접촉식 동작인식기반 사용자 인터페이스 기술(touch user interface)의 발전은 새로운 사용자 경험(UX)인 아이폰의 등장과 성공에 있다고 할 수 있다. 특히 애플 아이폰이 출시된 이후, 기존에 많이 쓰였던 전통적인 사용자 경험인 키보드와 마우스라는 큰 틀에서 벗어나게 된다. 현재는 4세대 기술인 비접촉식 동작인식 기반 사용자 인터페이스 기술이 접촉식 인터페이스 기술을 대체하는 방향으로 발전하고 있으며, 3세대에서 4세대로 이동한다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비접촉식 인터액션 기술에 대한 선도기업을 중심으로 소개할 예정이며, 현재 선보이고 있는 최신 기술과 향후 선보일 기술에 대해 분석하고 비교해 본다.

This paper describes a wearable multi-modal user interface design and its implementation for a teleoperated field robot system. Recently some teleoperated field robots are employed for hazard environment applications (e.g. rescue, explosive ordnance disposal, security). To complete these missions in outdoor environment, the robot system must have appropriate functions, accuracy and reliability. However, the more functions it has, the more difficulties occur in operation of the functions. To cope up with this problem, an effective user interface should be developed. Furthermore, the user interface is needed to be wearable for portability and prompt action. This research starts at the question: how to teleoperate the complicated slave robot easily. The main challenge is to make a simple and intuitive user interface with a wearable shape and size. This research provides multi-modalities such as visual, auditory and haptic sense. It enables an operator to control every functions of a field robot more intuitively. As a result, an EOD (explosive ordnance disposal) demonstration is conducted to verify the validity of the proposed wearable multi-modal user interface.

Biodiesel fuels contain unsaturated fatty acid ester, which can easily oxidize, especially when exposed to ultraviolet light. The products formed by this oxidation give rise to sediment or gum formation. As a result, the fuel can contribute to the corrosion and plugging of the filter pump. Antioxidants have been used in an effort to stabilize biodiesels, but there is still a need for a biodiesel composition with improved oxidation stability. In general, good fuel compositions should provide synergistic combinations of a biodiesel and antioxidants. Our work involved the synthesis of antioxidants to improve the oxidative stability of biodiesel fuel.

Annually, 60 millions tons of polyolefins including polyethylene and polypropylene, etc. are produced in the world. During the manufacturing process, 1-2wt% of olefin gases of total feedstock remains unreacted and incinerated into air. Because of high cost of olefins and hazardous emission of carbon dioxide and toxic gases in incineration process, it is of important to recover them efficiently.(omitted)

A haptic interface can be a passive system with virtual coupling as a filter virtual coupling has been designed for satisfying passivity. However, it affects transparency of haptic interface as well as stability. This paper suggests new design criterion of a haptic interface controller by considering transparency. As a result, sampling time and the range of impedance or admittance should be considered as well as virtual coupling for desired performance of hapticdisplay. And experiments show that the suggested design criterion can be applied successfully for desired performance.

An important factor in eye-tracking PC interface for general paralyzed patients is the implementation of the mouse interface, for manipulating the GUI. With a successfully implemented mouse interface, users can generate mouse events exactly at the point of their choosing. However, it is difficult to define this interaction in the eye-tracking interface. This problem has been defined as the Midas touch problem and has been a major focus of eye-tracking research. There have been many attempts to solve this problem using blink, voice input, etc. However, it was not suitable for general paralyzed patients because some of them cannot wink or speak. In this paper, we propose a mouth-pop-up, eye-tracking mouse interface that solves the Midas touch problem as well as becoming a suitable interface for general paralyzed patients using a common RGB camera. The interface presented in this paper implements a mouse interface that detects the opening and closing of the mouth to activate a pop-up menu that the user can select the mouse event. After implementation, a performance experiment was conducted. As a result, we found that the number of malfunctions and the time to perform tasks were reduced compared to the existing method.

Freeze-thaw cycles induce strength loss at the frozen soil-concrete interface and deterioration of bonding, which causes construction engineering problems. To clarify the deterioration characteristics of the interface under the freeze-thaw cycle, a frozen soil-concrete sample was used as the research object, an interface scanning electron microscope test under the freeze-thaw cycle was carried out to identify the micro index information, and an interface shear test was carried out to explore the loss law of interface shear strength under the freeze-thaw cycle. The results showed that the integrity of the interface was destroyed, and the pore number and pore size of the interface increased significantly with the number of freeze-thaw cycles. The connection form gradually deteriorates from surface-to-surface contact to point-to-surface contact and point-to-point contact, and the interfacial shear strength decreases the most at 0-3 freeze-thaw cycles, with small decreases from to 3-8 cycles. After 12 freeze-thaw cycles, the interfacial shear strength tends to be stable, and shear the failure occurs internally in the soil.

We propose a seamless IPTV transport technology of mobile device. This technology uses multiple interfaces of wireless communication on mobile device. This proposal for transportation of mobile IPTV contents is more mobile and adaptable than other wireless technologies that are currently being used. Algorithm of proposed technology is as follow. When the signal strength of the connected wireless network interface of mobile device is getting lower than specified level, another wireless network interface is connected to continue downloading the IPTV contents in advance. Another connection is maintained until the signal strength of the first connected interface is stable or the interface is connected to another base station (or AP) that have good signal strength. For more seamless services, we consider classifying the packets of mobile IPTV and using dynamic content quality select techniques. Dynamic content quality selection is based on notifying transfer rate to the content delivery network (CDN) server. The proposed technology is expected to use efficiently with both mobile IPTV and the transportation of mobile P2P/P4P.

The interaction between the frozen soil and building structures deteriorates with the increasing temperature. A nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) stratification test was conducted with respect to the unfrozen water content on the interface and a shear test was conducted on the frozen soil-structure interface to explore the shear characteristics of the frozen soil-structure interface and its failure mechanism during the thawing process. The test results showed that the unfrozen water at the interface during the thawing process can be clearly distributed in three stages, i.e., freezing, phase transition, and thawing, and that the shear strength of the interface decreases as the unfrozen water content increases. The internal friction angle and cohesive force display a change law of "as one falls, the other rises," and the minimum internal friction angle and maximum cohesive force can be observed at -1℃. In addition, the change characteristics of the interface strength parameters during the freezing process were compared, and the differences between the interface shear characteristics and failure mechanisms during the frozen soil-structure interface freezing-thawing process were discussed. The shear strength parameters of the interface was subjected to different changes during the freezing-thawing process because of the different interaction mechanisms of the molecular structures of ice and water in case of the ice-water phase transition of the test sample during the freezing-thawing process.

Purpose: Thy yttria tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline(Y-TZP) is a good structural ceramic for dental restoration. But it have a problem that delamination of veneering ceramic from the Y-TZP core materials. The problem generally occur at the interface, thus this study was conducted to evaluate the interface of Y-TZP using scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Methods: To investigate this aspect, high-resolution SEM observations were made of polished and etched (HF content gel) cross-sections of the interface area. Dry and moist veneering porcelain powders were built up on the zirconia base. Results: The extent of this surface faceting is dependent upon the moisture content of the porcelain powder and the firing temperature. More moisture and higher final heating temperature accelerates the observed faceting of the Y-TZP grains at the interface to the veneering ceramic. Conclusion: These changes of the Y-TZP grains indicate that destabilization of the tetragonal phase of zirconia occurs at the interface during veneering with ceramic. It may result in a reduction of the stability of the zirconia and interface.
