In this study, we propose an information providing and learning system using augmented reality in the exhibition (museum, performance) environment. In a typical exhibition space, a description of a picture or a photograph is provided in a printed matter or a space in the form of an information space (explanatory space), or an auxiliary explanation using an 'audio guide' or a 'docent' program. Augmented reality technology is applied to the exhibition space in the form of a fusion of these methods, and the description of the exhibition is provided to the user in various forms such as text, picture, audio and image, thereby providing stereoscopic information and learning. We apply the augmented reality technology in a specific exhibition space and utilize it as a tool of providing information and learning using image description of pictures.

Since video is composed of unstructured data with massive storage and linear forms, it is essential to conduct various research studies to provide the required contents for users who are accustomed to dealing with standardized data such as documents and images. Previous studies have shown the occurrence of undetected and false detected shots. This thesis suggested shot verification and video retrieval system using visual rhythm to reduce these kinds of errors. First, the system suggested in this paper is designed to detect the parts easily and quickly, which are assumed as shot boundaries, just by changing the visual rhythm without playing the image. Therefore, this enables to delete the false detected shot and to generate the unidentified shot and key frame. The following are the summaries of the research results of this study. Second, during the retrieving process, a thumbnail and keyword method of inquiry is possible and the user is able to put some more priorities on one part than the other between the color and shape. As a result, the corresponding shot or scene is displayed. However, in the case of not finding the preferred shot, the key picture frame of similar shot is supplied and can be used in the further inquiry of the next scene.

In this paper we mention the optimization of MPEG-4 VM (Moving Picture Expert Group-4 Verification Model) GA (General Audio) AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) encoder and the design of the decoder for PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) using MPEG-4 VM source. We profiled the VMC source and several optimization methods have applied to those selected functions from the profiling. Intel Pentium III 600 MHz PC, which uses windows 98 as OS, takes about 20 times of encoding time compared to input sample running time, with additional options, and about 10 times without any option. Decoding time on PDA was over 35 seconds for the 17 seconds input sample. After optimization, the encoding time has reduced to 50% and the real time decoding has achieved on PDA.

PACS(Picture Archiving Communication System)를 바탕으로 하는 DICOM(Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine)은 주요 의료영상장비들 사이에 데이터와 영상을 효율적으로 교환하고 전송할 수 있도록 마련한 표준안으로 현재 대부분의 최신형 의료영상장비(CT, MR, DSA, CR(Computed Radiology), 초음파검사, 핵의학검사, 내시경검사, 조직병리검사, 등)들은 의료 영상 분야의 국제 표준인 DICOM 표준방식에 의해 영상을 제공하고 있다. 최근 이러한 의료영상장비들은 독립적으로 사용하기보다는 의료수술 모니터링 장비 등의 비 의학영상장비와 서로 연계하여 사용하는 경우가 많아졌다. 그러나 이러한 의료수술 모니터링 장비들은 DICOM 표준 데이터를 고려하지 못하므로 PACS를 통한 데이터 연계에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 표준 DICOM 포맷과 의료수술 모니터링 장비의 데이터 구조를 분석하여 non-DICOM 의료수술 모니터링 장비의 PACS 연동을 위한 방안을 제안하였다.

It is common to use PC or Digital picture frame in stand-alone fashion to view images, movies, or to listen MP3 musics which are considered as multimedia contents, However, such existing methods have weakness for expanding network requirements or augmenting extra data, in such case inevitably requiring external devices. With keeping in mind for such expansion, in this study, we have suggested a new concepts of network module which may utilize an image server for data transmission, in the proposed module, data alarm packet was defined for alerting incoming data from the image server and it became possible to synchronize between the image server and device not only in wired but also in wireless environments through UART. The method consists of a control module for an image server and a synchronization module between the server and the device. We have also tested the feasibility for future commercial usages such as advertisements through performance evaluations.

Light Drawing is a photographic technique which exposures are made at night or in a darkened room usually by moving a hand-held light source[1]. Due to the limitations of equipment and environment, users having difficulty in drawing a picture in 3D space. If user take a light drawing, they need a camera that have function and darkened environment. Alternative solution is that we can make a light drawing picture by using the computer drawing tool as in Photoshop. Nevertheless, this solution will let the User lose their interest in drawing because this solution cannot synchronize between the real action of human hand motion and the electronic input devices such as mouse and keyboard. This paper proposed a digital content that can make light drawing easier. We used a digital content that will facility Light Drawing easier. We can measure the light spot position by using the stereo camera. Based on the measured position of the light spot, we reproduce light drawing in virtual space by using drawing effect method.

In this paper, a real-time operating Motion Picture Experts Group-1 (MPEG-1) audio encoder system is implemented using a TMS320C31 Digital Signal Processor (DSP) chip. The basic operation of the MPEG-1 audio encoder algorithm based on audio layer-2 and psychoacoustic model-1 is first verified by C-language. It is then realized using the Texas Instruments (Tl) assembly in order to reduce the overall execution time. Finally, the actual BSP circuit board for the encoder system is designed and implemented. In the system, the side-modules such as the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) control, the input/output (I/O) control, the bit-stream transmission from the DSP board to the PC and so on, are utilized with a field programmable gate array (FPGA) using very high speed hardware description language (VHDL) codes. The complete encoder system is able to process the stereo audio signal in real-time at the sampling frequency 48 kHz, and produces the encoded bit-stream with the bit-rate 192 kbps. The real-time operation capability of the encoder system and the good quality of the decoded sound are also confirmed using various types of actual stereo audio signals.

Whenever the accidents occur in the railway areas, their prompt recovery is very important. The individual way has been used to resolve these accidents by direct visiting the site and reporting to others who cares for these cases. As a result, we are planning to operate the MTS (Moving picture Transmission System) for a timely information's transmission to the related peoples in the central control center by transforming the picture information on the accident-site to the digital information. The proposed system is not a transmission system using exclusive lines, but utilizing the existing railway computer network. We construct a network server device so that a dispatcher can easily connect with the server through the railway intranet. In some railway environments such as disturbed field situations and geographical condition(in tunnels and bridges, etc) building up the wired network is difficult. Solving this problem, we reviewed the wireless network. Finally we proposed the mixed wireless network that is able to cover the wired network. We then installed and tested the wired network and wireless network respectively in wayside of a railway field. Through the testing, we identified many detailed matters for some network construction approaches to the control room and many field device-connecting schemes. This research will contribute to minimize the number of staff dispatched to a disturbed field, decrease the accident recovery time and improve the quality of service to the passenger.

In this work, an improved architecture of two-dimensional digital filter(2D DF) is suggested, and then the filter is simulated by C, VHDL language and related layouts are designed by Berkeley CAD tools. The 2D DF consists of one-dimensional digital filters and delay lines. For one-dimensional digital filter(1D DF) case, once filter coefficients are represented by canonical signed digit formats, multiplications are exected by hardwired-shifting methods. The related bit numbers are handled to prevent picture quality degradation and pipelined adder architectures are adopted in each tap and output stage to speed up the filter. For delay line case, line-sharing DRAM is adopted to improve power dissipation and speed. The filter layout is designed by semi/full custom methods considering regularity and speed improvement, and normal operation is confirmed by simulation.
