It is well-known fact that woodworking activity could contribute in enhancing creativity, scientific problem-solving ability, spatial perception ability and prosocial behavior of children. However, there is little chance that children experience woodworking at home or in kindergarten. This study was conducted to know how much children and adults have done woodworking in there daily life and how they perceived children's woodworking activity. Woodworking activities for children (N=207, 5 and 6 year old kids) with adults (N=271, only fathers) were carried out in 10 kindergartens of Cheongju. Actually, the survey result shows that very few children and adults experienced woodworking in their daily life. 62.8% of children and 34.3% of adults surveyed responded that they had never done woodworking. However, the greater part of children and adults evaluated the woodworking activity positively. Over 95% of children surveyed responded that their woodworking activity was fun and they want to play woodworking again. Over 73% of adults surveyed responded that children's woodworking activity was safe, and over 99% of adults surveyed responded that they can recommend children's woodworking activity to others. In conclusion, the development of safe tools and programs for children's woodworking activity helps its spread and activation.

This paper introduces the high density discrete wavelet transform using quincunx sampling, which is a discrete wavelet transformation that combines the high density discrete transformation and non-separable processing method, each of which has its own characteristics and advantages. The high density discrete wavelet transformation is one that expands an N point signal to M transform coefficients with M > N. The high density discrete wavelet transformation is a new set of dyadic wavelet transformation with two generators. The construction provides a higher sampling in both time and frequency. This new transform is approximately shift-invariant and has intermediate scales. In two dimensions, this transform outperforms the standard discrete wavelet transformation in terms of shift-invariant. Although the transformation utilizes more wavelets, sampling rates are high costs and some lack a dominant spatial orientation, which prevents them from being able to isolate those directions. A solution to this problem is a non separable method. The quincunx lattice is a non-separable sampling method in image processing. It treats the different directions more homogeneously than the separable two dimensional schemes. Proposed wavelet transformation can generate sub-images of multiple degrees rotated versions. Therefore, This method services good performance in image processing fields.

Map matching technique is an essential part of the car navigation and other related positioning fields such as dead reckoning and GPS data logging upon the GIS database. This paper is to break down map matching techniques, to categorize them, and to propose a simple technique for GPS based map matching technique. For categorization of techniques, two approaches have been adopted. One is to only use geometric information, and the other is to use both geometric and topological information. Some pros and cons of each method have been described. In addition, a simple map matching technique, set forth in this paper, has been introduced for properly utilizing the advantage of GPS points after the absence of the chronic problem of selective availability, which had been prevailed recently. Some research opportunities and problems of the technique have also been discussed.

Road traffic-related environment problems has become now serious problem common in the urban life throughout the world. In this study, a GIS-supported evaluation system has been developed for dealing with the road traffic-related environment problems, especially focusing on air Pollution in the urban areas. The developed system consists lof three essential parts: GIS; traffic-related air pollution simulation model; and the database for potential strategies. In establishing the simulation model, a GIS-supported environment can provide a useful tool for handling a wide range of data characterizing study areas and for preparing more accurate estimation on real locations. Such roles of the GIS-supported system can be helpful to more efficient analysis and more reasonable decision-makings. As a preliminary stage in developing the system, the metropolitan area of Cairo in Egypt was applying into being as a Pilot study to test the Potentiality of the prototype system.

This paper mainly introduces the methods of extracting landslide information using ALOS(Advanced Land Observing Satellite) images and GIS(Geographical Information System) technology. In this study, we classified images using three different methods which are the unsupervised the supervised and the PCA(Principal Components Analysis) for extracting landslide information based on characteristics of ALOS image. From the image classification results, we found out that the quality of classified image extracted with PCA supervised method was superior than the other images extracted with the other methods. But the accuracy of landslide information extracted from this image classification was still very low as the pixels were very similar between the landslide and safety regions. It means that it is really difficult to distinguish those areas with an image classification method alone because the values of pixels between the landslide and other areas were similar, particularly in a region where the landslide and other areas coexist. To solve this problem, we used the LSM(Landslide Susceptibility Map) created with ArcView software through weighted overlay GIS method in the areas. Finally, the developed LSM was applied to the image classification process using the ALOS images. The accuracy of the extracted landslide information was improved after adopting the PCA and LSM methods. Finally, we found that the landslide region in the study area can be calculated and the accuracy can also be improved with the LSM and PCA image classification methods using GIS tools.

Nowadays, echosouder has been widely used in sea survey and ship navigation. By utilizing echosounder, we can measure the depth of water reliability. However, the problem is that depth update rate drops remarkably when sea bottom is shallow or steep/rugged. Therefore, we have developed an optimized algorithm to process tranducer's soundwave signals at high-speed and minimize error. Processing algorithm is implemented by the latest DSP processor (TMS320F2812), consequently, high-speed data processing can be achieved. Performance of the proposed algorithm is verified by experiments and compared with existing algorithms. It has shown that our method results in higher precision in water depth measurement than other methods.

A keyboard system for hands-free virtual reality head mounted display using electrooculogram (EOG) signal which occurs during the eye-blinking is proposed. This system consists of display device, gyroscope sensor, gravity sensor and electro-encephalogram (EEG) sensor, and it is implemented with Unity3D engine for system control and graphic processing. If the input language of proposed keyboard system is Korean, i.e. Hangul, the Chonjiin keyboard method is utilized; but for the English spelling, numbers or special characters, $3{\times}4$ keyboard method is used in order to solve the spatial problem. By the implemented method, it can be verified that the user can handle the keyboard input of virtual reality head mounted display with only neck movement and EOG, instead of using hands.

This paper proposes a new 3D image transmission technique using digital watermarking for compatibility with conventional 2D digital TV. To transmit 3D images effectively, generally, we use image sequence transmission using temporal-spatial redundancy between stereo images. It is difficult for users with conventional digital TV to watch the transmitted 3D image sequence because of effectivity of 3D image compression. To improve such problem, in this paper, we perceive the concealment of new information of digital watermarking and conceal information of the other stereo image into three channels of the reference image. So we can watch the image with 3D TV as well as conventional digital TV when it is decoded.
