Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a self triage application for rescue requests by disaster vulnerable populations. Literature was reviewed in order to define application trends and needs. Methods: Development of the self triage application was conducted in six stages as a hybrid model (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation, modification) of the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model and Driscoll & Alexander model. Application system function and contents were tried with 6 experts and 4 people with hearing impairments. Results: Expert assessment of the application for self triage showed that reliability at 5 points was the highest, followed by utility at 4.8 points. Scores for quickness and expressiveness were low at 4.6 and 4.2 points respectively. User acceptability assessment of the application was measured at 66.73 points. Conclusion: The results show that the application for self triage is helpful to disaster vulnerable populations by providing relief in disaster situations. It is expected that use of this application as a self rescue ability can be made available for disaster situations.

1990년대 후반 이후 등장한 N세대 N generation라는 신조어는 넓게는 '10대 후반과 20대 초반의 새로운 세대'라는 'new'의 개념에서의 N세대 new generation를, 좁게는 '네트워크 network를 자유자재로 다루는 세대' 또는 '네트워크 속에서 생활하는 세대' 라는 '디지털 유저 digital user'의 개념에서의 N세대 network generation를 의미한다. 다시 말해, N세대는 디지털 디바이스의 정보와 지식을 바탕으로 자유롭게 디지털 세상을 넘나드는 젊은 디지털 유저 층이다. 본 연구의 목적은 디지털 디바이스 프로덕트 광고의 한 사례를 기호학적으로 분석하여 '"디지털 디바이스+ N세대=디지털 코드"라는 광고공식'과 '외연과 내연이 합해져 "기술적 시니피앙과 감성적 시니피에"의 상호작용적 조합 interaction'을 찾아보는 것에 있다. 여기서는 광고 분석의 사례로써 삼성 KENOX V4 광고를 이용한다. KENOX V4 는 N세대를 겨냥한 디지털 디바이스 프로덕트이며, 이 광고는 '외국 브랜드를 제압하는 의미의 V'라는 코드를 사용하고 있다. 자기만의 주장을 당당하게 할 줄 아는 N세대가 소년기에 가졌던 한국이라는 자부심이 그가 성인기에 들어선 이후에도 V라는 승리의 표상으로 나타나고 있는 것이다. V4 광고의 이미지는 N세대를 상징하는 강력한 '디지털 코드digital code'를 담아내고 있으며, 그 V4의 메시지는 '4백만 화소'라는 '기술적 시니피앙 technological significant'과 '4가지 승리'라는 '감성적 시니피에 emotional signifie'의 상호작용적 조합을 구성하고 있다.
