본 논문에서는 키넥트 센서를 활용하여 노년층을 위한 헬스케어 어플리케이션을 설계하고 구현한다. 이 어플리케이션 메뉴는 전체 동작과 부분 동작으로 구성한다. 각 동작은 국민 건강증진센터에서 노년층에 장려하는 신체 각 부위별 스트레칭 10개 동작들을 구현한다. 신체의 각 부위는 온몸, 목, 무릎, 종아리로 분류한다. 전체 동작은 총 10개의 연속적인 동작들로 구성했으며 각 동작을 5초 이상 취할 경우 다음 동작으로 자동적으로 넘어가도록 구현한다. 각 동작이 진행되면서 동작 캐릭터 상태가 노년에서 청년으로 점점 젊어지게 함으로써 흥미를 느끼도록 한다. 부분 동작은 신체 어느 한 부분을 집중적으로 스트레칭 하고자 하는 사용자들에게 원하는 신체 부위(온몸, 목, 무릎, 종아리) 중 1개를 선택하여 집중적으로 스트레칭 할 수 있도록 구현한다. 전체적인 사운드는 어플리케이션의 분위기에 적합하도록 조용한 종류의 사운드로 구현하여 사용자로 하여금 편안한 감정을 느끼도록 구현한다.

According to the Korea National Statistical Office data in 2008, the population over ages of 65 years would possess to 10.7% whole population of Korea in 2009 denoting Korea is already in the aging society. It is well-known that the possibility to work longer and to live better is highly related to the work ability of individuals. The objective of this study is to evaluate the work ability of each aged group using the Work Ability Index(WAI) in the shipbuilding industry, machinery industry and Korea housing corporation, and to assess the effect of the type of business, age and job on the WAI score. The results showed that no significant difference was identified on the effect of aging although work ability of some group(over 55 years) was a little higher than that of others. Also, type of business and job had a significant effect on WAI score. These results suggested that the work ability is not necessarily related to aging in Korean society. One possible explanation for this might be different cultural characteristics of Korean society.
