Sono Hisashi,Takaaki Ueno,Keita Okabe,Kiyoshi Tomimatsu 한국디자인학회 2010 한국디자인학회 학술발표대회 논문집 Vol.2010 No.10

The purpose of this paper is to propose new usage of the web site where the environmental sensor data named Pachube (or also known as patch bay) is used and shared. Pachube which is made by Usman Haque is able to see real-time sensor data (temperature, humidity, force of the wind, electric power, etc.) from many parts of the world. Using Pachube, everyone can acquire information on the environmental sensor data. In addition, everyone can input the sensor data to it. Informations are up-loaded and updated to Pachube in real time. Therefore, it is also possible to send and receive the sensor data in real time. In this paper, we actually input the wind sensor data to Pachube, and the sensor data is shared with the person in all parts of the world. Using this method, we devised the new method of using Pachube . In addition, we thought that it will help user to understand the environmental issue. Therefore, we produced the serious game by using Pachube. The serious game doesn't aim at the entertainment. It is a genre of the computer game that is aimed for the education and the medical treatment. We thought that the user will be able to understand the environment sensor data that had been happily visualized from changing it into the game. The user can experience the environment in the world while playing the game. The difficulty of the game changes according to time zone and the season because the environment sensor data changes in real time. Therefore, an elemental difference from a usual game is included in this game. As the content of the game, it is the content that young and old, man and woman can enjoy because of its simplicity, i.e. a game of avoiding obstacles.

In the field of user experience design, persona has been used continuously as a central tool in goal-oriented design process. In recent years, several attempts have been made to further develop persona into the field of user experience design, such as proto-persona and quantitative data-based persona used in lean UX methodology. Research about quantitative data-based persona is still at an early stage and there are few solutions to collect data that will be used for user experience design. This study is focused on suggesting a foundation study and a modeling framework for constructing a quantitative data - based referrer persona. Web services can be obtained basic quantitative behaviour data from existing log analysis tools but have limitations in obtaining data that directly affect the user experience design. Therefore, research about improving web usage data analysis solution had conducted. In addition, to study the framework of the referrer persona, study have conducted about framework of the existing formal and proto-persona and key elements that make up the modeling of the referrer persona. Then, through a concrete case study, suggested referrer persona framework had applied. Beusable solution home page had used for modeling referrer persona based on the actual collected quantitative data. Referrer persona was made with quantitative data to show behaviour patterns of referral users and reviewed by beusable members. In conclusion, this study suggested the basic research, framework and case studies of the quantitative data based referrer persona and its effectiveness and applicability.

이지현 ( Lee Ji Hyun ),키요시토미마츠 ( Kiyoshi Tomimatsu ) 한국기초조형학회 2018 기초조형학연구 Vol.19 No.2

퍼소나는 사용자경험디자인분야에서 목표를 중심으로 경험을 디자인하는 목표지향방법론의 중심도구로써 소프트웨어를 비롯한 다양한 분야에 활용되고 있는 모델링 기법이다. 전통적으로 퍼소나 구축을 위해서는 정성적인 사용자 리서치 방법을 통해 도출한 필드리서치 데이터가 필수적이다. 하지만, 최근 빠른 퍼소나 모델링과 적용을 위한 시도가 생기고 있으며, 정량 데이터를 기반으로 데이터기반퍼소나에 연구의 필요성이 커지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 웹사이트의 정량 데이터를 추출하는 방법을 연구하여 퍼소나 모델링에 효과적인 데이터 체계를 정의하고 핵심 링크를 선택한 사용자 유형과 핵심 링크를 사용하지 않은 사용자 유형을 구분하여 모델링 하고자 한다. 웹서비스의 목적이 되는 핵심적인 링크를 선택한 사용자 유형의 데이터를 분석하는 방법은 배너광고 등 마케팅에서는 CTA(Call-to-action)이라는 명칭으로 널리 사용되어 왔으나 사용자 경험디자인 분야 및 퍼소나 모델링을 위한 체계로는 활용이 미비하였다. CTA 기반 퍼소나 모델링을 위해 우선 모델링의 기초가 되는 정량적 데이터 유형을 정의하였고 퍼소나의 구조를 정의하였다. 그런 다음, 특정 사례 연구를 선정하여 핵심이 되는 링크를 선정하고 핵심 링크를 클릭한 사용자와 그렇지 않은 사용자 유형을 구분하여 각각 퍼소나 모델링을 구현하였다. 구현한 퍼소나 모델링 결과는 사례 연구 대상 기업의 관리자를 대상으로 전문가 평가를 실시하여 유효성을 검증하였다. 본 연구를 통해 정량적 데이터를 기반으로 CTA 퍼소나를 빠르게 정의하고 UX 디자인 분야의 의사결정에 활용할 수 있는 체계적인 방안을 제시하였다. Persona is a main tool of goal-orient methodology that designs experience centered on goals in user experience design field which is a modeling technique that is applied in many fields including software. Traditionally, to build a persona, field research data derived from a qualitative user research method is essential. Recently, however, attempts for quick persona modeling have been made and a need for research on quantitative data-based persona is growing. In this study, a method of extracting the quantitative data of the web site will be studied, effective data system for persona modeling will be defined, and the user type that selects the core link and the other user type that does not select the core link will be modeled separately. Method of analyzing the data of the user types that selects the core link that is the purpose of the web service has been widely used in the name of CTA (Call-to-action) in marketing such as banner advertisement. However, The system was not utilized well. For CTA-based persona modeling, quantitative data types which are the basis of modeling were defined and the structure of persona is defined. Then, specific case studies were conducted to select a core link, and the users who clicked on the core link and the users who did not click were distinguished and modeled into personas. The results of the modeled persona were verified by conducting an expert evaluation through business officials from the companies of the case studies. Through this study, systematic ways to quickly define CTA Persona based on quantitative data and apply it to decision making in UX design field have been proposed.

Chiang Chenwei,Anak Agung Gede Dharma,Kiyoshi Tomimatsu 한국멀티미디어학회 2011 한국멀티미디어학회 국제학술대회 Vol.2011 No.-

In this paper, we propose a new interaction method system which utilizes mobile application and social media. At present, a new digital service, which is called Social Networking Service (SNS), is emerging and gradually become worldwide phenomenon. SNS has been proven to affects habitual pattern of internet users, as well as influenced their daily lives. Based on those facts, we propose a framework to utilize SNS possibilities in the form of a mobile application. In order to describe the framework, we describe two case studies that explain possible alternatives for utilizing social networking service. The first case consists of a mobile application that integrates SNS messages to promote positive habits. The other one is a new communication tool that combines augmented reality (AR) technology, SNS, and mobile device. Furthermore, through those cases we discovered a new way to communicate and interact through SNS. Our findings suggest that SNS has profound possibilities to be used as an innovative communication tool. In particular, by combining latest technologies and analyzing inherent mental models we can conclude that our study has explored an alternative way to unleash one of the SNS’ potentials.
