Abstract

We propose an annotation system, which allows users moving on an environment to receive personalized messages that are generated by exploiting contextual information. In the system, the context is defined as an entity including user's identity, location and time. Identity of user is a key data to enable personal aspect of generated message. For sensing the context, the proposed system uses AR(augmented reality) technology. Markers are attached to real objects for tracking user's location. AR can provide an effective annotating method to enhance human's perception and interaction abilities. The received message can be a virtual post-it or three-dimensional virtual model of object overlaid onto the real-world view. Experimental results show that the proposed system works well in real-time with high performance and it can be used as a mobile service for personalized messaging.

본 연구에서는 특정개인에 맞춘 정황정보를 제공할 수 있는 개인화 메세지 주석시스템을 제안한다. 본 시스템에서 컨텍스트는 사용자의 신 분, 위치, 시간등을 포함하는 실체로 정의하며 사용자의 정체는 개인화된 메세지 생성의 주된 데이터이다. 컨텍스트를 감지하기 위해 증강현실 기술이 사용되며, 사용자의 위치를 추적하기 위해 실제 물체에 마커가 부착된다. 증강현실 기술은 인간의 지각과 상호작용을 강화시키는 아주 효과적인 주석 방법으로 사용될 수있다. 메시지는 가상 문자메세지 또는 3차원 가상물체일 수 있다. 실험결과는 제안된 시스템이 실시간으로 효과적으로 작동됨을 보여주며 또한 개인화 메시지를 제공하는 모바일 서비스로 사용될 수 있음을 보였다.
