This paper presents an immersive multimodal Gumdo simulation game that allows a user to experience the whole body interaction with an intelligent cyber fencer. The proposed system consists of three modules: (i) a nondistracting multimodal interface with 3D vision and speech (ii) an intelligent cyber fencer and (iii) an immersive feedback by a big screen and sound. First, the multimodal Interface with 3D vision and speech allows a user to move around and to shout without distracting the user. Second, an intelligent cyber fencer provides the user with intelligent interactions by perception and reaction modules that are created by the analysis of real Gumdo game. Finally, an immersive audio-visual feedback by a big screen and sound effects helps a user experience an immersive interaction. The proposed system thus provides the user with an immersive Gumdo experience with the whole body movement. The suggested system can be applied to various applications such as education, exercise, art performance, etc.

In 21 century, Game industry became one field of the cultural content industries. Also, It is one of the most important technologies as a Multimedia, 3-D sound, virtual reality field, and character industry and its scale and effect are getting big. But Korea still lags behind America and Japan in developing game. For that, many support business progressed. However, Special importance〔emphasis〕 is attached to the developing of software engines. In the mean time, The game market of children(under 8) is the biggest one, which form over 30% of all the markets in the PC game market of America. The Children's game, which has both entertaining and educating, is a content-concerned industry. So with a short period of the developing time, they make a high value added. In this paper, 1 study the existing computer games and propose for game contents and the game factor's abstraction suited to the character by kid age. It is concluded that 'Asports', 'Asim,' 'U.J RPG', 'S＋RPG' are beneficial to the child growth on each stage, through serveys analysis of protocol, and research of the cjaracters of the growth on the each age.

The functions of playing musics and multimedia have become essential in one device as a smart phone since the smart phone appeared. It is very convenient, but it contains controversial arguments about sound quality, so many smart phone users use the music player application. By using these music applications, people start to think about the relationship between music playing and sound quality. However, those applications are not perfect, so it is hard to choose a good application. This thesis is about the advantages of the sound quality of music player applications that are currently sold in Android Market through RightMark Audio Analyzer program, and plans to suggest android music player application system design by analyzing applications by covering disadvantages of these applications.

In computer games, most of GUI methods are keyboards, mouses and touch screens. The total time of processing the sound commands for games is the sum of input time and recognition time. In this paper, we propose a method for taking only the prefixes of the input signals for sound commands, resulting in the reduced the total processing time, instead of taking the whole input signals. In our method, command sounds are recognized using HMM(Hidden Markov Model), where separate HMM's are built for the whole input signals and their prefix signals. We experiment our proposed method with representative commands of platform games. The experiment shows that the total processing time of input command signals reduces without decreasing recognition rate significantly. The study will contribute to enhance the versatility of GUI for computer games.

Among the cultural industries, the game industry is the most economically valuable industry. It has been about twenty years since the game policy has been implemented and the game laws have been enacted. If the law is a willing expression for the realization of the policy, the orientation of the game policy can be grasped through revision of the game laws. SOUND RECORDS, VIDEO PRODUCTS, AND GAME SOFTWARE ACT, established in 1999, and GAME INDUSTRY PROMOTION ACT, which was enacted in 2006, are regulated by many revisions. In this paper, I try to understand the direction and meaning of Korean game policy(classification, game dysfunction, gambling, industry growth) through the contents of the revision of the game law for 20 years. The game policy shown through the amendment of the game law is intended to protect the game by regulating the game, and to protect the game user by preventing the gambling and preventing the game dysfunction, and to increase autonomy of users and choice of producers by switching to self rating system, and based on this, an environment for continuous industrial growth is created. In the future, game policies should consider cooperation with social areas beyond game-specific areas. On the other hand, it needs to respond to new agendas such as polarization of industrial structure, fair environment, employment environment.

The purpose of this study is to provide a method to visualize the sound data to the three-dimensional image. The visualization of the sound data is performed according to the algorithm set after production of the text-based script that form the channel range of the sound data. The algorithm consists of a total of five levels, including setting sound channel range, setting picture frame for sound visualization, setting 3D image unit's property, extracting channel range of sound data and sound visualization, 3D visualization is performed with at least an operation signal input by the input device such as a mouse. With the sound files with the amount an animator can not finish in the normal way, 3D visualization method proposed in this study was highlighted that the low-cost, highly efficient way to produce creative artistic image by comparing the working time the animator with a study presented method and time for work. Future research will be the real-time visualization method of the sound data in a way that is going through a rendering process in the game engine.

A mobile Flash contents has risen its word in IT field recently. The flash against downloading the services of a character or a bell sound threaten the fist place of market in mobile contents field. And from now on flash game is able to be in a development field in view of the potentiality the market of mobile. That's the reason why is worthy notice, this is because there are various fields of approaching sc many users and that's a potential market. Therefore it has the sufficient possibility for the market. In this paper with allowing for these circumstance, flash animation contents produced for helping a student to make an animation in mobile environment and the model designed and embodied to have application for appling it to flash game.

A visual novel, a type of digital content combining novel and game, was designed as hypermedia which includes various media, for instance, image, sound, and video. The narrative of visual novel contains multimedia elements and highlights multi-scenario structures based on hypertext. Prior to creating visual novel scenario, a writer should thoroughly consider two main points. First of all, the scenario should cover the multimedia features of visual novel. Secondly, the scenario should be structured as a multi-scenario providing with performativity to players for interaction with readers. This study examines the influence of changes in platforms on visual novel scenario adjusted to mobile environment. It would provide an opportunity to understand how storytelling changes and adapts to rapid transformation of digital media contents.

This study aims to investigate the Learning and fun aspects of dance games by examining their instructive values. Dance Central 2 was analysed with a focus on its educational functions by observing dance moves. Therefore this study looked into the game's educational elements that create learning effects and fun elements that attract continuous and voluntary participation. Analysis was implemented based on the physical, cognitive, and emotional aspects for Learning elements and the aspects of graphics, sound, video, rewards, target-setting, difficulty levels, and control for fun elements. As a result, it was found that the practice and performance modes of Dance Central 2 have elements that can improve players dance skills. Of course, there may be difference in players' participation and effects depending on their goals and objectives. Consequently, the continuous use of the dance game supported by player's dance skills and commitment will improve learning.
