Smartphones have been widely used for various purposes and stay connected with people at all times. However, the use of such touchscreen devices can be physically restricted depending on users' context where only one hand is available to interact with the device. Even major smartphone manufacturers (e.g., Apple, Samsung) offer one handed mode, they still lack functions in the third-party applications, and the process is also complicated. We propose OverIT, a system that enables users to customize interfaces by adding new buttons on an interactive overlay which can be positioned anywhere on the touchscreen where each button serves the same functionality as an existing one. It is designed to support users to map a certain button event freely and easily to a newly created button by performing a demonstration of a button tap. We expect our system to improve the overall user experience of one-handed interaction with touchscreen devices.

보행 보조 로봇의 효과적인 보조를 위해서는 사용자의 보행 유형을 인식하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 end-to-end 분류 네트워크 기반 보행 환경 인식 방법을 사용하여 사용자의 보행 유형을 강인하게 추정한다. 실외 보행 환경을 오르막길, 평지, 내리막길 3 가지로 분류하는 딥러닝 모델을 학습시켰으며, 엣지 디바이스에서 이를 사용하기 위해 네트워크 경량화를 진행하였다. 경량화 후 추론 속도는 약 47FPS 수준으로 실시간으로 보행 보조 로봇에 적용 가능한 것을 검증했으며, 정확도 측면에서도 97% 이상의 성능을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper proposes a method for extending simulating fluid on mobile device, which was only possible on desktop PC. Fluid simulation is done by solving Navier-Stokes equation numerically, and previous research were mainly focused on numerical stability [1], and realism [2]. However, such methods assume rich computational resources, which is not available on mobile devices. On the other hand, rigid-body solver is the mostly used physically-based technique [3], and only simple height field-based method is released for fluid simulation [4]. To overcome these problems, we proposes a modified incompressible fluid dynamics solver for the mobile device, and also we propose a technique for visualizing fluids on the mobile device.

In this paper, we show a real-time lightning simulation for smart device game. Our proposed method uses physically based Dielectric Breakdown Model to similar real world lightning path and we simplify the algorithm for real-time simulation in smart device. In addition, the rendering process can render multiple lightning and can real-time render in smart device. Finally, our lightning can support interactive with user. The simulation method will be effectively useful for a game that needs a real-time simulation as its game element in smart device environment.

Objective: This study aims towards exploring a model of the HCI evaluation methods to improve the usability of mobile device, based on a case of a Mobile PDA system in a Museum context. Background: Mobile PDA systems in a Museum context is widely utilized for the educational purposes, but it is criticized for low usability that the device only play a role in textbooks on legs without any interactive educational activities. Therefore, the usability improvements on the mobile PDA system should be considered. Method 1: This model was developed with a combination of the expert review and the user testing, and with a combination of the qualitative and quantitative studies. In more details, first of all, a qualitative study was conducted as a combination of three different methods: 1) expert review with heuristics, 2) interviews with persons working in a museum, and 3) contextual enquiry. Results 1: The experts review provided with critical usability issues, and the semi-constructive interview helped to understand the background of the mobile device. Lastly, the contextual enquiry showed user experience problems and directions of improving the device from user's perspective. Method 2: Based on the results of the qualitative study, a questionnaire was designed. Results 2: The analysis of the quantitative study was conducted to generalize the problems, and prioritize the direction of improving the device within the limitation of the cost and time in a museum. Conclusion: This study has implications in developing an example of a HCI evaluation model to improve the user experience of the mobile device as well as finding problems and directions of how to improve the mobile PDA systems in the museum. Application: In fact, most of the studies related to the evaluation of the mobile device have been conducted in a laboratory context due to the cost and time. This paper, however, attempted to apply to various HCI research techniques from different constituents in real context.

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device's interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body located within 3 meters. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. It is necessary to develop the WBAN core technology that sensor node device, WBAN middleware and WBAN application service for WBAN environment. In this paper we designed the medical message structure and implemented medical application for purpose of vital information reliability. The message structure was proposed for WBAN environment and application can be check biometric information from BN on smart device through WBAN gateway.

재래의 TV의 경우 채널변경, 볼륨조절 등의 비교적 간단한 조작만이 필요했던 반면 앞으로 보편화될 인터랙티브 TV는 부가기능의 다양화로 좀더 복잡한 인터렉션을 요구한다. 인터렉티브 TV조작에 사용되는 기술은 트랙볼이나 조이스틱 같은 포인팅 디바이스를 리모콘에 부착하는 방법, 키보드를 이용한 입력, 팜탑 컴퓨터, 음성입력 등 다양한 방법이 있다. 본 논문에서는 초음파센서를 이용한 새로운 입력장치인 소나팬(SonarPen)에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

정보화 산업의 급속한 발전을 통하여 무수히 많은 양의 정보들이 디지털화되어 왔고, 이러한 정보를 인식하기 위해서 인간은 멀티미디어나 컴퓨터를 통해 디지털화된 환경에 접속하게 되는데, 이는 시각과 청각을 통해 디지털화된 정보를 인간에게 전달하여 준다 이러한 시각과 청각을 이용한 정보 입출력 장치를 장시간 사용할 경우 정신적으로나 육체적으로 피곤함［l］과 지루함을 느끼게 되고, 장시간 사용이후에도 외부환경에 대한 반응이 일순간 둔감해질 수도 있다.(중략)

Schedule management of construction work is critical to completing construction projects within a given period of time. Many efforts have been made and multiple tools have been developed to support the management of construction projects using smart devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs. This study proposed a method for managing construction schedules via a smart device using Flash. The interactive and graphic properties of Flash enable the development of an app that can allow a field manager to manage schedules easily and efficiently. A prototype was implemented using Adobe Flex Builder, and a sample network was applied in a smartphone. It is convenient for a construction manager to manage construction schedules using the tool because Flash controls graphic components easily. In further studies, network diagrams such as CPM (Critical Path Method) should be developed and applied to the app.
