In this paper, we develop a vibration system which can generate diverse vibration effects in realtime by analyzing signals from the sound output of PC. This system is able to detect the occurrences of particular sounds in order to generate corresponding pre-programmed vibration patterns. It contributes to the improvement of the reality and the immersiveness of games and virtual reality applications. In addition, its advantage is to easily add vibration features to applications which were originally developed without consideration for vibration. Our system consists of an external DSP board for signal processing and a vibration pad which can be put on wrists. It is superior to other sound-driven vibration devices because its DSP board can detect more diverse sounds, has higher performance and does not interfere with PC. Also the wrist-wearable vibration pad is able to generate more realistic vibration than other mouse or joystick type devices.

In this paper, we propose layout based multimodal contents authoring tool for Digilog Book. In authoring step, users create a virtual area using mouse or pen-type device and select property of the area repetitively. After finishing authoring step, system recognizes printed page number and generate page layout including areas and property information. Page layout is represented as a scene graph and stored as XML format. Digilog Book viewer loads stored page layout and analyze properties then augment virtual contents or execute functions based on area. Users can author visual and auditory contents easily by using hybrid interface. In AR environment, system provides area templates in order to help creating area. In addition, proposed authoring tool separates page recognition module from page tracking module. So, it is possible to author many pages using only single marker. As a result of experiment, we showed proposed authoring tool has reasonable performance time in AR environment. We expect that proposed authoring tool would be applicable to many fields such as education and publication.

Light Drawing is a photographic technique which exposures are made at night or in a darkened room usually by moving a hand-held light source[1]. Due to the limitations of equipment and environment, users having difficulty in drawing a picture in 3D space. If user take a light drawing, they need a camera that have function and darkened environment. Alternative solution is that we can make a light drawing picture by using the computer drawing tool as in Photoshop. Nevertheless, this solution will let the User lose their interest in drawing because this solution cannot synchronize between the real action of human hand motion and the electronic input devices such as mouse and keyboard. This paper proposed a digital content that can make light drawing easier. We used a digital content that will facility Light Drawing easier. We can measure the light spot position by using the stereo camera. Based on the measured position of the light spot, we reproduce light drawing in virtual space by using drawing effect method.

We are able to work on the shared virtual space in Web-based Collaborative Design System using only Internet and Web browser. The users connect to the Solid Modeler Server through m and they create 3D shape and manipulate them variously. Then the users will share 3D objects and two problems can arise. The users must be able to pick the objects effectively which they want to manipulate. When one of the users manipulates a particular object, others should not disturb with the same object. In this paper, picking is implemented not only by computing intersection of mouse pointer with the objects of the virtual world, but also by using capabilities and attributes of scene graph node, by setting bounds intersection testing instead of geometric intersection testing, by limiting the scope of the pick testing, using Java 3D. These methods can reduce the computation of picking and can pick 3D objects effectively and easily using the system of hierarchy. To have effective concurrency, we used shared lock and exclusive lock as the action in work space.
