본 논문에서는 감각형 객체를 도입한 새로운 햅틱 지원 증강 현실 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 카메라 또는 증강용 마커가 이동할 경우 발생하는 카메라-햅틱 간 캘리브레이션 문제를 해결하여, 햅틱 장비의 좌표계를 증강 객체의 좌표계로 강건하게 변환시킨다. 사용자의 간섭없는 캘리브레이션을 위해, 햅틱 좌표계와 증강 좌표계간의 캘리브레이션은 Hand-Eye방법으로 카메라 이동시 자동으로 수행된다. 또한, 감각형 객체 이동시 증강의 안정성을 높히기 위해 본 논문에서는 칼만 필터 (Kalman filter)를 적용한다. 사용자는 감각형 객체에 증강된 가상 모델을 손에 쥔채로, 햅틱 큐의 끝 부분을 움직여 가상 객체를 조작하고, 동시에 역감을 느끼게 된다. 실험에서는 시스템의 유용성을 보이기 위해, 증강용 감각형 객체, 상호작용 및 햅틱 피드백용 PHANToM, 그리고 디스플레이용 3차원 모니터로 구성된 MP3 조작 시스템을 구현하였다. 제안된 햅틱 지원 증강 현실 시스템은 역감과 증강 현실이 필요한 디자인 시스템이나, 교육 및 엔터테인먼트 응용 등에 접목되어 쓰일 수 있다.

Petroglyphs is an essential part of the worldwide cultural heritage since it plays a key role for the comprehension of prehistoric communities previous to writing. nowadays 3D data are a critical component to permanently record the form of important cultural heritage so that they might be passed down to future generations. Recent 3D scanning technologies allow the generation of very realistic 3D model that can be used for multimedia museum exhibitions to attract the users into the 3D world. In this paper, we develop the 3D petroglyph VR contents based on a novel gesture recognition method. The proposed gesture recognition method can recognizes the movements of the user using 3D depth sensor by comparing with the pre-defined movements. Also this paper presents new approaches for 3D petroglyphs data recording using 3D scanning technology as accurate and non-destructive tools.

Recently, research and development on immersive virtual reality(VR) technology to provide a realistic experience is being widely conducted. To provide realistic experience in immersive virtual reality for VR participants, virtual environments should consist of high-realistic environments using 3D reconstruction. In this paper, to acquire 3D information in real space using multiple cameras in the reconstruction process, we propose a novel method of optimal camera placement for accurate reconstruction to minimize distortion of 3D information. Through our approach in this paper, real 3D information can obtain with minimized errors during environment reconstruction, and it is possible to provide a more immersive experience with the created virtual environment.

건설공사 프로젝트는 기획, 설계, 시공, 운영 및 유지관리 등 각 단계의 다양한 참여 주제에 의해 프로젝트가 진행되고 각 분야 간 원활한 의사소통을 통한 협업으로 일을 진행해 나간다. 그러나 각 단계별 커뮤니케이션이 원활히 이뤄지기가 힘들며, 이러한 단계별 분절의 가장 큰 이유 중 하나가 실제적 결과물은 3차원 기반인 것에 비해, 그 과정이 2차원 CAD 시스템에 의존하는 결과와 과정의 격차 때문이다. 그로 인해 각 관련 분야에서 발생되는 정보의 불확실성, 부정확성, 표현의 애매모함 등으로 인해 재작업 및 불필요한 작업이 빈번히 발생하여 전체적인 공정의 지연 및 비용의 문제, 결과물의 품질에 대한 문제가 발생하고 있다. 또한 도면에서의 한계점인 거리감, 공간감 등 실제 사람이 느끼는 Scale감을 알 수 없어 공간에 대한 이해도가 떨어지는 한계점을 극복하지 못하고 있으며 1인칭 작업운영 방식으로 인하여 협업 설계과정에서 원활한 팀워크를 유도 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 협업설계 과정에서 기본설계 단계를 지원하는 설계 도구로서 건축모델의 단순 시각화에서 벗어나 가상공간에서 몰입형 VR 시뮬레이션을 구현하기 위하여 프로토타입 응용을 개발 하였고, 이것을 "Digital Studio"에 구현하여 즉각적인 공간 시뮬레이션을 통하여 실제 시공 전에 문제점들을 검토 및 보완하고 전체적으로는 생산성 향상과 설계 과정 중 오류를 최소화하기 위한 VR시뮬레이션 시스템의 제안 및 Viewer 모듈을 개발 하였다.

In this research we present a method to reconstruct the casting flow simulation result as a 3D model and visualize it on a VR display. First, numerical analysis of heat flow is performed using an existing commercial CAE simulation software. In this process the shape of the original design model is approximated to a regular rectangular grid. The filling ratio and temperature of each voxel are recorded iteratively by predefined number of steps starting from pouring the melted metal into a mold until it is entirely filled. Next we reconstruct the casting by voxels using the simulation result as an input. The color of voxel is determined by mapping the colors to temperature and filling ratio at each step as the flow proceeds. The reconstructed model is visualized on the Projection Table which is one of horizontal-type VR display. It provides active stereoscopic images.

Traditionally, three dimension model s have been used for building virtual worlds, and a data structure called the "scene graph" is often employed to organize these 3D objects in the virtual space. On the other hand, image-based rendering has recently been suggested as a probable alternative VR platform for its photo-realism, however, due to limited interactivity. it has only been used for simple navigation systems. To combine the merits of these two approaches to object/scene representations, this paper proposes for a scene graph structure in which both 3D models and various image-based scenes/objects can be defined. traversed, and rendered together. In fact, as suggested by Shade et al. [1]. these different representations can be used as different LOD's for a given object. For in stance, an object might be rendered using a 3D model at close range, a billboard at an intermediate range. and as part of an environment map at far range. The ultimate objective of this mixed platform is to breath more interactivity into the image based rendered VE's by employing 3D models as well. There are several technical challenges in devising such a platform : designing scene graph nodes for various types of image based techniques, establishing criteria for LOD/representation selection. handling their transition s. implementing appropriate interaction schemes. and correctly rendering the overall scene. Currently, we have extended the scene graph structure of the Sense8's WorldToolKit. to accommodate new node types for environment maps. billboards, moving textures and sprites, "Tour-into-the-Picture" structure, and view interpolated objects. As for choosing the right LOD level, the usual viewing distance and image space criteria are used, however, the switching between the image and 3D model occurs at a distance from the user where the user starts to perceive the object's internal depth. Also. during interaction, regardless of the viewing distance. a 3D representation would be used, if it exists. Finally. we carried out experiments to verify the theoretical derivation of the switching rule and obtained positive results.

In these days, a vehicle simulator is developed by using a VR(Virtual Reality) system. A VR system must provide a vehicle simulator with a natural interaction, a sufficient immersion and realistic images. To achieve this, it is important to provide a fast and uniform rendering performance regardless of the complexity of virtual worlds or the level of simulation. In this paper, modeling methods which offer an improved rendering performance for complex VR applications as 3D road model have been implemented and verified. The key idea of the methods is to reduce a load of VR system by means of LOD(Level of Detail), alpha blending texture mapping, texture mip-mapping and bilboard. Hence, in 3D road model where a simulation is complex or a scene is very large, the methods can provide uniform and acceptable frame rates. The VR system which is constructed with the methods has been experimented under the various application environments. It is confirmed that the proposed methods are effective and adequate to the VR system which associates with a vehicle simulator.

The development of computer graphics leads to high value-added products, such as film, game contents, 3D animation. In realistic animation, it is impossible and inefficient to produce the movement of each objects as handwork to display the various behaviors of a lot of characters. So we need the techniques of the crowd animation which presents the movement of objects realistically and efficiently by calculating automatically. In this paper, we designed a modeler which generates the attitudes of objects in crowd behavior animation using information of 3D models. We developed an animation system for crowd behavior which was applied for animation, VR, or games.

The ship's signal sound dispersed by air, obstacles, and noises due to absorption, reflection, and disturbances, respectively. It is one of the factors of marine casualties by misjudgment if receiving direction The last target of this study is to prevent inherent marine casualty using the analysis-evaluation techniques if the interferences of ship's signal sound. In this work, three-dimensional sound field control model is proposed to simulate various sound transmitting characteristics according to sea environments at sea The efficiency test of the model was carried out using VR-based ship simulator.
