Recently. we have reported that several lipoxygenases products directly activate the capsaicin-activated channel as intracellular messengers in neuron. In particular, 12-(S)-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid turned out to be the most potent endogenous VR activator. This finding prompted us to search for a novel non-vaniloid VR agonists and antagonists. We have designed and synthesized a series of non-vanilloid VR binding ligands based on the structural simllarity between 12-HPETE and capsaicin, the natural VR agonist. Our recent studies on the development of selective vanilloid receptor agonists and antagonists will be presented.

In this paper, we planned to see the positive effects of the immersive virtual environment. In particular, the positive effect of presence on physical performance was explored. A total of 25 participants were recruited for this experiment and his/her physical performance was measured by Electromyography (EMG) while they were exercising (rowing), and presence was measured by a self-reported measure. The participants were randomly assigned to experience either a) Virtual Reality (VR) or b) non-VR (2D screen) condition when they played the exergame. The result showed that 1) there was a positive relationship between representation mode and presence and 2) the higher level of presence reinforced the user's physical performance. The limitation of the study and future study were also discussed.

The best way to express space effectively on internet is to use 3D VR(Virtual Reality) contents. But it is too difficult to control the 3D VR space with the 2D device. So the content makers cannot solve this problem easily. Besides they define the UI control in their own subjective way which makes the users confused. The purpose of this study is to present the grounds for the Control UI standardization by studying the deriving improvement direction. First of all, we categorize current control UI designs for space-VR on web service by controlling method features into three Types. Next we itemize the main improvement direction that is based on our analysis. First, the UI design that maintains for a typical 2D Input Device method to help the beginner users. Secondly, the concise UI that allows users to Immerse easily in VR. Thirdly, the control level construction that satisfies both users who are skillful at 3D games and users who have little experience with these devices. In this way, we propose the most suitable control UI model that satisfies these improvement directions. We expect the result of our study to serve as an important basis for the standardization of VR services.

VR animation allows you to see 360-degree screen production that cannot be seen in existing animation production while being located in the space within the animation. <Goodbye Mr Octopus>, a VR animation produced in 2020, was selected at the 77th Venice Film Festival as an immersive short film. This is the story of an adolescent girl, Stella, who is celebrating her 16th birthday, and her conflict with her strict father is resolved through a letter from her mother. It is a narrative composed of a total of 11 scenes, and in each scene, new directing elements of VR video grammar, such as gaze induction, time flow, and space conversion directing, were analyzed. Gaze-inducing directing minimized the inconvenience of 360-degree gaze, and time and space conversion directing was analyzed as an effect of increasing the audience's immersion according to narrative events.

This research attempts to develop 4D CAD function to support optimal road design by expanding the existing 4D CAD utilization system, which focused on construction phase, to the design phase. The functions such as earthwork simulation for selecting of road alignment, alternative route simulation and structure type simulation were suggested as functions to support road design. Through those virtual reality (VR) functions, visual confirmation of the condition of route and earthwork Is possible by the developed system, and an optimal alternative route can be selected by carrying out layout simulation of the alternative route. The functions presented in this research provide the decision making tools based virtual model for efficient support to road design.

Perforated metal sheets are used as panels of facades for controlling environmental factors while ensuring user's visibility. Despite their functional potentials, only a specific direction of facades or an orientation of a building was considered in the relevant studies. This study proposed a design methodology for the perforated panel facades that reflects the location on the facades and the user's requirements. The optimization of quantitative and qualitative performance is achieved through communication between designers and users in a VR system. In optimizing quantitative performances, designers use machine learning techniques such as clustering and genetic algorithm to allocate optimal panels on the facades. In optimizing qualitative performances, through the VR system, users intervene in evaluating performances whose preferences are depending on them. The experiment using the office project showed that designers were able to make decisions based on clustering using GMM to optimize multiple quantitative performances. The gap between the target and final performance could be narrowed by limiting the types of perforated panels considering mass customization. In assessing visibility as a qualitative performance, users were able to participate in the design process using the VR system.

가상현실 (Virtual Reality, VR) 컨텐츠가 다양해지면서 사용자들의 관심도 높아지고 있다. 초기 VR 컨텐츠는 헤드 마운티드 디스플레이 (Head Mounted Display, HMD)와 컨트롤러만 사용한다. 사용자의 요구가 높아지면서 현실적인 컨텐츠 구현을 위해서 사용자의 신체 움직임으로 제어하는 풀 바디 트래킹(Full Body Tracking) 기술이 도입되고 있다. 머리에 착용하는 HMD와 양손으로 제어하는 두 개의 컨트롤러 뿐만 아니라 모션캡쳐장비, 트래커 장비를 사용자의 다양한 위치에 착용시켜, 세밀한 움직임 트래킹이 가능해졌다. 본 연구에서 서브 모션 기반의 움직임 추적 방법과 이를 기반한 서브모션 시스템을 제안한다. 서브모션 시스템은 VR 컨텐츠에 사용되는 사용하는 센서 위치를 VR캐릭터의 대응되는 위치에 출력하는 방식이 아닌, 사용자의 움직임에 따라 다양한 센서 위치 변화를 인식하고, 이를 기반으로 VR에서 사전에 지정된 모션을 인식 및 출력한다. 사용자의 움직임을 세분화하여 각각의 연속된 서브모션들로 인식하고, 각각의 서브 모션에서 연속적으로 인식 가능한 서브 모션을 분기를 통해 정의하고 인식함으로써 다양하고 자유도 높은 모션 처리가 가능하다. 선행 기술들의 문제점인 고정된 데미지 방식 및 부자연스러운 모션을 해결하고 사용자에게 실제와 같은 동작을 취하도록 유도하여 몰입감등을 부여할 수 있다. 서브 모션들을 자동적으로 생성하는 시스템을 통해 풀 바디 트래킹 VR 컨텐츠에 적용 가능한 엔진을 연구 및 개발하여 해당 산업의 발전에 이바지하고자 한다.
