean female students preferred cotton 80%/polyester 20% blended fabric, polyester 50%/cotton 45%/spandex 5% blended fabric, and flax 100% fabric. The subjective sensation of the fabrics had different effects on preferences by nationality. Smoothness and softness had positive effects on preferences for the fabrics of Korean students. However, smoothness, softness, and stretchiness had positive effects on the preferences of Chinese students. The subjective sensation and tactile preference for casual shirt fabrics showed a difference between Korean female students and their Chinese counterparts. Therefore, when planning casual shirt fabrics for female university students, it is necessary to reflect on these differences in subjective sensation and tactile preference.

가상환경 또는 실제환경에서 정보를 제공하는 햅틱 인터페이스의 필요성이 점점 증가 함에 따라 촉감을 제공 하기 위한 다양한 햅틱 장치가 개발되었고 각 장치의 특성과 성능 평가를 위해 기초적인 정신(심리) 물리학적 연구가 수행 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 여러 가지 햅틱 인터페이스 중 손가락 끝에 부착하는 형태의 새로운 공기 촉감 제시장치(PTI: Pneumatic Tactile Interface)를 제시하고 이 장치의 유용성을 입증하기 위해 localization rate, 시간 분해능, 길이 분해능, 강도의 세기 등의 심리 물리학적 실험(Psychophysical Experiment) 수행 결과를 제시한다. 공기촉감 시스템은 50개의 출력까지 확장 가능한 공기촉감 하드웨어로 구성 되어있고 손가락 끝에 부착하는 형태로 구성 하기 위해 5*5의 배열의 디스플레이를 제작하였다. 16명의 피실험자가 A, B 두 그룹으로 나뉘어 각각 2가지의 심리물리학 실험을 수행하였다. localization rate의 경우 9개의 다른 자극의 위치를 구별하기 위해 3*3 배열로 구성된 밀집된 디스플레이와 확장된 디스플레이로 측정을 수행하여 각각 58.13%, 85.9%의 localization rate를 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 100번의 반복 실험을 통해 약 2.6mm의 길이 분해능을 얻을 수 있었고 자극 강도 실험의 경우, 실제의 강도가 세짐에 따라 피 실험 자들이 느끼는 강도의 척도도 증가 하며, 강도가 약해 질수록 피 실험 자들이 느끼는 강도 역시 거의 선형적으로 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 시간 분해능의 경우에는 시스템을 구성하는 밸브의 성능으로 인해 20ms 이하의 시간 분해능 측정은 제한 되었다. 이러한 심리 물리학 실험을 통하여 개발된 공기촉감 제시장치가 다양한 정보를 전달하는데 충분하다는 결론을 내릴 수 있으며, 제안된 시스템을 사용하는 여러 가지 어플리케이션을 제시하였다.

Tactile displays can provide useful information without disturbing others and are particularly useful for people with visual or auditory impairments. They can also complement other displays. In this paper, we present a new vibrotactile display device for wearable, mobile, and ubiquitous computing environments. The proposed vibrotactile device has a $5{\times}5$ array configuration for displaying complex information such as letters, numbers, and haptic patterns as well as simple directional ques and situation awareness alarms. Commercially available coin-type vibration motors are embedded vertically in flexible mounting pads in order to best localize vibrations on the skin. An embedded microprocessor controls the motors sequentially with an advanced tracing mode to increase recognition rate. User studies with the vibrotactile device on the top of the foot show 86.7% recognition rate for alphabet characters after some training. In addition, applying vibrotactile device to driving situation shows 83.9% recognition rate. We also propose some potentially useful application scenarios including Caller Identification for mobile phones and Navigation Aids for GPS systems while driving.

The purpose of this study is to make a correlation analysis between mechanical characteristics and sensory characteristics of puffer fish fillet under storage conditions and to find out those quality characteristics. With the storage time, VBN increased while color, smell and texture values decreased. As the appearance, the fish showed excellent quality stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 8-12 hours, at $12^{\circ}C$ for 4-8 hours and at $20^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. When the L value increased, color preference in sensory results decreased in correlation physicochemical properties, mechanical properties and sensory properties of puffer fish fillet. However, mechanical properties and sensory evaluation showed a different aspect. When the higher temperature, redness(a-value) decreased. Regardless of storage temperature, yellowness (b-value) increased. In the results of the hardness, the value was higher, the sensory showed the better texture.

This paper presents a novel pneumatic tactile display that can deliver some useful information. The air-jet display forms 5 by 5 arrays and features air nozzles with an external diameter of 2.4mm and internal diameter of 1.5 mm. In comparison with other tactile displays such as vibrotactile, there is little concrete psychophysical data relating to pneumatic displays, a fact which hinders their adoption. This paper addresses this challenge, and presents brief psychophysical studies examining localization rate, the two point threshold, stimulus intensity and the temporal threshold of cues produced by pneumatic air jets. Two groups of subjects were used in these studies, subsequently termed groups A and B. Both were comprised of eight participants. In the case of localization study we obtained 58.13% and 85.9% of localization rates each for dense display and sparse display. Two-points threshold test showed the length of gap between two air-jet stimuli which subjects can detect. However, it was formidable to find out precise temporal resolution of PTI owing to the limitation of capability of the pneumatic valves. Lastly, the results of stimulus intensity study suggest that by varying the size of a pneumatically created tactile stimulus, we can effectively vary its perceived magnitude.

This paper introduce a structure of haptic collaboration system over high resolution tiled-display, and proposes a object based efficient display method for high resolution display in integrated system. in addition, a modeling of visualization system is defined to evaluate performance of the proposed method. Both haptic system and tiled-display system have requirements of computational power. A haptic device is unstable if haptic rendering rate is less than 1kHz. A requirement of tiled-display systems is frame rate of display. It requires update of 30 frame fer sec. If we use these systems independently, we can satisfy each requirements. However, if we integrate two systems, performance of entire system significantly decreases because of lack of resources. In this paper, therefore, we propose a segmentation-based display method for ultra high resolution display in integrated system. The proposed method reduces redundancy of display data by reducing a display rate of static objects. Finally, a modeling of visualization system is defined to evaluate performance of the proposed method.

The purpose of this study is to find out the factors that explain the sense of touch and preference of man-made leather. Date base of descriptors for man-made leather was collected by interviewing 50 consumers, 33 different kinds of commercial man-made leathers(synthetic leather and artificial leather) were assessed subjectively by 605 consumers using the 9-point scale of 34 pairs of bipolar descriptors based on the data base. Subjective ratings were analyzed by principal axis factoring with varimax rota-tion. The sense of touch of man-made leather is explained by five factors ; surface property stretchiness thickness& weight thermal property(warmth & coolness) and moisture property (sticky & clingy). The difference in the sense of touch of man-made leathers is mainly attributable to surface property and stretchiness. And the preference of man-made leathers is mainly attributable to surface property and stretchiness. And the preference of man-made leather is explained by three factors ; surface property stretchiness and quality. Higher preference is found in man-mad leather of better quality touch and softness.

This study was performed to help the denim fabric planning which reflects the sensibility preference of university students. Objective characteristics, like color properties and mechanical properties, in 8 denim fabrics (5 cotton 100% fabrics and 3 cotton/polyurethane blended fabrics) were evaluated. And the color preference, subjective sensation and tactile preference of denim fabrics were investigated among the university students. The effect of color preference and tactile preference of denim fabrics on the purchase preference of denim slacks was also examined. Color preference of denim fabrics showed a significant difference according to the kind of denim fabrics. University students preferred purple blue denim fabrics that was measured low $-b^*$ value and low $C^*$ value among the color properties of denim fabrics. Among the mechanical properties of denim fabrics, surface property like MMD, MIU and SMD as well as shear property like 2HG5 were important elements affecting subjective sensation. While, tactile preferences showed a significant difference according to the fabrics. The tactile preferences of cotton/polyurethane blended denim fabrics was highly preferred, and that of heavy 100% cotton denim fabric was lowly preferred. And the subjective sensation affecting tactile preferences were in order of smoothness, softness, lightness. It is concluded that the color preference and tactile preference influenced upon the purchase preference of denim slacks, and color preference had a bigger effect upon the purchase preference.
