Front-projection type displays make it difficult to apply traditional skin color detection for human hand because the projected beam not only reaches to the screen but also to the user's hand. This paper solves this problem by modeling the distortion between original image and its final camera input. Our approach improves hand detection rate by modeling of interference effect among color channels and of intra-frame intensity and also by introducing adaptive threshold for color difference in skin region.

The computer hardware development has provided many chances of emergence between art and technology. In many cases today's interactive artworks cannot be completed without audience's participation. The interactive production process with technical supplementation can be celled feedback. Mr. Nam Jun Paik showed 'Participant TV' that interacts with audience's response in real time. It means artwork changes with the constantly changing value from the data set from human visual perception. Dan Graham showed another feedback related work, which delays 5second playback in mirror that implies consequence of time. Today's media art has to sublimate coincidence, time ant audience into philosophical artwork through consonance that comes with video and sound as we can see from Bill Viola. Stelarc produced artworks. That use input data that is weak signals from brain, muscles. Through a terminal display with player, body expanded meaning of media. Jeffrey Shaw's 'Legible City' provided a fabrication of the reality with the interaction of bicycle's pedal speed and steering direction that is controlled by 4river. RE:MARK used microphone as input device as Edmond Couchot's 'Je same a la vent' and Nam Jun Paik's 'Participant TV' did. There is no communication without feedback between human being. The reality makes audience involved into artworks. That is the reason why feedback has to be natural. Through the feedback process, the originality of the idea is altered by audience. The feedback is not just part of flesh of artwork rather skeleton of it. Technological showoff cannot be art itself The perfection of technological application plan helps feedback that interacts with audience naturally in order that audience hoes not feel the feedback as artificial plan. Interactive media art has to be evolved into new media form with new integration feedback technology.

This study is a qualitative study using phenomenological methods that focus on the meaning of what individuals experience to understand the meaning of the gender role of women after childbirth. The participants of this study are 17 women who gave a birth from 8 weeks of the postpartum period to a year after the birth. Seven categories were derived from the results of analyzing the meaning of the gender roles of participants, and the seven categories are confirmed to be body changes and pain, just making me feel down, the difference between expectation and reality, isolation from husband and social network, thinking about my mother as a woman, the pain of body and mind sublimates, and convergence/dissociation between femininity and motherhood. This study is meaningful in that the results of this study provided information that would have a broader understanding of women's gender role after giving birth.

The study is a qualitative study to understand the stress experience of pregnant women by exploring the vivid experiences of pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic through a phenomenological approach. As for the study subjects, 12 pregnant women who were pregnant during the COVID-19 pandemic were selected as subjects and in-depth interviews were conducted. Interviews with participants were conducted from June to October 2022, and data were analyzed through the Taguette program using the Colaizzi (1978) analysis method. As a result of the analysis, the category of experience was derived as 4 themes and 12 sub-topics. The main themes appeared as confusion due to inaccurate information, collapsed prenatal care, stress due to a controlled life, and body and mind adapting. It was confirmed that social support for the health of pregnant women and the establishment of a stable medical system need to be done overall. Further studies are needed to support this.

Norman Mailer is one of the American writers who dramatize sensual pleasure in order to show how American idealism ends up being trapped and corrupted. The most remarkable cases are the tragic heroes of Scott Fitzgerald and the tough characters of Ernest Hemingway; while the former describes the victim of sensual pleasure, the latter brings the sensuality out from the darkness into 'the clean and well-lighted place.' In one of his most successful experimental fiction writings called 'New Journalism,' Mailer portrays the battle between the liberal left and the conservative right in the demonstration of 1967. Mailer achieves two things in this new technique. First, he demystifies the traditional epistemology grounded in the neutral and transparent narration and suggests that every narration can not escape mediation by a narrator. Secondly, he demonstrates that there is no clear distinction between good and bad. Rather, Good is nothing but a disguised form of Evil, and God is feasible only through the courageous action borrowed from Evil. In this technological world, devil is more powerful and attractive than God. This paper assumes the materiality of courage and focuses on the phenomenology of war carried out not from soul but from body, not from the consciousness but from the materiality.

현행 돼지도체 등급제는 육량과 육질을 종합하여 최종적으로 5개 등급으로 판정하고 있다. 이러한 등급판정체계 하에서는 육량이 우수한 도체라 할지라도 육질이 좋지 않을 경우 상위등급(A$\cdot$B등급)으로 판정 받는 것은 어렵고, 마찬가지로 육질이 우수한 도체라 할지라도 육량이 낮을 경우 상위등급으로 판정 받을 수 없다. 그러므로 상위등급은 육질과 육량이 모두 일정수준이상인 도체로 이해하는 것이 바람직하다. 이는 돼지도체의 등급판정 기준이 체중 및 등지방두께와도 밀접한 상관관계를 가지고 있기 때문이다. 일반적으로 돼지의 성장(체중의 증가)이라 함은 일정기간 동안 몸의 질량이 증가하는 현상으로 품종에 따라 고유한 성장률과 성장기 체중이 있고, 단계별로 생체의 각 조직이나 부위가 균형되게 발육하는 것을 말한다. 대개 체조직의 발육순서는 뇌, 골격, 근육, 지방의 순이며, 각 부위의 발육은 머리, 배, 허리의 순으로 이루어진다고 알려져 있다. 따라서 이번 연구조사에서는 돼지 탕박도체의 중량(성장) 증가에 따른 등지방두께와 등심단면적의 변화, 부위별 중량 및 수율의 변화 등을 알아보고, 또 부위별 수율이 등급판정결과와 성별에 따라 어떠한 영향을 받는지에 대해 알아보고자 실시하였다.

충북 단양은 우리나라에서 대표적인 산수(山水)의 고장으로 꼽힌다. 남한강과 소백산이 만들어낸 단양팔경은 국내에서도 내로라하는 관광명소다. 그야말로 도시생활에서 지친 몸과 미음을 치유할 수 있는 최적의 장소인 것이다. 하지만 그동안 단양을 찾는 이들에게는 조금의 불편함이 있었던 것도 사실이다. 단양IC에서 단양역까지 이르는 도로는 남한강(충주호)을 끼고 있어 최고의 절경을 볼 수 있는 드라이브 코스로 유명하지만 왕복 2차선에 불과해 주말, 휴가철에는 병목현상이 빈번했기 때문이다. 또 그만큼 교통안전 여건도 좋지 않았다. 이런 문제점들은 2016년 4월이면 완벽히 해소될 전망이다. 쌍용건설이 이 구간을 4차선으로 확장하는 건설공사를 한창 진행하고 있기 때문이다. 쌍용건설은 이룰 통해 도로이용자들의 교통안전을 확보하고, 지역 균형발전에 이바지한다는 계획이다. 때문에 이곳 현장에서는 무엇보다 안전을 최우선 가치에 두고 있다. 이곳의 안전관리가 어떻게 전개되고 있는지 찾아가 봤다.

엘리베이터는 각종 최첨단 장치로 작동되지만, 승객의 호출에만 수동적으로 작동한다. 이러한 현상은 간발의 차이로 엘리베이터를 놓치는 경우를 종종 만든다. 또한 엘리베이터를 조작하기 힘든 상태(무거운 짐을 들고 있거나, 몸이 불편한 경우, 승객이 붐비는 경우 등)에는 이런 수동성은 큰 불편함으로 다가온다. 이에 본 연구팀은 엘리베이터에 IoT를 접목하여 스스로 승객의 목적 층을 인식하여 자동으로 움직일 수 있도록 도와주는 방안을 연구하였다. 이를 위해 엘리베이터 승객의 출입을 인식하는 장치를 설계하고, 이를 바탕으로, 비콘을 이용해 범위 안에 승객이 접근 시 자동적으로 엘리베이터를 호출하는 연구를 진행하였다. 또한 출입 기록을 통해 승객이 호출 버튼을 누르기도 전에 엘리베이터가 먼저 인식하여 대기하고 목적 층을 스스로 찾아가는 시스템의 기반을 마련할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study is to capture how marriage migrant women, who are burdened with the luggage of the social, cultural, and historical 'past,' reconstruct their own 'experiences in reality' as subjective agents after their immigration into a new space. By applying a phenomenological method, this study analyzes the world of life in which marriage migrant women come to have experiences in the dimensions of bodilihood, spatiality, temporality, and relatedness. As a result of the analysis, marriage migrant women never think of their bodiliness as the subject of discrimination though they have some differences in skin colors and cultural aspects, and make efforts to overcome prejudices in reality withtheir pride of body. As for the spatiality, marriage migrant women attempts at a spatial turn in which they reconstruct a novel sociocultural space. With respect to the temporality, marriage migrant women recognize themselves not as passive subjects who only resent reality but as being prepared for future actively. As for the relatedness, marriage migrant women show life in which they pioneer their own areas on the basis of extended personal relations.
