최근, 메타버스 서비스를 통해 시간적, 공간적 제약에서 벗어나 원격지와 의사 소통을 자연스럽게 진행하는데 많이 사용하고 있다. 이러한 메타버스 콘텐츠 제작을 위해서는 실제 공간의 데이터를 기반으로 3D 모델을 복원하고, 합성할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 다수의 카메라를 이용한 연속된 이미지를 기반으로 3D 생성 복원 모델을 제작하고, 복원된 3D 모델을 보정할 수 있는 기법을 제시한다. 이를 위해 오프라인으로 다중 카메라 셋업을 수행하고, 여러 각도에서 얻어진 이미지를 통해 만들어진 3D 모델에 대해 오류를 분석한 뒤 이미지 프레임 간의 매칭 기법으로 보정을 수행 하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 움직이는 3D 물체 복원 방법을 통해 문화, 관광, 의료 등 다양한 서비스 분야에 3D 복원 데이터를 활용할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

Purpose. Medical tourism is recently becoming a new industry with great growth potential. The South Korean government is shifting medical tourism from simple cultural tourism to a high value-added industry with a new paradigm. Methods. The government has been providing positive support and marketing policies since the introduction of the article concerning foreign patient attraction to the medical law in 2009, and various types of medical institutions around the country has participated actively in medical tourism by themselves or in cooperation of government bodies and made increasingly greater performance. Results. This study obtained the following results. The medical institutions in Korea have been making efforts to see more development and profitability in diverse ways, including medical tourism for foreign patients and the advance of the Korean medical institutions into foreign markets. However, many local governing bodies and medical institutions participating in medical tourism around the country have primarily focused on examination and treatment on the basis of foreign patients' visit to South Korea and rarely built a medical network with other countries directly for medical tourism. This study presents a case of building a local medical network and a network for international medical tourism successfully on the basis of the local medical association, CMP, which has been formed naturally in Busan. The success factors for CMP included 1) enthusiasm of the official in charge; 2) the medical level, the service level, and open-mindedness of participant medical institutions; 3) cost efficiency due to executive office management with no costs, no conflicts, and constant partnership; 4) security of non-competitive expertise for participants; 5) local factors of CMP; 6) participation of good agencies; 7) reinforcement of participation networks; and 8) post facto management and local doctor management. Conclusions. Its positive effects included patient introduction and greater profitability on an internal basis as well as construction of the collaboration system with the institutions related to medical tourism and confidence. However, there are some limitations: it is still difficult to predict performance due to the short period of their activities, and it is necessary to continue to observe their constant activities since a single medical association was involved.

최근 들어 감성기술은 제조업(제품), 서비스업(문화, 관광, 의료, 교육, 광고) 등 많은 분야에서 적용이 확대되고 있으며 차세대 유망기술로 등장하고 있다. 또한 문화는 게임, 전시, 공연, 스포츠, 관광, 디자인, 에듀테인먼트, 콘텐츠 유통 등 다양한 콘텐츠산업분야에 접목되어 기존산업의 고부가가치화에 기여하고 있다. 감성 기술을 이용한 문화의 콘텐츠산업 접목은 콘텐츠 기획-제작-유통-마케팅 등 프로세스 전반의 혁신을 유도함으로써 미래 국가 성장동력의 견인차 역할을 하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 감성기술의 콘텐츠 적용 사례 조사와 비즈니스 성공사례 분석을 통해 향후 콘텐츠산업의 부가가치를 향상시키기 위한 감성콘텐츠 개발 방향을 모색하는 것이다. 이를 위해 우선 감성, 감성공학, 감성과학, 감성기술, 감성콘텐츠 등에 대한 정의와 분류를 정교화하였다. 또한 CT R&D 6개 분야 중에서 감성기술을 적용하여 성공적인 효과를 창출하고 있는 다양한 콘텐츠에 대한 국내외 사례를 심층 분석하였다. 성공사례 분석을 통해 도출한 시사점을 바탕으로 개인 맞춤형 컨시어지 서비스를 제공하는 콘텐츠, 인간의 수행능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 콘텐츠, 인간의 정서조절이 가능한 콘텐츠를 개발함으로써 한류문화를 세계적으로 소개할 수 있는 융합형 콘텐츠 개발이 필요하다고 제안하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 감성기술의 콘텐츠산업 접목방안을 모색하는 데에 필요한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있으리라 기대한다.

우리나라는 세계에서 유례를 찾아보기 어려운 빠른 속도로 저출산과 더불어 고령화가 진행되어 가고 있다. 인구구조도 피라미드형 구조였으나, 최근에는 역피라미드형 구조가 되어감에 따라 생산인구 문제를 열악하게 만드는 요인으로 작용하고 있다. 노인일자리사업은 이러한 산업구조 역행의 일부를 대체하는 측면도 있지만, 노인의 경제적 측면과 신체적 측면 그리고 사회통합의 측면에서도 효과적인 지원체계가 마련되어져야 한다. 또한 다양한 일자리 창출 및 보급을 위한 노력도 함께 이루어져야 한다. 문화, 복지, 의료, 관광, 체험 등 서비스 분야에서 취약한 부분을 발굴하여 은퇴 전 가지고 있었던 기술과 경험이 활용될 수 있는 양질의 일자리가 만들어 지도록 해야 한다. 따라서 이 연구는 노인일자리사업의 효율화 방안을 위한 이론적 기초를 제공하였다는데 그 의의가 있다.

The medical tourism industry, a convergence of medical services and tourism, has been getting more and more popularity as a new value-added industry in the 21st century. Accordingly, the number of professional workers within this industry has been increasing, and the role of educational institutions to cultivate well-equipped human resources has also become critical. However, compared to practically activated medical tourism-related education programs, studies investigating the effectiveness of these education programs are relatively rare. Therefore, this study attempts to examine the effect of five dimensions of medical tourism education service quality (i.e., tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy) on learners' education satisfaction and transfer of education training. In addition, the moderating roles of national relations as well as organizational characteristics (i.e., transfer climate and support of supervisors and colleagues) in the relationship between education satisfaction and transfer of education training are further verified. The results of the structural equation model (SEM) using 151 samples from respondents with experience in completing medical tourism education programs reveal that tangibles, reliability, and assurance are found to have a significant impact on education satisfaction, which in turn leads to a high level of transfer of education training. Moreover, it is found that national relations and support of supervisors and colleagues play a moderating role. This study would provide guidelines for improving the efficiency of educational institutions, creating outcomes for learners' affiliated firms (e.g., hospitals), and promoting medical tourism at the national level from the perspective of medical tourism education.

1. Objective : This study aims to evaluate the medical tourism structures in countries with prosperous medical tourism industry such as Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and India in order ro propose optimal strategies that can promote the medical tourism in Korea. 2. Methods : All pertinent literature concerning medical tourism directly and indirectly were assessed, and reviews of medical tourism strategies found in various countries were evaluated. 3. Results : Evaluation of related literature reveals that medical tourism is a recent burgeoning industry that has grown In market size considerably in the last five to ten years. Also, it shows that oriental medicine is a highly likely candidate amidst the various medical fields for attraction foreign patients. 4. Conclusion : The Korean government should support and install appropriate legal and administrative bodies in order to attract medical tourists; Korea-specific medical tourism programs (ie. traditional Korean medicine package tours) should be developed in order to attract medical tourists from the western world and the middle-east. In addition, low-price policy of medical tourism is not a proper strategies for the competition against advanced medical tourism destinations such as Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and India. Differentiated medical tourism package such as oriental medical tourism program rather than provision of low-price policy seems to be more effective strategy for the medical tourism in Korea. Future studies on strategies for promoting medical tourism should focus on how foreigners recognize traditional Korean medicine, what diagnostic approach might be appealing to them and how the legal system concerning the medical procedures may be altered and modified.
