The in put system using the touch screen directly makes the input signals by the contact on the screen without the assistance of peripherals such as a pen or hands. These kinds of input systems using the flexible hands is maximizing suppleness and intuition of the input rather than those systems using a keyboard or a mouse which are moving a cursor or typing a word. However, using hands for an input may give rise to a mistake in control. And there are few interfaces utilizing the touch screen. Incorrectness and insufficiency of the interface are the weak point of the touch screen systems. In this paper, we propose the dial menu user interface for the mobile devices using touch screen for an efficient input. In this method, it consists of 2 states(Inactive states, Active states) and 4 actions(Rotation, Zoom in, and Zoom out, and Click). The intuitive control utilizing the suggested method overcomes the incorrect pointing, weak point of the touch screen system, and boosts the searching menu by utilizing the drag function of the touch screen.

Most emerging smart phones support capacitive touch sensors. It renders existing gesture-based interfaces not suitable since they were developed for the resistive touch sensors and pen-based input. Unlike the flick gestures from the existing gesture interfaces, the finger flick gesture used in this paper reduces the workload about half by selecting the target and the command to perform on the target at a single touch input. With the combination with multi-touch interface, it supports various menu commands without having to learn complex gestures, and is suitable for the touch-based devices hence it minimizes input error. This research designs and implements the multi-touch and flick interface to provide an effective file management system on the smart phones with capacitive touch input. The evaluation proves that the suggested interface is superior to the existing methods on the capacitive touch input devices.

In this paper, we propose a method that generates a sketch likely to be drawn by a human from a real image(a computer generated image or a photo image). The method can create human friendly images with pen strokes by using image processing techniques such as spatial filters. In order to create the human friendly image, first, we made the tiny unnecessary contours. Second, we made the second image by inverting the first image and performed a processing similar to the first processing. Last, we subtracted the second image from the first image and added a hatch to it. The sequence of processing enables us to generate a human friendly image with line shading, likely to be sketched by water pen compared to the past method(pencil hatching and sketch effects). Also the proposed method can represent the sketch effects more effectively with applying different hatch to the shading area of a input image.

The integrated circuits such as inverters, ring oscillators, NAND and NOR gates, and rectifiers were fabricated on PEN substrate by using pentacene TFTs. The OTFTs used bottom contact structure and produced the average mobility of $0.26\;cm^2/V.sec$ and on/off current ratio of $10^5$. All circuits worked successfully like the simulation results. Especially, the rectifier was able to operate up to 1 MHz input signals, and ring oscillator exhibited oscillation frequency of 1MHz at-40V.

Commercial video scope use CCD sensor and frame grabber for image capture and A/D interface but application limited by input resolution and high cost. In this paper we introduce portable video scope using CMOS sensor, USB pen and tuner card (low frame grabber) in place of commercial CCD sensor and frame grabber. Our video scope serves as an essential link between advancing commercial technology and research, providing cost effective solutions for educational, engineering and medical applications across an entire spectrum of needs. The software implementation is done using Direct Show in second version after initial trials using First version VFW (video for window), which gave very low frame rate. Our video scope operates on windows 98, ME, XP, 2000. The drawback of our video scope is crossover problem in output images caused due to interpolation, which has to be rectified for more efficient performance.

향후 보안시장을 이끌어갈 생체인식 기술은 현재까지 많은 발전을 거듭하고 있다. 이미 알려진 바와 같이 생체인식은 신체의 여러 부분들과 신체적 특징, 개인의 습관들이 이용되는데 전자의 경우 지문, 얼굴, 홍채, 망막, 음성, 필체, 정맥 등의 인식이 있고 후자의 경우 타이핑 습관, 걸음걸이 습관, 필기 습관 등이 해당된다. 본 연구에서는 서명인식을 필체 자체의 특징에 관련된 정보를 추출하여 인식하는 방법과는 달리 개개인의 필기 습관에 주목하여 서명을 할 때 펜을 눌러쓴 정도, 펜을 사용하는 위치 및 펜을 얼마나 뉘어 쓰는지 세워 쓰는지, 왼손잡이인지 오른손잡이인지 등의 동적 정보에 따른 특성을 알 수 있는 펜의 방위각과 기울임 정도에 대한 생체정보를 추출하고 현재 음성인식 등 여러 분야에서 사용되는 ICA를 사용하여 추출한 서명데이터의 생체정보를 분리.추출하여 이를 개개인의 검증데이터로 활용하는 방법을 제안한다.

Electronic Ink is a stored data in the form of the handwritten text or the script without converting it into ASCII by handwritten recognition on the pen-based computers and Personal Digital Assistants(PDAs) for supporting natural and convenient data input. One of the most Important issue is to search the electronic ink in order to use it. We proposed and implemented a script matching algorithm for the electronic ink. Proposed matching algorithm separated the input stroke into a set of primitive stroke using the curvature of the stroke curve. After determining the type of separated strokes, it produced a stroke feature vector. And then it calculated the distance between the stroke feature vector of input strokes and one of strokes in the database using the dynamic programming technique. We did various experiments and our algorithm showed high matching rate over 97.7% for only the Korean script and 94% for the data mixed Korean with the Chinese character.

In this paper, we introduce a system in which car navigation scenario is plugged multimodal interface based on multimodal middleware. In map-based system, the combination of speech and pen input/output modalities can offer users better expressive power. To be able to achieve multimodal task in car environments, we have chosen SCXML(State Chart XML), a multimodal authoring language of W3C standard, to control modality components as XHTML, VoiceXML and GPS. In Network Manager, GPS signals from navigation software are converted to EMMA meta language, sent to MultiModal Interaction Runtime Framework(MMI). Not only does MMI handles GPS signals and a user's multimodal I/Os but also it combines them with information of device, user preference and reasoned RDF to give the user intelligent or personalized services. The self-simulation test has shown that middleware accomplish a navigational multimodal task over multiple users in car environments.

A PDA has limitation of storage space and inconvenience of Pen-based equipment to input. To solve these problems, this paper implemented that previous Speech Recognition provides using XML(extensile Markup Language) Web Service and PDA Client is possible to use speech command by request Speech Recognition Web Service. This system consists of Mobile Client and Speech Recognition Web Service Provider. The Mobile Client transmits user information and speech data to the Speech Recognition Web Service Provider using DIME(Direct Internet Message Encapsulation). The Speech Recognition Web Service Provider returns recognition results and user name only to an authorized Mobile Client. So We are able to use speech service without installing Speech Recognition or Speech DB in PDA.

We have researched and developed the caricature generation system PICASSO. PICASSO outputs the deformed facial caricature by comparing input face with prepared mean face. We specialized it as PICASSO-2 for exhibiting a robot at Aichi EXPO2005. This robot enforced by PICASSO-2 drew a facial caricature on the shrimp rice cracker with the laser pen. We have been recently exhibiting another revised robot characterized by a brush drawing. This system takes a couple of facial images with CCD camera, extracts the facial features from the images, and generates the facial caricature in real time. We experimentally evaluated the performance of the caricatures using a lot of data taken in Aichi EXPO2005. As a result it was obvious that this system were not sufficient in accuracy of eyebrow region extraction and mouth detection. In this paper, we propose the improved methods for eyebrow region extraction and mouth detection.
