[Herald Economy (Daegu/Gyeongbuk) = Reporter Kim Sung-kwon] The National Maritime Science Museum announced on the 13th that it successfully held a “Marine Science Exploration Camp” with the Technod Design Graduate School of Kookmin University from the 10th to the 12th.

This camp was attended by about 50 students majoring in interactive design and professors from Kookmin University's Smart Experience Design Department. Among the participants were many international students from various countries, including China and Vietnam.

This camp, promoted in cooperation with Uljin County, became an opportunity to experimentally challenge creative content that combines marine science, art, and AI cutting-edge technology.

Over the course of three days, participants took part in various marine science special education programs and visited Uljin's major attractions and science and culture facilities in groups, raising their awareness of the value and importance of the sea.

In particular, through activities that combined AI technology and sensory experience design, participants created video and soundscape content using “the sounds of the sea” and “the unique landscape of Uljin Bay” as their themes.

The content will be used for future exhibitions and educational programs at the science center.

Kim Oi-cheol, director of the National Maritime Science Museum, said, “This camp is significant in that it brought together various experts, including foreign students, to pioneer a new genre that combines the ocean, art, and AI technology. We will continue to expand our marine content in collaboration with experts from Korea and abroad.”

The museum plans to actively utilize the graduate students' works in educational and exhibition content, while also collaborating with Uljin County to promote AI-based tourism content for the '2025 Uljin City Walk' event.
