In this study, the effect of augmented reality subtitle content on users was investigated by using a subjective evaluation method and a statistical approach. The human factor was defined as subtitle position and font size. Then, we analyzed the effects of the defined factors on human eye comfort and visibility. Ten participants conducted related survey evaluation tasks with a 1-minute break after viewing the content for 3 minutes.

The system performance of Engineered Safety Features is of utmost importance in a nuclear power plant. The human performance is identified as most critical to assurance of the optimal operability of safety systems during an emergency. The aim of this study is to determine how the performance of safety system could be evaluated using Augmented Reality technology. The paper presents a description of how a systems engineered approach could be used to develop the necessary operating conditions needed to conduct this measurement. Augmented Virtual Reality (AVR) interface technology is achieving ease of availability and widespread use in many applications today as illustrated by the launch of several AR and VR devices aimed at media consumption. As such, environments that incorporate such AVR hardware have become invaluable tools in designing human interface systems because of the high fidelity and intuitive response to natural human interaction that can be achieved [2]. The outcome of the measurement undertaken is to determine whether 1.) Operator(s) performance can be enhanced by introducing an improved cognitive method of monitoring plant information during an Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP) and 2.) In correlation, inform the performance of the diverse safety systems on the basis of human factors.

A vector space based augmented structural kinematic (VSASK) feature descriptor is proposed for human activity recognition. An action descriptor is built by integrating the structural and kinematic properties of the actor using vector space based augmented matrix representation. Using the local or global information separately may not provide sufficient action characteristics. The proposed action descriptor combines both the local (pose) and global (position and velocity) features using augmented matrix schema and thereby increases the robustness of the descriptor. A multiclass support vector machine (SVM) is used to learn each action descriptor for the corresponding activity classification and understanding. The performance of the proposed descriptor is experimentally analyzed using the Weizmann and KTH datasets. The average recognition rate for the Weizmann and KTH datasets is 100% and 99.89%, respectively. The computational time for the proposed descriptor learning is 0.003 seconds, which is an improvement of approximately 1.4% over the existing methods.

Outdoor sports activities have been restricted by serious air pollution, such as fine dust and yellow dust, and abnormal meteorological change, such as heatwave and heavy snow. These environmental problems have rapidly increased the demand for indoor sports activities. Virtual sports, such as virtual golf, virtual baseball, virtual soccer, etc., allow playing various sports games without going outdoors. Indoor sports industries and markets have seen rapid growth since the advent of virtual sports. Most virtual sports platforms use screen-based virtual reality techniques, which are why they are called screen sports. However, these platforms cannot support various sports games, especially virtual match games, such as squash, boxing, and so on, because existing screen-based virtual reality sports techniques use real balls and players. This article presents screen-based haptic-augmented reality technologies for a new virtual sports platform. The new platform does not use real balls and players to solve the limitations of previous platforms. Here, various technologies, including human motion tracking, human action recognition, haptic feedback, screen-based augmented-reality systems, and augmented-reality sports content, are unified for the new virtual sports platform. From these haptic-augmented reality technologies, the proposed platform supports sports games, including indoor virtual matches, that existing virtual sports platforms cannot support.

본 논문은 증강현실 기술을 사용한 21C 영화들의 영화적 상상과 증강현실 예술의 예술적 상상을 중심으로 증강현실 콘텐츠 산업화의 미래에 관하여 연구하였다. 영화에서는 영화적 상상을 통해 미래의 기술을 보여주는 동시에 미래상을 제시하는 역할을 하고, 증강현실 예술은 기술적으로 구현할 수 있는 현재의 기술을 통해 미래 예술과 사회의 거시적인 문화를 포착하는 역할을 하고 있다. 조사된 영화들을 증강현실 기술별로 분류한 결과, 제스처 인식은 투명 디스플레이어 관련 기술과 연계하여 발전하고, 홀로그램 기술은 개별화된 커뮤니케이션 방식으로 변화되며, 생체인식은 다중 생체인식으로의 발전 가능성이 있고, 웨어러블 컴퓨터는 물리적인 신체증강 측면으로도 발전하여 산업화될 것으로 전망된다. 증강현실 예술에서 아바타의 다양한 활용은 홀로그램과 관련이 있고, 인체의 생체 현상의 활용은 생체인식으로 연계되며, 현실세계와 가상세계의 혼합은 제스처 인식을 통해 디스플레이어를 활용하고, HMD의 새로운 시도는 웨어러블 컴퓨터의 다변화와 함께 산업화될 것으로 보인다. 영화와 예술에서 상상과 구현을 통해 나타난 증강현실 콘텐츠는 인간 생활의 조력자 역할을 담당하고, 동시에 인간과 환경 간에 매개 없이 융화되는 방식으로 산업화되는 미래상을 제시한다.

The flow of technology is going to human-oriented direction, from the time when the computer was first invented, to now where new computing environment using mobile and global network are everywhere. On that technology flow, ubiquitous is being suggested as new paradigm of computing environment. Augmented Reality is one of ubiquitous technologies that provide the interactions between human and computer. By adding computer-generated information to real information and their interaction, user can get the improved and more knowledgeable information about real world. The purpose of this paper is to show the possibility of applying vision based augmented reality to maintenance of product system.

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) evoke pacemaker activities in many tissues. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between interstitial cell and pacemaker activity in the human ureter through the recording of spontaneous contractions. Spontaneous contractions of eight circular and longitudinal smooth muscle strips of the human ureter to acetylcholine (ACh) and/or norepinephrine (NE) were observed. Human ureteral strips were divided into proximal and distal groups, and each group was subdivided into circular and longitudinal groups. The proximal group showed spontaneous activities of 3~4 times within 5 minutes in the longitudinal group. ACh ($10^{-4}\;M$) augmented the frequency of the spontaneous contractions. The cumulative application of NE also augmented the frequency in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of NE application were inhibited by concomitant application of $10^{-5}\;M$ glibenclamide. Receptor tyrosine kinase (c-kit) staining revealed abundant ICCs only in proximal tissues. Therefore, spontaneous contractions of the human ureter might be modulated by ICC in the proximal region, and the actions might be related with the activation of cholinergic and/or adrenergic system mediated by a glibenclamide-sensitive pathway.

최근 HCI(Human Computer Interaction)의 한 분야인 증강현실은 크게 마커 기반과 비 마커기반으로 구분된다. 비 마커기반은 실세계 환경에서 자연적인 특징을 이용하여 객체를 증강한다. 반면, 마커기반은 사각형의 평면 마커를 이용하여 좌표를 쉽게 계산하고 객체를 정확하게 증강 시킨다. 그러나 마커기반은 제공되는 영상 안에 마커가 존재하기 때문에 비 마커기반 보다 사용자에게 주는 현실감 및 몰입감이 적다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 마커기반의 현실감 및 몰입감을 증대시키기 위해 감쇄 현실과 증강현실을 결합한 객체 제거 기법을 활용한 마커기반 증강현실 시스템 구조를 연구한다.

Augmented reality is a novel human-machine interaction that overlays virtual computer-generated information on a real world environment. It has found good potential applications in many fields, such as training, surgery, entertainment, maintenance, assembly, product design and other manufacturing operations. In this study, a smartphone-based augmented reality system was developed for the purpose of monitoring and managing injection molding production lines. Required management items were drawn from a management content analysis, and then the items were divided into two broad management categories: line management and equipment management. Effective work management was enabled by providing those working on the shop floor with management content information combined with the actual images of an injection molding production line through augmented reality.
