In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in tangible sports simulators with the success of golf simulator. The main purpose of this study is to develop a tangible snowboard simulator for the beginner using virtual reality technology. This paper proposes an interactive virtual coach and high fidelity virtual environment for snowboard training. The virtual coach offers an intuitive guidance and personalized coaching feedback about the 5 fundamental riding skills. The virtual training environment uses the stereoscopic display system and motion platform to create more realistic training situation. We expect virtual reality will be used as a training aids in many sports such as taekwondo, baseball, archery and so on.

가상현실(VR)은 현실 세계를 인공적인 기술을 활용하여 실제로 얻기 힘든 경험이나 환경 등을 제공해 인체의 오감(시각, 청각, 후각, 미각, 촉각)을 자극함으로써 실제와 같이 체험하게 하는 기술로써 게임, 영화, 스포츠, 테마파크와 같이 엔터테인먼트 목적으로 개발되는 경우가 많다. 본 논문에서는 Oculus Touch 및 Oculus Rift를 이용한 VR(Virtual Reality) 올림픽 종목의 스포츠를 설계하고 구현한 시스템을 제안한다. 올림픽 종목 중에 인기종목인 양궁, 사격, 테니스, 탁구 총 4가지 종목으로 구성되어 있으며, 특히 AI를 이용한 경쟁을 통해 종목별 스코어(점수)를 평가함으로서 경쟁구도를 형성한다. 또한, 시각적인 자극을 통해 흥미를 이끌어내고 현실적인 환경을 구현함으로써 유저가 실제 현장에 있는 것 같은 느낌을 제공하며, 세계적인 올림픽 스포츠를 유저들이 직접 즐기고 느낄 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose the positive effects of Virtual Reality(VR) sports classes and the foundation for VR sports to become the basis of lifelong sports education through the application of physical education classes in sports virtual reality programs are to be provided. For this purpose, the effect of VR sports experience on sports satisfaction, sports immersion, and sports attitude factors was investigated for 281 elementary school students in Busan. Results It was found that VR sports experience had a significant effect on sports satisfaction, sports satisfaction had a significant effect on sports immersion and sports attitude, and sports immersion had a significant effect on sports attitude. The great advantage of sports virtual reality is that sports activities for items that are difficult to deal with in physical education classes and unpopular items will be easily performed. In addition, by using a program that links physical education classes with English and mathematics, physical education will be recognized as a convergence subject by elementary school students, and at the same time, it will become an integrated subject that can acquire fun elements and learning elements at the same time through play or games.

최근 4차 산업혁명에서 주목을 받고 있는 가상현실(VR:Virtual Reality)은 시각, 청각, 촉각 등 인간의 오감을 활용한 상호작용을 통하여 공간적, 물리적 제약 때문에 현실세계에서는 직접 경험하지 못하는 상황을 사용자가 현실과 가상세계의 구분 없이 체험이 가능하여 국방, 의료, 교육 등에 활용이 되며 특히, 가상현실 스포츠나 게임 등의 개발이 활발하다. 본 연구에서는 가상현실 게임, 미디어 등에 손짓을 컴퓨터가 인식하게 할 수 있는 입력장치인 립모션(Leap motion)을 이용하여 VR다트 게임을 제안하고 구현한다. 다트게임은 방향 뿐 아니라 힘과 속도 등의 변수가 중요하며 바로 결과를 알 수 있고 위험하지 않는 장점으로 남녀노소 누구나 즐길 수 있는 VR스포츠게임이다.

This study examines the access index to the development of immersive contents suitable for elementary school users. The findings of this study can be used as a correct development guide for companies participating in the production of virtual reality sports room contents, by providing users with an effective content experience of education and physical exercise based on the immersive content of sports, physical education, and convergence learning linked with various sensor technologies. As for the research method, this study selected content developed based on the standardization guide of the supporting institution. Through research using expert advice, interviews with sports managers, and content experience survey, this study derived a content access standard index of the virtual reality sports room. Finally, the study verified the developed contents through advanced development applying the production standard indicators.

Recently, public interest in virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) has increased. Therefore, computer graphics-related research has been actively conducted. This has included research on virtual space related to human posture implementation. However, such research has focused on general posture in humans. This paper presents a system with reference to the basic posture in sports climbing and the inverse kinematics method for generating the positions and behavior of virtual characteristics in a three-dimensional virtual space. The simulation based on the inverse kinematics method, produced with an inverse kinematics solver and initial pose animation from motion capture, provides realistic and natural movement. We designed a simulation system to generate correct posture and motions similar to those in sports climbing by applying the basic procedure of sports climbing. The simulation system provides help for producing content about sports climbing, such as learning programs for novice climbers and sports climbing games.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the presence experience of virtual reality sports room class affects the intention to participate in sports activities when pleasure and immersion are experienced. For the survey, a total of 300 people, 60 copies each, were sampled for the upper grades of elementary school, and a total of 276 copies of data were used for the study, excluding 24 copies with insincere answers from among the questionnaires. The data processing used in this study was SPSS ver. 24.0 and AMOS ver. 24.0 Statistical program was used to perform confirmatory factor analysis, frequency analysis, Cronbach's α coefficient calculation, correlation analysis, and structural equation model analysis. Through this procedure, the following results were derived. First, the presence experience of the virtual reality sports room class had a positive effect on enjoyment. Second, the relationship between enjoyment and immersion in virtual reality sports room classes had a positive effect. Third, the enjoyment of the virtual reality sports room class had a positive effect on the intention to participate in sports activities. Fourth, the class immersion of the students who participated in the virtual reality sports room had a positive effect on their intention to participate in future sports activities.

This research presented development contents for application of realistic content approach study that can experience T-ball sports used in regular physical education classes at indoor space with screen. The scope of application can be used for ball sports training in virtual reality sports room of elementary and junior high schools. The approach process presents an appropriate approach system for sustainable training education which is to improve T-ball sports training to target users through consultation-based collaboration with sports experts and T-ball leaders, focusing on basic training content of T-ball textbooks. In other words, the training mode was designed to induce immersion in T-ball sports classes and provide natural basic training for students at elementary schools rather than simply experience-based realistic content. The developed training content provided basic attack training according to weekly differentiated curriculum, and the approach process of training mode by difficulty level was presented to allow the user to improve the training by the degree of difficulty. In addition, the match mode approach process that reflects the game rules of T-ball sports was presented. This study can be presented as a reference production case that can be used to improve basic training and physical exercise of ball sports for industries related to development of realistic content.
