  • 최근 프로젝터를 기반으로 사용자가 원하는 위치에 영상을 제공하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행중에 있다. 프로젝터는 투사 방향이 정확하지 않으면 영상왜곡이 발생되며, 영상왜곡은 일반적으로 기하보정 변환행렬을 사용하여 보정한다. 기존의 연구는 선행작업으로 그물형태의 점을 투사하거나 또는 특정 마커를 설치해서 기하보정 변환행렬을 계산한다. 이 방법들은 투사방향이 변화될 때 마다 선행작업을 요구하므로 실시간 기하보정을 수행할 수 없다. 본 논문은 투사방향이 변화될 때에도 기하보정 변환행렬을 동시에 계산하여 보정된 영상을 제공하는 실시간 기하보정 시스템을 제안한다. 우리의 시스템은 웹카메라를 사용하여 실시간으로 기하보정 변환행렬을 계산하여, 다이렉트쇼(Directshow) 기술을 사용하여 동영상 프레임을 추출하고, 추출된 프레임이미지를 기하보정 변환행렬을 사용하여 워핑(warping) 함으로써 수행한다.

  • In our life, stories are ubiquitous. Such stories of our lives are shared during counseling and psychotherapy. Modern storytelling is not limited to image and digital media. It encompasses various media, including offline contents such as festivals and theme parks. Furthermore, it is also utilized in film therapy. Film therapy refers to all the methods that utilize films and image media in counseling and psychotherapy. This paper summarizes and analyzes film therapy that utilizes storytelling. As the result of this analysis, it was found that we could gain insight into the identity of patients and their treatment through the storytelling that utilized films.

  • The ubiquitous smart home is the home of future that takes advantage of context information from user and home environment and provides automatic home services for the user. User's location and motion are the most important contexts in the ubiquitous smart home. This paper presents a method positioning user's location using four cameras and some home context parameter together with user preferences provided. Some geometry math problems would be raised to figure out approximately which area is monitored by cameras. The moving object is detected within the image frames and then simulated in a 2D window to present visually where user is located and show his moving. The moving ways are statistically recorded and used for predicting user's future moving.

  • 컴퓨팅 환경이 유비쿼터스 환경으로 변화함에 따라 정보의 량은 증가하지만, 사용자가 이 모든 정보를 수용하기에는 한계가 있다. 그래서 유비쿼터스 환경에서는 장치 스스로 상황을 인지하고 능동적으로 처리할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 블루투스 라디오 신호 세기를 기반하여 위치 인지를 하고 이를 바탕으로 이동중인 사용자에게 동적으로 멀티미디어 스트리밍 스위칭 서비스를 제공하는 u-MESSAGE(ubiquitous MEdia Stream Switcher At Genius home Entertainment) 시스템을 소개한다.

  • Previous U-Commerce researches have dealt with the business support systems for traditional commerce space such as real world shopping malls. This paper investigates U-Commerce business models in service space. The McDonald's Touch-Order case is analyzed from business model perspective and the Media-Embedded Place business model is introduced as a U-Commerce business model for value creation in service space. The media-embedded place business model attaches auto-identification tags to tables or billboards, triggers commercial transaction through the tags, and shares the revenues and the incentives among the place owners and commerce/content providers. This paper analyzes its scenario and applications and illustrates the profitability analysis using so-called 'tag evaluation model'.

  • We present the design and implementation of a unique sensing and actuation application -- the Illuminator: a sensor network-based intelligent light control system for entertainment and media production. Unlike most sensor network applications, which focus on sensing alone, a distinctive aspect of the Illuminator is that it closes the loop from light sensing to lighting control. We describe the Illuminator's design requirements, system architecture, algorithms, implementation and experimental results. The system uses the Illumimote, a multi-modal and high fidelity light sensor module well-suited for wireless sensor networks, to satisfy the high-performance light sensing requirements of entertainment and media production applications. The Illuminator system is a toolset to characterize the illumination profile of a deployed set of fixed position lights, generate desired lighting effects for moving targets (actors, scenic elements, etc.) based on user constraints expressed in a formal language, and to assist in the set up of lights to achieve the same illumination profile in multiple venues. After characterizing deployed lights, the Illuminator computes optimal light settings at run-time to achieve a user-specified actuation profile, using an optimization framework based on a genetic algorithm. Uniquely, it can use deployed sensors to incorporate changing ambient lighting conditions and moving targets into actuation. Experimental results demonstrate that the Illuminator handles various high-level user requirements and generates an optimal light actuation profile. These results suggest that the Illuminator system supports entertainment and media production applications.

  • Contents adaptation is a technology which converts one content to another content used in various devices. Specially, synchronization of inter-media which are included in a document is needed. There are various proposals and solutions for synchronization of inter-media. In the paper, I present "TATS : Temporal Aggregate Tree Strategy" model, which is used for specifying the temporal relationship among media in series of time. In the TATS model, aggregate tree, a sort of a binary tree, is generated from the execution time of those media. Using this aggregate tree, I implemented the inter-media synchronizations.

  • Today, many museums are changing their forms with ubiquitous environment. Unlike traditional museums providing only static text-based information attached to its corresponding artifacts to visitors, those ubiquitous museums provide not only artifacts' text information, but also many different forms of information such as sound or media through personal digital assistance or cell phones. However, these existing ubiquitous museums still provide each visitor only with artifact-centric information in very simple ways. Also this disadvantageous feature causes high gallery congestion problem resulting from providing a uniform path for every visitor. These limitations may be the biggest barrier to providing more various and useful information about artifacts to visitors through considering each visitor's preference. This paper propose a new optimal viewing path search algorithm to provide comfortable museum viewing for each visitor according to its preference. Also, a new congestion control method is developed to protect visitors from being put in some hot spots on their museum viewing, improving its comfort to a maximum.

  • Urbanization and industrialization have led to a severe deterioration in urban air qualities. As an air pollution is closely associated with human health, citizen has a growing concern about the air quality policy to improve their residential environment. Due to the recently advance in web- and mobile computing technologies, citizens can easily access various air quality information and public authorities utilize the social media service to communicate citizens with air quality issues. Also citizens' participation and role has been increased to improve urban air qualities. Thus, to meet the technical and societal changes, a GIS-based air quality information system is developed based upon the Ubiquitous Public Access (UPA) model in ISO19154. The proposed system employs the context information model to provide air quality information depending on citizens' health conditions and locations. Also, citizens can present their perceptions of an air quality at their current location Public authorities can thus utilize the citizens' perceptions when establishing new air quality policies.

  • Nowadays personal users create a variety of multi-media contents and share them with others through various devices over the Internet since the concept of user created content (UCC) has been widely accepted as a new paradigm in today's multi-media market, which has broken the boundary of contents providers and consumers. This paradigm shift has also introduced a new business model that makes it possible for them to create their own multi-media contents for commercial purpose. This paper proposes a tangible virtual studio using augmented reality to author multi-media contents easily and intuitively for personal broadcasting and personal content generation. It provides a set of tangible interfaces and devices such as visual markers, cameras, movable and rotatable arms carrying cameras, and miniaturized set. They can offer an easy-to-use interface in an immersive environment and an easy switching mechanism between tangible environment and virtual environment. This paper also discusses how to remove inconsistency between real objects and virtual objects during the AR-enabled visualization with a context-adaptable tracking method. The context-adaptable tracking method not only adjusts the locations of invisible markers by interpolating the locations of existing reference markers, but also removes a jumping effect of movable virtual objects when their references are changed from one marker to another.
