This study tested the roles of public self-consciousness, body surveillance, body shame, and body dissatisfaction based on culture cultivation theory and self-objectification theory with the aim of revealing the psychological mechanisms underlying the influence of media exposure on diet intention. As a result of conducting a survey on 350 women in their twenties and performing structural equation modeling, this study found that media exposure causes public self-consciousness, which increases body surveillance and body shame, thereby increasing body dissatisfaction and thus increasing diet intention. In addition, public self-consciousness indirectly influenced body shame through body surveillance. Body surveillance was found to have an indirect effect on diet intention through body dissatisfaction, whereas body shame had a direct effect on diet intention. Based on the results, we presented theoretical and practical implications of this study and suggestions for future research.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of exposure to body image in media and bullet screen on weight loss intention by specifically focusing on Bilibili, a video sharing website of China. For the study, a 3 (Social viewing: no bullet screen vs. complimentary bullet screen vs. critical bullet screen) x 2 (Body image in media: ideal vs. realistic) between-subjects factorial design was conducted. A total of 310 Chinese women in their 20s were recruited to participate in an experimental survey. The main results showed that viewing the ideal body image with the complimentary bullet screen and realistic body image with the critical bullet screen strengthened the participants' intention on weight loss. Finally, the interaction effect of social viewing and the types of bullet screen were examined. The higher weight-loss intention was revealed when social viewing was conducted with the complimentary bullet screen of the ideal image. The results of this study can enhance the understanding of the bullet screen as a type of social viewing and its effect on user behavior intention.

We have long kept our Cartesian tradition in which Mind privileges over Body; the invention of printing technology has accelerated the tradition in which the intelligence and legibility of media were considered as a higher human value. However, the development of media and technology are supporting the multisensory mechanisms of the body as it was in preliterate era when we communicated with our whole bodily experiences. The development and spread of mass-media and new technologies have broaden the boundary of human sensory that are largely dominated by visual information and expanded it to auditory, olfactory and even gustatory sensation. Since 1960's, some philosophers and artists have recognized the human body as a subjective matter, starting the movement in which the body plays a role as an essential factor in study of human perception and cognition, aesthetics in art, and sociology, and the changed perspectives are practiced vigorously in the field of new media art; the theory of Maurice Merleau-Ponty who clarified the body as a general means for the body's possession of world, so that recognize the importance of cognition of one's body and approved the embodiment could be applied and practiced here. Therefore, we discuss how Merleau-Ponty's philosophical theory can be practiced and how McLuhan's perspective could be applied on the notion of body's extension in media by analysing some new media art cases.

본 논문은 최신 가상현실 미디어 기술동향과 다양한 분야에서 시도해 온 VR 멀미저감 방안을 리뷰하여, 가상현실 사용자의 인지적 수용성을 높이는 방안에 대해 논의하였다. 이를 통해 최신 미디어 기술의 사용자 가치제안 방식을 분석하고 Social VR 플랫폼의 인지적 수용성을 개선하는 효율적 방안을 제안하였다. 생체신호 모니터링, VR 콘텐츠 적합도 분석, 멀미 메커니즘 조절, 신체동요측정 기반 멀미예측 등 다양한 멀미저감 방식 중 개발 비용과 사용자 수용성 측면에서 가장 효율적인 신체동요측정 기반 멀미예측 기술의 사전테스트 결과를 소개하고 적용 방안을 구체화하였다. 가상현실 체험 전 미세한 신체동요가 많은 사용자일수록 VR 멀미 민감도가 크게 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 개인의 멀미민감도를 반영하는 본 측정 결과를 다양한 가상현실 환경에서 테스트하고 개인특성에 따른 VR 멀미 데이터베이스를 구축한다면 AI 기반의 멀미 예측기술을 구현하는데 크게 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

최근 개인 신분확인 기술로 개인의 신체적 특징을 이용한 생채인식시스템이 주목을 받고 있다. 그러나 생체인식시스템에 저장된 생체 정보가 개인의 고유한 신체정보라는 점에서 정보가 유출되거나 의도적인 데이터의 변경으로 침해 발생 시 막대한 피해가 우려된다. 이러한 문제들을 기본으로 해결하기 위해서는 생체인식 정보가 저장된 데이터베이스를 보호해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 생체인식시스템 중 지문인식 시스템을 사용하여 지문 데이터베이스내의 데이터에 대한 위조 및 변조를 체크하여 신뢰성 있는 데이터를 관리할 수 있는 지문데이터베이스 보안관리에 관한 내용을 설계하고자 한다.

This paper designs a serious game for rehabilitation of patients with body pains because they sit down for a long time in the same position, or less physical movement. Activity-based game induces to player improvements in physical exercise with fun elements of the game through entertainment to help the body function and substantially increases the player's commitment during challenging goal. This research is a game design that combines the treatment of color and movement of body to the rhythm of the music. We constructed with XNA Game Studio and KINECT interface with gesture recognition technology. We need to research of evaluation system and test for the actual effect of the treatment and advanced functions of game playes like adding various musics and variety of motion.

In the recent past, the impression expressed by a human body expanded from that of aesthetic beauty to deformed organic medium influenced by environment. And the advancement in digital technology had made it possible to represent the deformed and distorted images of human body more realistically. Consequentially, these exaggerated physical images leave audiences with a feeling of grotesqueness. Chris Cunningham is a British director who mainly focuses on grotesque body as his subject matter using digital media. This paper will explore Chris Cunningham's work and his final goal through analyzing his carnivorous, uncanny grotesque body images, making use of the figital media, at each of his different levels.

In this study, in order to analyze physical changes that occur in real space in a survival game set in space and effectively apply this to the game, we investigated changes in the body exposed to a weightless environment based on literature on physical changes that occur in space. In addition, survival elements were derived by analyzing the system of survival games registered on the global platform STEAM. Based on the results obtained, a survival system was constructed so that it could be practically applied to a survival game set in space, and a method was designed to apply survival elements related to actual physical changes. Therefore, this study is expected to be used as a way to apply scientific facts as a survival factor for player characters when producing survival games set in space.

With the development of information technology, online commercial transactions have been steadily increasing. However it is not easy to recommend the clothes in coordination with individual physical features. This paper presents a fashion coordination recommender system for women's clothes. The system includes the functionality of recommending clothes best-suited for customers in consideration of their individual physical features. It has also been designed to recommend clothes in vogue for those who are fashion-sensitive by considering the fashion trend of the times. Operated in an optional or coupling way, these functionalities of our system result in an intelligent fashion coordination system which recommends dress items to customers in various ways.
