Abstract

The highest percentage of single-person households is older than 60. Many of them live in dilapidated residential space because they are in difficult economic situations. The windows of them often don't exist or don't function properly as windows. As a result, they are suffering from social problems such as depression, solitude. This paper proposes an interactive window interface that reflects external environmental information for older people in their 60s or older of one household living in a dilapidated residential space. This content utilizes an inexpensive TV or PC monitor that doesn't require extra space and cost. Recognizing a user's hand through intuitive touch-sensing technology, which doesn't require much help from older people, this content provides weather videos and temperature information that reflect current external environment. Alert notification sound and SMS service are provided in preparation for more critical user emergencies. This content enables users to feel emotional stability and respond quickly to emergencies.

1인가구의 가장 높은 비율을 차지하는 연령층은 60대 이상의 노인이다. 그들의 상당수가 경제적으로 어려운 상황에 처해있어 낙후된 주거공간에 거주한다. 노인의 주거공간의 창문은 존재하지 않거나 창문으로써의 역할을 제대로 하지 못하는 경우가 많다. 그들은 우울증, 고독사 등 사회적 문제에 취약한 상태로 노출되어 있다. 그래서 비상상황에 대한 대처능력이 현저히 떨어진다. 본 논문은 낙후된 주거공간에 거주하는 1인가구 중 60대 이상 노인을 대상으로 하는 외부 환경 정보 반영 대화형 창문 인터페이스를 제안한다. 본 콘텐츠는 별도의 공간과 비용이 요구되지 않는 보급형 TV 혹은 PC 모니터를 활용한다. 노인이 사용하는데 어려움이 없는 직관적인 터치센싱을 통해 손을 인식하면 현재 외부 환경을 반영하는 날씨 영상, 온도 정보를 제공한다. 보다 중요한 노인의 비상상황에 대비하여 알림소리, SMS전송 서비스를 제공한다. 본 콘텐츠를 통해 사용자는 정서적 안정을 느낄 수 있고 비상상황에 빠르게 대처할 수 있다.
