Objective: The objective of this study was to suggest a multi-modal controller type for Smart TV Control. Background: Recently, many issues regarding the Smart TV are arising due to the rising complexity of features in a Smart TV. One of the specific issues involves what type of controller must be utilized in order to perform regulated tasks. This study examines the ongoing trend of the controller. Method: The selected participants had experiences with the Smart TV and were 20 to 30 years of age. A pre-survey determined the first independent variable of five tasks(Live TV, Record, Share, Web, App Store). The second independent variable was the type of controllers(Conventional, Mouse, Voice-Based Remote Controllers). The dependent variables were preference, task completion time, and error rate. The experiment consist a series of three experiments. The first experiment utilized a uni-modal Controller for tasks; the second experiment utilized a dual-modal Controller, while the third experiment utilized a triple-modal Controller. Results: The first experiment revealed that the uni-modal Controller (Conventional, Voice Controller) showed the best results for the Live TV task. The second experiment revealed that the dual-modal Controller(Conventional-Voice, Conventional-Mouse combinations) showed the best results for the Share, Web, App Store tasks. The third experiment revealed that the triple-modal Controller among all the level had not effective compared with dual-modal Controller. Conclusion: In order to control simple tasks in a smart TV, our results showed that a uni-modal Controller was more effective than a dual-modal controller. However, the control of complex tasks was better suited to the dual-modal Controller. User preference for a controller differs according the Smart TV functions. For instance, there was a high user preference for the uni-Controller for simple functions while high user preference appeared for Dual-Controllers when the task was complex. Additionally, in accordance with task characteristics, there was a high user preference for the Voice Controller for channel and volume adjustment. Furthermore, there was a high user preference for the Conventional Controller for menu selection. In situations where the user had to input text, the Voice Controller had the highest preference among users while the Mouse Type, Voice Controller had the highest user preference for performing a search or selecting items on the menu. Application: The results of this study may be utilized in the design of a controller which can effectively carry out the various tasks of the Smart TV.

As data broadcasting has become available, diverse contents can now be provided through digital TV, IPTV and DMB; yet it is true in the current situation that killer contents are insufficient that can satisfy users. On the contrary, in case of the web, with the advent of web 2.0 aiming at user-centered services, the contents market has grown greatly. The ideas and technologies of Web 2.0, if gratified into data broadcasting, are expected to make a contribution to the vitalization of contents. This paper proposes a method of using RSS, as a concrete example of applying web 2.0 to data broadcasting. Accordingly, we have developed a system for producing data services for the ground wave DMB data broadcasting, by using RSS at the stage of authoring news and the like, for which provision of the latest information is important. And for IPTV, we have developed a data broadcasting application so that users can select the RSS they want, as well as a creation system for using RSS at the authoring stage. It is anticipated that the application of RSS by means of the system will simplify the authoring process, making easy the provision of the latest information through the web, and thereby making possible the provision of diverse services to users.

The Ontology is the concept of human beings in any sense to classify things as departure from the classification based on the meaning at the prensent situation and concepts as the object of the Ontology. also, the technology is shared the conceptualization in a formal ontology as a meaning to give a clear description to the conceptual engineering in the ontology. Specialized multimedia broadcasting of TV-Anytime standard and multimedia representation of the overall standard of the MPEG-7 based on the concept of broadcasting multimedia presentations that can be used to develop an ontology who is required. In this paper, in TV-Anytime and MPEG-7 multimedia standard for broadcasting multimedia contents based on standards developed for the ontology, an ontology language for expressing OWL (Web Ontology Language) and RDF (Resource Description Framework) and the broadcast contents using To represent metadata of the system who has been developed.

3-Screen service means that one video contents is operated on 3 different terminals(smart-phone, IP-TV, internet PC) with same service browser. In this paper, we developed 3-Screen video service system based on imbedded web browser. We evaluated and analysed of developed 3-Screen service system through Agribusiness video service offering test environment on the LG U+ network. As a result of tests, it showed that 3-Screen video service was well performed in each 3-Screen service terminals. The result of this paper will be utilized in various application developments for the 3-Screen video service in the future.

Smart TV has been the most popular communication device since 2010. It is the multi-functional device conjugated a variety of features such as Apps, Web surfing, viewing VOD and so on. However, the contents and development tools for smart TV are still relatively small and research for game contents development tools is also insufficient. In this study, we are to design and develop a framework for developers to make Smart TV game contents easily. The STGF (Smart TV Game Framework) we developed is made up of 3 managers such as input manager, screen data process manager, and game status process manager. We verified the usefulness of STGF through developing "Pentomiro" App launched commercially in 2013. With STGF development time would be expected to be reduced, because we spend little time in basic development steps such as input, output, and data processing and error correction processing.

The technology convergence of television, communication, and computing devices enables the rich social and entertaining experience through Smart TV in personal living space. The powerful smart TV computing platform allows to provide various user interaction interfaces like IR remote control, web based control, body gesture based control, etc. The presently used smart TV interaction user control methods are not efficient and user-friendly to access different type of media content and services and strongly required advanced way to control and access to the smart TV with easy user interface. This paper propose the optical wireless communication (OWC) based remote controller design for Smart TV using smart device Flashlights. In this approach, the user smart device act as a remote controller with touch based interactive smart device application and transfer the user control interface data to smart TV trough Flashlight using visible light communication method. The smart TV built-in camera follows the optical camera communication (OCC) principle to decode data and control smart TV user access functions according. This proposed method is not harmful as radio frequency (RF) radiation does it on human health and very simple to use as well user does need to any gesture moves to control the smart TV.

In recent years, the mobile OS market, enlargement and, at the same time, Android has mounted various smart phones and feature air conditioning, smart TV, cleaning robot, camera, etc. that the number is being spread at a rapid pace. But a lot of devices to control the modules and applications at once, this is not a device for controlling the dissemination of applications all in one place, and in charge of the devices that allow you to manage applications are lacking. Accordingly, in this paper, use the Web Server registered in the appliance can be controlled by management, Web access, is proposing and designing the system. This is the current research is actively in progress in the field of IoT (Internet of Things) would be utilized.

Web2.0의 고도화와 소셜미디어의 진화에 따라 웹 기반 콘텐츠에 대한 다양한 활용이 시도되고 있다. 또한, IPTV 부분에서는 기존의 TV기반에서 Web기반, Mobile기반 서비스로 확산되고 있다. 이러한 멀티디바이스 환경과 웹기반 콘텐츠의 IPTV 활용 서비스를 위해서는 콘텐츠에 대한 정의와 이를 표현하기 위한 메타데이터에 대한 정의가 필요하다. 이를 위해서 관련 표준화 단체를 분석한 후 이들이 제공하는 콘텐츠 메타데이터의 연관관계를 비교 분석하였다. IPTV 서비스를 위한 콘텐츠 메타데이터는 TV AnyTime Phase1 을 바탕으로 각 표준기구의 네트워크 상황과 서비스 방식에 따라 선택적으로 적용하고 있으며, VOD 서비스를 위해서는 CableLab의 ADI 메타데이터를 적용하고 있다. 향후 멀티디바이스 환경에서 IPTV 서비스를 위해서는 메타데이터에 대한 확장 연구가 필요하다.
