비행시뮬레이터는 ICT 및 SW 응용분야에 속하는 기술로 항공기의 환경을 재현하는 시뮬레이션 환경을 제공한다. 시뮬레이터의 조종 장치인 일반적인 조이스틱을 대체한 기존 VR장비의 컨트롤러는 허공에 들고 조종하므로 정확하고 정교한 실제 항공기 조종에 사용하기에는 많은 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 비행시뮬레이터와 VR분야에서 사용될 수 있는 가속도 센서와 진동 센서를 적용한 3D 조이스틱을 제안한다. 이를 위하여 3축 센싱과 정보를 표시하는 디스플레이 및 와이파이 통신을 위한 보드를 설계하고 유니티 기반의 가상 환경을 구현하여 적용 가능성을 확인하였다. 정상적으로 통신 인터페이스를 통하여 조종 장치가 동작하였고 게임 및 구현된 보드에서 확인한 센싱값이 일치함을 확인하였다. 연구의 결과물은 비행시뮬레이터 외에도 VR 및 다양한 메타버스 관련 콘텐츠에 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.

본 논문에서는 1인칭 시점 VR 게임 콘텐츠를 개발하였고, 멀티플레이를 구현할 때, 가상현실 세계에서 플레이어들끼리 대면했을 때 서로의 캐릭터가 폰 콘트롤러라는 이름의 팔만 보이는 외형을 띠고 있다. 게임에서 시각적인 부분을 간과할 수 없기에 멀티플레이 시 서로의 캐릭터가 보일 수 있도록 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 3인칭 캐릭터를 이용해서 만든 캐릭터는 인간과 같은 외형의 스켈레톤을 사용하면 원하는 캐릭터를 사용할 수 있다. 3인칭 캐릭터의 양팔의 트랜스폼 값을 언리얼엔진4의 라이브러리인 패브릭 노드를 이용하여 모션 콘트롤러와 매핑을 시키는 방식으로 접근하였다. 이를 통해 좀더 플레이시 실감이 가능한 게임 제어기법을 적용할 수 있다.

Serious games based on VR(Virtual Reality) and motion recognition technologies have been studied in physical therapy and have shown significant positive effects. These existing systems have focused on measuring performance for the general public rather than patients which need rehabilitation. In the paper, We propose a serious game of self-rehabilitation that measures the patient's current physical state to generate appropriate difficulty levels to aid patients with shoulder injury.

본 논문에서는 게임 개발 플랫폼인 언리얼 엔진 4을 사용하여 가상현실기술을 활용한 복싱 게임을 개발하였다. 복싱 게임을 더욱 실감나게 즐길 수 있도록 하기 위해 양 손에 부착한 VIVE 트래커로 복싱 동작을 모션 트래킹하여 아바타를 제어하였다. 게임 모드의 경우 연습모드와 스파링모드로 구성하였다. 연습모드에서 튜토리얼을 진행하여 게임플레이를 익힌 후 스파링모드에서 AI와 복싱 대결을 하도록 구현하였다. 스파링모드는 AI와 플레이어가 대결을 하며 먼저 체력을 소모시키면 승리하게 된다. 그리고 AI 캐릭터의 애니메이션 재생 속도에 따라 4가지 난이도를 설정할 수 있다. 가상현실 복싱게임은 VR기술을 이용하여 가정에서 간편하게 복싱 운동을 즐길 수 있으며, 더 많은 VIVE 트래커를 활용하면 정밀한 모션 트래킹이 가능하여 현실감을 높일 수 있다.

Despite a rapid market growth in VR, cyber sickness has become the most serious problem in terms of user experience. The aim of this study is to verify whether there are differences in user's perception of cyber sickness by the point-of-view and the movement in VR contents. An experimental testing of game playing with VR headset was conducted on the effects of two conditions: first-person and third-person views in the point-of-view condition, and yaw - pitch rotations in the head movement condition. The results showed that cyber sickness worsened in the first-person point-of-view and in the yaw rotation movement. Point-of-view and movement had main effects on the cyber sickness, but an interaction effect between point-of-view and movement was not found. Based on the findings, along with reducing VR sickness, we proposed practical implications for VR contents planning for building balanced VR user experience. Positive VR experience can be reinforced through visual design, multi-modal interface design, and experience marketing for the optimal level of contents immersion. A future research was suggested on the roll rotation for diverse content genre development.

The needs for reusable 3D visualization tool has been being raised in various industries. Especially in the defense modeling and simulation (M&S) domain, there are abundant researches about reusable and interoperable visualization system, since it has a critical role to the efficient decision making by offering diverse validation and analyzing processes. To facilitate the effectiveness, states-of-the-arts M&S systems are applying VR (Virtual Reality) or AR (Augmented Reality) technologies. To reduce the work burden authors design a collaborative visualization environment based on a commercial game engine Unity3D. We define the requirements of the warfare simulation by analyzing pros and cons of existing tools and engines such as SIMDIS or Vega, and apply functionalities of the commercial game engine to satisfy the requirements. A prototype has been implemented as the collaborative visualization environment of iCAVE at KAIST, which is a facility for immersive virtual environment. The facility is intraoperative with smart devices.

The purpose of Serious games in immersive Metaverse platform to provide users both fun and intriguing learning experiences. We proposes a serious game for self-trainable fire evacuation drill with collaboration among avatars synchronized with multiple trainees and optionally with real-time supervising placed at different remote physical locations. The proposed system architecture is composed of wearable motion sensors and a Head Mounted Display to synchronize each user's intended motions to her/his avatar activities in a cyberspace in Metaverse environment. The proposed system provides immersive as well as inexpensive environments for easy-to-use user interface for cyber experience-based fire evacuation training system. The proposed configuration of the user-avatar interface, the collaborative learning environment, and the evaluation system on the VR serious game are expected to be applied to other serious games. The game was implemented only for the predefined fire scenario for buildings, but the platform can extend its configuration for various disaster situations that may happen to the public.

In this paper, we use VR technologies including touch processing technologies and haptic devices to offer touch of fish objects to users. The Omni, a kind of haptic device and made by Sensable Inc., is used to implement multi touch model in VR space. In addition, Matlab/Simulink and proSENSE Virtual Touch Toolbox of Handshake Inc., are used as programing tools. Functions needed to describe the movement of x, y, and z axis respectively are applied to delineate the natural movement of fish objects modeled with 3D. Such movements offer realistic physical interactions to two users controlling multi point respectively. In experiment, to perceive the appearance of 3D object by touch and to feel the respiration by touch are well conducted. We also verify that it is possible to develop games or contents through multi participation in VR Space by using multi point.

This paper investigates the possibility of exploiting haptic force-feedback technology for interacting with Nanta music. We use VR technologies including touch processing technologies and haptic devices to offer touch of cylinder objects and cup object to users. Haptic device is used to implement touch model in VR space. Matlab/Simulink and proSENCE Virtual Touch Toolbox of Handshake Inc. for experiment, are used as programing tools. Function needed to describe the movement of x, y, and z axis respectively are applied to delineate the natural movement of water in cup object modeled with 3D. A certain amount of water in cup object has the difference of sounds. In experiment, to perceive the appearance of 3D object by touch and to feel the tactile by touch are conducted with the effect of sound on Haptic perception. We also verify that it is possible to develop games or contents in VR space by using point.
