This study focused on the usability and the difference between VR and AR technology in the FEM/CFD simulation environments. First, this paper explains the current status and prospect of the VR/AR technology and conducted a case study on the VR and AR service in the FEM/CFD simulation environments. In addition, we made the evaluation strategies for usability by a review of previous research. And then, after Interviewers participants who use of simulation at a specific site C to we investigated the usability of the VR and AR service based on the mobile device in the FEM/CFD simulation environments. The result of this study is look forward to be used as a design service to form a VR and AR service in the future.

In this paper, we propose an improved method of plane tracking in developing AR games for smartphones using magnetic field sensor. The previous method based on ARCore is a VIO method using a mixture of SLAM and IMU of smartphones. The disadvantages of accelerometers and gyroscopes in IMUs cause errors in tracking the plane. We propose an improved method of planar tracking by adding the magnetic field sensor as well as the existing IMU sensors. Experimental results shows that our method reduces the error of the smartphone posture estimation.

증강현실(AR)이란, 현실의 이미지나 배경에 3차원 가상 이미지를 입혀 실시간으로 출력되는 컴퓨터 그래픽 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 AR 서비스를 이용한 여행 기록 애플리케이션을 제안한다. 현재 제공되는 서비스에서는 장소에 대해 제공하는 정보가 매우 한정적이다. 따라서 공유 커뮤니티를 형성할 수 있도록 하여 다양한 정보를 전달하고 직접적인 시각 자료를 제공받을 수 있는 애플리케이션이 필요하다고 생각하여 기획하게 되었다. ReactNative와 SpringBoot를 사용하며, MySQL을 이용하여 데이터를 저장한다. Google Map API를 활용하여 사용자가 기록하고자 하는 장소에 대한 위도와 경도 정보를 받을 수 있도록 하며, AR 기능은 Unity로 구현하였다. AR을 포함한 혼합 현실 서비스를 제공하여 사용자들이 본인의 경험에만 의존하는 것이 아닌 풍부한 몰입력과 현장감을 통해 보다 가시적이고 생생한 다이어리 기록을 만들 수 있다.

In this paper we introduced Augmented Reality (AR) on Android platform for ubiquitous learning (u-learning). Android is breaking new ground for mobile computing and open technologies. Android is versatile as it is not limited only to mobile phones, but it can be installed on various devices. Android gives developers the opportunity to leverage their development skills, while also building an exciting and active community. Augmented Reality (AR) is going to be the future of most apps; all it takes is a decent processor, a camera, a compass and a GPS, all of which are becoming increasingly common on smart phones. Through AR we can have educational tools that provide individuals with total flexibility to receive, send, and review training and detailed product information through an increasingly ubiquitous web-enabled communication device. In this paper, we proposed Augmented Reality for Species Identification using Android Smartphone with augmented reality in species determination. This study is appropriate in the field of Biology. This is useful in outdoor experimental activities of the students. Like for example while they are visiting the zoo, botanical garden and etc.

With the recent growth of the companion animal market, various social issues related to companion animals have also come to the forefront. Notable problems include incidents of dog bites, the challenge of managing abandoned companion animals, euthanasia, animal abuse, and more. As potential solutions, a variety of training programs such as companion animal-focused broadcasts and educational apps are being offered. However, these options might not be very effective for novice caretakers who are uncertain about what to prioritize in training. While training apps that are relatively easy to access have been widely distributed, apps that allow users to directly engage in training and learn through hands-on experience are still insufficient. In this paper, we propose a more efficient AR-based mobile app for companion animal training, utilizing the Unity engine. The results of usability evaluations indicated increased user engagement due to the inclusion of elements that were previously absent. Moreover, training immersion was enhanced, leading to improved learning outcomes. With further development and subsequent verification and production, we anticipate that this app could become an effective training tool for novice caretakers planning to adopt companion animals, as well as for experienced caretakers.

Vision-based Human computer interaction is an emerging field of science and industry to provide natural way to communicate with human and computer. Especially, recent increasing demands for mobile augmented reality require the development of efficient interactive technologies between the augmented virtual object and users. This paper presents a novel approach to construct marker-less mobile augmented reality object and control the object. Replacing a traditional market, the human hand interface is used for marker-less mobile augmented reality system. In order to implement the marker-less mobile augmented system in the limited resources of mobile device compared with the desktop environments, we proposed a method to extract an optimal hand region which plays a role of the marker and augment object in a realtime fashion by using the camera attached on mobile device. The optimal hand region detection can be composed of detecting hand region with YCbCr skin color model and extracting the optimal rectangle region with Rotating Calipers Algorithm. The extracted optimal rectangle region takes a role of traditional marker. The proposed method resolved the problem of missing the track of fingertips when the hand is rotated or occluded in the hand marker system. From the experiment, we can prove that the proposed framework can effectively construct and control the augmented virtual object in the mobile environments.

Recently, interest in metaverse, which creates new value in the real world, has increased. In order to make it easy to experience such a metaverse, we have developed an experiential metaverse AR game in which users take the lead in exploring the environment and enjoying content based on landmarks. Important features of the metaverse include connectivity with the real world, interactivity, and digital currency. The game seeks to extend daily life through AR and satisfies interaction through real-time chat and team competition. Finally, digital currency is built through a store system. It is implemented as a mobile game and can be accessed at any time if there is a smartphone, increasing accessibility.

To study how digital content can be effectively developed and transformed in a post-COVID world in which the normal operations of museums have been disrupted, this paper analyzes the rapid development and limitations of VR exhibitions and proposes, as an alternative, the development of AR exhibitions. Studying VR/AR exhibitions that ran before and after COVID-19, this paper finds that VR, on the one hand, translates physical objects into digital video, which lacks aesthetic depth, and encounters operational problems originated by devices. By using mobile devices that are widely distributed and convenient to use, AR exhibitions can, on the other hand, be divided into three types: "museum-specific exhibitions" can present digital content in a specific indoor space, while "place-specific exhibitions" can be used in open outdoor spaces. The "non-place-specific exhibitions", can, as third type, combine digital content with printed material sent by postal mail. Among these three types, the specific/unspecified place type shows the highest "uncontact effect," which can suggest the best direction for effective museum content development in the pandemic era.

프로젝션 기반의 증강현실(AR, augmented reality) 시스템이란, 고화질의 가상 정보를 프로젝터를 통하여 정해진 공간에 정확하게 표시해 주는 시스템을 말한다. 대부분의 증강현실 시스템은 사용자의 몰입감을 높이기 위해 고화질, 대 화면을 제공하기 위한 디스플레이 장치를 사용하며, 영상처리의 복잡도에 따른 고성능의 프로세스 장치를 요구하기 때문에 데스크탑 환경에서 이루어졌다. 그러나, 데스크탑 환경에서의 증강현실 시스템은 휴대가 불편하다는 단점을 가진다. 최근 프로젝터의 소형화와 모바일 프로세서의 성능 향상은 휴대가 편리한 모바일 증강현실 시스템의 등장을 가능하게 하였다. 그러나, 모바일 증강현실 시스템은 작은 디스플레이를 이용하여 영상 정보를 표시해 주기 때문에 높은 해상도를 지원할 수 없으며, 사용자의 몰입감을 감소시킨다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 증강현실 시스템의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 PDA와 소형 프로젝터를 결합하여 프로젝션 기반의 휴대용 멀티미디어 플레이어($PMP^2$ : Portable Multimedia Player using Projection-Based augmented reality)라는 모바일 증강현실 시스템을 제안한다. $PMP^2$는 모바일 프로세서의 대표격이라 할 수 있는 PDA와 휴대용 소형 프로젝터를 이용함으로써 고화질, 대화면의 증강현실 영상을 다수의 사용자가 원하는 장소와 시간에 즐길 수 있도록 해 준다. $PMP^2$는 스크린의 기하 및 컬러에 따른 왜곡을 보상해 줌으로써, 특정한 스크린 없이도 언제 어디서나 사용자에게 정확한 영상을 제공해 준다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 시나리오에 대해 $PMP^2$의 유용성을 검증함으로써 모바일 환경에서의 프로젝션 기반의 증강 현실 시스템의 활용 가능성을 제시한다.
