As intelligence of robot is developed, consumer of robot changes by ordinary people. Intelligent service robot is produced to a target of ordinary people. It is risen that need the most service robot business. Among the control mobile robot because using network by real time. Do to appear on mobile phone LCD screen being transmitted image from device that acquire transmit of mobile phone user interface development and real time mobile robot in this study. Use the BREW that is Qualcomm's Mobile platform for mobile phone user interface development. Mobile phone JPEG compression function chooses excellent camera phone and display transmit image which send connection setting screen and mobile robot on LCD screen by real time. At the same time, materialize to make screen that can process button input that can control transfer of robot. Also, Relay Server used to help processing of protocol to control direction of mobile robot.

In the last decade, the research of the usability of mobile phones has been a newly evolving area with few established methodologies and realistic practices that ensure capturing usability in evaluation. Thus, there exists growing demand to explore appropriate evaluation methodologies that evaluate the usability of mobile phones quickly as well as comprehensively. This study aims to develop a task-based usability checklist based on heuristic evaluations in views of mobile phone UI practitioners. A hierarchical structure of UI design elements and usability principles related to mobile phones were developed and then utilized to develop the checklist. In order to demonstrate the practical effectiveness of the proposed checklist, comparative experiments were conducted on the usability checklist and usability testing. Majority of usability problems found by usability testing and additional problems were discovered by the proposed checklist. It is expected that the usability checklist proposed in this study could be used quickly and efficiently by usability practitioners to evaluate the mobile phone UI in the middle of the mobile phone development process.

This study is about designing mobile phone display in consideration of elder people's preferences by reason of their optical weakness. The research is closely connected with designing user-friendly interface by considering user characteristics. The criteria for first experiment are font sizes, font types, line spacing and background colors. With the experiment result, relative importance of each attribute and subjective preference are investigated by conjoint analysis. Secondly, an optimal display design for elder people is presented by response surface method on the basis of the result of conjoint analysis, other statistical analyses, and user interviews.

With the recent advance in the performance of mobile phones, many effective interfaces for them have been proposed. This paper implements a hand-gesture-and-vision-based interface on a mobile phone. This paper assumes natural interaction scenario when user holds a mobile phone in a hand and sees the other hand's palm through mobile phone's camera. Then, a virtual object is rendered on his/her palm and reacts to hand and finger movements. Since the implemented interface is based on hand familiar to humans and does not require any additional sensors or markers, user freely interacts with the virtual object anytime and anywhere without any training. The implemented interface worked at 5 fps on mobile phone (Galaxy S2 having a dual-core processor).

In mobile device's user interface, menu organization is very important as well as menu structure because small display of mobile device. Menu items should be organized based on user knowledge structure to design user-centered interface. Traditionally, MDS (Multidimensional Scaling) have been most often used to expose users' perceived organization of menu items. But, information that MDS reveals is just relative spatial location of concepts and not relevant to concepts connection. Unlike MDS, Trajectory Mapping explicitly finds users' cognitive links between perceived concepts. This study proposes a Trajectory Mapping technique for eliciting knowledge structure, especially a set of cognitive pathways linking menu items, from end user. With twelve participants, MDS and Trajectory Mapping were conducted using cellular phone's menu items. And user knowledge structure was analyzed through Visual Concept Map that combination of results of MDS and Trajectory Mapping. After then, menu items were organized according to users' perceived organization. Empirical usability test was also conducted. The results of usability test showed that usability, in terms of task performance time, number of errors, and satisfaction, for newly organized interface was significantly improved compare to original interface. The methodology of this study is expected to be applicable to design a user-centered interface. In other words, Trajectory Mapping technique can be used as a design tool of user interface for imposing user knowledge structure on the interface.

As a result of the growth of mobile devices such as PDA and cellular phone, a user can utilize various digital contents everywhere and anytime. However, mobile devices have the limited resources and interaction mechanisms. This paper introduces the schema for a user activity estimation and its application in order to overcome the poor user interface and limited resource problems. We are able to supplement lacking the user interface of mobile devices by using the user activity estimation proposed in this paper, and its application is a intelligent control interface for the display power on or off which can effectively utility the battery of the mobile device.

In Accordance with the change of design paradigm, the design process has changed into user-centered workflow from designer-centered workflow. Since the purpose of the past research methods is quantitative analysis or the understanding of the present situation, it doesn't fit in practical design that expressed the user's needs. Therefore, the real data about what they see and how they feel will be useful for the user-centered design. This paper's objective is to analyze eye-movement recordings and pupil size of user for mobile interface design. For this objective, it was experimented on that the user's eyegaze data of using a mobile phone by the Eyegaze Interface System, and analyzed three levels of user's task performance. The results provided evaluation of new developed and old existing interface design of mobile phone by the experiment of eye-movement recordings and pupil size. The benefit of results is compliment of the limitation of current usability test through visual characteristics of design and qualitative data of user.
