This paper deals with the elderly serious game design which makes full use of the existing arcade game machine. This serious game is on the issue for its positive role recently. Serious arcade game for the elderly which is made up arcade platform-based combined contents manufacture technology has an element which is having a fun for building up physical and mental health. It also has a special objective which can prevent against senile dementia. Above-mentioned serious arcade game which has a special objective in both hardware part and software part is needed to study how to design. Accordingly, this paper presents how to make up special-purpose entertainment machine and contents development by biologic, social, and psychological researches and data about the elderly - main users. We hope that this paper can be used as a base for expansion of new industrial field by integrating new product development for the elderly with high game technology.With the help of information technology

In the recent gaming industry, the paradigm has been changed with upcoming core-platform as time goes by. Arcade, console, PC online and smart device platforms are representative ones. In recently, the platform is changed to multi-platform which connecting to smart device and other platforms. Besides, the multi-platform without PC is up-coming. This paper suggests that a kind of multi-platform which connecting from smart devices to arcade devices be aware of lack of continuous. It provides a new arcade gaming condition connecting to smart devices, then supplies online network conditions to the arcade gaming machine. The original arcade game was lack of continuous and the game platform was so simple, but now, it could be focused from players by connecting to smart devices to increase the gaming machines' continuity. Furthermore, Bluetooth communication module and wireless Wi-Fi communication module are used to adapt various communication environments. The Unity3D engine would make contents' expandability.

Recently, the issue has been tangible game environment due to the various interactive interface developments. In this paper, we propose the multi card touch based interactive arcade system by using marker recognition interface and multi-touch interaction interface. For our system, the card's location and orientation information is recognized through DI-based recognition algorithm. In addition, the user's hand gesture tracking informations are provided by the various interaction metaphors. The system provides the user with a higher engagement offers a new experience. Therefore, our system will be used in the tangible arcade game machine.

To get a better profit, standalone mobile game market shifts network-based mobile game. Currently, most of the game platform are separated into mobile to mobile, desktop to desktop, and console to console. Multi platform network game has a diverse problems including consistency control, object management technique, and bandwidth inconsistency. n this paper, we will introduce a multi-platform arcade game "Push-Push", which is played on desktop to mobile environment. The game guarantees realtime play between heterogeneous machine users and game item sharing between two platforms. e will focus n the issues of the 3rd generation multi platform games and propose some techniques or solving these problems. Our server database is implemented on MS SQL database, also the desktop programming tool is Visual Basic, and WIPI(Wireless Internet Platform or Interoperability) as a mobile platform.

본 연구는 새로운 마커형태인 2D Grid 마커와..적외선 카메라를 이용한 마커 트래킹 기술에 대하여 기술하고 있다. 제안하는 2D Grid 마커는 가변 비트의 표현이 가능하며 회전방향의 인식이 가능하다. 그리고 내부 비트 연산을 통하여 서로 다른 마커를 구분 할 수 있게도 해준다. 일반 웹카메라를 적외선 카메라로 변환하여 영상을 처리하였고, 적외선 파장의 영상을 사용하여 에러율을 감소시키고 인식률을 증가시켰으며 비가시화 영역인 적외선 잉크로 인쇄된 부분도 인식될 수 있도록 하였다.
