  • Digilog book using augmented reality is a form that augmented reality is implemented by illuminating the camera embedded in the mobile image on the page registered as an image marker after downloading the application, which shows a fragmentary limitation in the content implementation method. Therefore, in this study, we proposed a pop-up multi-tracking method that enables two-way interaction in a digit log book using augmented reality technology. Through this, we commissioned an authorized agency to test the technical differentiation of augmented reality content for two prototypes of existing book-type Digilog Book and Pop-up-type Digilog Book. A test report was issued. The pop-up type digit log book suggested in this study enables the user to implement the interactive contents according to the user's action (movement). This can induce the interaction between the virtual image and the printed picture book and give the learner an interest and immersion, so that it is possible to express the interaction of the digital log book.

  • Exergames are playing an important role in healthcare/rehabilitation. It has also been used to improve motivation among patients with reduced cognition. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the feasibility of using augmented reality (AR) with game-based cognitive-motor training programs for executive function, restricted and repetitive behaviors (RRBs) in children with autism spectrum disorder. Sixteen children aged 6 -16 years were randomly allocated to the experimental group and control group. Outcome measures were performed before and after the intervention and included executive function, restricted and repetitive behavior. A satisfactory survey was conducted post-intervention. A statistically significant improvement was observed in working memory and cognitive flexibility in the experimental group (P<0.05). However, despite no statistical improvements in cognitive inhibition and four subscales of RRBs, promising changes were observed in all the subscales of the executive function and the behavioral outcomes. Parents appreciated the program and children enjoyed the interaction with the AR game-based training. The findings of this preliminary feasibility study showed that AR using Kinect v2 motion with a cognitive-motor game content can be used for children with autism. However, there is a need for conducting a large-scale study to evaluate his effectiveness on executive function and restricted and repetitive behaviors.

  • Objectives: Based on the strengths of augmented reality (AR), this study aimed to determine the dental plaque removal efficiency of a guided brushing program in children. Methods: This randomized, controlled, double-blind crossover clinical trial evaluated the plaque removal rate after regular brushing versus AR-based guided toothbrushing in 20 children aged 5-12 years. Results: Overall, the dental plaque removal efficiency of AR-based brushing was superior to that of regular brushing (p<0.05). When classified in detail, no significant difference was noted in the plaque removal rate between the two brushing methods in the anterior region (p=0.056), whereas a significant difference in the plaque removal rate was observed in the posterior region (p<0.05). Conclusions: Based on these results, the efficacy of dental plaque removal for brushing using an AR-based smartphone application was confirmed; thus, this can be used for oral health education incorporating ICT technology in the future.

  • Recently, with the development of digital, children are exposed to a lot of media media. Reading activity decreases, making it difficult to acquire information from books or organize and remember acquired information. Since education with augmented reality increases children's participation and immersion in learning, we proposed a reading activity application with augmented reality technology to increase children's reading interest and creativity. In addition, based on the five nurturing processes, we designed a play-oriented reading activity for the application. In addition to the application suggestions, we designed a play-centered lesson model so that it can be used in actual lessons. In order to analyze the conceptual thinking framework according to the lesson model design, we visited an actual daycare center and conducted a class attended by an expert. Experts who participated were asked to fill out a pre-produced questionnaire to review the suitability of the reading activity class model and operation, and the feasibility was examined. Our lesson model design was based on limited book content, and due to ethical concerns, large-scale experiments with children could not be conducted, so the results of the study are not representative of the whole. However, it is significant that the possibility of running a new reading activity class based on the Nuri course has been examined and proposed.

  • In the case of long-term hospitalization for young patients, 'Hospital Schools' are operated to pursue school classes and to develop social and emotional abilities for them. However, face-to-face classes at hospital schools have been completely prohibited, and the untact or limited contact environment has been strengthened even for young patients due to the COVID-19 in recent years. Augmented Reality(AR) technology enables the development of experiential content with virtual environments, objects and characters similar to real life. The developed contents should revitalize the imagination of young patients living only in hospitals and allow them to experience, not only acquiring knowledge, but also improving interpersonal skills and sociality. This study is intended to provide diverse adventures and in-depth choice experiences to young patients who are struggling in an environment of untact and limited contact by creating experiential fairy tale contents using AR technology. In addition, long-term hospitalized children will be able to cultivate the will to overcome illness with positive emotions through the augmented reality experience fairy tale content studied and implemented in this study.

  • In this paper, we review the applicability of fog screen to implement 'Spatial Augmented Reality' which displays the image on the whole space of real space or in real space by separating display equipment and user, in contrast to the traditional Augmented Reality. Through three exhibitions and one performance, we confirmed t hat the fog screen, which can be passed through, is a suitable material for implementing the Spatial Augment ed Reality. We found that the hologram production was easier than before because of fog screen. Through the questionnaire survey conducted on performers along with the exhibition, we found that only about half of people know what a fog screen is, and about 10% of the total respondents saw the fog screen. In order to investigate the effect of fog screen on the surrounding space, we conducted an experiment to observe the change of humidity according to the time and distance in the Children's Culture Center of the Asian Culture Center. We found that the humidity within a radius of 5m around the fog screen could increase by 2~3%($6,400m^3$ standard). Thus we provided some safety requirement with fog screen when works made of materials vulnerable to moisture such as paint, paper, and wood are exhibited at the same time with fog screen in the exhibition hall.

  • With the development of online education due to COVID-19, the EduTech market, which combines new technologies such as AI and AR/VR in education is rapidly growing. In addition, the children's industry is steadily growing despite the decreasing birth rate every year as more and more families with one child per household are investing in their children. However, supply of contents to EduTech market is slow compared to demands that are increasing. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to help solve these problems by developing and supporting AR kids contents with convenience, practicality, and efficiency using AR technology. AR content for supporting vocabulary learning for infants is not just an end to watching and listening, but an observation-driven model that can manipulate content directly, which attracts children's interest and helps children learn words. This paper is intended for infants from 15 months to 36 months old when full-fledged language development occurs.
