  • Drag&Drop mechanism was formerly the clipboard of Microsoft Windows. Drag&Drop means that copy and paste functions using the clipboard are processed by a mouse event. The touch interface come info the spotlight not to speak of PCs, laptops and mobile phones. Mouse and touch interfaces make an environment to work easier and intuitive through visible interactions. In this paper, we implemented a web image collector to utilize Drag&Drop. And we proposed the how to apply and a utilizable plan from it.

  • Introduction: Surgical robot is the alternative instrument that substitutes the difficult and precise surgical operation; should have intuitiveness operationally to transfer natural motions. There are limitations of hand motion derived from contacting mechanical handle in the surgical robot master interface such as mechanical singularity, isotropy, coupling problems. In this paper, we will confirm and verify the feasibility of intuitive Non-restraint master interface which tracking the hand motion using infra-red camera and only 3 reflective markers without the hardware handle for the surgical robot master interface. Materials & methods: We configured S/W and H/W system; arranged 6 infra-red cameras and attached 3 reflective markers on hands for measuring 3 dimensional coordinate then we find the 7 motions of grasp, yaw, pitch, roll, px, py, pz. And we connected Virtual-Master to the slave surgical robot(Laparobot) and observed the feasibility. To verify the result of motion, we compare the result of Non-restraint master and that of clinometer (and protractor) through measuring 0~180 degree, 10degree interval, 1000 samples and recorded standard deviation stands for error rate of the value. Results: We confirmed that the average angle values of Non-restraint master interface is accurately corresponds to the result of clinometer (and protractor) and have low error rates during motion. Investigation & Conclusion: In this paper, we confirmed the feasibility and accuracy of 3D Non-restraint master interface that can offer the intuitive motion of non-contact hardware handle. As a result, we can expect the high intuitiveness, dexterousness of surgical robot.

  • In this paper, we propose a user interface technique based on embedded sensors applying to apps in smart phone. Especially, we implement avata generation application using image filtering technique for photo image in smart phone. In the application, The embedded sensors are used as intuitive user interface to adjust the image filtering effect for making user satisfied effect in real time after the system produced the image filtering effect for avatar. This technique provides not a simple typed method of parameter values adjustment but a new intuitively emotional adjustment method in image filtering applications. The proposed technique can use sound values from embedded mike sensor for adjusting key values of sketch filter effect if the smart phone user produces sound. Similiarly the proposed technique can use coordinate values from embedded acceleration sensor for adjusting masking values of oil painting filter effect and use brightness values from embedded light sensor for adjusting masking values of sharp filter effect. Finally, we implement image filtering application and evaluate efficiency and effectiveness for the proposed technique.

  • Tabletop display can take the benefits of the interactive device due to its possible user friendly input and display facilities simultaneously. Using this device, immersive edutainment content is effectively implemented with the convenient interactive interface. So considering this usefulness, tabletop display can be a very efficient device for constructing the edutainment system. In this paper, we describe a digitalized cooking edutainment contents based on the tabletop display interface. Enjoying our contents, we use the intuitive touch gestures for handling a variety of cooking actions. In the education effects such as the immersive strengthening and co-operation, the proposed system is more efficient interface than any other existing system. We implement the contents with the tabletop display and make sure about the efficiency of our proposed system. In the future, we will add more gestures to enhance the applicability of the intuitive interactive interface.

  • With the development of virtual reality technology, in recent years, user-friendly hand gesture interface has been more studied for natural interaction with a virtual 3D object. Most earlier studies on the hand-gesture interface are using relatively simple hand gestures. In this paper, we suggest an intuitive hand gesture interface for interaction with 3D object in the virtual reality applications. For hand gesture recognition, first of all, we preprocess various hand data and classify the data through the binary decision tree. The classified data is re-sampled and converted to the chain-code, and then constructed to the hand feature data with the histograms of the chain code. Finally, the input gesture is recognized by MCSVM-based machine learning from the feature data. To test our proposed hand gesture interface we implemented a 'Virtual Block' game. Our experiments showed about 99.2% recognition ratio of 16 kinds of command gestures and more intuitive and user friendly than conventional mouse interface.

  • In an intelligent man-machine interface, it is very effective to support human thinking and to be in communication in some intuitive fashion. For this, sharing experience between the party concerned, human operators(s) and the interface is essential. It is also necessary to keep mutual understanding in some conceptual levels. Here in the present paper, figures which are an aspect of concepts and form a basis of mental image are discussed.

  • Research in Human Computer Interface (HCI) is towards development of an application environment able to deal with interactions of both human and computers that can be more intuitive and efficient. This can be achieved by bridging the gap between the synthetic virtual environment and the natural physical environment. Thus a project called Tangible Space Initiative (TSI) has been launched by KIST. TSI is subdivided into Tangible Interface (TI) which controls 3D cyber space with user's perspective, Responsive Cyber Space (RCS) which creates and controls the virtual environment and Tangible Agent (TA) which senses and acts upon the physical interface environment on behalf of any components of TSI or the user. This paper is a brief introduction to a new generation of Human Computer Interface that bring user to a new era of interaction with computers in the future.

  • Evaluation of user interfaces has to be performed in an intuitive and subjective manner by experts especially when the problem comes to the complexity and consistency of sophisticated interface procedures. The manual analysis and evaluation of logical interfaces also tends to be slow and laborious. To make the evaluation more formal and objective, the criteria and the procedure with which the evaluation can proceed must be explicitly prescribed. Furthermore, to make the formal procedure as practical as subjective expert evaluation, the criteria must reflect the user knowledge of the target tasks since the task knowledge plays the role of a basis for users to understand the interface organizations and procedures. This paper describes ESTIM, a support system for task-based evaluation of user interface, that includes the interface evaluation criteria and implies an evaluation procedure. The support system can be used either in an interactive manner by the analyst during the evaluation or in an automatic evaluation mode. It was verified that the result of automatic evaluation by ESTIM matched the results of expert evaluation fairly well.
