영상 기반 엔더링은 장면을 3차원 기하 모델로 구축할 필요없이 실사 영상만을 이용하여 빠른 속도로 사실감 높은 결과 영상을 렌더링 할 수 있는 기법이다. 특히, '그림 속으로의 여행(Tour into the Picture: TIP)' 기법은 3차원 배경을 매우 간단히 구축할 수 있어 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 기존 TIP 기법은 영상 촬영 지점을 많이 벗어나면 원거리 지형 정보 부족으로 인해 시점 이동 범위에 한계가 있다. 이점을 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 다수의 TIP 영상을 합성하여 넓은 가상환경을 구축하는 방법을 개발하였다. 제안된 방법은 먼저, 다수의 시점에서 각각 TIP 모델을 구축하고, TIP 모델을 구성하는 전경 물체와 배경 물체를 각각 보간하여 렌더링 함으로써 부드러운 네비게이션 영상을 얻었다. 본 연구는 게임, 차량용 네비게이션 등 다양한 산업 분야에 응용될 수 있다.

최근 VR(Virtual Reality)에 대한 사람들의 관심이 높아짐에 따라 주변기기 또한 많은 발전이 이루어졌다. VR 환경에서 그 환경내의 사물과 인터랙션 할 수 있는 여러 인터페이스 장치와 룸 단위의 스캐닝을 통한 VR 환경 구성까지 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 현재 VR의 동향을 보았을 때 가정에서의 VR 활용법은 여러 햅틱 인터페이스를 이용하여 VR 환경 내에 구성된 사물들과 인터랙션 하는 것이 많으며 룸 스캐닝을 이용한 방법으로 공간상의 제약을 어느 정도 벗어나기도 하며, 트레킹 장비를 이용하여 실제 사물들과의 인터랙션을 하기도 한다. 3D 프린터의 발전으로 상업용 3D 프린터와 가정용 3D 프린터의 보급이 활성화 되었으며, 3D 프린팅 업체 또는 가정에서 쉽게 3D 프린터를 통해 자신이 원하는 모형을 만들 수 있게 되었다. 위 두 가지를 고려하였을 때 VR 환경에서 사람들이 쉽게 만들 수 있는 모형을 가지고 직접 인터랙션을 할 때 사람들이 느끼는 모형의 물체감과 VR 환경상에서 구성된 모형의 물체감 사이의 차이점에 대한 연구가 필요하다고 느껴진다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 3D 프린터로 제작한 사물을 VR 공간 내에 구현하고 실제로 구현된 그 사물과의 사용자 테스트를 통해 실제 사물과 인터랙션 할 때와 다른 일반 인터랙션 장비를 사용할 때의 차이에 대한 연구를 하고자 한다.

As mobile augmented reality technologies are spreading these days, many users want to produce augmented reality (AR) contents what they need by themselves. To keep pace with such needs, we have developed a mobile AR contents builder (hereafter referred to as MARB) that enables the user to easily connect a natural marker and a virtual object with various interaction events that are used to manipulate the virtual object in a mobile environment so that users can simply produce an AR content using natural photos and virtual objects that they select. MARB consists of five major modules-target manger, virtual object manager, AR accessory manager, AR content manager, and AR viewer. The target manager, virtual object manager and AR accessory manager register and manage natural target markers, various virtual objects and content accessories (such as various decorating images), respectively. The AR content manger defines a connection between a target and a virtual object with enabling various interactions for the desired functions such as translation/rotation/scaling of the virtual object, playing of a music, etc. AR viewer augments various virtual objects (such as 2D images, 3D models and video clips) on the pertinent target. MARB has been developed in a mobile application (app) format in order to create AR contents simply using mobile smart devices without switching to a PC environment for authoring the content. In this paper, we present the detail organizations and applications of MARB. It is expected that MARB will enable ordinary users to produce diverse mobile AR contents for various purposes with ease and contribute to expanding the mobile AR market based on spread of a variety of AR contents.

We present a method for generating 3D structures and rendering objects by combining VAE (Variational Autoencoder) and GAN (Generative Adversarial Network). This approach focuses on generating and rendering 3D models with improved quality using residual learning as the learning method for the encoder. We deep stack the encoder layers to accurately reflect the features of the image and apply residual blocks to solve the problems of deep layers to improve the encoder performance. This solves the problems of gradient vanishing and exploding, which are problems when constructing a deep neural network, and creates a 3D model of improved quality. To accurately extract image features, we construct deep layers of the encoder model and apply the residual function to learning to model with more detailed information. The generated model has more detailed voxels for more accurate representation, is rendered by adding materials and lighting, and is finally converted into a mesh model. 3D models have excellent visual quality and accuracy, making them useful in various fields such as virtual reality, game development, and metaverse.

With rapid development of graphic hardware, researches on Virtual Reality and 3D Games have received more attention than before. For more realistic 3D graphic scene, objects were to be presented with lots of polygons and the number of objects shown in a scene was remarkably increased. Therefore, for effective visualization of large polygon models like this, view-frustum culling method, that visualizes only objects shown in the screen, has been widely used. In general, the bounding boxes that include objects are generated firstly, and the boxes are intersected with view-frustum to check whether object is in the visible area or not. Recently, an algorithm that can check in-out test of objects using OpenGL's selection mode, which is originally used to select the objects in the screen, is suggested. This algorithm is fast because it can use hardware acceleration. In this study, by implementing and applying this algorithm to large polygon models, we showed the efficiency of OpenGL assisted View-Frustum Culling algorithm. If this algorithm is applied to 3D games that have to process more complicated characters and landscapes, performance improvement can be expected.

According to a survey published in an authoritative journal in January 2020, the globalincidence rate of mental illness is 8.3% for men and 10.6% for women, which indicates thatmental illness has become a globally recognized obstacle. Therefore, specific psychotherapy including mental illness will become an important research topic. It is very effective forpatients with special mental diseases, such as mental illness, to reduce their mental reaction byexposure therapy; the system uses the virtual reality system of medical images processed by learningalgorithm to reproduce the effect of virtual reality exposure method of the high scene of transparent ladder. Compared with the old invasive exposure scene, the results show that theimprovement of both conditions has obvious effect, and the effect of human treatment underthe two conditions is not good. There are obvious differences, which show that virtual reality model will gradually replace the on-the-spot feeling. Finally, with more and more researchers have put forward a variety of other virtual reality image processing models, the research of image processing has gradually become more and more interested.

This paper concerns about residential environment analysis program implementation for design and analysis on public housing complexes such that view and daylight analysis processes are automated and integrated into existing design routine to achieve better design efficiency. Considering the architectural design trends this paper chooses ArchiCAD as a platform for a CAD system, which contains the concepts such as integrated object-oriented CAD, virtual building and BIM. Residential environment analysis system consists of three components. The first component is the 3D modeling part defining 3D form information for external geographic contour models, site models and interior/exterior of apartment buildings. The second is the parametric library part handling the design parameters for view and daylight analysis. The last is the user interface for the input/output and integration of data for the environment analysis. Daylight analysis shows rendered images as well as results of daylight reports and grades per time and performs the calculations for floor shadow. It separates the site-only analysis from the analysis of site and exterior environmental parameters. View analysis considers horizontal and vertical view angles to produce view image from each unit and uses the bitmap analysis method to determine opening ratio, scenery ratio and void ratio. We could expect better performance and precision from this residential environment analysis system than the existing 2D drawing based view and daylight analysis methods and overcome the existing one-way flow of design information from 3D form to analysis reports so that site design modifications are automatically reflected on analysis results. Each part is developed in a module so that further integration and extension into other related estimation and construction management systems are made possible.

This paper proposes a method for reusing kinematic design data for virtual facilities, Making a virtual model of a facility involves two major activities: geometric design (virtual model visualization) and kinematic design that should be remodeled frequently whenever design changes occur, Conventionally, a virtual model of an automated facility focuses on the design level, which mainly deals with design verification, alternative comparison, and geometric model diagnosis, Although a design level model can be designed with the information of past models from PLM system, a simulation level model is not sufficient utilized to be reused for kinematic design purpose, We propose a method for reusing kinematic information of a past simulation model to cope with this problem, We use the concept or the 'center of mass', which is a point representing the mean position of the matter in a body or system. And we also use comparison method of a boundary box to identity which 3D objects have to be involved from the design model to a link structure that is contained in the simulation model. Because a proposed method only use not a historical approach but a geometrical approach, it is more effective to apply to the field.

Nowadays, the complexity of object tracking models among hardware applications has become a more in-demand duty to complete in various indeterminable environment tracking situations with multifunctional algorithm skills. In this paper, we propose a virtual city environment using AirSim (Aerial Informatics and Robotics Simulation - AirSim, CityEnvironment) and use the DQN (Deep Q-Learning) model of deep reinforcement learning model in the virtual environment. The proposed object tracking DQN network observes the environment using a deep reinforcement learning model that receives continuous images taken by a virtual environment simulation system as input to control the operation of a virtual drone. The deep reinforcement learning model is pre-trained using various existing continuous image sets. Since the existing various continuous image sets are image data of real environments and objects, it is implemented in 3D to track virtual environments and moving objects in them.
