VR is a dynamic image simulation technology with very high information density. Among them, spatial depth, temporality, and realism bring an unprecedented sense of immersion to the experience. However, due to its high information density, the information contained in it is very easy to be manipulated, creating an illusion of objectivity. Users need guidance to help them interpret the high density of dynamic image information. Just like setting up navigation interfaces and interactivity in games, interactivity in virtual reality is a way to interpret virtual content. At present, domestic research on VR content is mainly focused on technology exploration and visual aesthetic experience. However, there is still a lack of research on interactive storytelling design, which is an important part of VR content creation. In order to explore a better interactive storytelling model in virtual reality content, this paper analyzes the interactive storytelling features of the VR animated version of <Wolves in the walls> through the methods of literature review and case study. We find that the following rules can be followed when creating VR content: 1. the VR environment should fully utilize the advantages of free movement for users, and users should not be viewed as mere observers. The user's sense of presence should be fully considered when designing interaction modules. Break down the "fourth wall" to encourage audience interaction in the virtual reality environment, and make the hot media of VR "cool". 2.Provide developer-driven narrative in the early stages of the work so that users are not confused about the ambiguous world situation when they first enter a virtual environment with a high degree of freedom. 1.Unlike some games that guide users through text, you can guide them through a more natural interactive approach that adds natural dialog between the user and story characters (NPC). Also, since gaze guidance is an important part of story progression, you should set up spatial scene user gaze guidance elements within it. For example, you can provide eye-following cues, motion cues, language cues, and more. By analyzing the interactive storytelling features and innovations of the VR animation <Wolves in the walls>, I hope to summarize the main elements of interactive storytelling from its content. Based on this, I hope to explore how to better showcase interactive storytelling in virtual reality content and provide thoughts on future VR content creation.

This study sought to design and develop an interactive video player (IVP) capable of promoting student engagement through the use of online video content. We designed features built upon interactive, constructive, active, passive (ICAP), and crowd learning frameworks. In the development stage of this study, we integrated numerous interactive features into the IVP intended to help learners shift from passive to interactive learning activities. We then explored the effectiveness and usability of the developed IVP by conducting an experiment in which we evaluated students' exam scores after using either our IVP or a conventional video player. There were 158 college students who participated in the study; 76 students in the treatment group used the IVP and 82 students in the control group used a conventional video player. Results indicate that the participants in the experiment group demonstrated better achievement than the participants in the control group. We further discuss the implications of this study based on an additional survey that was administered to disclose how usable the participants perceived the IVP to be.

Recently, due to decrease hardware prices and the development of technology, analog signage has been changing to digital signage for providing content such as advertisements, videos. Furthermore, in order to provide advertisements and contents to users more effectively, technical researches are being conducted in various industries. In addition, including digital signage that uses displays, it can be seen that it provides advertisements and contents using diverse devices such as LED signage, smart pads, and smart phones. However, most digital signage is installed in one place to provide contents and provides interactivity through simple events such as manual content provision or touch. So, in this paper, we suggest a new object detection algorithm based on an adjacent frames based image correction algorithm for interactive building signage.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of interactive pictorial education on community dwelling older Korean adults' self-efficacy and knowledge for safe medication. Methods: A quasi-experimental, three-group pre- and post-intervention design was used in this study. The interactive pictorial education was designed to suit the learning patterns and psychomotor skills of older adults. The education content, dealing with safe medication, was delivered over three sessions. A total of 136 older adults from local senior centers were assigned to one of the three groups: a) interactive pictorial education plus information booklet (experimental); b) education only with information booklet (conventional); or c) no intervention (control). Results: Participants receiving interactive pictorial education had significantly higher self-efficacy (F=24.32, p<.001) and knowledge (F=24.26, p<.001) scores than the information booklet or control group at post intervention. Post-hoc analyses indicated that both the interactive pictorial and the information booklet groups had significantly higher self-efficacy and knowledge scores than the control group at the post-test point (p<.05). Furthermore, the interactive pictorial group had higher self-efficacy and knowledge scores than the information booklet group at the post-test point (p<.05). Conclusion: These results suggest that the interactive pictorial education is an innovative approach that provides a means for older adults to learn appropriate medication use to improve their own health. It empowers older adults with different literacy levels to enhance their self-efficacy and knowledge for the safe use of medication.

Recently, in platforms such as YouTube and Instagram, virtual characters resembling human life become the main characters, produce various contents, breathe with the public, and create the era of virtual humans. For example, existing game characters appear as virtual characters with unique AUs, or AI characters created by reflecting the public's preferences are actively communicating with the public through advertisements and SNS activities. As the consumption of video content through smart devices increases significantly in the post-corona era, virtual influencers are being used as all-round entertainers because there is little risk of personality controversy or production cost. there is a trend In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the case of being active as an influencer among the activities of a virtual character, and how the interactive aspect of the influencer appears by identifying the current situation through major cases. Combining this, based on the analysis of the influence of virtual influencers, the parts that producers should recognize are derived, and the differentiated characteristics of interactive virtual influencers are summarized. In addition, the difficulties of virtual influencers were investigated and problems were identified, and for the development of the content industry, a more favorable method for interaction was presented and suggestions were made to secure inner sincerity.

Recently, recommender systems have been widely applied in E-commerce websites to help their customers find the items what they want. A recommender system should be able to provide users with useful information regarding their interests. The ability to immediately respond to the changes in user's preference is a valuable asset of recommender systems. This paper proposes a novel recommender system which aims to effectively adapt and respond to the immediate changes in user's preference. The proposed system combines IEC (Interactive Evolutionary Computation) with a content-based filtering method and also employs data grouping in order to improve time efficiency. Experiments show that the proposed system makes acceptable recommendations while ensuring quality and speed. From a comparative experimental study with an existing recommender system which uses the content-based filtering, it is revealed that the proposed system produces more reliable recommendations and adaptively responds to the changes in any given condition. It denotes that the proposed approach can be an alternative to resolve limitations (e.g., over-specialization and sparse problems) of the existing methods.

There have been many WBI systems developed, but most of them do not fully consider instructional methods and learners' individual differences. If these are considered, a system will make a greater contribution to educational efficiency. We have developed a WBI prototype system that supports various instructional methods with varying instructional content. It presents instructional content that considers learners' individual differences. In this system, we provide interactive content based on multi-medium, interactive content based on text, and multi-medium presentation-stye content as one way teaching and text material appropriate to the learners' reference. Among the instructional methods, this system recommends a content appropriate to the individual learner. We provide individually proper feedback which considers the learner' misunderstanding in test modules. We tested our system in actual classes, evaluating and proofing our system for maximum educational effect.
