The development of CG technology throughout the 2000s brought about a significant growth in the animation market. This phenomenon led to an increase in the number of people required by related industries, which led to an increase in the number of related majors in universities. CG application technologies are becoming more common with the advent of YouTube and virtual YouTubers, but high technology is still required for students to get a job. This situation is not easy to include both technological and creative skills in the college animation curriculum. In order to increase students' creativity, we need a lot of production experience, which requires a lot of knowledge and time if we only use tools like Maya and 3D Max. In this paper, We tried to devote more time to storytelling by minimizing the technical process required for production and proceeding with repetitive or difficult processes for content creation using third-party programs. And through the 12-week class, the experimental production process was applied to the process from planning to completion of animation works that students would submit to the advertisement contest.

In recent years, the application of deep learning method to computer vision has shown to achieve great performances. Thus, many research projects have also applied deep learning technology to railroad defect detection. In this paper, we have reviewed the researches that applied computer vision based deep learning method to railroad defect detection and inspection, and have discussed the current trend and the direction of those researches. Many research projects were targeted to operate automatically without visual inspection of human and to work in real-time. Therefore, methods to speed up the computation were also investigated. The reduction of the number of learning parameters was considered important to improve computation efficiency. In addition to computation speed issue, the problem of annotation was also discussed in some research projects. To alleviate the problem of time consuming annotation, some kinds of automatic segmentation of the railroad defect or self-supervised methods have been suggested.

In recent years, Unreal Engine has been increasingly included in the animation process produced in the studio. In this case, there will be more than one of main software, and it is very important to accurately transfer data between the software and Unreal Engine. In animation data, not only the animation data of the character but also the animation data of objects interacting with the character must be individually produced and transferred. Most of the objects that interact with the character have a condition of constraints with the part of character. In this paper, I tried to stipulate the production process for extracting animation data of constrained objects, and to analyze why users experience difficulties due to the complexity of the regulations in the process of executing them. And based on the flowchart prescribed for user convenience, I created a program using a Python script to prove the user's convenience. Finally, by comparing the results generated according to the manual flowchart with the results generated through the script command, it was found that the data were consistent.

Developing curriculum in the field of illustration is the main purpose of this study. During the past 30 years, illustration industry has achieved remarkable success in South Korea. Moreover the trends in styles are various today. Aspiring Korean illustrators were awarded prizes by authoritative international organization for their illustrated picture books lately. Regardless of achievement in the field of illustration, an adequate curriculum to educate illustrators was never developed. Facing the challenging circumstances of the 21th century, professors of illustration need to be specialized and they must study the ultimate curriculum of illustration. Since illustration is a visual language, the kernels of education for illustration are teaching the nature of visual communication, getting the objectivity of communicating and establishing a professional techniques for expression. Even though the basic formative arts training courses are fairly important to students who major in illustration, it is impossible to see the achievement with the current situation of curriculum. In order to make good products of illustration and competent illustrator, we must try to create education system which well-matched for an independent genre of illustration field. Besides 1 hope this study will be used as one of the teaching methods for the field of animation and cartoon as well as for the field of illustration.

Nowadays, most major automobile manufacturers are very interested, and actively involved, in developing driver alcohol detection system for safety (DADSS) that serves to prevent driving under the influence. DADSS measures the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) from the driver's breath and limits the ignition of the engine of the vehicle if the BAC exceeds the reference value. In this study, to optimize the sensor array of the DADSS, we selected sensors by using three different methods, configured the sensor arrays, and then compared their performance. The Wilks' lambda, stepwise elimination and filter method (using a principal component) were used as the sensor selection methods [2,3]. We compared the performance of the arrays, by using the selectivity and sensitivity as criteria, and Sammon mapping for the analysis of the cluster type of each gas. The sensor array configured by using the stepwise elimination method exhibited the highest sensitivity and selectivity and yielded the best visual result after Sammon mapping.

The purposes of this study are first, to plan communication strategies for promoting the 1st National Science Festival and other events of the April 1997's Science Month in Koreas; second, to monitor communication activities done for those events; third, to evaluate effects of communication activities. Both the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Korea Science Foundation were arranged to execute our planned communication strategies. Basically we utilized the three sequences of human behavioral condition : Exposure, attention, and cognition. For planning, we suggested concrete communication strategies for each sequence, for example, first, those for bringing exposure to every event, second, those for bringing attention to the event, and third, those for bringing cognition of the event. Those communication strategies were suggested to use specifics of newspapers, television programs, radio programs, commercial and corporate magazines, electric visual sign advertisements on the street, and computer communication. For monitoring and evaluation, we used the same three sequences as the criteria. For example, we monitored and evaluated how much exposure, attention or cognition an event got or which specific medium contributed to exposure to, cognition of an event. For monitoring, graduate students were dispatched to examine each event through watching and interviewing. For evaluation, about 950 of event participants and non-participants were surveyed by means of face-to-face interview. Overall, we found that newspaper articles and television programs contributed a lot to people's exposure to events of the April 1997's Science Month. Especially, newspaper played a major role of heightening exposure. However, most events and/or their science and technology content failed to get salient attention and its following active cognition. The 1st National Science Festival attracted much exposure, but had some problems of disorder and commercialism. This sharp increase of exposure and some attention were believed to have reinforced people's, especially event participants' positive opinion of science and technology which is part of scientific culture.

The purpose of this paper is to consider how the Korean major broadcasts employs their broadcasting human resources and makes use of them in connection with broadcasting education as media education in universities. The problems deals with broadcasting education in universities, particularly with regard to the point of broadcasts view, with the training & reeducation systems and with the academic-industrial cooperation. By using depth interview with experts(directors of personnel management of the broadcasts), this paper explores meaning of media education for the training of broadcasting human resources. In the opinions of the responsible officers for personnel management, it distinctly exists different points of view between the related academic circle and the broadcasting on-site. The related academic circle criticizes the chronic invariability of broadcasts, and the broadcasts the impractical broadcasting education of the academic circle.

There are a lot of multimedia functions getting included in mobile devices recently, not only simple audio but visual functions as well, such as video playing, game and web browsing. Such the visual multimedia functions brought the strong requirement for much bigger LCD Display and high resolution. And the brightness of LCD is also one of major requirements and it is required to be more bright. However, LCD brightness is limited to increase because of power consumption. It occupies nearly 30% of the whole system power. This thesis suggests an effective and simple method of adjusting the LCD backlight brightness, considering a characteristic of battery and user pattern.

This study analyzes characteristics related to Kineticism found in different kinds of displays and arts in order to contemplate modern window displays. The standard of analysis is based on kinetic arts pioneer George Rickey's six display factors. Projection features and movements were categorized into "Direct movements," "Indirect movements," and "Relative movements." Results were obtained through analysis of different examples of each category. First, the most observed form of Kineticism was direct movements on the window display. Along with the development of science and techniques, a variety of divergent motional methods has arisen. After that followed indirect movement, which uses visual media and lights for presentation. The third was relative movements, which provides communication in practical experience; users' motion is used to provide modification in vision. Fourth, we observed that direct movements and indirect movements can express fluidity depending on materials, inducing a sense of tension within the window display through visual stimuli together with dynamism from mechanical exposure. Fifth, when direct movements pair with relative movements, it triggers customer participation; though it does not deliberately induce participation, the effects are beyond expectation. Sixth, if indirect movements meet relative movements, the motion of lights offers a major stimulation to the customers along with various expressions, thus achieving an interactive domain.
