The growth of the mobile device market has changed the education market and led to the quantitative growth of various media education. In particular, smart devices, which have better interaction than existing PCs or consoles, can develop more user-friendly content, allowing various types of educational content and inducing changes in traditional education methods for consumers. Although many researchers recently suggest viable development methods or marketing elements of contents, development companies, and developers, until now, merely rely on the human senses. Therefore, it is necessary to study the actual user's smart-device based usability and experience environment. This study aims to propose an intuitive statistical processing method for analyzing the usability of game-type educational contents in terms of form, for popular games that have been released as a basis for analyzing the user experience environment. In particular, because the game industry has a sufficient number of similar examples, it is possible to conduct research based on big data and to use them for immediate decision-making between multiple co-developers through the analysis method proposed by the research. It is expected to become an analytical model that can communicate with other industries because it is effective in securing data sources.

Individuals with visual impairments face difficulties in accessing accurate information about medical services and medications, making it challenging for them to ensure proper medication intake. While there are healthcare laws addressing this issue, there is a lack of standardized solutions, and not all over-the-counter medications are covered. Therefore, we have undertaken the design of a mobile application that utilizes image recognition technology, barcode scanning, and QR code recognition to provide guidance on how to take over-the-counter medications, filling the existing gaps in the knowledge of visually impaired individuals. Currently available applications for individuals with visual impairments allow them to access information about medications. However, they still require the user to remember which specific medication they are taking, posing a significant challenge. In this research, we are optimizing the camera capture environment, user interface (UI), and user experience (UX) screens for image recognition, ensuring greater accessibility and convenience for visually impaired individuals. By implementing the findings from our research into the application, we aim to assist visually impaired individuals in acquiring the correct methods for taking over-the-counter medications.

As many functionalities such as cameras and MP3 players are converged to mobile phones, more intuitive and interesting interaction methods are essential. In this paper, we present applications and their enabling technologies for gesture interactive cell phones. They employ gesture recognition and real-time shake detection algorithm for supporting motion-based user interface and entertainment applications respectively. The gesture recognition algorithm classifies users' movement into one of predefined gestures by modeling basic components of acceleration signals and their relationships. The recognition performance is further enhanced by discriminating frequently confusing classes with support vector machines. The shake detection algorithm detects in real time the exact motion moment when the phone is shaken significantly by utilizing variance and mean of acceleration signals. The gesture interaction algorithms show reliable performance for commercialization; with 100 novice users, the average recognition rate was 96.9% on 11 gestures (digits 1-9, O, X) and users' movements were detected in real time. We have applied the motion understanding technologies to Samsung cell phones in Korean, American, Chinese and European markets since May 2005.

The unconscious and non-intrusive measurements of activity signals or physiological signals represent important enabling technologies for realizing a ubiquitous healthcare environment as well as a related UI. Particularly, non-intrusive measurements should be used in activity monitoring system for long-term monitoring. This paper is based on activity estimation by measuring the activity signals of a user using a handhold device with an accelerometer. The user activity estimation system (UAES) presented in this paper makes non-intrusive measurements of activity signals to minimize inconveniencing a user and to create a more practical implementation in real life. Thus, a variety of positions in which the handhold device can be carried by a user for daily use is considered, such as in the front/hip/shirt pockets, a backpack, on the waist, and in the hand.

This paper proposes a distributed space-frequency block code (SFBC) for relay-assisted single carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). The proposed technique achieves spatial diversity gain over fast fading channels without the complexity of multiple antennas. The mobile equipment of the proposed system has a very simple transmitter structure with constant amplitude transmit sequences, which is desirable especially for uplink communications. In order to obtain spatial diversity, the transmit sequence of relay is efficiently generated in the time domain, which is equivalent to the SFBC. Further, efficient implementation of relay and destination structures is also presented. Extensive simulation results show that the proposed system significantly outperforms the distributed space-time block code (D-STBC) SC-FDE over fast fading channels.

전 국토의 산지 비율이 높은 우리나라는 산림지의 특성이 수질에도 많은 영향을 미치고 있다. 산림지역의 화재에 있어 산림이 갖는 수질, 토성의 변화와 발생한 연소 퇴적물, 유기물로 인해 수자원에도 악영향을 끼치게 된다. 산불은 단순한 산림지의 자원 유실뿐만 아니라 토양층의 물리적약화와 강수저류 효과를 떨어뜨려, 산불 후 유출의 증가를 보인다. 삼척시의 산불 선행연구에 따르면, 산불 발생 직후, 지역의 직접 유출이 기저 유출보다 높게 나타났다. 이에 따라, 모든 수질인자의 평균 농도는 비발생지역에 비해 발생 지역의 농도가 현저하게 증가하였으며, 이 중 T-N, T-P, SS의 농도가 특히 크게 나타났다. 또한, 계류 수질의 경시적 변화를 분석한 결과, BOD와 COD는 산불 발생 최소 4개월의 기간을 거친 후 점차 안정화하는 모습을 보였다. 다만, 산불로 인해 훼손된 물 환경의 상황을 복구하고자 하는 연구의 데이터가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 2022년 4월 산불이 발생한 강원도 양구군 양구읍 송청리 비봉산 일대의 산불 유역을 대상으로 산불에 따른 물 환경의 변화를 밝힘으로써 산불로 훼손된 지역의 효과적인 수질 회복과 물 환경 보전 대책 수립을 위한 자료를 제공하고자 수행하였다. 2023년 4월 양구 비봉산의 산불 복구 작업이 본격적으로 시작되는데 복구 전 현재 수질의 상황을 살펴봤다. 조사 지역은 비봉산 일대의 산불 지역과 비발생 지역, 오봉산 일대까지의 유역 출구 총 7개의 지점을 선정하였다. 기본 수질항목은 현장에서 YSI PROPLUS (Mobile Multi Sensor Meter)를 이용하여 측정하였고 채취한 시료는 무균 채수 병에 담아 실험실로 운반하여 SS (Suspended Solids), TP(Total Phosphorus), TOC (Total Organic Carbon) 항목에 대해 수질오염공정시험기준에 의거하여 분석하였다. SS, TOC, t-p의 경우, 지정학적 특성, 산불에 의한 퇴적물들의 변화와 토양의 형태 및 식생의 변화로 인한 결과의 차이를 보였다. 1년이 지난 지금 산불 직후처럼 높은 수치는 보이지 않았다. 그러나 아직 복구 작업이 제대로 진행되지 않아 그 영향에 대해 무시할 정도로 안정화되지 않았다. 본 연구는 산불 발생 후 강우 및 토사유출에 대한 비 산불 지역과의 차이를 살펴봄으로써 수질 오염원으로 작용할 수 있는 가능성을 기초자료로 제공될 것이다. 또한, 수처리 기술개발을 포함한 예방책을 만들어 내는데, 기초자료로 활용할 수 있길 바란다.
