In this paper, we propose haptic interfaces based on force feedback to provide a physical painting experience to virtual reality users. Through this system, the user can create surface-based painting holding a haptic stylus, while utilizing both visual feedback from the worn HMD and haptic feedback during painting. In particular, the haptic interfaces simulate the physical interaction between painting brush and painting, which can help to improve the spatial perception of users and compensate for visual feedback. This can reduce laborious drawing works to repeatedly paint strokes and therefore yield a better painting performance. As a result, users can experience more effective and realistic VR painting with this system.

본 연구에서는 가상증강현실과 미술의 연계로 가상현실의 세계에서 3D 펜과 같이 그림을 그릴 수 있는 시스템을 기획하고자 한다. 가상의 3D 펜과 HMD, Leap Motion 기기를 이용하여, VR공간의 가상 캔버스에 자신만의 그림 세계를 만들고, 실시간으로 여러 명의 사용자들과 연동하여 함께 그림을 그리고, 저장, 공유할 수 있도록 한다. 여럿이 가상현실 공간을 돌아다닐 수 있기 때문에 협동하여 작품을 만들 수 있는 교육용으로도 사용할 수 있다. 또한 입체적인 것을 설명할 때 중요한 부분을 공간페인팅을 함으로써 2D의 한계를 넘어설 수 있다. 이 시스템은 창의적으로 무언가를 그려내는 것을 3D로 표현하기 때문에 더욱 풍부한 작품이 나올 수 있고 창의력 향상에 도움이 될 것이다.

가속화되는 인구 감소와 COVID-19로 인하여 지방 도시 쇠퇴 현상이 심화되고 있다. 한편, 지역 활성화의 핵심 전략이자 수단이 되는 관광 산업은 트렌드에 맞는 새로운 컨텐츠가 부족하여 어려움을 겪고 있다[1]. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결해보고자 가상현실(VR)과 증강현실(AR) 기술을 적용한 새로운 관광 컨텐츠를 제안한다. 실제 도시를 3D 모델링 한 배경과 3D 페인팅 기능을 통해 작품 만들기 서비스를 구현하였고, GPS 기능과 AR 카메라를 통해 작품 관람하기 서비스를 구현하였다. 이 프로그램은 메타버스 기술을 적용한 관광 컨텐츠의 사례로써 향후 지방 도시 활성화에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

The augmented reality is a technology which expresses the information hardly obtained in the real world by synthesizing virtual objects in the real world. This study uses IR LED marker to obtain the coordination of real world for registration of virtual objects. Since the IR LED marker is inserted in target object thus it has properties of invisible markers. To realize the augmented reality, the existence of marker can be observed in camera input image. Therefore, this paper provides a method to give the properties of perfect invisible marker by using inpainting technology when realizing IR LED marker.

본 논문은 방송의 가상스튜디오 제작 환경에서 많이 사용되는 회전 또는 스크롤 메뉴를 진행자가 직접 휠(회전보드)을 움직여, 진행자와 그래픽과의 자연스러운 상호작용이 가능한 인터랙티브 가상현실 방송 제작 어플리케이션을 제안한다. 이를 위해, 우리는 물리적인 휠의 움직임을 인지할 수 있도록 관성측정장치(IMU: Inertial Measurement Unit)를 사용하였으며, IMU 센서가 부착된 휠을 크로마키로 처리하기 위해 푸른색의 페인팅된 물리적인 휠을 사용하였다. 본 어플리케이션을 통해서 가상스튜디오의 연기자는 물리적인 휠의 움직임을 느끼면서 휠을 회전시킴으로써 별도의 연습이나 훈련 없이도 직관적으로 회전하는 여러 타입의 가상 그래픽 메뉴를 제어할 수 있다. 우리는 상하 스크롤, 원형 회전, 스크롤 연동형 메뉴 어플리케이션들을 개발하였으며, 이것을 방송에 적용하여, 연기자와 휠에 연동한 그래픽과의 인터랙션이 자연스럽게 합성됨을 확인하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to explain the recipient's psychology, which results from the operation of media, from the perspective of the fluctuation between immersion and contemplation. Media allow to perceive and speculate about specific objects or meanings. In addition, the media perform the function of expanding or changing the objects of perception and thought. McLuhan or Luhmann's media theory emphasized this function of changing the state of perception by inducing a contemplative attitude. This notion is exemplified by interpretation of the visual media history. In this paper, the cases of film and computer game are discussed. In particular, it is considered that VR media causing strong immersion have also developed in a way that allows recipients to contemplate an virtually constructed reality. The commercialization of Tilt Brush and the experimentation of VR painting artwork are the examples for this dual development.

본 논문에서는 한국전자통신연구원 가상현실연구센터에서 개발한 탁상형 디지털 편집 시스템의 시제품인 "솔거"를 소개한다. 솔거는 PC 환경에서 MPEG2 데이터들을 처리하고 편집하는 통합형 비선형 편집기로, Directshow 기반의 서브모듈(sub-module)로 개발된 여러 필터들을 기반으로 다양한 시각/음향효과 처리를 제공한다. 이외에도 자유로운 모션 벡터 방향을 줄 수 있는 타이틀링 툴과 정지 영상을 편집할 수 있는 페인팅 툴을 갖추고 있다. 솔거의 특징은 시스템의 구성 가격을 낮추기 위하여 하드웨어 부가 장치 없이 모든 서브모듈을 소프트웨어만으로 구성하였으며 Directshow 기반의 필터개발로 시스템의 확장성과 이식성을 높였다. 이식성을 높였다.

The platform concept has been used for business operations in various forms: product platforms, transaction platforms and industry platforms. All these platforms have common characteristics of having 'core' that is reused frequently and 'peripherals' that are less reusable and changed often. Companies use platforms to enable efficient development and creation of product family, transactions and innovation. These platforms provide new opportunities for many small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) by bringing changes to traditional industrial structures focused on the products rather than platforms. The service robotics industry in South Korea is mainly composed of technology-intensive SMEs due to its small market size. Although these SMEs succeed in developing technologies, they have difficulties creating and expanding markets to sell products. Thus, this study addresses the characteristics and problems of the South Korean service robotics industry and analyses how ROBOPRINT, one of the SMEs in the service robotics industry, successfully creates and continuously expands the service robot market by adopting platform concept. The results indicate that ROBOPRINT has been applying two types of platforms: product and transaction platforms. First, ROBOPRINT created art robots that were apartment mural service robots. Rather than selling art robots, the company developed various robots such as painting robots, building exterior wall-cleaning robots by reusing the core technology of the robots. The company also developed various robots according to the buyers request. In addition, the company used the robots to directly provide apartment mural services for customers. This mural service has been extended into various areas, not only in apartments but also in soundproof walls, underground passages, and retaining walls. Besides, ROBOPRINT added new services continuously by developing technologies such as virtual reality. Second, ROBOPRINT mediated mural service buyers and mural designers. This platform reduced buyers' workload, which necessitates requesting mural services to ROBOPRINT and searching for mural designers. For designers, this opened up new opportunities to participate in the mural business. The platform attracted both mural buyers and designers who were scattered before. Finally, ROBOPRINT seeks to expand the platform's scope to outside company. To share internally reused ROBOPRINT's technology with other companies, the company participated in Daegu city's 'New Technology Platform Industry'. Furthermore, ROBOPRINT is trying to share the service platform by leasing robots to other companies. This allows external agents to develop technologies and provide services by reusing resources from ROBOPRINT. This study contributes to existing theories by showing that SMEs continuously create and expand markets by building various platforms. Moreover, it provides useful implications for practitioners by describing the firm's specific platform-building strategy.
