  • 다양한 기능들이 휴대폰에 집약되고 있음에 따라, 사용자가 메뉴를 간편하게 선택할 수 있도록 도와주는 pointing Device의 역할은 매우 중요해지고 있다. 본 연구는 휴대폰에 내장된 pointing device 중 광센서와 pointing stick에 대한 사용성 평가를 통한 사용자의 조작 효율 및 조작 만족도 향상 요인 도출을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 각각의 입력장치가 적용된 휴대폰을 이용하여 객관적 평가와 주관적 평가를 수행하였다. 객관적 평가에서는 Fitts' law를 바탕으로 한 throughput 개념을 이용하여 커서 이동 및 선택 성능을 평가하였다. 또한 주관적 병가에서는 체크리스트를 이용하여 사용자의 수용도(user acceptance)를 평가하였다. 연구 결과, 광센서는 이동 방향에 따라 수행도 차이가 큰 것으로 나타났으며, pointing stick가 광센서에 비해 사용자의 수용도가 높게 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 추후 실제 휴대폰의 pointing Device 설계 및 적용 시에 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이라 예상된다.

  • In this paper, we propose a new pointing device that is replaced a mouse as the pointing device with. For reducing the existing pointing device's problem which had marker and high-cost, we develop a new pointing device using computer vision like as a similar human vision system. The proposed system first carries out a real-time movement tracking system using image data which are segmented by color modeling, and finally does the pointing action by 3-D coordinate calculated from stereo geometry information resulting from stereo matching of the segmented region.

  • A flexible pointing system mounted on top of a vehicle suffers from performance degradation due to bending vibrations as the vehicle runs on a bump course. In order to improve the pointing performance, the pointing structure's vibrations should be suppressed. In this paper, a nonlinear controller is designed to control the tip position of the pointing system while actively suppressing the vibrations. To cope with high order dynamics and nonlinearities of the plant and hydraulic actuating system, a two-stage sliding mode controller is devised. The desired actuating pressure is obtained in the first stage and then the in put current In the hydraulic servo system is computed to generate the pressure. The simulation results show the effectiveness of this scheme and improvements in pointing accuracy.

  • Target pointing guidance steers a vehicle to point at a target point at a given range Rs. In this paper, vehicle's motions relative to the target point are modeled by differential equations. Then a target pointing guidance law is derived using optimal control theories. In addition, it is shown that the proposed guidance law can achieve the goal of target pointing guidance whatever initial headings are.

  • In this paper, we propose a method to estimate pointing region in real-world from images of cameras. In general, arm-pointing gesture encodes a direction which extends from user's fingertip to target point. In the proposed work, we assume that the pointing ray can be approximated to a straight line which passes through user's face and fingertip. Therefore, the proposed method extracts two end points for the estimation of pointing direction; one from the user's face and another from the user's fingertip region. Then, the pointing direction and its target region are estimated based on the 2D-3D projective mapping between camera images and real-world scene. In order to demonstrate an application of the proposed method, we constructed an ICGS (interactive cinema guiding system) which employs two CCD cameras and a monitor. The accuracy and robustness of the proposed method are also verified on the experimental results of several real video sequences.

  • The ship-borne mobile down range telemetry antenna system having 4.6 m reflector antenna and 3-axis mounting structure at S-band requires the precise pointing accuracy at sea for the launch mission. Using the LEO satellites tracking, a method to determine and verify the antenna pointing and tracking performance, and to find the pointing bias which dominantly contributes to the pointing inaccuracy, is presented. Based upon the tests conducted on the Jeju sea and Pacific sea, the pointing bias is determined and its origin is also identified as the drift of the heading angle of the gyrocompass. The applied systematic correction taking into account the pointing bias, and the achieved improvement of the pointing accuracy are shown. Thanks to the correction, it is presented that this antenna tracked the launcher(KSLV-I) stably within the required pointing accuracy in the following KSLV-I third launch.

  • Geo-pointing is a function that maintains LOS(Line of Sight) to a stationary ground target by controlling azimuth and elevation angles of a EOS(Electro-Optical System) which are calculated from aircraft navigation data and target coordinates. In design and implementation of the geo-pointing, a transmission time delay between GPS/INS and EOS is a major degradation factor of the geo-pointing performance when the aircraft is rapidly maneuvered especially. In this paper, a kalman filter is designed to compensate the transmission time delay of aircraft navigation data. Simulation and test results show that the geo-pointing performance is enhanced by the proposed compensation technique.

  • FLIR(Forward Looking Infrared) geo-pointing is a function that helps pilots to see a target within the field of view under all coordinates and attitudes of helicopter. Geo-pointing controls FLIR LOS(line of sight) toward known target coordinates by using azimuth and elevation angles calculated from several information such as helicopter coordinates and attitudes, a FLIR position from a GPS antenna, and target coordinates. Geo-pointing performance has been tested and evaluated on the ground to save flight test costs and ensure flight safety. In this paper, design and implementation of a geo-pointing system is described with the results of performance test conducted on the ground test system.

  • A low earth orbit satellite with a fixed solar array always has a sun-pointing attitude during daylight, and changes into a nadir-pointing attitude for a imaging mission. Since external heating sources to the satellite panels are Earth irradiation and Albedo during most of daylight in a sun-pointing attitude, the thermal environment condition is relatively stable. However, direct sunlight which is the greatest environmental heating has an affect on the satellite panels during a mission period (10% of one orbit) in a nadir-pointing attitude. In satellite thermal design, thermal effects of a nadir-pointing mission attitude due to this thermal environment change need to be evaluated although the duration of a nadir-pointing attitude is short. Therefore, a nadir-pointing attitude during a mission is incorporated into thermal model and by the thermal analysis result, thermal effects on the satellite are investigated.

  • In this paper, a new method for controlling the pointing device using EOG(electrooculogram) signal generated from eye movement was suggested. The basic idea of the method is to control the direction of pointer, as using the results of measuring each component of the horizontal EOG and the vertical EOG by angle of eye-gaze. As a practical example, pointing device controlling the personal computer's pointer is manufactured. The designed pointing device consists of pre-amplifier, A/D converter, serial transmission device and PC program. That is, first, the EOG is amplified by pre-amplifier. Secondly, the amplified EOG is digitized and transmitted to personal computer by PIC16C74A. Finally, the software for controlling the pointer on personal computer is programed. As the result, the measured horizontal EOG and vertical EOG by eye-gaze angle had high linearity; the correlation coefficients of the regression line were 0.998 and 0.996 respectively. And the developed pointing device is able to control the personal computer's pointer, and the average of the errors between the objective value and the observed value had 3.77% for horizontal axis and 5.85% for vertical axis. The pointing device developed in this study is able to control personal computer's pointer by subject's eye movement, that is, the user's intention. Furthermore, the algorithm of this study is applicable for many field, such as a new method remote control, a new wheelchair control and so forth.
