가상환경시스템은 매우 현실감 있는 정보를 제공할 수 있다는 점에서 산업, 의료, 교육훈련 등에 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 아직 많은 가상환경 시스템에서 부정적 요인으로 멀미나 시각피로로 대표되는 cybersickness 증세를 수반하고 있어 그 사용과 확산에 제약이 되고 있다. 한편 cybersickness 의 한 현상으로 볼 수 있는 신체동요도 이에 대한 객관적 지표로서의 가능성이 연구되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서도 가상환경시스템을 피실험자들에게 체험하게 하고 체험 전후의 신체동요으 변화를 측정평가 하였다. 측정 결과 가상환경 체험 후 약간의 신체 동요의 경향이 나타났으나 통계적으로 유의할만한 정도의 차이는 보이지 못했다. 특히 본 연구에서 신체동요의 변인으로 가정했던 Motion의 유무와 Feedback 의 유무에 대한 영향 분석 결과에서도 좌우 방향에 대한 Motion 유무만 차이를 보였을 뿐이었다. 신체동요는 비교적 간단히 객관적으로 cybersickness의 일면을 평가할 수 있는 지표로 후속 연구가 계속 요청되고 있다.

Recently, virtual environment systems are used in various application fields such as industry, medicine, and training and education. However, the negative effect, cybersickness including nausea, visual fatigue, and disorientation, could be happened while using VR systems. It prevents VR system from spreading much more. To control the cybersickness, first of all, the objective measurement method should be established. As one of alternative methods, the postural instability could be a measure of cybersickness. In this study, 45 participants' postural sway before and after experiencing a H driving simulator was measured by using a force platform. Especially, we examined if two factors, motion and feedback, could affect on the postural instability The results showed the postural instability slightly increased after experiencing the VR driving simulator. For the factors, the providing of motion synchronized to visual display showed statistical significant decrease in postural sway along lateral side. To check the effectiveness of postural instability as a cybersickness measure, further studies are needed.

본 논문은 최신 가상현실 미디어 기술동향과 다양한 분야에서 시도해 온 VR 멀미저감 방안을 리뷰하여, 가상현실 사용자의 인지적 수용성을 높이는 방안에 대해 논의하였다. 이를 통해 최신 미디어 기술의 사용자 가치제안 방식을 분석하고 Social VR 플랫폼의 인지적 수용성을 개선하는 효율적 방안을 제안하였다. 생체신호 모니터링, VR 콘텐츠 적합도 분석, 멀미 메커니즘 조절, 신체동요측정 기반 멀미예측 등 다양한 멀미저감 방식 중 개발 비용과 사용자 수용성 측면에서 가장 효율적인 신체동요측정 기반 멀미예측 기술의 사전테스트 결과를 소개하고 적용 방안을 구체화하였다. 가상현실 체험 전 미세한 신체동요가 많은 사용자일수록 VR 멀미 민감도가 크게 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 개인의 멀미민감도를 반영하는 본 측정 결과를 다양한 가상현실 환경에서 테스트하고 개인특성에 따른 VR 멀미 데이터베이스를 구축한다면 AI 기반의 멀미 예측기술을 구현하는데 크게 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

In this study, we reviewed recent trends for enhancing human cognitive accessibility to social VR platform. We also proposed a practical method to predict VR sickness and improve the cognitive accessibility. In doing so, we investigated subtle changes in human body sway unconsciously made before, during, and after being exposed to extreme VR experience. The scientific assumption that VR sickness would be correlated with the subtle changes in body sway was validated. We found that participants who showed sensitive changes in the body sway before VR experience, felt more severe VR sickness than others. The findings can be practically applied in predicting susceptibility to VR sickness prior to VR experiences.

The purpose of this research is to compare and analyze the change that must be applied to the evaluation of the slipperiness of an inclined floor, when considering its use by the physically handicapped and by the able-bodied. For this study, a simulator that can reproduce the characteristics of the body sway of a physically handicapped person was developed through a comparative experiment between able-bodied people and people with hemiplegia. In addition, as cale for the evaluation of the slipperiness of flat floors and inclined floors was composed by the sensory test result targeting physically handicapped persons (able-bodied persons wore the body sway for the handicapped and ageing in the experiment) and the able-bodied. In terms of the evaluation of the slipperiness of an inclined floor, it was evaluated that it is safe when the C.S.R' (Coefficient of Slip Resistance) of a healthy person is over 0.30, while it was evaluated that it is dangerous when the C.S.R' of a physically handicapped person is over $0.45{\sim}0.50$. Concerning this difference, it is judged that the reason for this difference is that the walking mechanism differs between an able-bodied person and a physically handicapped person.

본 연구에서는 회전 자극기를 이용하여 성별에 따른 회전 평형감각 특성을 분석하였다. 피검자는 정상성인 남녀 각각 10명에 대해, 두부회전과 rotatory chair test(RCT)에 의한 회전자극 전과 후의 변화정도를 살펴보았고, COP, Flicker Test, 적외선 카메라를 이용한 체열 측정 등을 통해 전정자극 특성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 COP를 통한 신체동요도 측정 결과 회전자극 제시 후 두부회전의 경우 총 누적거리가 1.47배, RCT의 경우 1.78배까지 증가했고, 플리커 치는 여성(8.6%)이 남성(5%)보다 높게 나타났고, 여성이 남성보다 회전자극에 민감함을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 남녀 모두 회전 자극 후 눈 주위의 온도상승이 미소하게 일어남을 알 수 있었다.

In this writing, issued beauty as Hyangga(향가) creative motivation into the focus, its expression modality is discussed and then an aesthetic sense of Sil-la is considered. For its research, in "Samkukyusa"("삼국유사") some Hyangga - , , , - that have phraseologies for beauty meaning are choose for the discuss. First, beauty as Hyangga(향가) creative motivation were expressed by above methods. 1. Beauty as desires for acquisition and confirmation in 2. Beauty that the subject (the writer) looked upon in 3. Beauty that felt pathetic for declining in 4. Beauty that arouse from disillusion in Second, an aesthetic sense of Sil-La in "Samkukyusa"("삼국유사") showed as the above. 1. Physical beauty that Sil-La were attracted by 2. Beauty as the glorified object that Sil-La were attracted by 3. Beauty as the virtue notion that Sil- La were attracted by In consequence, it is discussed that Sil-La had an aesthetic sense as the perfect virtue united the transcendence and the real.

The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of balance control in virtual moving surround stimulation using head mount display (HMD) device and force platform in patients with brain injury. Fifteen patients with stroke (mean age 54.47 yrs) and fifteen healthy normal persons participated. COP parameters were obtained total path distance, frequency of anterior-posterior and medial-lateral component by FFT analysis, weight-spectrum analysis in the two different conditions; (1) during comfortable standing with opened or closed eyes, (2) during virtual moving surround stimulation delivered using HMD with four different moving pattern. Moving patterns consisted of close-far, superior-inferior lilting (pitch) , right-left tilting (roll) and horizontal rotation (yaw) movement. In all parameters, the test-retest reliability was high. Also, the construct validity of virtual moving surround stimulation was excellent (p＜0.05). A posturographic balance assessment system equiped with virtual moving surround stimulation using HMD is considered clinically useful in evaluation of balance control in patients with brain injury.
