KAIST To Open Cultural Activity Classes
KAIST To Open Cultural Activity Classes KAIST will open classes of Cultural Activity (CA) this fall semester, and many of them will be instructed by students. CA classes are regular classes opened to create a better atmosphere on campus and broaden students’ sociality and provide opportunities of diverse experiences to enhance students’ qualities as elite scientists. All classes will be provided at night or weekend to allow students to take part in cultural activities of their interests. Total 21 classes, such as animation, photo-taking, electronic guitar, classic guitar, Ocarina, Inline skate, Haedong kendo, weight training, yoga, Tae-keuk-kwon, aerobic, recreation, hacking, drum playing, etc., will be provided, and 15 of them, such as animation, photo-taking, electronic guitar, etc., will be lectured by students. The students-lectured classes have been selected after thorough examination of lecture plans. Leadership Mileage Points (LMP) will be offered to students both of lecturing and attending CA classes and, in the case of freshmen, a credit will be admitted for the obligatory subject of leadership demanding two credits. A larger number of students than the enrollment capacity have applied for the classes within a day. CA classes are expected to change campus life in KAIST. Meanwhile, students will be given LMPs for each of their activities, such as humanity/ leadership lectures, on-campus voluntary services, off-campus voluntary services, mind and body training, exchange student activity, field experiences, etc., and will be issued a leadership certificate graded as ‘silver’, ‘gold’, ‘platinum’ and ‘diamond’ according to the accumulative LMPs in graduation. A personal certificate describing the details of on-campus activities by students will also be issued to help students’ employment activities. KAIST has recently introduced a new two-dimensional admission policy that evaluates applicants’ humanities as well as academic achievements, based on President Suh’s judgment that students with expertise but no humanity will not be able to create the bright future of Korea. The LMP has the same purport as the new policy in that enrolled students are also to be evaluated in two aspects - humanity and academic achievements, and will bring a new paradigm to Korean education.

KAIST To Hold Robot Competition
KAIST To Hold Robot Competition KAIST (President Nam-Pyo Suh) will be holding ‘the 6th Intelligent SoC Robotwar 2007’ and is now receiving online applications at the official web site of the competition, www.socrobotwar.org. Application deadline is May 31, Thursday. ‘Intelligent SoC Robotwar’ is a competition of intelligent robots employing System on Chip (SoC) that commenced in 2002. In the competition, participants will embody their ideas in the same intelligent robot platforms and robot bodies, and how well the ideas are embodied will decide winners. In the part of tank robot competition (left photo), tank-like robots attack enemy robots by using laser, which demands technologies of scene analysis, radio communication and speech recognition. Hence, a variety of recognition algorithms and motion algorithms significantly affect match results. Taekwon robot competition is a fight competition of two-leg robots. In the competition, robots equipped with scene analysis technologies perceive the location, distance and motion of enemy robots and do motions of attack and defense with no control by operators. Teams must be made up of two or more persons including undergraduate or graduate students and all teams are entitled to participate in theoretical and practical education on platform boards for robots and intelligent robots. Final winner will be decided through qualifying test, preliminary matches and main matches. “The most distinct characteristic of this competition is robot’s intelligence takes top priority. It’s not remote control-operated robots but autonomously operating intelligent robots that will make Korean robot-related industries further profitable. Considering that last year, total 138 teams participated in the competition and an award from the Prime Minister was given to the winner, the competition undoubtedly hold the top position among robot-related competitions,” said Hee-Joon You, President of the competition committee and a professor of Electrical Engineering. Details on the competition are as follows:1. Purpose● To foster highly specialized technicians in the field of SoC through the embodiment of intellectual robots adopting SoC● To pave foundations for the enhancement of national competitiveness through the vitalization of IT-SoC and intellectual robot fields, next-generation growth momenta 2.

3rd Ubiquitous Fashionable Computer Contest
KAIST will be receiving until May 31, Thursday, applications for ‘the 3rd Ubiquitous Fashionable Computer (UFC)’ Contest, which will take place under the title of ‘Enjoy U-life with UFC’. The contest has begun in 2005 by KAIST and the Korean Society for Next-Generation Computing to raise people’s concern over next-generation computing and to prepare for the upcoming ubiquitous era. ‘UFC’ refers to a wearable computer small and light enough to be worn on human bodies or clothes so that users can use computers with no restriction while moving. This terminology was created by Korea. The contest includes designated items division and free items division, and not only university students but also general public can participate in the free items division. Teams qualified for the final contest in the designated items division will be offered wearable computer platform and 1.5 million won of production cost. The final contest will take place at the UFC fashion show stage ‘Next-Generation Computing Exhibition’ at KOEX in November. Hee-Joon You, Co-president of the Contest Committee and a professor of Electrical Engineering, stressed on the future life made joyful by IT technologies by saying, “Considering the title of the contest, we’ve selected ‘games enjoyed with UFCs’ as a mission of the designated items division to combine games, rising software, and wearing computers, hardware.” UFC is a brand-new field that fuses IT technologies and fashion, seeking the improvement of computer technologies and fashion creation. UFC, a further advanced wearable computer than existing ones, is an important advanced field that leads computer industries in the ubiquitous era.
