We have developed a serious game for the elderly named 'Paldokangsan3' as a next version of 'Paldokangsan2' which was a walking game with memorization in shopping streets using controllers of hand buttons and foot boards with PC developed in 2012. The interface of had buttons and food boards were changed into the interface of motion capture with the aid of Kinect. The expected effects are improvement of memorization, improvement of concentration ability to find out items in the vision, improvement of vitality through physical walking actions, as well as improvement of mental health through entertainment activities of game play. We have tested 25 volunteers of more than 65 years old in Cheonan city community center for the elderly for 2 weeks. We got the result that the game play was showing positive effectiveness on memorization, physical exercise and self-esteem in mental health area of the elderly.

Recently there has been an increasing interest on tangible games in which human motions are recognized rather than the handling of keyboards and mouses. Such games require a motion controller for recognizing the motions of users. In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of values of accelerator sensors which are generated by a user who perform a tennis swing while holding a smartphone with his/her hand, and propose a method for motion recognition based on DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform). The proposed method enables a smartphone to serve as a motion controller, so that a user can enjoy a tangible tennis game without eliminates a need for buying the device. We developed a tennis game prototype using the proposed method. To our experiment, our method showed a high recognition rate and the usefulness in the game.

Motion Capture in multimedia contents of the imagination world is utilized in various field such as game, movie, TV. Motion Capture technology of most of game is utilized. As well as is more realistic if use motion Capture and superior time and monetary aspect than previous key frame (Key-Framing) way as well as can display screen that do dynamic, there is more excellent advantage in qualitative aspect. But, is utilizing in some specialty companies and use example was not informed much about problem when is very lacking, and utilize yet in learned circles. Extract motion data of various action using optic motion Capture of motion Capture equipment in this treatise, and investigated about problem that appear when applied in character that is different from a person.

This paper aims at providing a shooter game interface which enhances the game's realism by recognizing user's hand gestures using the Leap Motion. In this paper, we implemented the functions such as shooting, moving, viewpoint change, and zoom in/out, which are necessary in shooter games, and confirmed through user test that the game interface using familiar and intuitive hand gestures is superior to the conventional mouse/keyboard in terms of ease-to-manipulation, interest, extendability, and so on. Specifically, the user satisfaction index(1~5) was 3.02 on average when using the mouse/keyboard interface and 3.57 on average when using the proposed hand gesture interface.

User interface/experience and realistic game manipulation play an important role in virtual reality first-person-shooting game. This paper presents an intuitive hands-free interface of gaming interaction scheme for FPS based on user's gesture recognition and VR controller. We focus on conventional interface of VR FPS interaction, and design the player interaction wearing head mounted display with two motion controllers; leap motion to handle low-level physics interaction and VIVE tracker to control movement of the player joints in the VR world. The FPS prototype system shows that the design interface helps to enjoy playing immersive FPS and gives players a new gaming experience.

This paper presents a cell-based motion control strategy for soccer playing mobile robots. In the central robot motion planner, the planar ground is divided into rectangular cells with variable sizes and motion indices to which direction the mobile robot should move. At every time the multiple objects-the goal gate, ball, and robots-detected, integer values of motion indices are assigned to the cells occupied by mobile robots. Once the indices being calculated, the most desirable state-action pair is chosen from the state and action sets to achieve successful soccer game strategy. The proposed strategy is computationally simple enough to be used for fast robotic soccer system.

This study aims to develop the game character to encompass more complicated motions, an upgrade from simple actions, to demonstrate different emotional state. The character takes a medium role in describing various situations by applying the motion of pantomimist and making a connection to the 3D character action. Motion acting is an upgraded version of the basic motion to show various emotional phases such as joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure. Moreover, it delivers clear messages through emotional acting in opposition to symbolic language and provides various perspectives of motion acting.

This study suggests a technique to implement the production of animation by blending between key frame animation and motion capture animation through short animation 'Drip.' It reduced the time taken to produce an animation by not only enabling efficient process management through mutual organic connection but also conducting a process of mutually making up for weak points of key frame animation and motion capture animation. Through this, it was intended to be helpful in efficient animation production by overcoming the limitation of key frame animation and motion capture animation and perceiving and applying a complex process.

The Grand-Touring is a game motion simulator that simulates the race-car driving motion with three hydraulic cylinders which connect the platform and base in parallel. Its motion control system consists of the PC-based main controller and micro-controller based sub-controller. The former one process the dynamic image of race-car in response to the driver's action and computes the reference command for each cylinder and the latter one is designed for the tracking control of hydraulic cylinder and interfacing the auxiliary signals between various sensors/actuator and main controller. In this research, we developed the sub-controller that implements the required functions of Grand-Touring and prove the overall performance with experiments.

In this paper, we propose a novel background segmentation and feature point extraction method of a human motion for the augmented reality game. First, our method transforms input image from RGB color space to HSV color space, then segments a skin colored area using double threshold of H, S value. And it also segments a moving area using the time difference images and then removes the noise of the area using the Hessian affine region detector. The skin colored area with the moving area is segmented as a human motion. Next, the feature points for the human motion are extracted by calculating the center point for each block in the previously obtained image. The experiments on various input images show that our method is capable of correct background segmentation and feature points extraction 12 frames per second.
