  • Field trip education is frequently used in a primary education in Korea. However, it fails to provide specific research activities or feedback for students and lacks educational implication. We propose a mission-based field trip education using mobile phone. In this paper, we explain our design process, experiment at the zoo, and discuss the future work.

  • This paper presents a robust method for facial image synthesis under varying illumination by combining illumination correction and Poisson image processing techniques. The presented method automatically detects skin area and corrects highly saturated regions that can cause bad effects on the final synthesis image. The developed method can be applied to various facial synthesis applications by correcting illumination variations that can occur frequently on photos taken with a camera phone.

  • 본 논문에서는 모바일 증강현실에서 스마트 오브젝트 인식 및 트래킹을 위한 임베디드 마커 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 증강 현실 연구에서 주로 사용하는 마커는 임의의 패턴을 포함하고 대상 오브젝트와는 분리되어 있다. 이는 부자연스러운 시각적 장애 요인으로 작용한다. 또한 특정한 마커를 사용하기 위해 학습 과정을 거친 후 그 결과를 인식 모듈에서 일일이 등록해야 하는 번거로움이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 제안하는 임베디드 마커는 디스플레이 장치의 유무에 따라 고정형 또는 가변 형으로 분류된 스마트 오브젝트의 특성을 고려하여 오브젝트와 마커를 결합한다. 또한 통합된 학습과 인식 모듈을 통해 오브젝트의 추가 및 시스템 확장을 용이하게 한다. 제안된 시스템은 스마트 홈 테스트베드인 ubiHome 에 적용되었다. 또한 사용 성 평가를 통해 그 효용성을 분석하였다. 이러한 임베디드 마커를 사용하면 사용자는 보다 직관적으로 마커의 용도를 예측할 수 있고 대상물과의 시선을 일치시켜 자연스러운 증강현실을 경험할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • The battery lifetime is one of the most important factors in product qualities of mobile devices such as mobile phones, MP3 players, PMP. It is used to be displayed by a 'battery bar' icon with uniformly divided three or four blocks. However, several manufacturers of mobile phones have assigned uneven time ratios to each battery block because they believe that it can make users feel more long in battery lifetime. In this study, two experiments were performed. The first is to verify the effects of the uneven time ratios in each battery block on users' cognitive awareness of battery lifetime. The second is to investigate whether the compatibility between battery displays and actual time ratios affects the users' time perceptions. The results show that as low battery bar is maintained for a long time, users tend to be aware of the battery lifetime shorter. On the contrary, maintaining full battery status longer does not affect the users' time perception. These results can be applied as the guidelines for determining proper time ratios in designing the battery bar indicator of mobile devices.

  • In these days, recommendation service in mobile environments is in the limelight due to the spread of mobile devices and an increase of information owing to advancement of computer network. The restaurant recommendation system reflecting user preference was proposed. This system uses Bayesian network to model user preference and analytical hierarchical process to recommend restaurants, but static inference model for user preference used in the system has some limitations that cannot manage changing user preference and enormous user survey must be preceded. This paper proposes a learning method for Bayesian network based on user requests. The proposed method is implemented on mobile devices and desktop, and we show the possibility of the proposed method through experiments.

  • 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.

  • 새로운 사용자 경험의 향상을 위해 UI 의 개선방안을 모색할 때, 기존에 수행해 오던 일반적 사용성 평가 방법만으로는 모바일과 같이 복합적 컨텍스트를 가진 서비스 이용환경을 파악하는데 적지 않은 한계가 있다. 가령 특정 Task 수행시 Lead Time 측정과 같은 계량화된 사용성 평가방법을 통해서는 실제 사용자의 컨텍스트를 고려한 사용성의 수준(혹은 오류의 수준)에 대한 분석이 어려운 반면, In-depth Interview 로 대표되는 통상의 정성적인 사용자 리서치 방법은 장애의 요인과 결과간의 논리적인 상관관계를 명확화하거나 실측적인 개선 성과로써 도출해 내는데 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 정량적인 사용성 평가방법에 정성적인 사용자 리서치 수행기법 및 통계적 기법을 결합하여, 실측 가능하고 설득력을 가진 근거 데이터를 지지하는 한편 한계로 남겨져 왔던 행위결과에 대한 요인에도 적절한 인사이트를 제시할 수 있는 대안적 사용성 평가 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

  • The naval ship consists of a variety of classes, including patrol, frigate, destroyer and landing ship. There are various means of communication between combat ships belonging to the mobile fleet, including voice network, text message network and tactical data link. The operation at the existing mobile fleet level was conducted mainly on voice and text message, and tactical data link were used mainly to share tactical information between combat ships. This study intended to design HCI for commander like as KDDX of fleet level based on tactical data link, a means of communication between ships, to secure operational control of the mobile fleet. Recently, naval ships have been developed in the organization of various sensors, weapons and tactical data links integrated into the combat management system, and this study also designed the HCI based on the tactical data links integrated in the combat management system. The purpose of this study was to secure the operational efficiency of the tactical data link based on the combat management system in operation of the mobile fleet, and to improve the capability of the fleet commander to recognize the battlefield situation awareness.

  • As the mobile content industry is growing, mobile health (m-health) market is expanding based on various contents. It has developed in the way of utilizing health contents through mobile device such as smart phone among young people. This study aims to examine the usage of m-health application and factors of continuous usage among students in Seoul National University. The result is expected to provide a foundation for future health promotion programs utilizing m-health. The study analyzes the difference of application usage tendency based on demographic characteristic and the continuous usage, and compared the level of knowledge, attitude, belief, and practice (KABP) of mobile health application. 28% of the total sample population uses the application continuously, and their KABP level was higher than that of users that stopped using. This study goes beyond the previous studies of service satisfaction and acceptance analysis on the marketing level, and is meaningful in that it has analyzed the m-health application usage from the public health point of view.
