In this paper, we detect and track vehicles by type based on highway daytime driving videos taken with black boxes for vehicles. In addition, we design a real-time MR contents production method that can be newly created by placing substitute videos of each type of detected vehicles in the same location as the new background video. To detect and track vehicles by type, we use the YOLO algorithm. And we also use the mask technique based on RGB color for substitute videos of each type of vehicles detected. The size of the vehicle substitute videos to be used for MR content are substituted by the same size as the area size of the detected vehicles. In this paper, we confirm that real-time MR contents design is possible as a result of experiments and simulations and believe that It will be usefully utilized in the field of VR contents.

In a competitive media environment, Internet Protocol television (IPTV) has gained appeal because of its essential characteristics, 'Internet and Interactivity'. Our study aims to explore predictors that affect IPTV-VOD adoption within the context of competing media (i.e., existing multi-channel video programming services, such as cable television and digital broadcasting satellite services). In addition, this study examines if IPTV-VOD functions as a substitute for existing multi-channel services, such as cable television and direct broadcasting satellite services. A self-report survey through face-to-face interviews was conducted in Seoul metropolitan area and other six big cities. Our findings showed that primary factors for adopting an IPTV-VOD are: age of user, subjective importance of terrestial broadcasting services, real-time terrestrial broadcasting services, and other interactive service characteristics, such as time-shifting. Also, IPTV-VOD services were found to be a substitute for existing multi-channel video programming services.

Background: Video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS) is being used as a therapeutic modality in many diseases in which thoracotomy has been used. We studied that the VATS can substitute the thoracotomy in benign esophageal disease. Material and Method: Group I (n=18) underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery, and group II(n=19) thoracotomy. Group I includes 14 leiomyomas and 4 achalasias. Group II includes 16 leiomyomas and 3 achalasias. Operative technique is enucleation in the leiomyoma and modified Heller's myotomy in the achalasia. Analyzing factors of operation-efficacy are anesthetic time, operation time, hospital stay, chest tube drainage amount and chest tube removal day. The degree of the postoperative pain is assessed by the frequency of opioid analgesics injection. Result: There was no death in both groups. There were 5 complications in the group I and 2 in the group II. Prolonged pleural effusion and restenosis of achalasia occurred to 1 patient in each group. In the group I, there were 1 temporaty vocal cord palsy and 2 mucosal tear leading to thoracotomy. There were no differences in anesthesia time, operation time, hospital stay, total chest tube drainage amount, chest tube removal day and frequency of opioid analgesics injection. The amount of the chest tube drainage at POD 1 day was significantly lower in group I(155.6$\pm$77.8cc) than in group II(572.8$\pm$280.1cc)(p<0.05). Conclusion: The results of our data showed that video-assisted thoracic surgery for benign esophageal disease is as effective as thoracotomy and in addition, cosmetic effect is much better. We concluded VATS may be a substitute for thoracotomy in benign esophageal disease.

Objective : Though the operating microscope (OM) has been the standard optical system in neurosurgery, a new technology called three-dimensional (3D) exoscope has emerged as an alternative. Herein, two types of 3D exoscopes for brain tumor surgery are presented. In addition, the advantages and limitations compared with the OM are discussed. Methods : In the present study, 3D exoscope VOMS-100 or VITOM 3D was used in 11 patients with brain tumor who underwent surgical resection; the Kinevo 900 OM was used only in emergency. After completion of all surgeries, the participants were surveyed with a questionnaire regarding video image quality on the display monitor, handling of equipment, ergonomics, educational usefulness, 3D glasses, and expectation as a substitute for the OM. Results : Among 11 patients, nine patients underwent neurosurgical resection with only 3D exoscope; however, two patients required additional aid with the OM due to difficulty in hemostasis. Regarding video image quality, VITOM 3D was mostly equivalent to the OM, but VOMS-100 was not. However, both 3D exoscopes showed advantages in accessibility of instruments in the surgical field and occupied less space in the operating theater. Differences in ergonomics and educational usefulness between the exoscopes were not reported. Respondents did not experience discomfort in wearing 3D glasses and thought the exoscopes could be currently, and in the future, used as a substitute for the OM. Conclusion : Although many neurosurgeons are not familiar with 3D exoscopes, they have advantages compared with the OM and similar image quality. Exoscopes could be a substitute for OM in the future if some limitations are overcome.

In this research, a subject substitute STEAM program was developed in context of a trend of STEAM education and a new science contents in a 2009 revised curriculum, which can replace the 2009 revised curriculum contents of 'Sound' unit in the third and the fourth grade. The developed program was taught to the 4th graders in a field. After applying the program, how students acknowledge the subject substitute STEAM program was analyzed through questionnaire. The research results were as follows. First, the subject substitute STEAM program of 3 sub programs was developed with centered around 'sound' unit for 4th graders. Second, students made a positive estimation of the STEAM program because of various activities and learning subject related to daily life. Third, they considered difficult term, necessary craft skills in creative design, understanding scientific principle and a lot of necessary time as difficulties of the STEAM program. And they also recognized that making stuff activity and learning aid material like activity sheet, picture and video helped to understand a lesson. Lastly, students had a positive thinking or negative thinking about STEAM program before they learn. But after learning the STEAM program, all of them showed their positive attitude to the STEAM program.

Efficient depth map coding is very crucial to the multi-view plus depth (MVD) format of 3-D video representation, as the quality of the synthesized virtual views highly depends on the accuracy of the depth map. Depth map contains smooth area within an object but distinct boundary, and these boundary areas affect the visual quality of synthesized views significantly. In this paper, we characterize the depth map by an auto-covariance analysis to show the locally anisotropic features of depth map. According to the characterization analysis, we propose an efficient depth map coding scheme, in which the directional discrete cosine transforms (DDCT) is adopted to substitute the conventional 2-D DCT to preserve the boundary information and thereby increase the quality of synthesized view. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme achieves better performance than that of conventional DCT with respect to the bitrate savings and rendering quality.

With respect to the advent of realistic media, the so-called future cinema theory or the theory of the end of cinema that cinema will be transformed by the advent of realistic media, or that realistic media will expel film media and replace them are being put forward as if they were orthodoxy. Therefore, this paper argues that the future cinematic theory and the theory of the end of cinema the cinema are inferred from the false premise that the superiority and inferiority relationship and substitute relationship established only between video media of the same type with the same properties are also established even between realistic media and film media, which have different properties. And it is concluded that realistic media and film media will coexist because they have different properties, functions, uses, and utilities.

At the on-site of broadcasting production, the light source of tungsten halogen has been used as a primary light source for representing video images. Although tungsten halogen light has drawn attention in terms of the color reproducibility which is more similar to the sun light than that of other light sources, meanwhile it had problems in energy efficiency. Recently, the LED light source with high efficiency and long lifetime of the energy source has started getting attention as a substitute light source at the broadcast field. Because of the unique light emission principles, compared with tungsten halogen, LED light source has different characteristics in the quality of the light projected from the light source and color reproduction of the video image through a camera. These characteristics cause the delayed introduction of the LED as the broadcast light source. In this study we measured the quality characteristics of the flatness of the color reproduction and light of the LED light source and will present the experimental data whether it is suitable as the broadcasting light source compared to a reference light source of tungsten halogen. In addition, we suggested the future challenges and standards which are needed to expand usage of LED as a broadcast light source.

Reportedly it says that 45% teenagers in the United State exchange the SMS with their friends during television watching. In other word TV viewing moulds the social community between audiences. In terms of social television it is all about interaction or communication technology relevant to TV watching as well as social behaviour. Besides it integrates voice communication, text chat, context awareness, TV recommendations, ratings, video conference and so forth. So far it approaches the conceptual stage or pilot production and remains more research and development. This study is to scrutinise whether the functionality of social TV enables to substitute for social activities of TV viewers or not.
