  • 이 논문에서는 변형 가능한 햅틱 컨트롤러와 포스 피드백 장치를 이용한 치과 수술 시뮬레이션 시스템을 제안한다. 이 시스템은 가상 환경에서 매복 사랑니 발치 수술을 수행하도록 설계되었다. 햅틱 하드웨어들은 신체와 수술도구의 상대적 위치를 계산하여 충돌여부를 파악하고 저항감과 진동감을 제공한다. 특히 길이 변화, 굽힘 발생과 같은 변형이 가능한 햅틱 컨트롤러는 사용하는 수술도구에 따라 느껴지는 촉감을 표현할 수 있다. 정교한 3 차원 모델로 구강내부와 치과용 수술도구를 표현한 후 햅틱 컨트롤러의 움직임과 버튼 클릭 등의 입력 값을 전달하는 모듈을 통해 가상 객체와 상호 작용하고 이에 대한 햅틱 피드백을 컨트롤러로 전달하여 사용자에게 현실적인 수술 경험을 제공한다.

  • In this paper, authors propose the sensor fusion system that can recognize multiple 3D objects from 2D projection images and tactile information. The proposed system focuses on improving recognition performance of 3D object. Unlike the conventional object recognition system that uses image sensor alone, the proposed method uses tactual sensors in addition to visual sensor. Neural network is used to fuse these informations. Tactual signals are obtained from the reaction force by the pressure sensors at the fingertips when unknown objects are grasped by four-fingered robot hand. The experiment evaluates the recognition rate and the number of teaming iterations of various objects. The merits of the proposed systems are not only the high performance of the learning ability but also the reliability of the system with tactual information for recognizing various objects even though visual information has a defect. The experimental results show that the proposed system can improve recognition rate and reduce learning time. These results verify the effectiveness of the proposed sensor fusion system as recognition scheme of 3D object.

  • This study examined the drivers' acceptance level of various active safety features with Korean drivers on Seoul urban and city roads. The test vehicle, 2013 Cadillac ATS, was equipped with FCA(Forward Collision Alert), LDW(Lane Departure Warning), SBZA(Side Blind Zone Alert), FRPA(Front/Rear Park Assist), RCTA(Rear Cross Traffic Alert), ACC(Adaptive Cruise Control), and AEB(Autonomous Emergency Braking). Participants had chances to run the tests on those systems in the parking lot accompanied by the 106km long stretch of predetermined route including local road and interurban highway in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do under normal traffic flowing environment. After the test, participants completed a series of questionnaires about the features they experienced. The results revealed that RCTA and SBZA systems received more favourable ratings compared to the other features in avoiding crashes. The respondents preferred sound alerts to haptic ones even though haptic warning methods were better in providing directional information.

  • The rapid growth of virtual reality technology in the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution has accelerated scientification of combat training systems in addition to ICT(information and communications technology) in military field. Recently, research and development of simulators based on virtual reality have been actively conducted in order to solve sensitive issues such as increase of civil complaints due to the noise of a shooting range, prevention of shooting accident, and reduction of training cost. In this paper, we propose two key solutions: spatial synchronization method and modified point mass trajectory model with small angle approximation to overcome technical limitations of a current training simulator. A trainee who wears a haptic vest in a mixed reality environment built in MARS(medium-range assault rifle shooting simulator) is able to conduct not only precision shooting but also two-way engagement with virtual opponents. It is possible for trainee to receive more reliable evaluations in the MARS than an existing rifle simulator based on laser.

  • 현대 그래픽스 장치의 발전은 수년전까지 Pre-Rendered 방식을 사용해서 볼 수 있었던 영상들을 Real-Time Rendering을 통해 실시간으로 인터렉티브하게 제공하고 있다. 이러한 장치의 발전은 게임, 시뮬레이션, 미디어 아트 등의 많은 분야에서 변화를 불러 일으켰으며, 앞으로도 많은 변화를 촉진시킬 것이다. 이러한 변화 중 하나로 기존까지 실시간으로 영상을 생성하기 힘들었던 분야 중의 하나인 미술 기법들의 실시간 재생이 가능해졌다. 본 논문은 미술 기법 중 판화기법과 탁본기법을 가상의 환경에서 모사할 수 있는 어플리케이션인 Virtual Engraving과 Virtual Frottage를 제안한다. Virtual Engraving은 3차원 공간상의 가상의 물체에 대해 3차원 입출력장치와 Bump Mapping을 이용하여 조각행위에 대한 경험을 사용자에게 제공하며, Virtual Frottage는 탁본의 대상을 영상으로 받아들여 영상 처리 기법과 Pixel Shader를 통한 렌더링을 통하여 사용자에게 흥미로운 프로타주 기법의 경험을 제공한다. 두 어플리케이션 모두 시각적인 정보를 통해 사용자에게 미술 기법의 경험을 제공하며, Virtual Engraving의 경우 3차원 입출력장치를 통해 촉각적인 정보를 제공하였고 Virtual Frottage 역시 촉각 피드백을 제공할 수 있도록 연구 중이다. 이러한 미술 기법의 모사 연구는 사용자에게 보다 더 실감적인 경험뿐만 아니라 실 공간에서는 가능하지 않은 여러 효과를 제공할 수 있다.

  • Sound effects coming with appropriate tactile stimuli can strengthen its reality. For example, gunfire in games and movies, if it is accompanied by vibrating effects, can enhance the impressiveness. On a similar principle, adding the vibration information to existing sound data file and playing sound while generating vibration effects through haptic interfaces can augment the sound experience. In this paper, we propose a method to generate vibration information by analyzing the sound. The vibration information consists of vibration patterns and the timing within a sound file. Adding the vibration information is labor-intensive if it is done manually. We propose a sound detection algorithm to search the moments when specific sounds occur in a sound file and a method to create vibration effects at those moments. The sound detection algorithm compares the frequency characteristic of specific sounds and finds the moments which have similar frequency characteristic within a sound file. The detection ratio of the algorithm was 98% for five different kinds of gunfire. We also develop a GUI based vibrating pattern editor to easily perform the sound search and vibration generation.

  • This study is focused to find the ways to improve the effective BIM introduction plan on school building construction by Delphi Technique. For this, the questionnaire is made by in-depth interviews of 10 BIM specialists, the survey of other 30 experts was carried out. The results of 30 experts Delphi survey are as followed. (1) The haptic effect of BIM introduction is very rare as lack of awareness and information on BIM. (2) Problems are arising from deficiency of training and experience on BIM. (3) Practical utilizations of BIM are very useful. (4) Barriers of the spread of BIM are high cost and insufficient environments. (5) The development potential of BIM is high. In order to activate the BIM market, the introduction of an accurate evaluation criteria and rational cost calculation standard are needed.

  • In this paper, we have proposed a realization method of tactile sense of virtual objects using multi-layer Neural Networks(NN). Inputs of the NN are position data of non-rigid objects and outputs of the NN are forces at that time and point. First, the position and forte data are measured from non-rigid objects (a sponge and a balloon) using two PHANToMS, one as a master and the other as a slave manipulator, then the data are used to train a multi-layer Neural Networks whose inputs and outputs are designed to represent tactile information. The trained Neural Networks is used to regenerate the tactile sense on the virtual objects graphically made by a computer, and one can feel a quite similar sense of touch by using the system while touching the virtual objects.

  • Despite the effort for affording hearing handicapped persons facility for living, the investigation of assistive devices which recognize the out of sight circumstance has been studied insignificantly. In this paper, a novel acoustic-aware system is suggested to forward the sudden noise occured by the appearance of a new context to a hearing-impaired persons.

  • 본 연구에서는 실제 기증받은 시체를 이용하여 인체의 각 구조물을 실제 모습 그대로 3D 이미지화하는 과정에 대해 알아보았다. 인체의 구조물을 3D 로 이미지화하는 과정은 다음과 같다. 먼저 시체를 0.2mm 간격으로 절단하여 절단면의 사진을 찍은 후, 각 절단면의 사진에서 각각의 구조물을 구역화하여 색칠을 한 후, 구역화한 이미지에서 외곽선을 추출하여 벡터 이미지를 만든다. 이 외곽선을 1mm 간격으로 쌓아 올린 후 그 표면을 재구성하여 3D 이미지로 변환하는 과정으로 진행되었다. 3D 이미지의 제작은 가슴 부위에 한정하여 이루어졌다. 인체의 해부학적인 모형을 3D 이미지로 시각화함으로써 얻는 효과는 일반인을 대상으로 인체의 내부에 대한 시각적인 호기심을 충족시켜주고 의학 상식을 넓히는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것 이다. 또한 의대생들을 비롯한 의학 전문가들에게는 생생한 해부학 강의용으로도 활용 가능하다. 향후 Haptic 시스템을 이용한 의료 실습 어플리케이션과 접목될 수도 있을것이고, fMRI 데이터를 비롯한 타 데이터와의 융합을 통해 시각화하여 서비스 할 수도 있다. 이처럼 인체의 3D 모형은 의료분야에서 광범위하게 활용될 수 있는 데이터로써 그 가치를 지닐 것이다.
