가상 혼합현실은 현재 가장 큰 관심을 받고 있는 연구 분야 중 하나이다. 하지만 아직 가상 혼합현실에 대한 정형화된 표준이 없는 상태에서 여러 가지 가상 혼합현실 기기들이 나오고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이미 상용화되었거나 곧 상용화 될 기기들에 대한 비교 분석을 수행한다. 그리고 정리한 내용을 토대로 가상 혼합현실 기기들의 동향 및 발전 전망을 살펴본다.

The salient features of UWB(Ultra WideBand) networks such as high-rate communications, low interference with other radio systems, and low power consumption bring many benefits to users, thus enabling several new applications such as wireless universal serial bus (WUSB) for connecting personal computers (PCs) to their peripherals and the consumer-electronics (CE) in people's living rooms. Because the size of multimedia data frame, WiMedia device must transmit the fragment of MSDU. However, when the fragment of MSDU is lost, WiMedia device maintains active mode for the time to complete the transmission MSDU, and there is a problem that unnecessary power consumption occurs. Therefore we propose new power management scheme to reduce unnecessary power consumption of WiMedia devices in the case that the fragment is lost.

Nowadays, mobile users have a huge amount of multimedia contents and can use these contents anytime, anywhere by advance in computer and network techniques. However, users spend too much time for searching and managing these contents in web and local file system. Expecially, small and uncomfortable user interfaces of mobile devices make it difficult to search and manage multimedia contents. Therefore, an intelligent multimedia contents management technique is needed to use these contents more efficiently. In this paper, we propose a Personalized Mobile Multimedia Contents Provider (PMMCP) System which provides personalized multimedia contents based on users' psychological patterns and situations.

Authentication is needed to use safe devices in the home network environment. In this authentication, there are an ID base form and Certification base form. In case of an ID base form, it is difficult to apply to the multi domain environment and in case of an Certification base form, because the way that contains and stores the certificate demand on devices, additional setting of the user is needed for transfer of ownership and purchase of new devices, and more. Because both ways attend an individual authentication for devices, the ways exist overhead as the frequent authentication for a lot of devices in service aspects of user needs. To arrange these problems, in this paper, the authentication information of devices can be securely stored and managed in the java card and a processing time of the authentication could be improved better then the existing technique by authenticating a group of service.

Smart electronics are now widely used in everyday life, but the size of the screen of such devices is still too small to fully enjoy multimedia content. Therefore, if the display is comprised of multiple views produced by multiple smart devices, then the screen output size can increase. However, a time delay between the devices can generate a discordance in the video and sound. This paper compares two synchronization techniques that can be used to minimize such a time delay, and proposes a synchronization technique in which, the timing of the screen for each device is calculated by synchronizing the playback time, using the timing information transferred from the control device, and periodically adjusting the playback timing forward or backward. When multimedia content is reproduced using multiple views from multiple smart devices, we can minimize the time delay, regardless of the network quality or the differences in the devices used for this technique.

Improvement of Wireless internet and handheld devices makes it possible that users can use various multimedia services. But, access point devices are needed while using handheld devices, and those devices use virtual network address for networking. For that reason, end-users hardly use the 1:1 voice or video chat, and messenger service that require direct communications between devices. Also, service providers need central server for relaying packets from terminals to others, the traffic and costs of relaying go high, so real-time massive data transmission services are restrictively provided. In this study, we apply TCP/UDP hole punching technique to those applications. And we implement service that supports real-time multimedia direct transmission between equipments that use virtual network addresses.

Human face tracking has gradually become an important issue in applications for portable multimedia devices such as digital camcorder, digital still camera and cell phone. Current embedded face tracking software implementations lack the processing abilities to track faces in real time mobile video processing. In this paper, we propose a power efficient hardware-based face tracking architecture operating in real time. The proposed system was verified by FPGA prototyping and ASIC implementation using Samsung 65nm CMOS process. The implementation result shows that tracking speed is less than 8.4 msec with 150K gates and 20 mW average power consumption. Consequently it is validated that the proposed system is adequate for portable multimedia device.

This paper presents a novel automatic white balance (AWB) algorithm for consumer imaging devices. While existing AWB methods require reference white patches to correct color, the proposed method performs the AWB function using only an input image in two steps: i) white point detection, and ii) color constancy gain computation. Based on the dark channel prior assumption, a white point or region can be accurately extracted, because the intensity of a sufficiently bright achromatic region is higher than that of other regions in all color channels. In order to finally correct the color, the proposed method computes color constancy gain values based on the Y component in the XYZ color space. Experimental results show that the proposed method gives better color-corrected images than recent existing methods. Moreover, the proposed method is suitable for real-time implementation, since it does not need a frame memory for iterative optimization. As a result, it can be applied to various consumer imaging devices, including mobile phone cameras, compact digital cameras, and computational cameras with coded color.

Today's modern society can be called the era of convergence. Mobile communication industry has become a rapid transformation to the era of mobile convergence. Smart phone users increasingly rapidly and the new role and value of smart phones is increasing in all walks of life, the impact of knowledge and information society, to accelerate the more recent case of Korea, determined to become more. The convergence of these, provided the creation of new value of the smart phone. It is intended to provide the ability to control television, set-top box, multimedia devices by using a smart phone.
