  • 본 논문에서 우리는 이동단말기를 이용하여 멀티미디어 콘텐츠를 서비스하는 디지털 TV상거래 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 시스템은 이동단말기와 TV를 결합하여 TV 시청자로 하여금 TV 시청 중에 노래나 비디오 영상과 같은 멀티미디어 콘텐츠를 구매하고 이동단말기로 직접 다운로드 할 수 있게 한다. 더 나은 서비스를 위해 TV와 이동단말기를 결합했다는 점이나 노래, 비디오 영상 그리고 게임과 같은 멀티미디어 콘텐츠를 직접 이동단말기로 다운로드 할 수 있다는 점이 기존의 TV 상거래와 다른 점이다. 게다가 우리의 시스템은 비용을 줄이기 위해 값싼 네트워크를 사용하도록 설계되었다. 우리는 이 새로운 시스템을 구현하였고 이 시스템이 제공하는 서비스를 기존의 TV 상거래와 비교하여 상세히 기술한다. 그리고 제안된 시스템의 구조를 살펴보고 모의 테스트를 수행한다.

  • This paper presents a mobile robot that travels employing visual information. The mobile robot is equipped solely with a TV camera as a sensor, and views from the TV camera are transferred to a separately installed micro computer through an image acquisition device. An acquired image of a view is processed there and the information necessary for travel is yielded. Instructions based on the information are then sent from the micro computer to the mobile robot, which causes the mobile robot next action. Among several application programs that have already been developed for the mobile robot other than the entire control program, this paper focuses its attention on the travelling control of the mobile robot in a model environment with obstructions as well as an overview of the whole system. The behaviour the present mobile robot takes when it travels among obstructions was investigated by an experiment, and satisfactory results were obtained.

  • The mobile instant messengers could change the lives of average citizens as much as did the telephone in the early part of the 20th century and television in the 1950s and 1960s. Researchers are debating whether the mobile instant messengers are improving or harming participation in community life and social relationships. For this study, 155 participants in two universities completed questionnaires pertaining to their own mobile instant messengers use and feelings of loneliness. We used survey data to examine the effects of the mobile instant messengers on social involvement and psychological well-being. In this sample, the mobile instant messengers were used extensively for communication. Results suggest that greater use of the mobile instant messengers were associated with declines in participants' communication with the people around which in turn increases their loneliness. These findings have implications for research and for the design of technology.

  • Augmented reality (AR) is a popular service in mobile devices, and many AR applications can be downloaded from app stores. As TV broadcasting has continued to integrate with the Internet, it has become an area in which the AR concept is able to reside, although in a simple form, such as an advertisement placed in the static region of a scene. There are some restrictions against TV broadcasting realizing AR since TVs are fixed devices and typically do not have GPS, geomagnetic, or acceleration sensors, which are standard equipment in mobile devices. However, the desire to experience AR on a large TV screen has triggered research and development for an ideal AR business model and service type. This paper introduces several use cases for augmented broadcasting services and also presents an augmented broadcasting metadata scheme designed for a broadcasting environment. We also verify some of the use cases and an augmented broadcasting metadata scheme in an implemented augmented broadcasting system based on a hybrid TV platform.

  • Fluttering ghost which is the most severs picture impairment in mobile TV reception under multipath fading environments can be detected by measuring the dynamic variation of the synchronizing pulse timing. And also, the occurrence-stucture of fluttering ghost are directly correlated with the multipath parameters. This paper describes the quantitative evaluating method of the mobile TV pictures impaired by multipath parameters by means of the spectral analysis of synchronizing timing fluctuation. The ghost-flutter curve derived from the spatial amplitue spectrum of synchronizing pulse timing fluctuation express well the spatial variation characteristic, and it has been found to be the quantitative evaluating measure of picture impairment in mobile reception. A correspondence between the ghost-flutter curve (and/or index) and picture quality opinion test results is established.

  • 최근 스마트폰, 태블릿 PC와 같은 모바일 스마트 디바이스(mobile smart devices)와 더불어 스마트 TV에 대한 관심이 크게 증가하면서 사용자들의 컨텐츠와 기능에 대한 요구 또한 다양해지고 있다. 스마트 TV가 컨텐츠와 기능적 측면에서 사용자의 편의와 재미, 그리고 유익함을 동시에 만족시키기 위해서는 더욱 지능화된 기능을 탑재할 필요가 있다. 일반적으로 남녀에 따라 TV를 시청하는 경향이 다르기 때문에 현재 TV를 시청하는 사용자의 성별분류(gender classification)를 통해 성별에 따른 따른 채널이나 광고, 응용 프로그램을 달리 제공하는 성별 기반의 스마트 TV 응용을 개발할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 TV 응용에 적합한 BGOLAM 기반의 성별분류 방법에 대해 제안하고, 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법의 적절성을 보인다.

  • Advances in mobile communication and digital video technology enable to commercialize converged multimedia services such as VoD in the mobile networks. Media convergence is evolving into U-Cloud and mobile IP-TV services constituted by high-speed mobile multimedia networks and integrated personal devices. This paper proposes a resource allocation scheme to guarantee QoS of converged mobile multimedia services, and simultaneously maximize legacy services in heterogeneous wireless networks. Performances are analyzed by the simulation.

  • Recent commencement of digital broadcasting has enabled various TV programs through hundreds of channels. As a result, it becomes a time-consuming job for the TV audience to look up newspaper or TV magazines for the schedule of a specific TV program. To relieve this problem, digital broadcasting usually provides an EPG(Electronic Program Guide) for the audience. Currently. most EPG services are focusing on the visual delivery of information through a web site, digital TV or mobile devices. However, this approach could cause a serious restriction to some users including drivers or visually handicapped persons, who can't input keywords for the search. In order to solve this problem, in this paper, we propose a VoiceXML-based EPG retrieval system that enables even such special users to browse EPG. conveniently using a mobile phone. We implemented a prototype system and proved its effectiveness through experiments.

  • Objective: This paper focuses on the new trend of applying NUI(natural user interface) such as gesture interaction into television and investigates on the design improvement needed in application. The intention is to find better design direction of NUI on television context, which will contribute to making new features and behavioral changes occurring in next-generation television more practically usable and meaningful use experience elements. Background: Traditional television is rapidly evolving into next-generation television thanks to the influence of "smartness" from mobile domain. A number of new features and behavioral changes occurred from such evolution are on their way to be characterized as the new experience elements of next-generation television. Method: A series of expert review by television UX professionals based on AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) was conducted to check on the "relative appropriateness" of applying gesture interaction to a number of selected television user experience scenarios. Conclusion: It is critical not to indiscriminately apply new interaction techniques like gesture into television. It may be effective in demonstrating new technology but generally results in poor user experience. It is imperative to conduct consistent validation of its practical appropriateness in real context. Application: The research will be helpful in applying gesture interaction in next-generation television to bring optimal user experience in.
