With progress in emerging new media technology and associated device, there is growing interest in a new type of contents in the filed of children education. In this research, we developed a edutainment content for enhancing sociability and visual perception of children exploiting kinect. Recreating what is visually perceived with physical movement is adopted to develop visual perception. It is also designed such that one's sociability can be enhanced through experiencing natural physical contact and collaboration while interacting with the developed content. The prototype of the content was created through development of character to boost interest, a short animation for storytelling, and interactive programming. In the second pilot test which was done with the content improved through the first pilot test, it was observed that children easily played with it and actively participated in experiencing it. From this observation, it is expected that the developed content may work as a promising edutainment content which fosters children to enhance visual perception and sociability through natural interaction.

좁은 국토와 한정된 자원, 주변 국가와의 외래 관광객 유치 경쟁의 심화 등의 이유로 관광산업의 지속적인 발전이 힘들다는 전망이 대두되고 있다. 따라서 날로 다양해지는 관광소비자의 욕구를 정확하게 분석하고, 국내외 관광시장의 흐름을 파악해야 하며, 이러한 관점에서 분석한 결과, 국내 관광지에는 관광객을 유혹할만한 정보를 얻기 힘들고, 이미 통용되고 있는 관광정보 또한 기본적이고 단순한 정보에 지나지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 이에 본 연구는 이야기가 있는 관광지의 정보를 제공하여 보다 흥미 있는 관광정보를 제공하고, 여행자 개개인의 적극적 참여를 유도하기 위해 콘텐츠에 이야기, 애니메이션 및 게임을 제공하고, 주변상점과의 제휴를 통해 상호작용이 가능한 콘텐츠를 개발하였다. 또한 모바일 기기를 기반으로 하여 칼라코드, SMS등의 이용으로 보다 흥미롭고 사용이 편리한 콘텐츠를 개발하고자 노력하였으며, 캐릭터를 개발하여 과학적인 마케팅 전략의 수립으로 지속적인 제주관광발전을 도모하고자 하였다.

VR is a dynamic image simulation technology with very high information density. Among them, spatial depth, temporality, and realism bring an unprecedented sense of immersion to the experience. However, due to its high information density, the information contained in it is very easy to be manipulated, creating an illusion of objectivity. Users need guidance to help them interpret the high density of dynamic image information. Just like setting up navigation interfaces and interactivity in games, interactivity in virtual reality is a way to interpret virtual content. At present, domestic research on VR content is mainly focused on technology exploration and visual aesthetic experience. However, there is still a lack of research on interactive storytelling design, which is an important part of VR content creation. In order to explore a better interactive storytelling model in virtual reality content, this paper analyzes the interactive storytelling features of the VR animated version of <Wolves in the walls> through the methods of literature review and case study. We find that the following rules can be followed when creating VR content: 1. the VR environment should fully utilize the advantages of free movement for users, and users should not be viewed as mere observers. The user's sense of presence should be fully considered when designing interaction modules. Break down the "fourth wall" to encourage audience interaction in the virtual reality environment, and make the hot media of VR "cool". 2.Provide developer-driven narrative in the early stages of the work so that users are not confused about the ambiguous world situation when they first enter a virtual environment with a high degree of freedom. 1.Unlike some games that guide users through text, you can guide them through a more natural interactive approach that adds natural dialog between the user and story characters (NPC). Also, since gaze guidance is an important part of story progression, you should set up spatial scene user gaze guidance elements within it. For example, you can provide eye-following cues, motion cues, language cues, and more. By analyzing the interactive storytelling features and innovations of the VR animation <Wolves in the walls>, I hope to summarize the main elements of interactive storytelling from its content. Based on this, I hope to explore how to better showcase interactive storytelling in virtual reality content and provide thoughts on future VR content creation.
