The latest programming paradigm has been mostly geared toward object-oriented programming and visual programming based on the object-oriented programming. However, object-oriented programming has a more difficult and complicated concept compared with that of existing structural programming technique; thus it has been very difficult to educate students in the IT-related department. This study designed and implemented a Java robot training kit in which the Java virtual machine is built so that it may enhance the desire and motivation of students for learning the object-oriented programming using the training kit which is possible to attach various input and output devices and to control a robot. The developed Java robot training kit is able to communicate with a computer through the USB interface, and it also enables learners to manufacture a robot for education and to practice applied programming because there is a general purpose input and output port inside the kit, through which diverse input and output devices, DC motor, and servo motor can be operated. Accordingly, facing the IT fusion era, the wall between the academic circles and the major becomes lower and the need for introducing education about creative engineering object-oriented programming language is emerging. At this point, the Java robot training kit developed in this study is expected to make a great commitment in this regard.

An application implementation that allows users to train yoga posture based on the landmark of yoga posture of yoga instructors obtained from the Google Firebase ML Kit was introduced. Using the ML Kit, the user's posture is classified and landmarks corresponding to each joint are obtained. The accuracy measurement reference value for the yoga posture is set through the angle formed by the joints of the obtained landmark. The accuracy between the reference landmark for the yoga posture of professional yoga instructors and the landmark for the user's pose through the ML Kit was compared. According to the accuracy reference value, information on malfunction and correct motion is provided to the user through Text-to-Speech (TTS). Users are managed effectively with Firebase, and a system that displays the amount of exercise through a counter and timer when the user performs an exercise that meets the accuracy reference value was explained.
