Recently, to improve the effectiveness of education to learn from textbooks, immersive 3D environments such as virtual reality(VR) has been widely used for education. In this paper, in order to intuitively present education about content scenarios on changes in the human body according to food intake, we consist an immersive virtual reality environment to express the same life-size organs. The participants in our educational system showed higher results in all items compared to the existing textbook-based education such as immersion, understanding, and quality of education program. Also it was found the importance of interactivity to increase the effectiveness of immersive class.

데스크탑 환경의 멀티미디어 디스플레이 시스템은 고해상도, 대화면의 영상을 제공해 줄 수 있는 반면 제약된 공간에서만 동작하므로 휴대할 수 없는 문체가 있다. PDA, PMP와 모바일 폰과 같은 휴대성을 가지는 멀티미디어 디스플레이 시스템은 해상도가 낮아 사용자에게 충분한 몰입감을 제공 해 주지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 데스크탑 환경에서 동작하는 프로젝션 기반의 증강현실 시스템을 모바일 플랫폼으로 확장한 프로젝션 기반의 휴대형 멀티미디어 디스플레이 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 PDA와 포켓 프로젝터를 결합한 것으로, PDA에서 전 처리된 멀티미디어 영상을 포켓 프로젝터를 이용하여 임의의 모양을 가지는 스크린에 왜곡 없이 영상을 표시해 줄 수 있다. 개발환경은 Window Mobile 5.0 기반의 ARM 플랫폼을 사용하는 PDA를 이용하였고, 시스템의 최적화를 위하여 x86 플랫폼에 최적화된 OpenCV 라이브러리를 모바일용으로 변환하였다. 또한 모바일 플랫폼에서는 부동소수점 연산으로 인한 시스템의 속도저하 문제가 발생하기 때문에 부동소수점 연산을 정수 연산으로 변환함으로써 처리 속도를 개선하였다. 프로젝션 기반의 디스플레이 시스템을 실현하기 위해서 필요한 기술적인 과제들을 모바일 환경에서 직접 처리해 봄으로써 휴대형 프로젝션 기반의 멀티미디어 시스템의 가능성을 제시한다.

As studies on more realistic human-robot interface are being actively carried out, people's interests about telepresence which remotely controls robot and obtains environmental information through video display are increasing. In order to provide natural telepresence services by moving a remote robot, it is required to recognize user's behaviors. The recognition of user movements used in previous telepresence system was difficult and costly to be implemented, limited in its applications to human-robot interaction. In this paper, using the Nintendo's Wii controller getting a lot of attention in these days and infrared LEDs, we propose an immersive user interface that easily recognizes user's position and gaze direction and provides remote video information through HMD.

PC 및 게임 소프트웨어의 급격한 발달로 가상현실 구현에 필요한 그래픽 환경은 성숙단계에 진입하였다. 현재 국내에서 개발되는 게임 소프트웨어는 PC사용자를 겨냥한 제품이 대부분이다. 토요일 휴무제의 도입에 따른 문화 콘텐츠 시장의 확대, 가족이 즐길 수 있는 테마 공원의 성장성 등을 고려할 때 기존의 PC 게임과 차별화 되는 운동감을 포함한 가상현실 게임 제품의 개발이 요망된다. 잘 알려진 6자유도 운동 시뮬레이션 방식인 Stewart 방식은 구현 가격이 고가이고 운동범위가 작아 게임용으로 상용화하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 2대의 AC 서보모터를 이용하여 roll과 pitch의 2자유도만 구현하나, 각 축으로 자유로운 회전이 가능하여 탑승자의 스릴감을 향상시킬 수 있는 저가형 운동의자를 개발하였다. 2 자유도로 회전하는 외부와 차단된 캐빈 내부에는 40인치 스크린과 프로젝터가 설치되어 롤러코스터 게임의 몰입감을 향상시켰다. 롤러코스터 가상현실을 대상으로 운동감을 극대화하기 위한 워시아웃 (washout) 필터의 설계 알고리즘이 제시된다. 탑승자들의 감성 평가를 객관화하기 위한 데이터 베이스 구축방안이 서술된다

In this research we present a novel method which combines and visualizes the design model and the FDM-based simulation result of solidification. Moreover we employ VR displays and visualize stereoscopic images to provide an effective analysis environment. First we reconstruct the solidification simulation result to a rectangular mesh model using a conventional simulation software. Then each point color of the reconstructed model represents a temperature value of its position. Next we map the two models by finding the nearest point of the reconstructed model for each point of the design model and then assign the point color of the design model as that of the reconstructed model. Before this mapping we apply mesh subdivision because the design model is composed of minimum number of points and that makes the point distribution of the design model not uniform compared with the reconstructed model. In this process the original shape is preserved in the manner that points are added to the mesh edge which length is longer than a predefined threshold value. The implemented system visualizes the solidification simulation data on the design model, which allows the user to understand the object geometry precisely. The immersive and realistic working environment constructed with use of VR display can support the user to discover the defect occurrence faster and more effectively.

This study investigates the effectiveness of foreign language learning through diverse treatments in virtual settings, particularly by differentiating virtual environments with three textual enhancement techniques. A 2 × 3 mixed-factorial design was used, treating virtual environments as within-subject factors and textual enhancement techniques as between-subject factors. Participants experienced two videos, each in different virtual learning environments with one of the random textual enhancement techniques. The results showed that the interaction between different virtual environments and textual enhancement techniques had a statistically significant impact on presence among groups. In examining main effects of virtual environments, significant differences were observed in flow and attitude toward pre-post learning. Also, main effects of textual enhancements notably influenced flow, intention to use, learning satisfaction, and learning confidence. This study highlights the potential of Metaverse in foreign language learning, suggesting that learner experiences and effects vary with different virtual environments.

본 논문은 사용자가 가상환경 내에서 가상 물체의 무게를 인지하기 위한 힘을 적용시키는 장치(device)에 관해 연구하였다. 이 장치는 3-DOF를 갖는 장치로 원통형 플라스틱 스틱에 4개의 스트레인 게이지를 부착시켜 사용자가 원하는 방향으로 스틱을 밀거나 당기거나 누르면 스틱의 인장 강도에 따른 변화량을 스트레인 게이지를 통하여 측정되도록 설계하였다. 이 장치의 사용성을 평가하기 위해 무게가 다른 5개의 상자를 현실세계와 가상환경에 위치시킨 후에 피실험자로 하여금 정량적, 정성적인 평가를 하였다 그 결과 본 논문을 통하여 제작한 장치를 가상환경에 응용하였을 때, 사용자로 하여금 가상 물체에 대한 힘을 인지하게 함으로써 가상환경에서 현실감과 몰입감을 효과적으로 중대시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

As with all narrative forms based on media, the narrative method of TV human documentary is closely related to the change of broadcasting environment. In 2017, the world's first terrestrial UHD broadcast was launched in Korea, and in September of that year, KBS broadcasted the UHD special documentary series. , made of UHD capable of ultra-high definition video and immersive audio, showed a narrative approach completely different from the existing TV human documentary. Instead of all-out narration, which was considered an essential element in the TV human documentary, it used the modest first-person narration of the characters, while actively using drones capable of various compositions to express the psychology of the characters in detail and enable viewers' immersion. In addition, the Montage editing technique, an editing method that has not been attempted in TV human documentaries, utilizes the narrative development method of 'showing' as a video without 'explaining' with narration. After , many similar narrative documentaries are broadcast, and the flow and direction of TV human documentaries are changing under UHD broadcasting environment.

This study aims to develop a stereoscopic image authoring tool to effectively produce e-Book content that enhances user's sense of immersion in 3D environments. The proposed authoring tool consists of three core systems; 3D object editing, stereoscopic image, and image media production systems. First, the object editing system arranges and produces diverse objects that constitute virtual 3D spaces to fit the purpose of the content. In this case, commercial graphic authoring tools are utilized to design efficient data structures that can include produced external models. In addition, the material and textures of objects are made to be revisable and editable into the form wanted by the user. Thereafter, a stereoscopic image system will be implemented to produce the generated virtual scenes into stereoscopic images. This study uses the Anaglyph method so that the user can implement and use stereoscopic image scenes more easily. This method include functions to change the color of stereo cameras and control depth scaling. Finally, an image media production system will be implemented that will enable producing the produced stereoscopic images into single images or videos so that they can be effectively utilized in e-Book content.
