This study is about an efficient synthesis of $360^{\circ}$ video and 3D graphics. First, the video image filmed by a binocular integral type $360^{\circ}$ camera was stitched, and location values of the camera and objects were extracted. And the data of extracted location values were moved to the 3D program to create 3D objects, and the methods for natural compositing was researched. As a result, as the method for natural compositing of $360^{\circ}$ video image and 3D graphics, rendering factors and rendering method were derived. First, as for rendering factors, there were 3D objects' location and quality of material, lighting and shadow. Second, as for rendering method, actual video based rendering method's necessity was found. Providing the method for natural compositing of $360^{\circ}$ video image and 3D graphics through this study process and results is expected to be helpful for research and production of $360^{\circ}$ video image and VR video contents.

As the paradigm of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is expanding, VR devices and their contents industry are drawing more and more attention as the digital devices of the next generation. Of the realms of VR contents, $360^{\circ}$ 3D videos are receiving the most attention in the field of media, and they are being utilized by Google as educational contents. As such, this research analyzes actual condition of use and motivation of using corresponding contents through survey of $360^{\circ}$ 3D video users. Results show that the most utilized platform is Youtube, and the genres which the respondents have used or are willing to use turned out to be Games and Movies.

영화관 발전 이유는(보통 영화,3D MIX,4D)관중 시청각 효과가 위해서 발전한다. 이제 까지 최고한 시청각 효과 받을 수 있는 기술을 $VR360^{\circ}$ Degree panoramic video촬영 기술 밖에 없다. 하지만 이 기술을 전통 영화 촬영 기술 보다 완전히 다르다. 이 기술 영화 방면 운용하면 원래 영화적 이론 크게 충격 받다.

가상 현실 시장은 꾸준한 성장을 하고 있다. 가상 현실 시장이 성장함에 따라 게임 엔진을 이용한 가상 현실콘텐츠 뿐만 아니라 실제 특수 디바이스를 이용하여 촬영한 $360^{\circ}$ 비디오 콘텐츠 시장도 성장하고 있다. 하지만 실제로 촬영한 $360^{\circ}$ 비디오같은 경우 4D 가상 현실 콘텐츠를 즐기기 위해서는 먼저 특수 장치와 $360^{\circ}$ 비디오 간의 이벤트를 정의해야 하는 성가심이 있다. 이러한 불편함을 극복하기 위해 물리적 감각 효과를 일으키는 객체를 인식하고 서술하는 기법을 제시한다. $360^{\circ}$비디오 내의 감각 효과를 일으키는 객체를 인식하고 좌표계 내에 위치를 설정하여 사용자와의 거리가 임계값 이하면 효과를 일으키게 하여 사전에 콘텐츠를 확인하고 감각 효과를 미리 설정하는 번거로움을 없앨 수 있다.

There exist a variety of VR(Virtual Reality) contents that have been developed by the use of the latest VR technologies. Unlike the rapid advances in the recent VR devices however, the development of VR based game contents that fully utilize such cutting-edge devices has been lackluster. Using more accessible form of smartphone-based HMDs(Head-Mounted Displays), we compare two popular VR presentation methods(a realistic 3D VR karaoke room and a 360 degree video karaoke room) and analyze their users' immersion and realistic perception. We expect that our study can be utilized as a supporting guideline for future smartphone-based VR content developments.

360-degree virtual reality has been a technology that has been available for a long time and has been actively promoted worldwide in recent years due to development of devices such as HMD (Head Mounted Display) and development of hardware for controlling and executing images of virtual reality. The production of the 360 degree VR requires a different mode of production than the traditional video production, and the matters to be considered for the user have begun to appear. Since the virtual reality image is aimed at a platform that requires enthusiasm, presence and interaction, it is necessary to have a suitable cinematography. In VR, users can freely enjoy the world created by the director and have the advantage of being able to concentrate on his interests during playing the image. However, the director had to develope and install the device what the observer could concentrate on the narrative progression and images to be delivered. Among the various methods of transmitting images, the director can use the composition of the short. In this paper, we will study how to effectively apply the technique of directing through the composition of this shot to 360 degrees virtual reality. Currently, there are no killer contents that are still dominant in the world, including inside and outside the country. In this situation, the potential of virtual reality is recognized and various images are produced. So the way of production follows the traditional image production method, and the shot composition is the same. However, in the 360 degree virtual reality, the use of the long take or blocking technique of the conventional third person view point is used as the main production configuration, and the limit of the short configuration is felt. In addition, while the viewer can interactively view the 360-degree screen using the HMD tracking, the configuration of the shot and the connection of the shot are absolutely dependent on the director like the existing cinematography. In this study, I tried to study whether the viewer can freely change the cinematography such as the composition of the shot at a user's desired time using the feature of interaction of the VR image. To do this, 3D animation was created using a game tool called Unreal Engine to construct an interactive image. Using visual scripting of Unreal Engine called blueprint, we create a device that distinguishes the true and false condition of a condition with a trigger node, which makes a variety of shorts. Through this, various direction techniques are developed and related research is expected, and it is expected to help the development of 360 degree VR image.
