An interactive wireless-game device based on multi-channel electromyogram has been developed to help rehabilitation of patients with hemiplegia. The device is able to provide a visual feedback and rehabilitation motivations to the patients. The game contents were made according to the number of applied channels and, their level and speed can also be controlled depending on the recovery states of patients. Patient satisfaction survey was conducted to evaluate the necessity and usefulness of the proposed device after playing the game. The results show that the proposed system is expected to give hemiplegia patients exciting and effective rehabilitation chances, if more diverse and specialized rehabilitation games are developed.

In this paper, we would like to support anyone who can rehabilitate conveniently and happily by implementing rehabilitation device and game contents that can improve the motor ability of fingers. So we developed a Finger Tapping Device that can measure finger-regulation ability, accuracy, and agility and implemented tracking, visual response, finger-regulation on game contents by utilizing this device. The verification of usability was confirmed by analyzing sEMG signals during the execution of three types of game contents after attaching sEMG to the flexor digitorum poundus, which is most involved in finger movement. As a result of the experiment, activation of the flexor digitorum poundus was performed during execution of every game contents. Furthermore, we confirmed that there is a difference in agility by measuring the reaction time for each finger according to the visual response.

Microsoft released motion sensing device named Kinnect on early 2010, which is available for developing Xbox 360 game and entertainment software. Also many third party libraries and applications are developed for Kinnect. In this paper, we studied and developed guitar rhythm game on Kinnect using three sensor units on it. Rhythm game is the most popular game genre for many game devices including PC, console device, and smart phone. The main reasons for their popularity depends on their simplicity, short learning time and physical activity with rhythms. We developed the game screen and layout on DirectX 11, also we used OpenNI library for recognize physical activity of gamer's body and fingers, and OpenGL for body gestures on the game.

In this paper, a game control system was constructed, in which a game was controlled by a remote joystick connected with a power line by the power line communication (PLC) method. The structure of the system was that the connection line between the remote joystick and a PC, and the PC and an audio play device was the home power line. And, the communication data rate between them was 2400 bps. The Polling communication technique was used for the PC to read the joystick's control commands, and to send some acoustic informations to the receiver PLC device. A game was programmed, in which an aircraft was moved according to the joystick's left, right, up, and, down direction, and was shooting its missile after the joystick's shooting button was pushed. The communication delay of about 100 msec between them didn't cause any big problem in playing the game.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, games played an important role in people's lives. Numerous online users flocked to the game platform, and brand companies started using online games to promote their products. Medical institutions have also implemented policies for healthy physical activity through online games. In order to attract more global game users, research on immersion in games is also very important to prevent users from leaving the platform. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the common immersion elements of popular games by country and study them from the perspective of changing devices. In this paper, representative popular games of Korea, China, and Japan, which are recently called the dark horse of the game industry, are classified by devices of mobile, online PCs, and VR games and analyzed using immersion analysis tools proposed by researcher. Next, the representative metaverse games of the Web 3.0 era were analyzed, and their characteristics were compared with the results of the immersion analysis between Korea, China, and Japan, and proposed as game immersion elements suitable for metabus games.

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.

Web Game provides computer games through a web browser, and have several benefits. First, we can access the game through web browser easily if we are connected to the internet environment. Second, usually we don't need much space of a game data for downloading it into a local disk. Nowadays, an industry area of Web Game has a chance to grow through advancements of mobile computing technologies and an age of Web 2.0. This study proposes a Web Game system that users can apply to manipulate the game with multimodal interfaces and mobile devices for intuitive interactions. In this study, multi modal interfaces are used to efficient control the game, and both ordinary computers and mobile devices are applied to the game scenarios. The proposed system is evaluated in both performance and user acceptability in comparison with previous approaches. The proposed system reduces total clear time and numbers of errors of the experiment in a mobile device. It can also provide good satisfactions of users.

The purpose of this to study a more accurate scoring method in accordance with the change in the game due to the fast-break and external shots of modern basketball. We will make to design and develop a smart basketball device with a digital pressure sensor. The basketball is a sport that combines complex techniques such as dribbling, passing, and shooting, and the game wins or loses with the most goals in all sports on the planet. In particular, shooting, which determines the win or loss of a game, is the technique that is most directly linked to the score, so the angle of projection is important to make a more accurate shooting. The purpose of this to develop an assistive device in order for the player to have a certain shooting rhythm by measuring the throw angle through a sensor that can measure the throw angle of the ball during shooting. This smart basketball device, it is possible to increase the accuracy of shooting through a certain throw angle at the basketball game field or during shooting practice, and accordingly, the performance can be expected to improve.
