In this paper, we propose a synchronized playback method of 3D reference model and video by extracting golf swing information from learner's golf video to precisely compare and analyze each motion in each position and time in the golf swing, and present the implementation result. In order to synchronize the 3D model with the learner's swing video, the learner's golf swing movie is first photographed and relative time information is extracted from the photographed video according to the position of the golf club from the address posture to the finishing posture. Through applying time information from learners' swing video to a 3D reference model that rigs the motion information of a pro-golfer's captured swing motion at 120 frames per second through high-quality motion capture equipment into a 3D model and by synchronizing the 3D reference model with the learner's swing video, the learner can correct or learn his / her posture by precisely comparing his or her posture with the reference model at each position of the golf swing. Synchronized playback can be used to improve the functionality of manually adjusting system for comparing and analyzing the reference model and learner's golf swing. Except for the part where the image processing technology that detects each position of the golf posture is applied, It is expected that the method of automatically extracting the time information of each location from the video and of synchronized playback can be extended to general life sports field.

The Solar and Space Weather Research Group (SOS) in Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) is constructing the Space Weather Prediction Center since 2007. As a part of the project, we are developing automatic real-time system of the global 3-D magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulation. The MHD simulation model of earth's magnetosphere is designed as modified leap-frog scheme by T. Ogino, and it was parallelized by using message passing interface (MPI). Our work focuses on the automatic processing about simulation of 3-D MHD model and visualization of the simulation results. We used PC cluster to compute, and virtual reality modeling language (VRML) file format to visualize the MHD simulation. The system can show the variation of earth's magnetosphere by the solar wind in quasi real time. For data assimilation we used four parameters from ACE data; density, pressure, velocity of solar wind, and z component of interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). In this paper, we performed some initial tests and made a animation. The automatic real-time system will be valuable tool to understand the configuration of the solar-terrestrial environment for space weather research.

최근 인터넷 상의 3D 게임이나 가상 세계 등의 증가로 3차원 애니메이션에 대한 필요성이 고조되고 있다. 하지만 상당한 메모리와 전송 시간 및 데이터 전송, 처리에 대한 문제가 해결돼야 한다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 새롭고 효율적인 3차원 애니메이션 부호화 기술 개발이 필요하다. 현재, MPEG-4는 BIFS와 FBA에 기반하여 애니메이션 애플리케이션들의 다양한 변형들을 구현할 수 있다. BIFS는 인터폴레이터, 스크립트, 센서 노드들 같은 몇 가지 애니메이션 노드들을 지원한다. 그리고 FBA는 인간 모형에 흡사한 객체를 생성하고 움직임을 주는데 유용하게 쓰이는 애니메이션 방법이다. 이 방법들 중 본 논문은 FBA 애니메이션을 VRML 2.0을 사용하여 구현하였고, 이 FBA 객체의 구성과 특징을 관찰하여 FBA 객체의 움직임을 생성하는데 필요한 데이터들을 압축해 데이터양을 줄이는 알고리즘을 구현하였다.

We all know *.x file is a bridge of the 3D model developer and the game developer. In today's 3D game programming, more and more advanced hardware support it to run, but we still need to consider the methods to generate the animations. 3D model maker is tired of rectifying the skeletal animations. If he mistakes one point in some one animation, this will lead to distortion in *.x file. Then the modification consumes long time. So finding a good blending method is the best choice for generating multiple skeletal animations. There were some methods for animations blending. In this paper, we could use 3D max or Maya to blend animations; and we could use *.x file and blend animations in coding. And we will use 3D max 8.0 to export the *.x file and present a better way to combine skeletal animations.

Thanks to the advancement of the related technologies and equipment, today's video contents like movies, animations and soap operas are rapidly expanding their expressible cinematic imagination area. In order to fulfill the elevated visual expectations of audiences and realize exciting storytelling and fantastic world, the fusion of different techniques is actively used, and the reality for visual effects and image synthesis is increasing more and more. Accordingly, recent VFX-oriented movies using CG have a much more complicated production process than before. Therefore, the importance of Pre-visualization, aka Pre-vis is becoming bigger in the planning process for sophisticated design. Pre-vis means that the advance visualization for stories or directing ideas in the planning process before starting production of movies or animations. 3D animated Pre-visualization realizing directors' abstract and ambiguous ideas in 3 dimensional environment in advance is, as a powerful means for visual storytelling, briskly used focusing on the VFX film industry on which the present CG is broadly used, and the role of Pre-vis throughout productions has increased compared to the past. The studies, however, on the role and utility of Pre-vis are not enough. Therefore, this study was conducted on the role of Pre-vis used for present VFX movie productions using the examples of 3D animated Pre-visualization production in which the researcher of this study participated. In this study, the role of the Pre-vis that is subdivided presently, is divided into and 3D animatics and their each role is analyzed with the example images. Through this, the characteristics that Pre-vis should have are clarified and the concept of the advantages and utility led by the use of Pre-vis in productions is strengthened. The goal of this study is to induce active uses of Pre-vis throughout productions after forming consensus about the various roles of Pre-vis and their utility.

First of all, What was the modeling technique used to model 3D-Game character? It's a technique developed along several years, by experience... here is the bases Low polygons characters I always work in low polygon for two reasons -You can easily modify a low-poly character, change shapes, make morph for facial expressions etc -You can easily animate a low-poly character When the modeling is finished, Second, In these days, Computer hardware technologies have been bring about that expansion of various 3D digital motion pictured information and development. 3D digital techniques can be used to be diversity in Animation, Virtual-Reality, Movie, Advertisement, Game and so on. Besides, as computing power has been better and higher, the development of 3D Animations and Character are required gradually. In order to satisfy the requirement, Research about how to make 3D Game modeling that represents Character's emotions, sensibilities, is beginning to set its appearance. 3D characters in 3D Games are the core for the communications of emotion and the informations through their facial expression and characteristic motions, Sounds to Users. All concerning about 3D motion and facial expression are getting higher with extension of frequency in use. Therefore, in this study we suggest the effective method of modeling for 3D character and which are based on 2D Graphics.

ZSphere of ZBrush can be added to the canvas, and most of all, added to the existing ZSphere as mobile geometrical objects. For example, arms can be produced out of the globoid in the progress of an intermediate step. characters with multiple limbs can be produced easily in this way. With Zsphere, several Child Spheres can be produced out of single Sphere, then these can be parents spheres, and can connect other Child Spheres. In this paper, by making each form through these processes, 3D characters were modeled to shape easily and rapidly. Since 3D objects can be added, rotated, and moved, they can interact smoothly with Z-depth of campus. To place these objects on the screen, paint, build fixed perspective image, smerge pixols and transform 3D objects, diverse transforming tools and sculpturing tools were used. The characters were designed in the way that first, the finished 3D characters were transformed into poly, then each side was restructured rapidly with Topology.

The analysis of menu preference by different users is one of the important issues in mobile interface design. Current mobile phones do not provide any functionalities to customize the user interface based on use history after they are released by manufacturers or mobile carriers. Though a number of functions are loaded into mobile devices, all the menus are uniformly presented to users regardless of menu preference, and it becomes a reason to decrease the usability of mobile interface. To improve this limitation, this paper suggests how to apply 3D visualization methods to mobile interface, depending on menu use history. In addition, for performance evaluation, 3D mobile interface system was implemented using 3D visualization methods such as depth, transparency, and animation. Finally, experiments for performance evaluation were performed in order to measure and compare menu search times.
