한반도는 화산 재해로부터 안전한 지역으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 최근 백두산 및 일본 화산들을 포함한 극동아시아의 화산 관측동향 및 연구결과들은 더 이상 한반도가 화산 재해로부터 안전한 지역이 아님을 나타내고 있다. 대한민국 정부는 2012년부터 효율적인 화산재해 대응체계 구축을 위해 IT 기반의 화산재해대응시스템(VDRS: Volcanic Disaster Response System)구축기술을 개발해 왔다. VDRS의 주요 사용자는 대한민국 중앙 및 지방정부 공무원들이나 이들 대부분은 화산재해를 경험해 보지 못하였으며, 기본적 지식도 부족하다. 따라서 실제 재난 시, 효과적인 VDRS의 사용 및 재난대응을 위해서는 재해 대응과 관련된 교육 콘텐츠의 개발과 교육의 실시가 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 현실감 있는 화산재해 대응 교육을 위한 가상현실(VR; Virtual Reality) 기반의 모바일 앱 개발을 다루고 있다. 교육의 목적은 화산재해 관련 지식의 전달과 체험이다. 첫째, 공간정보 기반의 VR 콘텐츠를 제작한다. VR 콘텐츠를 제작을 위해서는 수치표고모형 기반 3D 모델이 구축되고, 기상효과 및 다양한 화산재해 확산 가시화 모델이 개발된다. 둘째, 화산재해 대응을 위한 교육앱이 개발된다. 이 단계에서 우리는 12단계의 화산재해 체험 스토리 보드를 제안한다. 앱은 스토리 보드를 기반으로 Unity3D 엔진을 이용하여 개발되며 다양한 화산재해(화산재, 화쇄류, 화산이류 등)를 체험하고 이들에 대한 지식을 전달할 수 있도록 구성된다. 본 연구의 결과는 화산재해 대응 및 예방을 위한 교육에 활용될 수 있을 것이며 향후, 증강현실 기술과 연계한다면 보다 현실감 있는 교육에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

VR and AR are widely used in many applications to provide more immersive visualization and natural interaction for learning and experiencing virtual but realistic tasks. Energy saving is considered as one of the most important issues throughout the world in order to overcome global warming and energy crisis. In particular, the awareness of home energy saving is regarded as a first step to deal with this issue. In this paper, we suggest a new learning environment using virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) for home energy saving experience. In particular, it presents a comparative study of the user experience in home energy awareness using immersive virtual reality and mobile augmented reality. The first person user experience using immersive VR wearing head mounted display (HMD) and the third person user experience using mobile AR are implemented and systematically compared with each other in terms of the learning effect of energy saving and qualitative usability. Implementation results will be given to show the advantage and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Eight out of the top ten the largest technology companies in the world are involved in some way with the coming mobile VR revolution since Facebook acquired Oculus. This trend has allowed the technology related with mobile VR to achieve remarkable growth in both academic and industry. Therefore, the importance of reproducing the acoustic expression for users to experience more realistic is increasing because auditory cues can enhance the perception of the complicated surrounding environment without the visual system in VR. This paper presents a audio downmixing system for auralization based on hardware, a stage of sound rendering pipelines that can reproduce realiy-like sound but requires high computation costs. The proposed system is verified through an FPGA platform with the special focus on hardware architectural designs for low power and real-time. The results show that the proposed system on an FPGA can downmix maximum 5 sources in real-time rate (52 FPS), with 382 mW low power consumptions. Furthermore, the generated 3D sound with the proposed system was verified with satisfactory results of sound quality via the user evaluation.

As Internet services have spread centering on mobiles, diverse services used in everyday life have become mobile services. For humans, residential spaces have significant implications as physical and psychological environments. Therefore, being provided with accurate information on the room that must be sought to find out the residential space wanted by the user can be said to be an important element of real estate apps. However, when buying real estate, people prefer searching for information using mobiles and verifying the information by visiting the real estate firsthand due to increases in damage due to false offerings. This way approaches as inconvenience in cases where the buyer lives far away or if the conditions are not suitable. Therefore, in the present study, a 'room finding application using VR' was designed and implemented using virtual reality (VR) used for diverse purposes. VR is a technology that provides the user with the sense of presence as if the user is actually present in the space. It was used in the present study as a means to provide more accurate information. The use of the application designed and implemented in the present study is expected to reduce false offerings information at least slightly so that users can be provided with more accurate information on the real estate of interest.

Electronic commerce (E-commerce) using virtual reality (VR) has the advantage of being able to purchase products without restrictions of time and location by overcoming the limitations of existing offline transactions. It is still a rudimentary but fast growing technology, and the use of E-commerce in VR is expanding. The barriers that consumers might face in utilizing E-commerce in VR is the relevance to Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) technology. Fundamentally, it requires Internet access and use through PCs or mobile devices such as smart phones. Because unlike off-line markets, it is difficult to determine the purchase patterns of customers, customer purchasing behavior analysis must be done using computer access records. In order to expand and develop E-commerce in VR in the future, learning ability should be improved through combining with artificial neural network by deep learning that is recently in the spotlight, and the ability to overcome errors need to be improved to enable use in various fields.

In the era of COVID-19 and advanced ICT technology, retail technologies such as those that use virtual reality(VR) have been drawing significant attention in the fashion industry. This study investigated the impact of shopping motivation and telepresence on consumer attitude, trust, and behavioral intentions in VR fitting room application environments. An online survey was conducted on female consumers in their 20s and 30s after exploring a VR fitting room application. Overall, 225 responses were used for the analysis. The study demonstrated that usefulness had a significant effect on attitude toward product (ATP) and trust toward app (TTA), while enjoyment had a significant effect on ATP, but did not significantly affect TTA. Telepresence did not significantly affect TTA, but had a significant influence on ATP and behavioral intention. TTA had a significant influence on ATP, and both ATP and TTA had significant effects on behavioral intention. Moreover, the effects of usefulness, enjoyment, and telepresence on ATP, TTA, and behavioral intention were significant, as the self-congruity between consumers and avatars increased. The application of the motivation theory and technology acceptance model offers theoretical perspectives for understanding VR fitting room application users' attitudinal and behavioral responses in mobile shopping environments. In addition, this study provides practical implications to mobile retailers that utilize advanced technologies.

Recently, with the development of mobile computing power, mobile-based VR and AR services are being developed. Due to network performance and computing power constraints, VR and AR services using large-capacity 3D content have limitations. A study on an efficient 3D content load method for a mobile device is required. The conventional method downloads all 3D content used for AR services at the same time. In this paper, we propose an active 3D content load according to the user's track. The proposed method is a partitioned 3D object load. Edge servers were installed for each area and connected through the MESH network. Partitioned load the required 3D object in the area referring to the user's location. The location is identified through the edge server information of the connected AP. The performance of the proposed method and the conventional method was compared. As a result of the comparison, the proposed method showed a stable Mobile AR Service. The results of this study, it is expected to contribute to the activation of edge server-based AR mobile services.
