This research aims to suggest a multimodal non-touch gesture interface design to improve the usability of 3D sculpting task. The task and procedure of design sculpting of users were analyzed across multiple circumstances from the physical sculpting to computer software. The optimal body posture, design process, work environment, gesture-task relationship, the combination of natural hand gesture and arm movement of designers were defined. The preliminary non-touch 3D S/W were also observed and natural gesture interaction, visual metaphor of UI and affordance for behavior guide were also designed. The prototype of gesture based 3D sculpting system were developed for validation of intuitiveness and learnability in comparison to the current S/W. The suggested gestures were proved with higher performance as a result in terms of understandability, memorability and error rate. Result of the research showed that the gesture interface design for productivity system should reflect the natural experience of users in previous work domain and provide appropriate visual - behavioral metaphor.

Mobile device has a constraint such as a small physical display size and interaction. One of the most important issues in mobile devices is the express an identity of one's products company. It can be appeal to the user in side of consistency. Thus, we integrate and extract an identity element from user experience including, Graphical User Interface, Information Architecture and Audio User Interface. The study was conducted by a task force team with User Interface practitioners of managing divisions of each product. In this study, methods and processes that were attempted in order to establish consistency principles of user experiences, enhancing the various characteristics of each product, are described. The results and practical experiences obtained through the processes are introduced.

This paper deals with the method will be able to support a common interface softly for the different with each other operating system users in next generation ubiquitous network. To controls in proxy servers that data portion be able to use commonly such as each different instruction, metaphor, image based on operating system, icons, it will be able to increases the efficiency of bandwidth use and minimizes a duplication transmission data from inside the bandwidth which is limited. Also it will be able to do method of common user interface provision to support seamless connectivity with each different network devices in the next generation.

This study attempts to clarify inter-relationship between design expression in the surface of contemporary multi-family housing and physical trends in this digital age. The study examines characteristics of housing design influenced from new digital technology in the forms of metaphor such as dematerialization, fluidity and mobility. Currently constructed multi-family housing in Europe after 1990 has been analyzed to find digital reflections in the surfaces. As a conclusion, findings are as follows; In this digital age, a house is considered as a base in the forms of boxes and containers to network to outer worlds. In a complex of multi-family housing, public spaces move to the inside and become parts of private domain. Therefore, a house directly faces a street/outer world without transitional areas and devices. The facades of housing become delicate skins to control private domain in the inside and the world in the outside. In this digital age, the surfaces of housing are designed by ways of wrapping and screening. Printing and mapping methods are used to surface design because they are manipulative and flexible methods in design like graphic design. Screening devices using louvers and shutters are powerful tools to make random and unpredictable images. If units of a louver and a shutter were pixels, a whole surface would be a digital screen. In such assumption, the facade of buildings reflects digital screen to interface while the louvers in operation reflect clicking to network. As a conclusion, design expression in surfaces in-between of multi-family housing is a metaphor of digital mechanism.

In this paper we discuss personal data management with mobile devices, an activity requiring the composition of services offered by standard suites of applications. We propose a data model and an interface model that allows users to define activities, tasks and services, to navigate among them according to the evolution of the personal situation as perceived and interpreted by the users themselves. The interface model acts as a lens exploring the situation, zooming into the details, covering different areas of the personal data, supporting the user in the role of a composer of personal services.

The interface metaphor has been evolved gradually from desktop to agent-oriented paradigm. Multimedia contents could be simply recognized as the multimodal communicational interface. In this respect, the emotional agents are actively focused as the research topics to test the possibility for realizing anthropomorphized and sympathetic interfaces. In this paper, the emotion generation model for tutoring agents is suggested.

현재 소방관들은 주로 무전기로 다른 소방관이나 중앙 지휘관과 통신을 하고, 필요 정보를 취득 혹은 공유 하면서 소방 활동을 수행 하고 있다. 소방 현장에서는 여러 가지 위험이 존재 하고 이를 극복하기 위해서 많은 정보를 필요로 할 때가 많지만, 이를 미리 모두 숙지 하고 있거나, 동적으로 변화 하는 상황을 무전기를 통하여 취득하고 이해 하기는 쉽지 않다. 이러한 어려운 점을 해소 하기 위하여 웨어러블 컴퓨터를 이용한다면 소방 활동을 도울 수 있을 것이며, 이에 적합한 웨어러블 인터페이스가 디자인 되어야 한다. 이 논문에서는 시나리오에 기반 한 인터액션 모델링, 화재 현장 및 소방 상황에서의 인간공학적 제한 조건, 사용자 설문조사, 그리고 인터페이스 패턴을 기반으로 소방 활동을 효과적으로 도울 수 있는 인터페이스 디자인 및 개발에 대하여 설명하고자 한다.

Nowadays, CAD has became an essential tool for designers due to its easy edition and manipulation as well as the capability of communication between designers. Differences between design tool interfaces can cause gaps when visualize designer's ideas. This study is about the differences between various levels of metaphor interface language which is based on the theory of the Hutchins that high-level language interface can reduce the steps of process to visualize the idea of the designers than low-level language interface. This research is based on the assumption that high-level language interface will less interrupt the flow of the design thinking and make more various visual outcomes than the low-level language interface. We verified the hypothesis by analyzing differences of design thinking flow between user groups who used two different animation software. Hopefully, the verification of the hypothesis in this study can be able to guide the use pattern of the CAD tools.

As mobile devices increase use, users are forced to recognize and navigate their own location and virtual space within a given small display. Unlike trains and buses, this study aims to select a space inside a subway train that is difficult to transfer location information to and suggest an interface to reduce cognitive differences to users. First, observe the actual environment and then derive the empirical factors. Second, by using Metapo which is an act of understanding or experiencing specific targets that are not familiar with familiar objects, the interface is designed according to the UX principle after converting the experience element into metapo. Finally, usability will be assessed through user experience evaluation and problem elicited and supplemented in future studies. This study expects the use of spatial interfaces to be increased and applied as a variety of services by using metaphors through experience elements to help users easily recognize their location within the mobile interface.
